Part of results of research on satellite heat control under the Harvest Project of the National 973 Program is reported.In accordance with the “minimized nucleus” requirement of the satellite,the thermal conductivity of the dielectric FCC argon-crystal nano-film in the normal direction is predicted using the equilibrium molecular dynamic (EMD) and non-equilibrium molecular dynamic (NEMD) methods. The calculated results are compared with the experimental value of the bulk cryastal.Our calculation shows that the thermal conductivity of the thin films is much lower than that of its bulk conterpart,and the size-effect is significant;it increses nearly linearly with increasing thickness in the thickness range of 2.124—5.310nm.

We present a field method for solving the Whittaker equations.One of the field variables is considered as a function of other variables and time,and the fundamental partial differential equation for the function is established.If the complete integral of the partial differential equation can be obtained,the solution of the Whittaker equations are obtained by solving the algebraic equations.

In this paper, we use the solution of the Fokker-Planck equation for non-degenerate parametric amplification to deduce the condition of demonstration of the EPR paradox. The numerical simulation shows that the optimum realization of EPR paradox can be achieved by adjusting the degree of squeezing, and this is the best condition for demonstrating the EPR paradox for a given finite loss k.

This paper investigates the synchronization design for a class of chaotic systems with uncertainties in which all state variables are not measured. The design makes use of an observer with a controller. Assuming the boundedness of chaotic attractors and limited cycles, the approach, which is both global and not relying on complete knowledge of the systems involved, is rigorously proved by means of Lyapunov theory. Computer simulation results illustrate the validity of the method.

This article reports a crisis in a system described by a concatenation of a conservative and a dissipative mapping. The special feature of the crisis lies in its special escaping hole. A fat fractal forbidden net, induced by interaction between discontinuous and noninvertible properties, introduces rippled-like attraction basins of two periodic attractors, which appear after the crisis when a chaotic attractor suddenly loses stability. There are small areas, which serve as escaping holes and are dominated by strong dissipation as well as confined by the boundary of forbidden region only in the vicinity of each periodic point. To our knowledge, the crisis has not been reported before.

Recent investigation has shown that the permanent magnet synchronous motor(PMSM) may have chaotic behaviors for cortain values of parameters or under certain working conditions,which threatens the secure and stable operation of motor-driven.Hence,it is important to study methods of controlling or suppressing chaos in PMSM.Using the exact linearization theory of differential geometry,a law of controlling chaos in PMSM is deduced in this paper, and then,the process of controlling is simulated and analyzed.Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the deduced control law is effective and its control property is better than that of other methods.Our results may help to maintain the system's secure operation.

This paper discusses the degree distribution of a type of social networks and some technological networks with similar topological structures. Firstly, we propose a most simplified model and try to show analytically that the degree distribution and the act degree distribution are well consistent, but the distribution of the number of the nodes inside an act have much smaller influence on the degree distribution. Secondly, we perform numerical simulations in a more general situation of the model, so as to show that the above mentioned conclusion is rather universal. This model leads to a conclusion that these generalized collaboration networks usually have a degree distribution between the power law and the exponential function. In the last part of the article, we introduce very briefly the results of the empirical statistical investigation on some practical collaboration networks to show that the model is valid for generalized collaboration networks.

In the framework of the finite temperature Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach including the contribution of the microscopic three-body force, the single nuclear potential and the nucleon effective mass in hot nuclear matter at various temperatures and densities have been calculated by using the hole-line expansion for mass operator, and the effects of the three-body forces and the ground state correlations on the single nucleon potential have been investigated. It is shown that both the ground state correlations and the three-body force affect considerably the density and temperature dependence of the single nucleon potential. The rearrangement correction in the single nucleon potential is repulsive and it reduces remarkably the attraction of the single nucleon potential in the low-momentum region. The rearrangement contribution due to the ground state correlations becomes smaller as the temperature rises up and becomes larger as the density increases. The effect of the three-body force on the ground state correlations is to reduce the contribution of rearrangement. At high densities, the single nucleon potential containing both the rearrangement correction and the contribution of the three-body force becomes more repulsive as the temperature increases.

