analytical model and measurements of the target erosion depth profile of balanced and unbalanced planar magnetron cathodes

The erosion depth profile of planar targets in balanced and unbalanced magnetron cathodes with cylindrical symmetry is measured along the target radius. The magnetic fields have rotational symmetry. The horizontal and vertical components of the magnetic field B are measured at points above the cathode target with z = 2 x 10(-3) m. The experimental data reveal that the target erosion depth profile is a function of the angle. made by B with a horizontal line defined by z = 2 x 10(-3) m. To explain this dependence a simplified model of the discharge is developed. In the scope of the model, the pathway lengths of the secondary electrons in the pre-sheath region are calculated by analytical integration of the Lorentz differential equations. Weighting these lengths by using the distribution law of the mean free path of the secondary electrons, we estimate the densities of the ionizing events over the cathode and the relative flux of the sputtered atoms. The expression so deduced correlates for the first time the erosion depth profile of the target with the angle theta. The model shows reasonably good fittings to the experimental target erosion depth profiles confirming that ionization occurs mainly in the pre-sheath zone.

Estudo comparativo de soluções de materiais poliméricos em redes prediais de água e esgotos

O objetivo deste trabalho é estudar as tubagens de polímeros aplicadas nas redes prediais de águas e esgotos. A utilização deste tipo de material tem vindo a aumentar, mas o conhecimento por parte de projetistas e instaladores não tem vindo a acompanhar o ritmo de crescimento. Esta análise irá permitir um maior conhecimento dos materiais disponíveis e das suas caraterísticas próprias, o que induz a uma escolha acertada e a uma instalação adequada. No início do trabalho clarificou-se o significado e a origem dos polímeros, contando a sua história. Visitou-se a fábrica de tubos Fopil para pesquisar o processamento de polímeros. Explicou-se o fabrico de polímeros, que varia de acordo com as propriedades e aplicações desejadas. Os tubos poliméricos disponíveis no mercado para abastecimento de águas e esgotos foram analisados em relação às suas caraterísticas, vantagens e desvantagens e ligações disponíveis. Existem cuidados a ter no transporte, armazenamento e manuseamento dos tubos. Após a análise das caraterísticas técnicas, fez-se o estudo económico para os tubos existentes no mercado. Para isso foi considerado o abastecimento a um edifício multifamiliar com seis apartamentos. O projetista deve estar sempre informado, quer a nível tecnológico, quer a nível económico, para assim poder fazer a escolha mais acertada a nível de qualidade e a nível de preço. Ao realizar este estudo concluiu-se que nas instalações de redes de abastecimento de águas, o PB é o que tem o preço mais atrativo e tem caraterísticas ótimas. O PE-X tem o preço mais elevado, mas a sua qualidade não é proporcional ao seu preço. Nas instalações de redes de esgotos o material mais económico é o PP, que é o que apresenta as melhores caraterísticas.

Integrated didactics: an example of a curriculum model enhancing knowledge crossing

In this paper, we introduce an innovative course in the Portuguese Context, the Master's Course in “Integrated Didactics in Mother Tongue, Maths, Natural and Social Sciences”, taking place at the Lisbon School of Education and discussing in particular the results of the evaluation made by the students who attended the Curricular Unit - Integrated Didactics (CU-ID). This course was designed for in-service teachers of the first six years of schooling and intends to improve connections between different curriculum areas. In this paper, we start to present a few general ideas about curriculum development; to discuss the concept of integration; to present the principles and objectives of the course created as well as its structure; to describe the methodology used in the evaluation process of the above mentioned CU-ID. The results allow us to state that the students recognized, as positive features of the CU-ID, the presence in all sessions of two teachers simultaneously from different scientific areas, as well as invitations issued to specialists on the subject of integration and to other teachers that already promote forms of integration in schools. As negative features, students noted a lack of integrated purpose, applying simultaneously the four scientific areas of the course, and also indicated the need to be familiar with more models of integrated education. Consequently, the suggestions for improvement derived from these negative features. The students also considered that their evaluation process was correct, due to the fact that it was focused on the design of an integrated project for one of the school years already mentioned.

Numerical simulation of plasmonic effects in amorphous silicon induced by embedded aluminium nanoparticles

This work reports a theoretical study aimed to identify the plasmonic resonance condition for a system formed by metallic nanoparticles embedded in an a-Si: H matrix. The study is based on a Tauc-Lorentz model for the electrical permittivity of a-Si: H and a Drude model for the metallic nanoparticles. It is calculated the The polarizability of an sphere and ellipsoidal shaped metal nanoparticles with radius of 20 nm. We also performed FDTD simulations of light propagation inside this structure reporting a comparison among the effects caused by a single nanoparticles of Aluminium, Silver and, as a comparison, an ideally perfectly conductor. The simulation results shows that is possible to obtain a plasmonic resonance in the red part of the spectrum (600-700 nm) when 20-30 nm radius Aluminium ellipsoids are embedded into a-Si: H.

Visible range plasmonic effect produced by aluminium nanoparticles embedded in amorphous silicon

We present results, obtained by means of an analytic study and a numerical simulation, about the resonant condition necessary to produce a Localized Surface Plasmonic Resonance (LSPR) effect at the surface of metal nanospheres embedded in an amorphous silicon matrix. The study is based on a Lorentz dispersive model for a-Si:H permittivity and a Drude model for the metals. Considering the absorption spectra of a-Si:H, the best choice for the metal nanoparticles appears to be aluminium, indium or magnesium. No difference has been observed when considering a-SiC:H. Finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation of an Al nanosphere embedded into an amorphous silicon matrix shows an increased scattering radius and the presence of LSPR induced by the metal/semiconductor interaction under green light (560 nm) illumination. Further results include the effect of the nanoparticles shape (nano-ellipsoids) in controlling the wavelength suitable to produce LSPR. It has been shown that is possible to produce LSPR in the red part of the visible spectrum (the most critical for a-Si:H solar cells applications in terms of light absorption enhancement) with aluminium nano-ellipsoids. As an additional results we may conclude that the double Lorentz-Lorenz model for the optical functions of a-Si:H is numerically stable in 3D simulations and can be used safely in the FDTD algorithm. A further simulation study is directed to determine an optimal spatial distribution of Al nanoparticles, with variable shapes, capable to enhance light absorption in the red part of the visible spectrum, exploiting light trapping and plasmonic effects. © 2015 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
