量子尺寸效应对原子表面扩散运动具有调制作用

近日，中科院物理所表面物理国家重点实验室SF4研究组及其合作者在薄膜生长动力学研究中取得新进展．他们从实验和理论上研究了Si（111）单晶衬底上Pb薄膜中的厚度变化对原子表面扩散运动的影响，证明了量子尺寸效应对原子表面扩散运动的调制作用．该成果被选作封面图片发表在美国《物理评论快报》上．     

新课程标准下物理自编习题取向探讨

西南联合大学曾培养出李政道、杨振宁等一批大师级的科学家．该校在1939年入学考试的物理试卷中有这样一道题目：伽利略是怎样研究落体运动的？据当年经过此次考试录取入学、后来为物理教育事业做出巨大贡献的一位前辈回忆说：这道题我们的得分都不高，但它使我们明白了学物理应该学什么，怎样学．而且通过对这道题目的解答和咀嚼，我们豁然领悟，伽利略之前的科学踯躅于泥途荒滩，因而千年徘徊，是他翻越了一道山梁，     

Improvement of Security of Three-Party Quantum Secure Direct Communication Based on GHZ States

A protocol for three-party quantum secure direct communication based on Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger （GHZ） states was recently proposed by 3in et al. [Phys. Lett. A 354 （2006） 67] By analysing the protocol we find some security loopholes, e.g. one bit of secret messages of a party （Alice in the original paper） can always be leaked straight to the public without any eavesdropping. These problems suggested previously are discussed and possible solutions are presented to improve the security of the original protocol.     

An optical scheme for conditional generation of W state and photon-added coherent state

We propose a simple scheme to generate an arbitrary photon-added coherent state of a travelling optical field by combining an array of degenerate parametric amplifiers and corresponding single-photon detectors. Particularly, when the single-photon-added coherent state is observed by developing the novel technique of Zavatta et al （2004 Science 306 660）, we can simultar/eously obtain the generalized N-qubit W state.     

Atom-photon entanglement in the system with competing k-photon and l-photon transitions

We have investigated the evolution of the atomic quantum entropy and the entanglement of atom-photon in the system with competing k-photon and l-photon transitions by means of fully quantum theory, and examined the effects of competing photon numbers （k and l）, the relative coupling strength between the atom and the two-mode field （A/g）, and the initial photon number of the field on the atomic quantum entropy and the entanglement of atom-photon. The results show that the multiphoton competing transitions or the large relative coupling strength can lead to the strong entanglement between atoms and photons. The maximal atom-photon entanglement can be prepared via the appropriate selection of system parameters and interaction time.     

思维导图在物理教学中的应用

思维导图作为一种新型的可视化工具,其最大特点即是发散性.将思维导图应用于物理教学中,有助于教师理清教学内容的知识点及其主次关系,可以有效防止由于课堂生成而造成的知识点遗漏的现象发生.     

多功能物理演示实验室的构建

本文结合东华理工大学物理演示实验室的建设实践,分析了物理演示实验室的教学辅助、科普教育和创新实践等教育功能,并提出了建设多功能物理演示实验室的思路。     

“热气球”演示实验创新设计

初中物理研究物体的浮沉条件一节中,涉及到浮沉条件在技术上的应用,其中热气球的工作原理,如果只是通过几张图片单纯的介绍,学生理解、记忆有一定的难度,这种教学方法很容易让学生产生疲劳,也不符合新课改理念.为了活跃课堂气氛,调动学生学习的主动性.怎样能让热气球走进教室呢?开始,笔者想到了孔明灯,但是孔明灯的蜡块燃烧起来火力太猛,在小小教室里演示,安全措施无法保证于是,把
