36-segmented high magnetic field hexapole magnets for electron cyclotron resonance ion source

Two high magnetic field hexapoles for electron cyclotron resonance ion source (ECRIS) have successfully fabricated to provide sufficient radial magnetic confinement to the ECR plasma. The highest magnetic field at the inner pole tip of one of the magnets exceeds 1.5 T, with the inner diameter (i.d.)=74 mm. The other hexapole magnet provides more than 1.35 T magnetic field at the inner pole tip, and the i.d. is 84 mm. In this article, we discuss the necessity to have a good radial magnetic field confinement and the importance of a Halbach hexapole to a high performance ECRIS. The way to design a high magnetic field Halbach structure hexapole and one possible solution to the self-demagnetization problem are both discussed. Based on the above discussions, two high magnetic field hexapoles have been fabricated to be utilized on two high performance ECRISs in Lanzhou. The preliminary results obtained from the two ECR ion sources are given

Microstructural evolution in silicon implanted with chlorine ions

In the present work p-type Si specimens were implanted with Cl ions of 100 keV to successively increasing fluences of 1 x 10(15), 5 x 10(15), 1 x 10(16) and 5 x 10(16) ions cm(-2) and subsequently annealed at 1073 K for 30 min. The microstructure was investigated with the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in both the plane-view and the cross-sectional view. The implanted layer was amorphized after chlorine implantation even at the lowest ion fluence, while re-crystallization of the implanted layer occurs on subsequent annealing at 1073 K. In the annealed specimens implanted above the lowest fluence three layers along depth with different microstructures were found, which include a shallow polycrystalline porous layer, a deeper single-crystalline layer containing high density of gas bubbles, a well separated deeper layer composed of dislocation loops in low density. With increasing ion fluence the thickness of the porous polycrystalline layer increases. It is indicated that chlorine can suppress the epitaxial re-crystallization of implanted silicon, when the implant fluence of Cl ions exceeds a certain level.

Entrance channel dependence of the correlation function of IMFs in Ar-36+Sn-112,Sn-124 at 35MeV/u

The reduced velocity correlation functions of the Intermediate Mass Fragments (IMFs) were measured in the reactions of Ar-36+ Sn-112,Sn-124 at 35MeV/u. The anti-correlation at small reduced velocities is more pronounced in Ar-36+ Sn-124 system than that in Ar-36+ Sn-112 system. The difference of the correlation functions between the two reactions is mainly contributed by the particle pairs with high momenta. A three-body Coulomb repulsive trajectory code (MENEKA) is employed to calculate the emission time scale of IMFs for-the both systems. The time scale is 150fm/c in the Ar-36+ Sn-112 system and 120fm/c in the Ar-36+ Sn-124 system, respectively. A calculation based on an Isospin dependence Quantum Molecular Dynamics code (IQMD) reveals that the emission time spectrum of IMFs is shifted slightly leftwards in Ar-36+ Sn-124 compared with that in the Ar-16+ Sn-112 system, indicating a shorter emission time scale. Correspondingly, the central density of the hot nuclei decreases faster in Ar-36+ Sn-124 than in Ar-36+ Sn-112

Electron emission induced by the interaction of highly charged ions Pb-207(q+) (24 <= q <= 36) with solid surface of Si(110)

The electron emission induced by highly charged ions Pb-207(q+) (24 <= q <= 36) interacting with Si(110) surface is reported. The result shows that the electron emission yield Y has a strong dependence on the projectile charge state q, incidence angle psi and impact energy E. In fitting the experimental data we found a nearly 1/tan psi dependence of Y. Theoretical analysis shows that these processes are closely related to the process of potential electron emission based on the classical over-the-barrier model.

Experimental study of the U-238(S-36,3-5n)(269-271)Hs reaction leading to the observation of (270)Hs

The deformed doubly magic nucleus (270)Hs has so far only been observed as the four-neutron (4n) evaporation residue of the reaction Mg-26+Cm-248, where a maximum cross section of 3 pb was measured. Theoretical studies on the formation of (270)Hs in the 4n evaporation channel of fusion reactions with different entrance channel asymmetry in the framework of a two-parameter Smoluchowski equation predict that the reactions Ca-48+Ra-226 and S-36+U-238 result in higher cross sections due to lower reaction Q values, in contrast to simple arguments based on the reaction asymmetry, which predict opposite trends. Calculations using HIVAP predict cross sections for the reaction S-36+U-238 that are similar to those of the Mg-26+Cm-248 reaction. Here, we report on the first measurement of evaporation residues formed in the complete nuclear fusion reaction S-36+U-238 and the observation of (270)Hs, which is produced in the 4n evaporation channel, with a measured cross section of 0.8(-0.7)(+2.6) pb at 51-MeV excitation energy. The one-event cross-section limits (68% confidence level) for the 3n, 4n, and 5n evaporation channels at 39-MeV excitation energy are 2.9 pb, while the cross-section limits of the 3n and 5n channel at 51 MeV are 1.5 pb. This is significantly lower than the 5n cross section of the Mg-26+Cm-248 reaction at similar excitation energy.

