First-principles study of lithium intercalated bilayer graphene

Lithium intercalated bilayer graphene has been investigated using first-principles density functional theory calculations. Results show that there exist AB and AA stacking sequences for bilayer graphene in which the latter is more favorable for the Li storage and the former will evolve into the latter with the intercalation of Li ions. The relationship between the interlayer distance of two graphene sheets and the intercalated capacity of Li ions is discussed. It is found that structural defect is identified to store Li ions more favorably than pristine bilayer graphene and an isolated C atom vacancy in bilayer graphene can capture three Li ions between two graphene sheets.

Study on spatial resolution of micromegas as a neutron detector under condition of high neutron flux and γ ray background

In this paper Micromegas has been designed to detect neutrons. The simulation of the spatial reso-lution of Micromegas as neutron detector is carried out by GEANT4 toolkit. The neutron track reconstruction method based on the time coincidence technology is employed in the present work. The influence of the flux of incident 14 MeV neutron and high gamma background on the spatial resolution is carefully studied. Our results show that the spatial resolution of the detector is sensitive to the neutron flux, but insensitive to the intensity of γ background if the neutron track reconstruction method proposed by our group is used. The γ insensitivity makes it possible for us to use the Micromegas detector under condition which has high γ-rays background.     

A prototype of a high rating MRPC

Six-gap resistive plate chamber (MRPC) prototypes with semiconductive glass electrodes (bulk resistivity～1010.cm) were studied for suitability in time-of-flight (TOF) applications at high rates. These studies were performed using a continuous electron beam of 800 MeV at IHEP and an X-ray machine. Time resolutions of about 100 ps and efficiencies larger than 90% were obtained for flux densities up to 28 kHz/cm2.     

Ferroelectric and dielectric properties of SrBi<Subscript>4</Subscript>Ti<Subscript>4</Subscript>O<Subscript>15</Subscript> thin films grown on Bi<Subscript>4</Subscript>Ti<Subscript>3</Subscript>O<Subscript>12</Subscript> film layer

Ferroelectric and dielectric properties of bilayered ferroelectric thin films, SrBi₄Ti₄O₁₅ grown on Bi₄Ti₃O₁₂, were investigated. The thin films were annealed at 700°C under oxygen atmosphere. The bilayered thin films were prepared on a Pt(111)/Ti/SiO₂/Si substrate by a chemical solution deposition method. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the bilayered thin films were 645 and 0.09, respectively, at 100 kHz. The value of remnant polarization (2P _r) measured from the ferroelectric thin film capacitors was 60.5 μC/cm² at electric field of 200 kV/cm. The remnant polarization was reduced by 22% of the initial value after 10¹⁰ switching cycles. The results showed that the ferroelectric and dielectric properties of the SrBi₄Ti₄O₁₅ on Bi₄Ti₃O₁₂ ferroelectric thin films were better than those of the SrBi₄Ti₄O₁₅ grown on a Pt-coated Si substrate suggesting that the improved properties may be due to the different nucleation and growth kinetics of SrBi₄Ti₄O₁₅ on the c-axis-oriented Bi₄Ti₃O₁₂ layer or on the Pt-coated Si substrate.     

Deterministic Bidirectional Remote State Preparation of a- and Symmetric Quantum States with a Proper Quantum Channel

We present a new scheme for deterministically realizing the mutual interchange of quantum information between two distant parties via selected quantum states as the shared entangled resource. We first show the symmetric bidirectional remote state preparation (BRSP), where two single-qubit quantum states will be simultaneously exchanged in a deterministic manner provided that each of the users performs single-qubit von Neumann measurements with proper measurement bases as well as appropriate unitary operations, depending essentially on the outcomes of the prior measurements. Then we consider to extend the symmetric protocol to an asymmetric case, in which BRSP of a general single-qubit state and an arbitrary two-qubit state is investigated successfully. The necessary quantum operations and the employed quantum resources are feasible according to the present technology, resulting in that this protocol may be realizable in the realm of current physical experiment.     

Removal of oxygen from silicon by electron beam melting

Small amounts of multicrystalline silicon were melted in an electron beam furnace in different experimental conditions in order to investigate the oxygen evaporation behavior during the electron beam melting (EBM) process. The oxygen content level before and after EBM was determined by secondary ion mass spectroscopy. The oxygen content was reduced from 6.177 to 1.629 ppmw when silicon was melted completely at 15 kW with removal efficiency up to 73.6 %. After that, it decreased continually to <0.0517 ppmw when the refining time exceeded 600 s with a removal efficiency of more than 99.08 %. During the melting process, the evaporation rate of silicon is 1.10 × 10^?5 kg/s. The loss of silicon could be reduced up to 1.7 % during oxygen removal process to a desirable figure, indicating EBM is an effective method to remove oxygen from silicon and decrease the loss of silicon.
