A prototype MRPC beam test for the BESⅢ ETOF upgrade

A prototype multi-gap resistive plate chamber (MRPC) with a 2×6 gap structure is developed for the upgrading of the endcap time-of-flight (ETOF) detector in the Beijing Spectrometer (BESⅢ). The prototype MRPC is tested in the E3 beam line of the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC) with secondary charged particles (π and p, etc) of 600 MeV/c. The test results show that the time resolution of the MRPC can reach 50 ps and that the detection efficiency is greater than 98%.     

金核——金核与质子-质子对撞中矢量介子K0(892)和φ(1020)的自旋排列

We present the preliminary results on the spin alignment matrix element ρ₀₀ for vector mesons K^*0(892) and φ(1020) in mid-central (20%—60%) Au+Au and p+p collisions at s_NN=200GeV. The values of ρ₀₀ with respect to reaction plane in Au+Au collisions are 0.36±0.02(stat)±0.13(sys) for K^*0(892) and 0.38±0.01 (stat)±0.04 (sys) for φ(1020). No evident global spin alignment with respect to reaction plane is observed in the measured p_T region up to 5GeV/c with current sensitivity. ρ₀₀ with respect to the production plane of the vector meson is also measured for K^*0(892) and φ(1020) in Au+Au collisions, and for φ(1020) in p+p collisions. No significant difference for the ρ₀₀ between Au+Au and p+p collisions is observed with our data sample.

Amorphous Er2O3 films for antireflection coatings

This paper reports that stoichiometric, amorphous, and uniform Er2O3 films are deposited on Si(001) substrates by a radio frequency magnetron sputtering technique. Ellipsometry measurements show that the refractive index of the Er2O3 films is very close to that of a single layer antireflection coating for a solar cell with an air surrounding medium during its working wavelength. For the 90-nm-thick film, the reflectance has a minimum lower than 3% at the wavelength of 600 nm and the weighted average reflectances (400-1000 nm) is 11.6%. The obtained characteristics indicate that Er2O3 films could be a promising candidate for antireflection coatings in solar cells.     

Er_2O_3薄膜型热辐射体的制备与性能研究

调制辐射体的可见和近红外区域的辐射光谱与光伏电池吸收光谱的匹配是开发高性能热光伏电池技术的关键.采用电子束蒸发在单晶硅衬底上制备金属Er薄膜并进行后氧化处理制备Er_2O_3薄膜型辐射体.X射线衍射结果表明薄膜结晶良好,且Si基底对Er_2O_3薄膜的晶体结构没有显著影响.X射线光电子能谱拟合结果表明薄膜中Er元素和O元素符合Er_2O_3的化学计量比.高温近红外光谱测试结果表明,样品在1550 nm左右出现了明显的Er~(3+)离子的特征辐射峰,这与GaSb光电池的吸收光谱相匹配.     

Ferromagnetism in Eu-doped ZnO films deposited by radio-frequency magnetic sputtering

This paper reports that Eu-doped ZnO films were successfully deposited on silicon (100) by radio-frequency magnetic sputtering. The x-ray diffraction patterns indicate that Eu substitutes for Zn in the lattice. Ferromagnetic loops were obtained by using superconducting quantum interference device at 10 K and room temperature. No discontinuous change was found in both of the zero-field-cooled and field-cooled curves. The observed ferromagnetism in Eu-doped ZnO can be attributed to a single magnetic phase. The saturation magnetisation decreased remarkably for the Eu-doped ZnO prepared by introducing 5% of oxygen in the sputtering gas or by the post annealing in O2, suggesting that the defects play key roles in the development of ferromagnetism in Eu-doped ZnO films.

用射频反应溅射法在Si（111）衬底上制备了C轴取向的多晶ZnO薄膜，通过不同温度的退火处理，研究了退火对多晶ZnO薄膜结构和发光特性的影响.由x射线衍射得知，随退火温度的升高，晶粒逐渐变大，薄膜中压应力由大变小至出现张应力.光致发光测量发现，样品在430nm附近有一光致发光峰, 峰的强度随退火温度升高而减弱，联合样品电阻率随退火温度升高而逐渐变大的测量及能级图，推测出ZnO薄膜中的蓝光发射主要来源于锌填隙原子缺陷能级与价带顶能级间的跃迁. 关键词： ZnO薄膜 退火 光致发光 射频反应溅射
