Spatial distribution of defects produced by boron ion implantation of silicon

A simple technique for the study of the spatial distribution of the damage produced by ion implantation of silicon has been developed. The damage depth distribution for 40 keV boron ions in silicon has been studied at irradiation doses from 7 × 10¹¹ to 3.9 × 10¹⁴ ions/cm² and the relative defect peak depth R _d/R _p = 0.85 determined. An increase of layer conductivity as the surface part of the implanted layer is removed has been revealed. This effect is caused by the presence of radiation defects in the surface region of the layer. The “electrical” cluster diameter is about 28 A and the overlapping cluster dose is close to 1 × 10¹³ ions/cm².     

Carrier removal by implanted IONS in GaAs

Abstract

A model for calculation of the range distribution of energetic ions with taking into account the channeling effect is proposed. The measurement of the depth distributions of boron ions in silicon crystals implanted at 13.6 and 91 MeV revealed significant difference between the measured and the calculated range profiles when the channeling effects have not been included in the calculation. In spite of deminishing the critical angles of channeling with growing ion energy the probability of the capture of ions into the channeling regime is significant in case of high energy implantation even when the incident angles are 7–10° off the main crystallographic directions.     

Hydrophobic Bimetallic Catalysts for H/D Exchange Reaction between Hydrogen and Water

Hydrophobic bimetallic catalysts of Pt-M on styrenedivinylbenzene were prepared, where M represents successively: Ir, Rh, Pd, Cu and Ag. The total metal loading was 0.5 wt% and the weight fractions of the metal M were: 0.0,0.05,0.1,0.25,0.5,0.75 and 1.0. For each sample, the catalytic activity for H/D exchange between hydrogen and water vapor was measured. In case of monometallic catalysts, no activity was detected for M = Cu and M = Ag, and the order of the activity values for the other metals was: Pt < Ir < Rh < Pd. For each bimetallic catalyst, the activity measurements indicated a clear interaction between the platinum and the second metal, thus the activity was significantly increased for M = Ir, increased for M = Rh, decreased for M = Pd, drastically decreased for M = Cu and M = Ag.     

Preparation and Characterization of Electroactive Anion‐Exchange Acrylic Polymer–Gold Composites

The characteristics and performance of an ionic polymer–metal composite (IPMC), prepared with an anion‐exchange acrylic copolymer, was examined. The acrylic copolymer was synthesized by the radical copolymerization of fluoroalkyl methacrylate and 2‐(dimethyl amino)ethyl methacrylate(AMA). Effects of the AMA repeating unit's content in the copolymer and effects of the anion type present on the actuation of the IPMC were observed. The optimal content of 19.4 wt% AMA in the IPMC copolymer yielded the best actuation. The actuation also improved according to the type of anion present in the composite, in the following order: Br^???4 ^?.     

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer between cerium ion(III) and levofloxacin in micellar solution and its analytical application to the determination of levofloxacin

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer between cerium ion(III) and levofloxacin is studied in a micellar solution of cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide. A non-fluorescent 1:2 complex was formed between excited cerium ion(III) and ground state levofloxacin. The fluorescence of cerium ion(III) is quenched by levofloxacin with the quenching in accordance with the Stern–Volmer relation. The analytical relationship was established between the ratio of the fluorescence of levofloxacin present and absent cerium ion (III) and the concentration of levofloxacin, which helped to estimate the content of levofloxacin directly.     

Luminescence of Cs2PtF6

In the past five years, a number of d⁶ complexes have been found to exhibit luminescence when excited by ultraviolet light. Such emission has been assigned to d-d transitions localized on the metal ion, to charge-transfer transitions, and to ligand localized transitions^2,3. The specific kind of emission observed is thought to depend on which electronic level lies lowest in energy.     

High pressure 17O NMR study of solvent exchange on square planar complexes: Water exchange on [Pd(dien)H2O]2+

Abstract

The water exchange reaction of [Pd(dien)H₂O]²⁺ (dien = diethylenetriamine) was studied as function of temperature (268-308 K) and pressure 0.1-197 MPa) using ₁₇O NMR techniques. The rate and activation parameters are: k_cx = 5100 s^?1 at 298 K; ΔH^# =38 kJ mol^?1; ΔS^# = -47 JK^?1 mol^?1; ΔV^# = -2.8 cm³ mol^?1 at 296 K. The results are discussed in reference to solvent exchange data for other Pt(II) and Pd(II) complexes, and are interpreted in terms of an associatively activated substitution process.

2. Mitteilung: Tetraphenylarsoniumverbindungen und Pentaphenylarsen

Es wurde ein Trennverfahren ausgeabeitet, das es gestattet, die Aktivitätsausbeuten für Mono-, Di- und Triphenylarsenverbindungen, für Tetraphenylarsoniumverbindungen und für Pentaphenylarsen sowie für nicht organisch gebundenes Arsen in neutronenbestrahlten Tetraphenylarsoniumver erbindungen und in Pentaphenylarsen zu bestimmen. Als Trennmethoden werden Extraktion, Ionenaustauwsch und Al₂O₃-Chromatographic benutzt. Zur Reinigung und Ausbeutebestimmung von Di- und Triphenylarsenprodukten sowie von Tetraphenylarsonimverbindungen finden Kristallisations- bzw. Fällungsreaktionen Anwendung unter Ausnutzung des Prinzips der Isotopenverdünnungsanalyse.     

Analyse der Rückstoßprodukte in neutronenbestrahlten Phenylarsenverbindungen, 3. Mitteilung: Über die Bestimmung der Ausbeute an Diphenylarsen-Rückstoßprodukten

Für das in der 1. Mitteilung [1] beschriebene Trennverfahren zur Anfarbeitung bestrahlter Mono-, Di- und Triphenylarsenverbindungen sollte die Effektivität der chromatographischen Trennung an dem Kationenaustauscher KPS (6% DVB) mit Hilfe einer unabhängigen Methode überprüft werden. Außerdem sollten Hinweise über Art und Anzahl der nichtidentifizierten ?unbckanntcn Produkte“ erhalten werden, die gemeinsam mit den Diphenylarsen-Rüekstoßprodukten im NaOH-Eluat auftreten. Zu diesem Zweck wurde die von Siuda [2] vorgeschlagene papierelektrophoretische Trennung benutzt.
