The lay-out of the photon collider at the international linear collider

One of the interaction regions at the linear colliders should be compatible both with e ⁺ e ⁻ and γγ, γe modes of operation. In this paper, the differences in requirements and possible design solutions are discussed.      

Surface elastic properties of Si decorated with Ni nanostructures

Brillouin spectroscopy was used to study elastic properties of the Si (1 1 1) decorated with Ni nanostructures deposited by nanospherical lithography. The height of the nickel nanostructure deposited was about 25 nm, while the area taken by the structure differed depending on the type of matrix used. It was found that the Ni nanostructures change the velocity of both bulk and surface phonons in the systems studied. This finding is in contradiction to the results concerning the surface phonons velocities in different media covered with a homogenous thin metal film, in which the effect was observed for films thicker than 70 nm.     

Insight into chain dimensions in PEO/water solutions

Small‐Angle Neutron Scattering has been performed from poly(ethylene oxide) in deuterated water at temperature ranging from 10 to 80 °C. A simple fitting model was used to obtain a correlation length and a Porod exponent. The correlation length L characterizes the average distance between entanglements in the semidilute region and is proportional to the individual coil sizes in the dilute region. L was found to increase with temperature in the semidilute region but it decreases with temperature in the dilute region. This decrease is the precursor to the single‐chain collapse which applies to very dilute polymer solutions. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 45: 2196–2200, 2007     

On acoustic and electric waves diffraction in piezoelectric medium by a permeable half-plane crack

The problem of electric and acoustic waves diffraction by a half-plane crack in a transversal isotropic piezoelectric medium is investigated. The crack is assumed to be electric permeable and free of tractions. The so-called “quasi-hyperbolic approximation” [15] is adopted. Applying Laplace transformations and Wiener–Hopf technique a closed form solution is obtained. By the means of Cagniard–de Hoop method a detailed dynamic full electroacoustic wavefield’s investigation is conducted. Mode conversion between electric and acoustic waves, effect of electroacoustic head wave, Bleustein–Gulyaev surface wave and the wavefield structure depending on the type of the incident wave (acoustic or electric) and its angle of incidence are analyzed in details. The dynamic field intensity factors at the crack tip depending on the angle of incidence and on time are derived explicitly. Numerical analysis is presented.

X-ray metrology for advanced silicon processes

X-ray reflectivity (XRR), X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) techniques are used to the monitoring of Cu/porous low κ processes, which are developed for the next generation (≤65 nm) integrated circuits. Sensitivity of XRR and XRF is sufficient to detect drifts of the copper barrier layer, copper seed layer and Cu CMP (chemical-mechanical polishing) processes. Their metrology key parameters comply with production requirements. SAXS allows determining the pore structure of low κ films: average pore size and pore size distribution.     

Scattering from infinite rough tubular surfaces

We study the Helmholtz equation in the exterior of an infinite perturbed cylinder with a Dirichlet boundary condition. Existence and uniqueness of solutions are established using the variational technique introduced (SIAM J. Math. Anal. 2005; 37 (2):598–618). We also provide stability estimates with explicit dependence of the constants in terms of the frequency and the perturbed cylinder thickness. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Electron-confined LO-phonon scattering in GaAs-Al0.45Ga0.55As superlattice

We develop a theoretical model to the scattering time due to the electron-confined LO-phonon in GaAs-Al_xGa_1-xAs superlattice taking into account the sub-band parabolicity. Using the new analytic wave function of electron miniband conduction of superlattice and a reformulation slab model for the confined LO-phonon modes, an expression for the electron-confined LO-phonon scattering time is obtained. In solving numerically a partial differential equation for the phonon generation rate, our results show that forx = 0.45, the LO-phonon in superlattice changes from a bulk-like propagating mode to a confined mode. The dispersion of the relaxation time due to the emission of confined LO-phonons depends strongly on the total energy.     

高功率双包层光纤激光器受激拉曼散射和热效应的理论研究

 受激拉曼散射和热效应会限制光纤激光器功率的提高。利用高功率光纤激光器的速率方程和热传导方程，理论研究了双端泵浦和分布泵浦下双包层光纤激光器的受激拉曼散射和热效应，得到了光纤中的泵浦光、激光和斯托克斯光的功率分布，光纤激光器的输出特性以及光纤中的温度分布。分析表明，当泵浦功率增大到一定值时，光纤激光器中出现SRS，一部分激光功率会转移给斯托克斯光，影响激光功率进一步提高;与双端泵浦方式相比，分布泵浦下光纤激光器的斜率效率和最大输出功率相差不大，但是，光纤中的温度分布被有效地降低，因此，分布泵浦方式更为有效。
