Double ionization of helium in collision with 20-500-keV/amu Cq+ and Oq+ (q=1-3) ions

Target ionization and projectile charge changing were investigated for 20-500 keV/u Cq+, Oq++He (q=1-3) collisions. Double- to single-ionization ratios R-21 of helium associated with no projectile charge change (direct ionization), single-electron capture, and single-electron loss were measured. The cross-section ratio R-21 depends strongly on the collision velocity v, the projectile charge state q, and the outgoing reaction channel. Meanwhile, a model extended from our previous work [J. X. Shao, X. M. Chen, and B. W. Ding, Phys. Rev. A 75, 012701 (2007)] is presented to interpret the above-mentioned dependences. Good agreement is found between the model and the experimental data.

Optimizing the GaAs capping layer growth of 1.3 mu m InAs/GaAs quantum dots by a combined two-temperature and annealing process at low temperatures

We report on optimizing the GaAs capping layer growth of 1.3 mu m InAs quantum dots (QDs) by a combined two-temperature and annealing process at low temperatures using metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The initial part (tnm) of the capping layer is deposited at a low temperature of 500 degrees C, which is the same for the growth of both the QDs and a 5-nm-thick In0.15Ga0.85As strain-reducing capping layer on the QDs, while the remaining part is grown at a higher temperature of 560 degrees C after a rapid temperature rise and subsequent annealing period at this temperature. The capping layer is deposited at the low temperatures (<= 560 degrees C) to avoid postgrowth annealing effect that can blueshift the emission wavelength of the QDs. We demonstrate the existence of an optimum t (=5 nm) and a critical annealing time (>= 450s) during the capping, resulting in significantly enhanced photoluminescence from the QDs. This significant enhancement in photoluminescence is attributed to a dramatic reduction of defects due to the optimized capping growth. The technique reported here has important implications for realizing stacked 1.3 mu m InAs/GaAs QD lasers. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

High-speed and high-power 1.3 mu m InGaAsP/InP selective proton-bombarded buried crescent lasers with optical field attenuation regions

High-speed and high-power InGaAsP/lnP selective proton-bombarded buried crescent (SPB-BC) lasers with optical field attenuation regions were reported. The defect of proton bombardment can not affect the lifetime of the SPB-BC laser because the optical field attenuation region obstructs the growth and propagation of defects. A CW light output over 115 mW was achieved at room temperature using a 500 mu m long cavity SPB-BC laser. The 3 dB bandwidth was 8.5 GHz, and the lifetime was about 8.5 x 10(5) h. The capacitance of four kinds of current blocking structures was first measured in our experiment, and the results shown that the capacitance of proton-bombarded pnpn structure was not only less than that of pnpn current blocking structure, but also less than that of semi-insulating Fe-InP structure.

Growth of near planar Si0.5Ge0.5 epitaxial layers directly on Si substrate by UHV/CVD at 500℃

The relationship between Ge content of Si1-xGex layers and growth conditions was investigated via UHV/CVD system at relative low temperature of 500℃. Si1-xGex layers were in a metastable state in this case. 10-period strained 3.0 nm- Si0.5Ge0.5/3.4 nm- Si multi quantum wells were obtained directly on Si substrate. Raman Measurement, high resolution electron microscopy and photoluminescence were used to characterize the structural and optical properties. It is found that such relative thick Si0.5Ge0.5/Si multi quantum wells are still near planar and free of dislocations, that makes it exploit applications to electrical and optical devices.

Highly 3,4-selective living polymerization of isoprene with rare earth metal fluorenyl N-heterocyclic carbene precursors

Fluorenyl modified N-heterocyclic carbene ligated rare earth metal bis(alkyl) complexes, (Flu-NHC)Ln(CH2SiMe3)2 (Flu-NHC = (C13H8CH2CH2(NCHCCHN)C6H2Me3-2,4,6); Ln = Sc (1a); Ln = Y (1b); Ln = Ho (1c); Ln = Lit (1d)), were synthesized and fully characterized by NMR and X-ray diffraction analyses. Complexes Ib-d with the activation of (AlBu3)-Bu-i and [Ph3C][B(C6F5)4] exhibited high activity, medium syndio-but remarkably high 3,4-regio-selectivity, and the unprecedented livingness for the polymerization of isoprene. Such distinguished catalytic performances could be maintained under various monomer-to-initiator ratios (500-5000) and broad polymerization temperatures (25-80 degrees C).

