Electron Acceleration by a Finite-Amplitude Solitary Kinetic Alfven Wave

The electron acceleration by a finite-amplitude solitary kinetic Alfven wave （SKAW） in the low-β magnetized plasma is presented. It is found that the electron can be ettlciently accelerated in both the parallel and the transverse directions of ambient magnetic field by a finite-amplitude SKAW up to several tenfold Alvin velocity within the time 0.08 μs. These results are greatly different from the case of the electron accelerated by a small- amplitude SKAW.     

Nanoscale Thermal Response in ZnO Varistors by Atomic Force Microscopy

We report the application of customer-built scanning thermal microscopy （SThM） based on a commercial atomic force microscope to investigate local thermal inhomogeneity of ZnO varistors. The so-called 3ω method, generally used for measuring macroscale thermal conductivity, is set up and integrated with an atomic force microscope to probe the nanoseale thermal property. Remarkably, thermal contrasts of ZnO varistors are firstly imaged by the SThM, indicating the uniform distribution of spinel phases at triple points. The frequency-dependent thermal signal of ZnO varistors is also studied to present quantitative evaluation of local thermal conductivity of the sample.     

Simulation of Dual Frequency Capacitive Sheath over a Concave Electrode in Low Pressure

A self-consistent two-dimensional （2D） collisionless fluid model is developed to simulate the characteristics of a dual frequency capacitive sheath over an electrode with a cylindrical hole. The model consists of 2D time-dependent fluid equations coupled with Poisson＇s equation, in which the low-frequency （LF） and high-frequency current sources are applied to an electrode. Thus, the so-called equivalent circuit model coupling with the fluid equations will be able to self-consistently determine the relationship between the instantaneous voltage on the powered electrode and the sheath thickness. The time-averaged potential, electric field, ion density in the sheath and ion energy distributions at the bottom of the hole are calculated and compared for different LF frequencies. The results show that the LF frequency is crucial for determining the sheath structure. The existence of the cylindrical hole on the electrode obviously affects the sheath profile in the parallel to the electrode and makes the sheath profile tend to adapt the contours of the electrode, which is the plasma molding effect.     

Anomalous Pressure Behavior of N-Cluster Emissions in GaAs0.973Sb0.022N0.005

Photoluminescence of GaAs0.973Sb0.022N0.005 is investigated at different temperatures and pressures. Both the alloy band edge and the N-related emissions, which show different temperature and pressure dependences, are observed. The pressure coefficients obtained in the pressure range 0-1.4GPa for the band edge and N-related emissions are 67 and 45meV/GPa, respectively. The N-related emissions shift to a higher energy in the lower pressure range and then begin to redshift at about 8.5GPa. This redshift is possibly caused by the increase of the X-valley component in the N-related states with increasing pressure.     

Grey Self-similar Solitary Waves in Inhomogeneous Nonlinear Media

This paper analyzes spatial grey self-similar solitary waves propagation and collision in graded-index nonlinear waveguide amplifiers with self-focusing and self-defocusing Kerr nonlinearities. New exact self-similar solutions are found using a novel transformation and their main features are investigated by using direct computer simulations.     

A Criterion for Stability of Synchronization and Application to Coupled Chua＇s Systems

We investigate synchronization in an array network of nearest-neighbor coupled chaotic oscillators. By using of the Lyapunov stability theory and matrix theory, a criterion for stability of complete synchronization is deduced. Meanwhile, an estimate of the critical coupling strength is obtained to ensure achieving chaos synchronization. As an example application, a model of coupled Chua＇s circuits with linearly bidirectional coupling is studied to verify the validity of the criterion.

The Mei symmetries and the Lie symmetries for nonholonomic controllable mechanical systems with relativistic rotational variable mass are studied. The differential equations of motion of the systems are established. The definition and criterion of the Mei symmetries and the Lie symmetries of the system are studied respectively. The necessary and sufficient condition under which the Mei symmetry is Lie symmetry is given. The condition under which the Mei symmetries can be led to a new kind of conserved quantity and the form of the conserved quantity are obtained. An example is given to illustrate the application of the results.
