Mechanisms of Resonant Infrared Matrix-Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation

For the last decade, a variant of pulsed laser ablation, Resonant-Infrared Matrix-Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation (RIR-MAPLE), has been studied as a deposition technique for organic and polymeric materials. RIR-MAPLE minimizes photochemical damage from direct interaction with the intense laser beam by encapsulating the polymer in a high infrared-absorption solvent matrix. This review critically examines the thermally-induced ablation mechanisms resulting from irradiation of cryogenic solvent matrices by a tunable free electron laser (FEL). A semi-empirical model is used to calculate temperatures as a function of time in the focal volume and determine heating rates for different resonant modes in two model solvents, based on the thermodynamics and kinetics of the phase transitions induced in the solvent matrices. Three principal ablation mechanisms are discussed, namely normal vaporization at the surface, normal boiling, and phase explosion. Normal vaporization is a highly inefficient polymer deposition mechanism as it relies on collective collisions with evaporating solvent molecules. Diffusion length calculations for heterogeneously nucleated vapor bubbles show that normal boiling is kinetically limited. During high-power pulsed-FEL irradiation, phase explosion is shown to be the most significant contribution to polymer deposition in RIR-MAPLE. Phase explosion occurs when the target is rapidly heated (10⁸ to 10¹⁰ K/s) and the solvent matrix approaches its critical temperature. Spontaneous density stratification (spinodal decay) within the condensed metastable phase leads to rapid homogeneous nucleation of vapor bubbles. As these vapor bubbles interconnect, large pressures build up within the condensed phase, leading to target explosions and recoil-induced ejections of polymer to a near substrate. Phase explosion is a temperature (fluence) threshold-limited process, while surface evaporation can occur even at very low fluences.     

Luminescence of dense, octahedral structured crystalline silicon dioxide (stishovite)

It is obtained that, as grown, non-irradiated stishovite single crystals possess a luminescence center. Three excimer pulsed lasers (KrF, 248 nm; ArF, 193 nm; F₂, 157 nm) were used for photoluminescence (PL) excitation. Two PL bands were observed. One, in UV range with the maximum at 4.7±0.1 eV with FWHM equal to 0.95±0.1 eV, mainly is seen under ArF laser. Another, in blue range with the maximum at 3±0.2 eV with FWHM equal to 0.8±0.2 eV, is seen under all three lasers. The UV band main fast component of decay is with time constant τ=1.2±0.1 ns for the range of temperatures 16-150 K. The blue band decay possesses fast and slow components. The fast component of the blue band decay is about 1.2 ns. The slow component of the blue band well corresponds to exponent with time constant equal to 17±1 μs within the temperature range 16-200 K. deviations from exponential decay were observed as well and explained by influence of nearest interstitial OH groups on the luminescence center. The UV band was not detected for F₂ laser excitation. For the case of KrF laser only a structure less tail up to 4.6 eV was detected. Both the UV and the blue bands were also found in recombination process with two components having characteristic time about 1 and 60 μs. For blue band recombination luminescence decay is lasting to ms range of time with power law decay ∼t⁻¹.For the case of X-ray excitation the luminescence intensity exhibits strong drop down above 100 K. such an effect does not take place in the case of photoexcitation with lasers. The activation energies for both cases are different as well. Average value of that is 0.03±0.01 eV for the case of X-ray luminescence and it is 0.15±0.05 eV for the case of PL. So, the processes of thermal quenching are different for these kinds of excitation and, probably, are related to interaction of the luminescence center with OH groups.Stishovite crystal irradiated with pulses of electron beam (270 kV, 200 A, 10 ns) demonstrates a decrease of luminescence intensity excited with X-ray. So, irradiation with electron beam shows on destruction of luminescent defects.The nature of luminescence excited in the transparency range of stishovite is ascribed to a defect existing in the crystal after growth. Similarity of the stishovite luminescence with that of oxygen deficient silica glass and induced by radiation luminescence of α-quartz crystal presumes similar nature of centers in those materials.     

Optical spectroscopy, 1.5 μm emission and up-conversion properties of Er-doped Li3Ba2Gd3(MoO4)8 crystal

Er³⁺:Li₃Ba₂Gd₃(MoO₄)₈ crystal has been grown from a melt of Li₂MoO₄ by the top seeded solution growth method (TSSG). The polarized spectral properties of Er³⁺:Li₃Ba₂Gd₃(MoO₄)₈ crystal were investigated and the spectroscopic parameters were calculated and analyzed based on the Judd-Ofelt (J-O) theory. The emission cross-sections were calculated by the Fuchtbauer-Ladenburg (F-L) equation and the peak values of the emission band at 1535 nm were 9.7×10⁻²¹, 7.9×10⁻²¹ and 8.4×10⁻²¹ cm² for E∥b, E∥D1 and E∥D2, respectively. Under 977 nm excitation five up-conversion fluorescence bands around 490, 530, 550, 660 and 800 nm were observed, and the possible up-conversion mechanisms were proposed.     

Infrared photoluminescence of erbium-tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) in a distributed feedback cavity

A distributed feedback (DFB) waveguide cavity with erbium-tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) has been fabricated by X-ray interference lithography in a laboratory-scale apparatus. The DFB cavity consists of a large area () one-dimensional grating of polymethylmethacrylate on Si (1 0 0). Structural, morphological and optical properties of the device have been studied. On-grating narrowing of the photoluminescence emission has been observed for the 492 nm grating period in correspondence to the 4f-4f Er band peak (at 1530 nm), indicating the possibility of optical gain for applications in the telecommunications.     

High-resolution spectroscopy of the ν8 band of methylene bromide using a quantum cascade laser

A continuous wave cavity ringdown spectrometer with a Fabry-Perot quantum cascade laser has been used to collect a rotationally-resolved infrared spectrum of the ν₈ vibrational band of methylene bromide in a slit nozzle expansion. In our laboratory, previous observations of the vibrational band were limited by spectral coverage to only the P and Q-branches and by the 24 MHz step-size of the laser [1]. The issue of limited spectral coverage has been resolved using a Fresnel rhomb and a wire grid polarizer to protect the laser from the destabilizing effects of back-reflection from the ringdown cavity. The frequency step-size of the spectrometer has been reduced from 24 MHz to 2 MHz. With both of these instrument enhancements, we have been able to record the R-branch of the vibrational band, and can resolve many lines that were previously blended in spectra acquired using a pinhole expansion nozzle. Significant hyperfine splitting was observed for the low-J transitions in the P and R-branches. It was possible to neglect the effects of hyperfine splitting for transitions involving J″ > 2 in the spectral assignment, and simulations using the constants obtained by fitting to Watson’s S-reduced Hamiltonian for CH₂⁷⁹Br⁸¹Br, and the A-reduced form for CH₂⁷⁹Br₂ and CH₂⁸¹Br₂, provide a good match to experimental spectra. A total of 297 transitions have been assigned for all three isotopologues, with a standard deviation of 0.00024 cm⁻¹(∼7 MHz).
