Induced electric fields and plasmonic interactions between a metallic nanotube and a thin metallic film

We have numerically simulated the induced electric fields and the plasmonic interactions of a metallic nanotube near a thin metallic film. Our study shows that the energies and intensities of the plasmon resonances depend strongly on the aspect ratio (the ratio of the inner to outer radius) of the nanotube as well as the separation between the center of the nanotube and the upper surface of the metallic film and the thickness of the film. The enhancement of the induced electric field of this system reaches ...     

a-C:N:H纳米尖端荧光产生的机理

用CH4,H2和NH3为反应气体,利用等离子体增强热丝化学气相沉积在沉积有碳膜的Si衬底上制备了a-C:N:H纳米尖端,并用扫描电子显微镜和微区Raman光谱仪对碳膜和纳米尖端进行了表征。结果表明:Raman谱中含有与碳和氮相关的峰,且纳米尖端的Raman谱比碳膜的Raman谱有很强的荧光背景。Raman谱中的峰说明沉积的碳膜和纳米尖端是a-C:N:H薄膜和a-C:N:H尖端。a-C:N:H纳米尖端的Raman谱中强荧光背景的产生表明其在激发光源照射的过程中发射了强荧光,对a-C:N:H纳米尖端产生强荧光的机理进行了探讨。     

拉曼光谱法研究纳米结构多孔ZnO微球的合成机理

利用拉曼光谱方法,对柠檬酸钠辅助水热合成纳米结构多孔ZnO微球的机理进行了研究。样品的拉曼光谱特征显示,多孔ZnO微球中存在Zn-柠檬酸配合物;分析表明反应溶液中柠檬酸钠水解产生的柠檬酸根与Zn2+结合形成Zn-柠檬酸配合物,该配合物化学吸附在Zn(OH)₂晶核的(204)和(503)晶面,使Zn(OH)₂晶核择优生长形成纳米薄片状结构;水热过程中Zn(OH)₂微晶团聚形成纳米片状结构多孔Zn(OH)₂微球并以沉淀析出。研究发现吸附在薄片表面的Zn-柠檬酸配合物提高了Zn(OH)₂微晶的热稳定性,使得Zn(OH)₂的分解温度高于200 ℃,加热到300 ℃后Zn(OH)₂完全分解获得纳米结构多孔ZnO微球。     

Relationship between positron bulk lifetime and lattice constants-research on NaCl-type crystals

The positron lifetimes of some compounds with NaCl-type crystal structure are calculated with the method of atomic superposition approximation (ATSUP) based on the theories of local-density-approximation (LDA) and generalgradient-approximation (GGA).The systematical results are fitted to a curve as a function of lattice constants.The positron bulk lifetimes of some other compounds with NaCl-type crystal structure,which are deduced from the systematical results,are in agreement with the experimental results given in other literature.     

Microwave Doppler spectra of sea return at small incidence angles: specular point scattering contribution

It is well known that the sea return echo contains contributions from at least two scattering mechanisms. In addition to the resonant Bragg scattering, the specular point scattering plays an important role as the incidence angle becomes smaller (≤20o). Here, in combination with the Kirchhoff integral equation of scattering field and the stationary phase approximation, analytical expressions for Doppler shift and spectral bandwidth of specular point scattering, which are insensitive to the polarization state, are derived theoretically. For comparison, the simulated results related to the two-scale method (TSM) and the method of moment (MOM) are also presented. It is found that the Doppler shift and the spectral bandwidth given by TSM are insufficient at small incidence angles. However, a comparison between the analytical results and the numerical simulations by MOM in the backscatter configuration shows that our proposed formulas are valid for the specular point scattering case. In this work, the dependences of the predicted results on incidence angle, radar frequency, and wind speed are also discussed. The obtained conclusions seem promising for a better understanding of the Doppler spectra of the specular point scattering fields from time-varying sea surfaces.     

Interaction behaviours of solitoffs: fission, fusion, reconnection and annihilation

The interactions between solitoffs are extensively investigated. Besides the known solitoff fission and fusion interactions, two new types of solitoff interactions are discovered, named the solitoff reconnection and the solitoff annihilation. Taking the asymmetric Nizhnik--Novikov--Veselov equation as an illustrative system, five types of solitoff interactions are graphically revealed on the basis of the analytical solution obtained by the modified tanh function expansion method.     

