Sn/Ge(1 1 1) α-phase: characterization of image resonances by specular electron reflection and selective electron scattering

Image potential resonances on the Sn/Ge(1 1 1) α-phase are investigated by two closely related methods: specular electron reflection and so-called selective electron scattering. Electrons from image resonances are detected on this surface at 120 and 300 K, i.e. below and above the phase transition at about 200 K. The dispersion of the image resonances reveals at these two temperatures equivalent effective electron masses, which are characteristic for this type of electronic surface states. The results of the two methods are consistent according to the similarity of the scattering processes. Changes in the loss peak intensity with the annealing temperature are assigned to the surface quality and are reflected by characteristic photoemission intensities.

Newby shift ofK=0 rotational bands in odd-odd rare-earths

A data set of 29 experimentally determined Newby shifts in rare-earth nuclei is examined for the reliability of each values. Using this data set, Newby shifts are obtained which are free from the Coriolis and the particle-particle coupling effects. These new empirical values help resolve the failure of a recently proposed rule for the sign of the Newby shift in the {5/2[413]p − 5/2[642]n} configuration of¹⁶⁰Tb and the {5/2[402]p − 5/2[512]n} configuration of¹⁷⁴Lu. Also the Newby shifts are significantly modified in two other cases namely the {1/2[411]p − 1/2[521]n} configuration in¹⁶⁸Tm and the {1/2[541]p − 1/2[521]n} configuration in¹⁷²Lu. Only marginal changes are seen in the rest of the cases in the rare-earth nuclei.     

The role of OH ions in the stabilization of F colour centres in LiF

Thermally Stimulated Depolarisation Current (TSDC) and optical methods are applied to a range of alkali-fluoride crystals in order to establish a model for the stable F ₂ ⁺ - like colour centres in LiF:OH^-. The experimental results for LiF:OH^- suggest that the OH^- defects are partially destroyed under ionising irradiation or during crystal growth. The low-temperature dielectric relaxation signals in LiF:OH^- and LiF:Mg²⁺,OH^- are attributed to highly interacting hydroxide ions and products of their destruction located in extended lattice defects. In LiF:OH^-, in contrast to other alkali halides, the results advocate for a defect-structure model, which considers a neutral defect (ND, probably O₂ or H₂) sited at the anion vacancy of the O^2--V _a ⁺ dipole and which possibly is the “nucleus” for the F ₂ ⁺ centre. The proposed F ₂ ⁺ (ND, O^-) model seems to better explain the dielectric results, compared to the older F ₂ ⁺ (O^2-) and F ₂ ⁺ (O^-) models. The estimate for the electric dipole moment derived from the experimental TSDC bands, gives a value for the F ₂ ⁺ - like centre in LiF:OH^- between those of the F ₂ ⁺ (O^-) and F ₂ ⁺ (O^2-) defects, in good agreement with the proposed F ₂ ⁺ (ND,O^-) model. The reduction of the activation energy barrier of the (re)orientation process of the Mg²⁺V _c ^- (OH^-) complexes in LiF:Mg²⁺,OH^-, and the low-temperature shift of their TSDC band, compared to the single Mg ₂ ⁺ V _c ^- peak in LiF:Mg²⁺, are tentatively ascribed to an increase in the crystal-lattice parameters owing to the presence of OH^- and/or products of its destruction.

Synthesis and characterization of poly(ethylene oxide‐co‐ethylene carbonate) macromonomers and their use in the preparation of crosslinked polymer electrolytes

Methacrylate‐functionalized poly(ethylene oxide‐co‐ethylene carbonate) macromonomers were prepared in two steps by the anionic ring‐opening polymerization of ethylene carbonate at 180 °C, with potassium methoxide as the initiator, followed by the reaction of the terminal hydroxyl groups of the polymers with methacryloyl chloride. The molecular weight of the polymer went through a maximum after approximately 45 min of polymerization, and the content of ethylene carbonate units in the polymer decreased with the reaction time. A polymer having a number‐average molecular weight of 2650 g mol^?1 and an ethylene carbonate content of 28 mol % was selected and used to prepare a macromonomer, which was subsequently polymerized by UV irradiation in the presence of different concentrations of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide salt. The resulting self‐supportive crosslinked polymer electrolyte membranes reached ionic conductivities of 6.3 × 10^?6 S cm^?1 at 20 °C. The coordination of the lithium ions by both the ether and carbonate oxygens in the polymer structure was indicated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Assessment of filtered gas–solid momentum transfer models via a linear wave propagation speed test

The propagation speeds of linear waves in gas–solid suspensions depend strongly on the solids volume fraction and the wave frequency. The latter is due to gas–solid momentum transfer and allows a simple test on filtered gas–solid momentum transfer models. Such models may predict linear wave propagation speeds different from those obtained with the non-filtered model at wave frequencies higher than the filter frequency, but not at wave frequencies lower than the filter frequency.

Pulsed pump: Thermal effects in solid state lasers under super-Gaussian pulses

Solid state laser (SSL) powers can be realistically scaled when pumped by a real, efficient and multimode pulse. In this work, a fourth-order super-Gaussian pulse was assumed as a pump for SSL’s and a complete analytical expression for the thermal phase shift is given. Moreover, the focal length of thermal lens in paraxial ray approximation regime was studied. The results when applied to a Ti: sapphire crystal show an appreciable correction for abberation compared to a top-hat pulse.
