退火温度对钨中He相关缺陷演化影响的研究

本文通过离子注入向钨体中注入能量为100keV氦离子,并利用X射线衍射(XRD)以及慢正电子束分析(SPBA)手段研究了不同退火温度下氦在钨体中的行为以及相关缺陷的演化.实验结果表明:低温退火并未改变相关缺陷的类型,样品S参数的下降表明低温退火导致了缺陷浓度的降低;当退火温度达到700℃时,样品S-W参数线性分布的变化表明缺陷类型逐渐发生改变;随着退火温度的进一步升高,He相关缺陷的演化程度加剧并向更深处迁移.     

Optical characterization of high speed microscanners based on static slit profiling method

Optical characterization of high-speed microscanners is a challenging task that usually requires special high speed, extremely expensive camera systems. This paper presents a novel simple method to characterize the scanned beam spot profile and size in high-speed optical scanners under operation. It allows measuring the beam profile and the spot sizes at different scanning angles. The method is analyzed theoretically and applied experimentally on the characterization of a Micro Electro Mechanical MEMS scanner operating at 2.6 kHz. The variation of the spot size versus the scanning angle, up to ±15°, is extracted and the dynamic bending curvature effect of the micromirror is predicted.     

Étude de l?adhérence des joncs et des plats composite avec le béton par flexion (beam test)

The Near Surface Mounted (NSM) technique has been used in recent years for the strengthening of reinforced concrete beams. It involves the insertion of strips or rods of polymers reinforced with carbon fiber (CFRP) in the groove made previously in the concrete cover of corresponding surfaces, filled with epoxy adhesive for fixation. In order to characterize the bond behavior of the laminate and rods to concrete, an experimental work of pullout-bending tests was carried out. The pullout force at the laminate and the slip at the free and loaded end were measured. The influences of the concrete strength, the strength of the bond, and bond length on the bonding behavior between the three materials concrete, epoxy adhesive and CFRP were analyzed.     

Extreme beam attenuation in double-slit experiments: Quantum and subquantum scenarios

Combining high and low probability densities in intensity hybrids  , we study some of their properties in double-slit setups. In particular, we connect to earlier results on beam attenuation techniques in neutron interferometry and study the effects of very small transmission factors, or very low counting rates, respectively, at one of the two slits. We use a “superclassical” modeling procedure which we have previously shown to produce predictions identical with those of standard quantum theory. Although in accordance with the latter, we show that there are previously unexpected new effects in intensity hybrids for transmission factors below a?10⁻⁴$a?10^{-4}$, which can eventually be observed with the aid of weak measurement techniques. We denote these as quantum sweeper effects, which are characterized by the bunching together of low counting rate particles within very narrow spatial domains. We give an explanation of this phenomenology by the circumstance that in reaching down to ever weaker channel intensities, the nonlinear nature of the probability density currents becomes ever more important, a fact which is generally not considered–although implicitly present–in standard quantum mechanics.     

Negative refraction and imaging of acoustic waves in a two-dimensional square chiral lattice structure

The negative refraction behavior and imaging effect for acoustic waves in a kind of two-dimensional square chiral lattice structure are studied in this paper. The unit cell of the proposed structure consists of four zigzag arms connected through a thin circular ring at the central part. The relation of the symmetry of the unit cell and the negative refraction phenomenon is investigated. Using the finite element method, we calculate the band structures and the equi-frequency surfaces of the system, and confirm the frequency range where the negative refraction is present. Due to the rotational symmetry of the unit cell, a phase difference is induced to the waves propagating from a point source through the structure to the other side. The phase difference is related to the width of the structure and the frequency of the source, so we can get a tunable deviated imaging. This kind of phenomenon is also demonstrated by the numerical simulation of two Gaussian beams that are symmetrical about the interface normal with the same incident angle, and the different negative refractive indexes are presented. Based on this special performance, a double-functional mirror-symmetrical slab is proposed for realizing acoustic focusing and beam separation.     

Electron-induced Ti-rich surface segregation on SrTiO3 nanoparticles

Atomic surface structures of nanoparticles are of interest in catalysis and other fields. Aberration-corrected HREM facilitates direct imaging of the surfaces of nanoparticles. A remaining concern of surface imaging arises from beam damage. It is important to identify the intrinsic surface structures and the ones created by electron beam irradiation in TEM. In this study, we performed aberration-corrected HREM and EELS to demonstrate that TiO and bcc type Ti islands form due to intense electron irradiation. The formation of Ti-rich islands is in agreement with previous high temperature annealing experiments on the surfaces of SrTiO₃ single crystals.     

Zeolites are no longer a challenge: Atomic resolution data by Aberration-corrected STEM

Transmission electron microscopy is undoubtedly an indispensable tool for materials characterization, which can currently reach sub-angstrom resolution down to the elemental building blocks of matter, isolated single atoms of most elements. In addition to the phenomenal image resolution, if the material is strong enough, it can be accompanied with chemical information, converting electron microscopy into a unique method for the analysis of a great variety of materials. Unfortunately, extracting all this valuable information is not simple as most materials in one way or another are affected by the strong and localized electron beam. Radiolysis is one kind of reaction between electrons and matter than can cause irreversible structural transformations in our materials. This effect is the predominant factor in zeolites, zeotypes and the majority of molecular sieves. In the present work some results, taken at high voltage (300 kV) and minimizing the exposure to the beam, are presented proving the feasibility of the technique to obtain unprecedented atomic resolution information of different zeolites and microporous solids.