Many-electron effect in the Fe L3-M4,5M4,5 Auger electron spectrum of ultrathin Fe films grown on Cu(1 0 0)

D’Addato et al. [S. D’Addato, P. Luches, R. Gotter, L. Floreano, D. Cvetko, A. Morgante, A. Newton, D. Martin, P. Unsworth, P. Weightman, Surf. Rev. Lett. 9 (2002) 709] studied the variation with Fe coverages in the relative Fe L₃-M_4,5M_4,5 Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) spectral satellite intensity of ultrathin Fe films grown on Cu(1 0 0) by sweeping photon excitation energy through the Fe L₂-level ionization threshold. They interpreted that the M_4,5 hole in the L₃M_4,5 double-hole state created by the L₂-L₃M_4,5 Coster–Kronig (CK) decay remains localized for longer than the L₃-hole lifetime for the 0.3 and 10 ML coverages but has a lifetime comparable to the L₃-hole lifetime for the 1 ML coverages. The present many-body theory shows that when the M_4,5 hole created either by the CK decay or by the L₃M_4,5 shakeoff hops away from the ionized atomic site and becomes completely screened out prior to the L₃-hole decay, the Fe L₂-L₃M_4,5-L₃-M_4,5M_4,5 AES main line as well as the Fe L₃ M_4,5 (satellite)-L₃-M_4,5M_4,5 one, both of which are identical in line shape to the Fe L₃-M_4,5M_4,5 one, dominate in the Fe CK preceded AES spectrum. The present analysis shows that the delocalization time of the M_4,5 hole created in the 1 ML Fe/Cu(1 0 0) system by the L₂-L₃M_4,5 CK decay is much shorter than the L₃-hole lifetime so that the Fe L₃-M_4,5M_4,5 AES spectral line shape hardly changes, except for the presence of a very weak spectator L₂-L₃M_4,5-M_4,5M_4,5M_4,5 AES satellite, when the photon excitation energy is swept through the Fe L₂-level ionization threshold. For the 0.3 ML coverages the M_4,5-hole delocalization time is still shorter than the L₃-hole lifetime.     

Optical and mechanical properties of AlF3 films produced by pulse magnetron sputtering of Al targets with CF4/O2 gas

In this study, AlF₃ thin films were deposited by pulse magnetron sputtering of Al targets with different ratios of CF₄/O₂ gas and at different sputtering powers. The optical and mechanical properties of the AlF₃ thin films were analyzed. The transmittance spectra showed no obvious negative inhomogeneous refractive indices. Denser films with a low optical absorption were obtained when high sputtering powers were used (larger than 30 W). The lowest extinction coefficient (7.3 × 10⁻⁴ at 193 nm) of the films can be reached with 12 sccm O₂ flow rate and at 160W sputtering power. All of the residual stresses were compressive and their trends were consistent with the refractive indices. The lowest compressive stress (0.068 GPa) was obtained when the AlF₃ films were prepared at 160W sputtering power.     

紫外增强薄膜发射光谱测量中的倍波现象分析

紫外探测技术足继激光和红外探测技术之后发展起来的又一军民两用光电探测技术,在普通探测器件光敏面镀上将紫外波段的光转化为可见波段的光的变频薄膜是增强光电探测器紫外响应的主要技术.文章用"旋涂法"制备成像器件紫外增强薄膜.在对紫外增强薄膜的量子转化效率进行测量分析的实验过程中用SP1702紫外可见光栅光谱仪对薄膜的紫外变频效率进行分析,在激发光源为260和280nm时变频薄膜的发射光谱在520和560 nm附近有较明显的波峰.结合光栅光谱仪的工作原理,对该现象进行了理论分析,得出520和560 nm附近的波峰并非变频薄膜受激发发出的光波,而是光谱测量中产生的倍波现象.从分离重级光谱的角度没计了光谱分级器,以消除光谱测鼍中倍波现象的影响.