Fabrication and Luminescence Properties of One-Dimensional CaMoO4: Ln(3+) (Ln = Eu, Tb, Dy) Nanofibers via Electrospinning Process

One-dimensional CaMoo(4):Ln(3+) (Ln = Eu, Tb, Dy) nanofibers have been prepared by a combination method of sol-gel and electrospinning process. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), photoluminescence (PL), and low voltage cathodoluminescence (CL) as well as kinetic decays were used to characterize the resulting samples. SEM and TEM analyses indicate that the obtained precursor fibers have a uniform size, and the as-formed CaMoO4:Ln(3+) nanofibers consist of nanoparticles. Under ultraviolet excitation, the CaMoO4 samples exhibit a blue-green emission band with a maximum at 500 nm originating from the MoO42- groups. Due to an efficient energy transfer from molybdate groups to dopants, CaMoO4:Ln(3+) phosphors show their strong characteristic emission under ultraviolet excitation and low-voltage electron beam excitation.

Polyimides Derived from 1,4-Bis [3-oxy-(N-aminophthalimide)] Benzene

A novel diamine, 1,4-bis [3-oxy-(N-aminophthalimide)] benzene (BOAPIB), was synthesized from 1,4-bis [3-oxy-(N-phenylphthalimide)] benzene and hydrazine. Its structure was determined via IR, H-1 NMR, and elemental analysis. A series of five-member ring, hydrazine-based polyimides were prepared from this diamine and various aromatic dianhydrides via one-step polycondensation in p-chlorophenol. The inherent viscosities of these polyimides were in the range of 0.17-0.61 dL/g. These polymers were soluble in polar aprotic solvents and phenols at room temperature. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed that the 5% weight-loss temperatures of the polyimides were near 450 degrees C in air and 500 degrees C in nitrogen. Dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA) indicated that the glass-transition temperatures (T(g)s) of these polymers were in the range of 265-360 degrees C. The wide-angle X-ray diffraction showed that all the polyimides were amorphous.

Thermoluminescence properties of Ce3+-doped LiSr4(BO3)(3) phosphor

Borates LiSr4(BO3)(3) were synthesized by high-temperature solid-state reaction. The thermoluminescence (TL) and some of the dosimetric characteristics of Ce3+-activated LiSr4(BO3)(3) were reported. The TL glow curve is composed of only one peak located at about 209 degrees C between room temperature and 500 degrees C. The Optimum Ce3+ concentration is 1 mol% to obtain the highest TL intensity. The TL kinetic parameters of LiSr4(BO3)(3):0.01Ce(3+) were studied by the peak shape method. The TL dose response is linear in the protection dose ranging from 1 mGy to 1 Gy. The three-dimensional thermoluminescence emission spectra were also studied, peaking at 441 and 474 nm due to the characteristic transition of Ce3+.

Citrate-gel synthesis and luminescent properties of alpha-Zn-3(PO4)(2) doped with Eu3+

By using inorganic salts as raw materials and citric acid as complexing agent, alpha-Zn-3(PO4)(2) and Eu3+ doped alpha-Zn-3(PO4)(2) phosphor powders were prepared by a citrate-gel process. X-ray diffraction, (XRD), TG - DTA, FT - IR and luminescence excitation and emission spectra were used to characterize the resulting products. The results of XRD reveal that the powders begin to crystallize at 500 degreesC and pure alpha-Zn-3(PO4)(2) phase is obtained at 800 degreesC. And the results of XRD reveal that Eu3+ exists Lis EoPO(4) ill the powder. In the phosphor powders, the Eu3+ shows its characteristic red-orange (592 nm, D-5(0) - F-7(1)) emission and has no quenching concentration.
