Optical transitions in Er^3＋ doped lead germanate glasses

Er^{3+}- and Er^{3+}/Yb^{3+}-doped lead germanate glasses that are suitable for use in fibre lasers and optical amplifiers as well as optical waveguide devices have been fabricated and characterized. The absorption spectra from near-infrared to visible were obtained and the Judd－Ofelt parameters were determined from the absorption band. Intense and broad 1.53μm infrared fluorescence and visible upconversion luminescence were observed under 976 nm diode laser excitation. For 1.53μm emission band, the full widths at half-maximum are 36, 37, 51 nm for GPE, GPYE and GPFE samples, respectively. For frequency upconversion emission, the intense bands centred at around 524, 545, 657nm are due to the {}^4S_{3/2}+{}^2H_{11/2}→{}^4I_{15/2} and {}^4F_{9/2}→{}^4I_{15/2} transitions of Er^{3+} ions. The quadratic dependence of the green and red emissions on excitation power indicates that the two-photon absorption process occurs under the 976nm excitation.     

Functionalized boron carbide for enhancement of anticorrosion performance of epoxy resin

In this study, epoxy coatings were modified by adding various compositions of B₄C particles. In order to achieve proper dispersion of particles in the epoxy coating and increasing chemical interactions between particles and polymeric coating, the surface of the B₄C particles was treated with γ‐(2,3‐epoxypropoxy) propytrimethoxysilane (KH560). The surface modification and microstructure of B₄C were characterized by Fourier transform infrared, X‐ray diffraction, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was also used to evaluate the impedance of coatings. The results revealed that the KH560 not only enhanced the interaction between B₄C particles and epoxy resin but also exhibited a remarkable ability to improve the anticorrosion performance of epoxy resin. The epoxy coating with the 3 wt% B₄C‐KH560 particles exhibited the best anticorrosion performance, which can be attributed to the best uniform dispersion of the B₄C‐KH560 particles, and the particles effectively block the aggressive species (Cl⁻, O₂, and H₂O) from the coating.

The charge storage of the nc—Si layer

Sandwiched structures (a-SiN_x/a-Si/a-SiN_x) have been fabricated by the plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition technique. A Si nanocrystal (nc-Si) layer was formed by crystallization of an a-Si layer according to the constrained crystallization principle after quasi-static thermal annealing at 1100℃ for 30 min. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Raman scattering spectroscopy clearly demonstrated that nc-Si grains were formed in the as-deposited a-Si layer after annealing. The density of nc-Si grains is about 10¹¹cm^-2 as shown by TEM photographs. Using capacitance－voltage (C－V) measurements we investigated the electrical characteristics of the sandwiched structures. The charge storage phenomenon of the nc-Si layer was observed from the shift of flat-band voltage (V_FB) in C－V curves at a high frequency (1 MHz). We estimated the density of nc-Si grains to be about 10¹¹cm^-2 from the shift value of V_FB, which is in agreement with the result of TEM photographs. At the same time, we found that the shift of V_FB increased with the increase of the applied constant dc voltage or the thickness of the nc-Si layer.
