DELINEATION OF DEFECTS IN SIMOX STRUCTURES USING A CHEMICAL ETCHING TECHNIQUE

Residual defects in the overlayer of fully annealed SIMOX material have been studied by means of a chemical etching technique. The etching procedure has been calibrated and an optimum recipe is reported. Observations using optical microscopy and transmission electron microscopy have been used to quantify the defect densities and good agreement between the two techniques has been established, confirming that the optimised chemical etching process can be used with confidence to determine the dislocation density for values < 10(7) cm-2.

Growth of high-quality relaxed In0.3Ga0.7As/GaAs superlattices

With a low strained InxGa1-xAs/GaAs(x similar to 0.01) superlattice (SL) buffer layer, the crystal quality of 50 period relaxed In0.3Ga0.7As/GaAs strained SLs has been greatly improved and over 13 satellite peaks are observed from X-ray double-crystal diffraction, compared with three peaks in the sample without the buffer layer. Cross-section transmission electron microscopy reveals that the dislocations due to superlattice strain relaxation are blocked by the SLs itself and are buried into the buffer layer. The role of the SL buffer layer lies in that the number of the dislocations is reduced in two ways: (1) the island formation is avoided and (2) the initial nucleation of the threading dislocations is retarded by the high-quality growth of the SL buffer layer. When the dislocation pinning becomes weak as a result of the reduced dislocation density, the SLs can effectively move the threading dislocations to the edge of the wafer.

Efficient Mode-locked and Q-switched Nd∶YVO_4 Laser with Semiconductor Saturable Absorber Mirror

We reported an efficient diode pumped Nd ! YVO, 1 064 nm laser passively mode-locked and Q-switched by a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror(SESAM). At the incident pump power of 7. 5 W, 2. 81 W average output power was obtained during stable CW mode locking with a repetition rate of 111 MHz. The optical conversion efficiency was 37. 5% , and the slope efficiency was 39%. So far as we know, this is the highest optical-optical conversion efficiency with a SESAM at home.

Investigation of GaAs/AlGaAs interfaces by reflectance-difference spectroscopy

The in-plane optical anisotropy of several GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well samples with different well widths has been measured at room temperature by reflectance-difference spectroscopy (RDS). The RDS line shapes are found to be similar in all the samples examined here, which dominantly consist of two peak-like signals corresponding to 1HH-->1E and 1LH-->1E transition. As the well width is decreased, or the 1 ML InAs layer is inserted at one interface, the intensity of the anisotropy increases quickly. Our detail analysis shows that the anisotropy mainly arises from the anisotropic interface roughness. The results demonstrate that the RDS technique is sensitive to the interface structures.

辽东次生林土壤呼吸及主要组分分离与量化

土壤呼吸是森林生态系统碳循环的重要组成部分，对土壤呼吸的主要组分根系呼吸和土壤微生物呼吸进行分离并量化，对于了解土壤碳释放规律、估算生态系统土壤碳的年际通量以及预测气候变化条件下根系或土壤微生物对土壤碳释放格局的影响具有重要意义。本文采用挖壕法测定辽东山区蒙古栎林、杂木林和胡桃楸林的土壤表面CO2通量，并同步分析土壤水热因子及土壤有机质、N含量、根系生物量、土壤酶活性、土壤微生物生物量等。研究结果表明：（1）辽东山区次生林0-10cm土壤有机质含量为9.29-18.15%，全氮含量为0.43-0.90%，pH值为5.67-6.19；次生林生长季细根生物量平均为152.61- 447.79 g/m2，粗根生物量平均为255.42-507.42 g/m2，根系总量平均为540.93-955.22 g/m2；土壤酶活性季节变化明显，且具垂直分布特征，蒙古栎林的土壤转化酶、淀粉酶和脱氢酶活性最高，胡桃楸林最低，胡桃楸林过氧化氢酶活性相对最大；土壤微生物量碳、氮的季节变化呈明显的单峰曲线并与土壤温度相关，土壤微生物量碳氮之间具显著相关性（P<0.05）。（2）次生林土壤总呼吸、根呼吸和土壤微生物呼吸具明显的日、季变化规律，生长季根呼吸贡献相对较低，胡桃楸林根呼吸贡献率为34.0-34.8%，蒙古栎林为17.9-28.4%，杂木林为14.7-35.3%；土壤微生物呼吸贡献率为66.0-85.3%，高于根呼吸贡献率，说明辽东山区次生林土壤微生物呼吸决定土壤总呼吸的变化趋势。（3）土壤呼吸与地下5cm土壤温度呈指数函数关系，土壤总呼吸的Q10值为1.29-2.30，微生物呼吸的Q10值为1.28-2.09，根呼吸的Q10值为1.29-3.72；土壤总呼吸、微生物呼吸、根呼吸与土壤含水量均无明显相关关系；蒙古栎林根呼吸与细根生物量显著相关，杂木林根呼吸与粗根生物量及根系总生物量显著相关，胡桃楸林根呼吸与根系生物量总量显著相关（P<0.05）；微生物呼吸与淀粉酶、转化酶、脱氢酶、过氧化氢酶均无显著相关性（除胡桃楸林与过氧化氢酶显著相关）；微生物呼吸与土壤微生物量碳、氮均呈显著线性相关关系（P<0.05）。（4）蒙古栎林土壤总呼吸、根呼吸、土壤微生物呼吸年际碳释放量分别为572.78、147.78和425.59 g C m-2a-1，杂木林分别为403.12、108.92、297.51 g C m-2a-1，胡桃楸林分别为519.47、173.75、345.72 g C m-2a-1；生长季和非生长季通过根呼吸释放的碳量均小于分解土壤有机质的微生物呼吸释放的碳量，非生长季次生林土壤碳释放量为39.21-152.04 g C m-2a-1，占全年呼吸总量的10-29%，说明冬季土壤碳释放量不能忽略。
