Orientation Sensitive EELS-analysis of Boron Nitride Nanometric Hollow Spheres

We present a theory for the inelastic scattering cross-section in hexagonal boron nitride. Explicitly accounting for effects of beam convergence and a finite collection aperture, we present an approach that well describes the form of the observed Boron K-edge. We use this technique to investigate the crystallographic structure of boron nitride nanometric hollow spheres.     

Synthesis and characterisation of hexagonal molybdenum nitrides

Four hexagonal molybdenum nitrides—three modifications of δ-MoN and Mo₅N₆—were prepared by the plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD) method and ammonolysis of MoCl₅ and MoS₂. The nitrides were structurally characterised by X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and selected area electron diffraction. δ₁-MoN is best described by the WC-type structure with stacking faults due to nitrogen atom disorder. Ordering of nitrogen atoms results in δ₂-MoN with the NiAs-type structure. Formation of trigonal molybdenum clusters in δ₃-MoN is responsible for the doubling of the unit cell in a and b directions compared to δ₂-MoN. Mo₅N₆ can be viewed as an intergrowth structure of the WC- and NiAs-type building blocks, accompanied by vacancies on Mo sites. Influence of reaction conditions on the formation of the four nitrides is discussed; their magnetic properties are presented.     

A TEM study of the stability of intermetallic precipitates in Zircaloy nuclear reactor components

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has been used to characterise the radiation-induced changes in Zr(Cr,Fe)₂ intermetallic precipitates present in Zircaloy-2 and -4 nuclear reactor components. The results show that the precipitates become completely amorphous at low fluences (<1 × 10²⁴ n·m⁻²) during low temperature neutron irradiation (about 330 K) with no associated chemical composition change. At higher temperatures (about 573 K), a duplex amorphous-crystalline structure is produced. The precipitates retain a crystalline core surrounded by a peripheral amorphous layer that advances inwards with increasing fluence. The amorphous outer layer is coincident with a depletion of Fe that is dispersed into the surrounding hcp -phase matrix. Subsequent post-irradiation heat-treatment below the amorphous phase recrystallisation temperature results in the back-diffusion of Fe into the precipitates.     

A transmission problem with non‐linear internal damping in elasticity

We consider an anisotropic body constituted by two different types of materials: a part is simple elastic while the other has a non‐linear internal damping. We show that the dissipation caused by the damped part is strong enough to produce uniform decay of the energy, more precisely, the energy decays exponentially when the dissipation is linear with respect to the velocity. For a non‐linear class of dissipations we prove that the energy decays polynomially. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

水下激光通信上行传输特性研究

采用谱分析的方法,建立三维随机海浪的模型;根据大气折射率高度模型,对变折射率大气进行分层。在理论上分析激光通过随机起伏的海面和折射率不均匀分布的大气后,到达卫星接收机平面时形成的光斑的形状、位置和大小。仿真结果表明,海面随机起伏对上行光传输的影响取决于发射光束覆盖的海面区域,即海面光斑的尺寸与海浪波长的相对关系。当海面光斑的尺寸相对很大或很小时,对上行光传输的影响可忽略;在其它情况下通过适当调整发射光束的宽度可以提高通信的质量和稳定性。