PROJECTILE FRAGMENTATION OF Ar-36,Ar-40 INDUCED REACTIONS

Fragment yields for Z >= 5 from projectile fragmentation using primary beams of Ar-36,Ar-40 at 50 MeV/nucleon on Ni-64 target have been measured in RIBLL fragment separator. We compare the fragment cross sections with the predictions of the empirical EPAX parametrization of fragmentation cross-sections and Statistical Abration-Ablation model (SAA) by considering the RIBLL separator transmission rate. Isotope yield ratios between these two reactions were calculated and isoscaling parameters alpha and beta are extracted, their dependences on fragment atomic number Z and neutron number N were presented.

30,35MeV/u 36,40Ar＋112,124Sn反应中热核性质同位旋效应的实验研究

针对①中能反应中同位旋自由度是否达到平衡，②同位旋自由度对几中不同方法测量的核温度是否有影响 这两个基本问题，设计了用30和35MeV/u ~(36,40)Ar轰击~(112,124)Sn反应的实验方案。得到如下结果：对于前角5°处的耗散弹核碎裂产物，丰中子同位素与稳定核的产额比随产物出射动能的增加而减小，而丰质子子同位素与稳定核的产额比随动能的增加而增加，呈现明显的剪刀差分布特性。随耗散时间的增大，产物的平均中质比逐渐由弹核的平均中质比向系统的平均中质比过渡。这个结果说明在该反应中，同位旋自由度没有达到完全平衡。而对于20°处的DIC产物，上述剪刀差分布特性变得更不明显，这是同位旋自由度由非平衡向平衡过渡的表现。后角轻粒子的能谱分析表明，初始热核的同位旋会影响斜率核温度的提取，由于丰中子轻粒子~6He在~(40)Ar + ~(112)Sn系统中的蒸发被抑制，相比~(40)Ar + ~(112)Sn而言，其蒸发比较容易发生在衰变链早期，因此提取的温度偏高，同样，丰质子轻粒子~3He的温度在~(40)Ar + ~(112)Sn中略高。但中后角的同位素产额分析表明，反应系统的同位旋对双同位素比核温度几乎没有影响。核温度作为热核的热力学量，是独立于测量方法的，这种不同的方法得出的差异主要来源于同位旋对衰变机制的影响。作为一个尝试，将中高能反应中的熵的提取推广到这个能区，发现两个系统的熵几乎一致。在量子统计模型框架下，考察核温度与熵的关系发现，~(40)Ar + ~(112)Sn反应的挤出时刻密度略高于~(40)Ar + ~(112)Sn。

Electrochemical chlorine sensor with multi-walled carbon nanotubes as electrocatalysts

It has been reported for the first time that an electrochemical gas sensor mdified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) film as elctrocatalyst was fabricated for the determination of chlorine (Cl-2).Here, MWNTs and graphite were compared with each other in terms of their electrochemical properties using cyclic voltammetry. Cl-2 gas was allowed through the cathode surface of the sensor and the resulting galvanic effects were monitored. Results indicated that both of the MWNTs and graphite have the electrocatalytic activity for the reduction of Cl-2 while the MWNTs-modified electrode exhibited a higher accessible surface area in electrochemical reactions, excellent sensitivity, stable response, reproducibility and recovery for the determination of Cl-2.

Synthesis and characterization of the nanoporous ultrathin multilayer films based on molybdenum polyoxometalate (Mo-36)(n)

Ultrathin multilayer films of the wheel-shaped molybdenum polyoxometalate cluster (Mo-36)(n) and poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) have been prepared by the layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly method. The ((Mo-36)(n)/PAH)(m) multilayer films have been characterized by Xray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). UV-VIS measurements reveal regular film growth with each (Mo-36)(n) adsorption. The electrochemical behavior of the film at room temperature was investigated.

Truly chlorine-resistant polyamide reverse osmosis composite membrane

Truly chlorine-resistant polyamide reverse osmosis composite membranes were prepared by cross-linking the interface of the composite membrane. Such membranes possessed chlorine resistance one order of magnitude more than those of the commercially used polyamide composite membranes. The effect of the degree of cross-linking on chlorine resistance was also described. (C) 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
