Asymptotic behavior of neutron small-angle multiple scattering spectra

The asymptotic behavior of the spectra for large values of the scattering vector for the case of elastic multiple small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) is investigated theoretically and experimentally. An expansion of the spectrum in terms of the reciprocal of the magnitude of the momentum transfer is obtained taking account of the influence of the instrumental line. It is shown that, to within some factor, the leading term of the expansion is identical to the differential single-scattering cross section averaged over a statistical ensemble of particles; several subsequent terms in the expansion are calculated and the range of applicability of the resulting expressions is determined. The asymptotic behavior of the multiple SANS spectrum is measured, using a two-crystal neutron spectrometer, for samples of an HTSC ceramic, the alloy Fe-Ni, and Al powder. The agreement between the experimental results and the theoretical predictions is analyzed. Zh. éksp. Teor. Fiz. 114, 2194–2203 (December 1998)     

Anisotropy of cubic semimagnetic Cd1−x MnxTe solid solutions and excitonic magnetic polaron energy from polarized-luminescence measurements

Polarized photoluminescence of Cd_1−x Mn_xTe crystals in a weak magnetic field has been studied in Faraday and Voigt geometries. A simple method is proposed to determine the exciton mobility edge and excitonic magnetic-polaron energy. “Forbidden” polarization components of the recombination radiation have been experimentally detected. It has been established that the moments of magnetic polarons are oriented predominantly along the {111} axes. Fiz. Tverd. Tela (St. Petersburg) 40, 894–896 (May 1998)     

Distinctive features of time-resolved photoluminescence of porous silicon coated with a layer of diamondlike carbon

Time-resolved photoluminescence from porous silicon coated with a diamondlike carbon film is investigated. The intensity of the photoluminescence from the carbon film is obserd to increase after deposition, and there is an accompanying change in the intensity and a shortwavelength shift of the photoluminescence band of porous silicon that depends on the porosity of its original layers. These changes are explained by the formation of carbon nanoclusters on the surface of the silicon filaments. Zh. Tekh. Fiz. 68, 83–87 (April 1998)     

Structure of the attraction zones of the final states in the presence of dynamical period doubling bifurcations

The structure of the attraction zones of the final states associated with dynamical period doubling bifurcations is investigated. It is found that on the “initial value—transition rate” plane the attraction zones of the two possible final states alternate with each other and that a subdivision of the attraction regions occurs with a decrease in the transition rate. It is shown that the boundaries of the attraction zones are smeared out because of the effect of noise and in this situation the fine structure of the attraction zones is destroyed. As analytical and numerical calculations have shown, the critical value of the noise variance, corresponding to the boundary between the dynamical (or predictable) and stochastic (or unpredictable) modes, has a power-law dependence on the transition rate with a typical exponent value of one. The existence of “noise” invariants is also observed: the integrated (over all initial values) probability of achieving the final state is invariant with respect to the noise level. Zh. éksp. Teor.

Suppression of the domain structure in uniaxial ferromagnetic films with a superconducting coating

Specific models of domain walls are used to investigate conditions for the single-domain state and quasi-single-domain states in structures with magnetic materials having a quality factor higher than one. It is shown that the critical thickness of the magnetic film in a tangentially magnetized system decreases monotonically as the magnetizing field increases from zero to the transition from the collinear to the homogeneous angular phase and then increases monotonically with increasing external field. In a thin isolated magnetic film, the size of the domains increases exponentially with decreasing thickness. This dependence is logarithmic near the transition to the single-domain state for a film coated on two sides and obeys a power law for a film coated on one side. The establishment of a single-domain state and characteristic features in the asymptotic behavior of the domain structure in magnetic films with and without coatings can be attributed to differences in the asymptotic behavior of the field of a single domain wall.

SPE电极上Pt单组分及Pt-Au双组分还原态CO_2阳极剥离电化学氧化行为研究

采用循环伏安法，对ＳＰＥＰｔ电极以及ＳＰＥＡｕ－Ｐｔ电极上还原态ＣＯ２的电化学氧化行为研究表明，此类电极的电化学特性与光滑Ｐｔ电极一致：ＣＯ２在氢原子吸附电位区０～２５０ｍＶ（ｖｓ．ＲＨＥ）处，可与电极上化学吸附的氢反应，生成还原态的ＣＯ２，通过线性扫描，还原态ＣＯ２即发生一不可逆电化学氧化过程（阳极剥离）．在ＳＰＥＰｔ系列及ＳＰＥＡｕ－Ｐｔ系列上ＣＯ２的电化学行为表明，当ＳＰＥＰｔ系列上Ｐｔ的载量为２．５ｍＬ的０．０１ｍｏｌ·Ｌ－１Ｈ２ＰｔＣｌ６的Ｐｔ时，对还原态ＣＯ２的电催化活性最好，当Ｐｔ的载量相同时，在ＳＰＥＡｕ－Ｐｔ上，催化剂对还原态ＣＯ２的电化学氧化行为比ＳＰＥＰｔ电极更强，这是由于预先沉积的Ａｕ对后沉积的Ｐｔ有调制作用．
