Buffer gas beam coolers may become excellent beam preparation devices for high-resolution mass separation. The small beam
emittance provided makes efficient isobar resolution a realistic goal. In order to fulfill the needs of future facilities
providing high-intensity beams of rare isotopes, it is desirable to increase the beam intensity limit of such devices from
typically several tens of nanoamperes to microamperes. This requires the usage of high-voltage radiofrequencies in a low-pressure
gas environment. A buffer gas beam cooler, dedicated to this purpose, is under development at the NSCL. The study of voltage
breakdowns under such conditions and the design of an electrode system minimizing them is mandatory.

It has been established that undoped gallium crystals exhibit anti-Stokes radiation with energy corresponding to the interband recombination of these crystals. Its appearance is most probably determined by EL2 defects, and its intensity depends on the product of the cross sections for photoionization of electrons and the holes from these defects. 相似文献
The magnetotransport in a nondegenerate quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) electron system over superfluid helium has been investigated experimentally. The measurements are performed in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field B up to 2.6 T in the temperature range T=0.48–2.05 K in the system of conducting channels of 100–400 nm width. It is shown that the value of longitudinal magnetoresistance ρxx increases with B. In the electron-gas scattering region (T>0.9 ), the behaviour of ρxx agrees with classical Drude law. In the quantum transport regime, the self-consistent Born approximation (SCBA) theory for a 2D electron system over liquid helium describes the experimental data qualitatively. The deviation due to the difference of the experimentally studied Q1D system of the electrons in a parabolic potential well differs from theoretically analysed one. The experimental data agree with the theoretical calculation for the Q1D electron system at the weak magnetic field and the low temperature.
The negative magnetoresistance of the conducting channels has been observed in both the gas- and the ripplon-scattering region. These effects have been explained by weak carrier localization on the gas atoms at high temperature and by display of the quantum magnetotransport features in a mesoscopic system at low temperature. 相似文献
Experimental and theoretical investigations of the spectroscopy of molecules in superfluid helium droplets provide evidence for the key role of the first helium layer surrounding the dopant molecule in determining the molecule's spectroscopic features. Recent investigations of emission spectra of phthalocyanine in helium droplets revealed a doubling of all transitions. Herein, we present the emission spectra of Mg-phthalocyanine and of phthalocyanine-argon clusters in helium droplets, which confirm the splitting as a general effect of the helium environment. A scheme of levels is deduced from the emission spectra and attributed to quantized states of the first helium layer surrounding the dopant molecule. 相似文献
In this paper, examples are given of how calorimetric values can give greater certainty to phase equilibria calculated from thermodynamic data. Errors that may arise when phase diagram evaluations are carried out largely from the basis of Gibbs energy information only are illustrated by reference to recent evaluations of the Ti?Si system and the resulting calculated oxidation behaviour of titanium silicides. The importance of calorimetric values for calculation of metastable phase equilibria is demonstrated by results of work on the AlN?TiN hard-metal coating system. Finally, suggestions are made with regard to areas of work where calorimetric data are urgently needed. 相似文献
Conductivity of electrons in a quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) system over liquid helium in narrow channels with the parabolic profile of the potential well has been investigated at temperature T, from 0.4 to 1.8 K, for different driving electric fields and radius of channel curvature. The interval of linear electron densities varied from 2.18×103 up to 1.7×106 cm−1.
The inverse mobility (1/μeff) in the electron-ripplon scattering region at the high linear densities of charges in the channel increases with temperature decreasing. This anomalous behavior of the electron transport in the low-temperature region has been explained by either the electron ordering or the polaronic effects in confined conducting channels. The nonlinear behavior of the electron velocity as a function of a driving electric field is supposed to be due to Breg–Cherenkov radiation of the ripplons. The radiation occurred if the velocity of electrons in the channel approaches to the critical value. 相似文献
Measurements of nitrogen atom density, by means of NO chemical titration, along with an evaluation of the densities of some excited species N2(B, v=11), N2(B, v=2), N2(C, v=0), and N2+
(B,v=0), by means of a spectroscopic study of some bands of dinitrogen, are achieved along the flowing afterglow of a dinitrogen microwave plasma (2450 MHz) for several pressures. The concentrations obtained are in the following range: [N]10+15, [N2(B, 2)]10+9–10+10, [N2(B, 11)]10+8–10+9, [N2(C, 0)]10+6–10+7, [N2+
(B,0)]10+6-10+8(cm-3). From a kinetic study of the formation and decay of excited and charged species, an estimation of N2(A, v), N2(X, v, and N2+
(X) densities can be derived: [N2(A, v)]10+12, [N2(X, v6)]10+15–10+16, [N2(X, v12)]10+14–10+15, [N2+(X)]10+10(cm-3). 相似文献
A TEA CO2 laser (350 mJ–1.5 J, 10.6 μm, 200 ns, 10 Hz) was focused onto a metal sub-target under He as host gas at 1 atmospheric pressure with a small amount of impurity gas, such as water and ethanol vapors. It was found that the TEA CO2 laser with the help of the metal sub-target is favorable for generating a strong, large volume helium gas breakdown plasma at 1 atmospheric pressure, in which the helium metastable-excited state was then produced overwhelmingly. While the metal sub-target itself was never ablated. The helium metastable-excited state produced after the strong helium gas breakdown plasma was considered to play an important role in exciting the atoms. This was confirmed by the specific characteristics of the detected H emission, namely the strong intensity with low background, narrow spectral width, and the long lifetime. This technique can be used for gas and solid samples analysis. For nonmetal solid analysis, a metal mesh was introduced in front of the nonmetal sample surface to help initiation of the helium gas breakdown plasma. For metal sample, analysis can be carried out by combining the TEA CO2 laser and an Nd–YAG laser where the Nd–YAG laser is used to ablate the metal sample. The ablated atoms from the metal sample are then sent into the region of helium gas breakdown plasma induced by the TEA CO2 laser to be excited through the helium metastable-excited state. This technique can be extended to the analysis of other elements, not limited only to hydrogen, such as halogens. 相似文献
