Amorphous Fe–Mg alloy thin films: magnetic properties and atomic vibrational dynamics

Amorphous (a-) Fe _x Mg_1?x alloys are interesting materials for the investigation of non-Debye-like low-energy vibrational excitations. We have prepared a-Fe _x Mg_1?x alloy thin films (0.3 ≤ × ≤0.7) by vapour quenching. The amorphous state was confirmed by conversion electron Mössbauer spectroscopy between 4.2–300 K, and the x- and temperature-dependence of the isomer shift and hyperfine magnetic field was measured. For x= 0.6 and 0.7, magnetic ordering occurs below ~150 K. The atomic vibrational density of states, g(E), was determined by nuclear resonant inelastic scattering, providing clear evidence for the non-Debye-like low-energy vibrational excitations.     

罗斯滤片法测量激光打靶X射线辐射通量

利用一套罗斯滤片系统测量激光轰击固体金属Ti平面靶产生的X射线辐射通量,系统包括两个相同的X射线探测器及相应滤膜。罗斯滤片法的优点在于利用相邻核素对X射线相似的阻止率,可滤出一个窄的能带并去除高能部分的干扰,获得了Ti平面靶K壳层X光辐射产额。实验结果表明:硬X射线能段在4.5~4.9keV之间的K壳特征辐射占优,连续谱所占份额较低(与晶体谱仪一致);随着激光能量的增加,特征辐射增加;激光强度接近2×1015 W/cm2时,能量转换效率出现峰值。     

PTCDA/P-Si光电探测器欧姆接触层的XPS测试分析

在光电探测器PTCDA/P-Si芯片的有机层表面,成功制作出了比接触电阻为4.5×10-5Ω·cm2的低阻欧姆接触层。利用X射线光电子能谱(XPS)对Al/Ni/ITO的欧姆接触层界面的电子状态进行了测试和分析。结果表明,ITO中的In3d及Sn3d各出现两个分裂能级的谱峰,它们是In和Sn原子处于氧化环境的结合能。Ni2p有两个谱峰Ni2p(1)及Ni2p(2),低结合能位置Ni2p(1)对应于Ni原子被X射线激发产生的谱峰,说明NiITO之间没有发生化学反应,Ni层阻止了Al层被氧化成Al2O3;高结合能Ni2p(2)谱峰说明已形成了Al3Ni冶金相,有利于低阻欧姆接触层的形成。     

Epitaxial growth of Ge1-xSnx films with x up to 0.14 grown on Ge （001） at low temperature

We characterize the structures of Ge1-xSnx films with x up to 0.14 grown on Ge （001） by molecular-beam epitaxy at low temperature. The results show that Ge1-xSnx films are fully strained even at high Sn composition. The in-plane lattice parameters remain exactly the same as that of the substrate. Depth sensitivity analysis of the lattice parameters indicates that the strains of the epitaxial films are all in homogeneity. The films are fully strained. Poisson ratios, the force constants for the bonds between Ge and Sn are estimated and discussed in the present paper. Raman results show Ge-Ge, Ge-Sn, Sn-Sn vibrational modes. The Sn-Sn bond aggregation may respond to the high quality of our films. The fully strained epitaxy films with high content of Sn may be useful in designing the high quality GeSn films.     

Solid-state structure of polypeptide-based rod-coil block copolymers: Folding of helices

This work compares the solid-state structures of films made from a polystyrene-poly(Z-L-lysine) (1) and a polystyrene-poly(-benzyl-L-glutamate) (2) block copolymer, both having virtually the same numbers of repeating units and block length ratios. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) revealed a hexagonal-in-undulated lamellar morphology for both films. The long-period and the thickness of layers obtained for 2 were by a factor of three smaller as compared to 1, indicating that PBLGlu helices were folded twice, whereas PZLLys helices were fully stretched. Another difference shows up in the packing of helices, the level of ordering being considerably lower in 2. This might be due to spatial restrictions in the proper alignment of back-folded helical segments.     

Preliminary investigation to test extragalactic hypothesis for gamma-ray bursts

Summary Recent observations of CGRO satellite challenged the almost universally accepted galactic origin of gamma-ray bursts and have revived the extragalactic, cosmological models. This hypothesis should imply some variations of the morphological and energetic characteristics of the weaker events to which we think the farthest ones might belong. The existence of such variations due to the cosmological red-shift should be tested. In this paper we examine the possible correlations between temporal morphology of the gamma-ray bursts, peak intensity and photon energy spectra when the red-shift effects do not yet occur. We examine the peak intensities and the energy spectral-hardness distributionversus rise times for events observed by previous space missions, with a logN-logS shape free of cosmological effects. The results of this analysis suggest that a wide range of values of the temporal and spectral characteristic parameters is an intrinsic property of the sources. Paper presented at the 6th Cosmic Physics National Conference, Palermo, 3–7 November 1992.     

K α L 1 satellite multiplet structure of photon-excited chlorine atoms

Summary An attempt is made to study theK _α L ¹ satellite multiplet structure of chlorine atoms in different compounds by photon excitation. A comparison of the averageK _α L ¹ group energy shift from the diagram line with those based on Dirac-Fock evaluations with different number ofM-shell electrons shows a reasonable agreement. The intensity ratios are found to be higher than those studied in Mg compounds in general.

带超环面镜的掠入射光栅谱仪测试系统响应特性模拟分析

指出了文献[1]在物理概念上和公式推导中的错误,并在订正了这些错误之后,考虑了实际的激光等离子体光源的几何尺度和线状等离子体的安排,对在复合泵浦X激光增益实验中所使用的带超环面镜X光中继元件的掠入射光栅光谱仪系统进行了全面的模拟计算.结果表明,作者所使用的带超环面镜的X光增益测试系统,其因离焦而导致的非线性效应是完全可以忽略的,系统的空间分辨能力的下降也是非常小的,从而否定了文献[1]中的结论,表明作者在X激光增益测量实验中所使用的带超环面镜X光中继元件的掠入射光栅光谱仪系统是完全可靠的.     

黑腔靶中超热电子特性研究

近几年来,在“神光”装置上进行了1.053μm激光与平面靶及一系列柱形黑腔靶相互作用实验。用一台多道滤波—荧光X光能谱仪(FFS)测得各种靶发射的超热X射线谱,由谱推导超热电子温度T_h和超热电子总能量E_h当照射靶单束激光能量E_(tar)为400～670J、脉宽τ=650～1150ps时,发现黑腔内明显存在两群服从Maxwell分布高能电子(T_h=35～45keV;T_(hh)=150～350kev),而且E_(he)占E_(tar)的份额为10％～12％。实验还表明:腔内的E_(he)与非线性过程特征量(SRS)有较好的线性关系,因此推断出腔内超热电子产生的主要机制是受激Raman散射。在相同照射条件下,黑腔靶产生的超热电子比平面靶严重。
