Near infrared lights emission of Ar-40(16+) impacting on metal surfaces

The highly charged ion Ar-40(16+) with the velocity (kinetic energy E (K)=150 keV, velocity V=8.5x10(5) m/s) smaller than Bohr velocity (V (Bohr)=2.9x10(6) m/s) was found to hove impacts on the surfaces of metals Ni, Mo, Au and Al, and the Ar atomic infrared light lines and X-rays spectra were simultaneously measured. The experimental results show that the highly charged ion that captures electrons is neutralized, and the multiply-excited hollow atom forms. The hollow atom cascade decay radiates lights from infrared to X-ray spectrum. The intensity of infrared lights shows that the metallic work functions play an important role in the neutralization process of highly charged ions during their interaction with metallic surfaces, which verifies the classical over-the-barrier model.

Blue-violet luminescence double peak of In-doped films prepared by radio frequency sputtering

ZnO films doped with different contents of indium were prepared by radio frequency sputtering technique. The structural, optical and emission properties of the films were characterized at room temperature using XRD, XPS, UV-vis-NIR and PL techniques. Results showed that the indium was successfully incorporated into the c-axis preferred orientated ZnO films, and the In-doped ZnO films are of over 80% optical transparency in the visible range. Furthermore, a double peak of blue-violet emission with a constant energy interval (similar to 0.17 eV) was observed in the PL spectra of the samples with area ratio of indium chips to the Zn target larger than 2.0%. The blue peak comes from the electron transition from the Zn-i level to the top of the valence band and the violet peak from the In-Zn donor level to the V-Zn level, respectively.

低速~(40)Ar~(17+)离子入射金属Be表面发射的近红外光谱线和X射线谱；Infrared Light and X-ray Emissions of ~(40)Ar~(17+) Impacting on Be Surface ；

用速度不同的(动能EK=272和357keV,速度v=1.14×106和1.72×106m/s)的高电荷态离子40Ar17+分别入射金属Be表面,同时测量这种相互作用过程中产生的近红外光谱线和X射线谱。实验结果表明,在低速范围内(速度小于玻尔速度vBohr=2.19×106m/s),速度较小的40Ar17+离子在到达金属的表面临界距离Rc到进入表面(2—3原子层)的进程中,形成了较多的高激发态Ar原子,其退激辐射较强的光谱线,进而验证了经典过垒模型。