An isospin degree of freedom is inserted into the momentum dependent interaction in the quantum molecular dynamics model to obtain an isospin dependent momentum interaction given in a form practically usable in isospin dependent quantum molecular dynamics model. We investigate the entrance channel effects for the role of isospin momentum dependent interaction on the isospin fractionation ratio and its dynamical mechanism in the intermediate energy heavy ion collisions. It is found that the isospin dependent momentum interaction induces a significant reduction of isospin fractionation ratio under all entrance channel conditions. However the strong dependence of isospin fractionation ratio on the symmetry potential is preserved after considering the isospin degree of freedom in the momentum dependent interaction.

Using high-deposition-pressure technique, high-quality microcrystalline silicon film was prepared by radio-frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (RF-PECVD) combined with rapid thermal treatment. The volume fractions of the amorphous and microcrystalline phases and optical properties of microcrystalline silicon were carefully studied by Raman spectra, reflectance spectra and transmittance spectra. The results show a red shift of the absorption edge of microcrystalline silicon, which can be due to the increase in the volume fractions of the amorphous and microcrystalline phase and decrease in the band tail states.

Devices using red phosphorescent dye as dopant with exciton blocking layer were constructed. The device structure is ITO/CuPc/NPB/TPBi:Btp2Ir(acac)/TPBi/Alq/LiF/Al. The EL spectra, luminance-current, efficiency-current characteristics of the device have been investigated. At the CIE coordinates x=0.62,y=0.35,efficiency 2.43cd /A has been achieved. At 20mA/cm2 and 400mA/cm2, luminance is 431cd/m2 and 4798 cd/m2, respectively. The effects of the emitting layer thickness on efficiency and EL spectra of the device have been studied also. With the decrease of the emitting layer thickness, efficiency decreases and the blue band of the El spectra increases. For the thickness d2Ir(acac) HOMO energy level. For the thickness d>20nm, the decrease of the efficiency is attributed to the added invalid emitting-layer and more annihilation centers.

Our study indicates that the number of trapped Rb atoms in a magneto-optical trap (MOT) strongly depends on the trapping laser intensity and detuning, the repumping laser intensity and the magnetic gradient. We estimate the trapped-atom numbers changing with the trapping laser intensity and detuning, using a two-level system model. The theoretical results are in qualitative agreement with the experimental results. The experimental results also show an obvious dependence of the trapped-atom numbers on repumping laser intensity and the magnetic gradient, which the simple theory cannot account for. These studies are helpful for selecting suitable experimental parameters to achieve larger numbers of cold atoms.

In this paper, we propose a new scheme to guide cold atoms (or cold molecules) using a bundle of four single-mode optical fibers with a sub-micrometer size, and calculate the evanescent-wave field in the hollow region of four-fiber bundle and its optical potential for 85Rb atoms. Our study shows that such a blue-detuned hollow evanescent-wave field can also be used to realize the laser waveguide of cold atoms (or cold molecules), and, compared with the traditional atomic guiding scheme using a hollow optical fiber, our scheme is not only simple and cheap, but also easier to realize the single-mode waveguide of cold atomic matter-wave with high efficiency.

The photoionization and photodissociation processes of C2Cl4 were investigated under the supersonic molecular beam conditions by using a reflectron-time-of-flight mass spectrometer (TOF-MS) and vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photons from synchrotron radiation source. The photoionization mass spectrum and the photoionization efficiency (PIE) curves of the parent ion and some fragment ions were measured. The appearance potentials of these ions are obtained from their PIE curves. The formation enthalpies of some major ions and the dissociation energy of C2Cl4 have been evaluated from these data. According to the experimental results and the energy calculated by G1 theory, the main possible channels of dissociative photoionization of C2Cl4 have been discussed. In the future, we can detect C2Cl4 with single photon ionization(SPI)-TOFMS technique using 118.0nm laser radiation. This is based on the mass spectrum obtained at the wavelenth by using synchrotron radiation source.

First principles calculations have been used to study the various surface reconstructions, local density of states of surface atoms, and the local magnetic moments of the Mn constituents in Mn/GaAs(001) surface. It is found that the Mn atoms will act as donors and donate as many electrons as required by the GaAs surface. The local magnetic moment of Mn being an important factor in surface magnetic properties can be deduced directly from the reconstruction by electron counting.

Electron beam lithography has high sensitivity since it is free from limitation from diffraction effect. It will be the mostcommon technique of the next generation lithography to replace the conventional optical lithography. The proximity effect is the most important limitation of the sensitivity of lithography,which is simulated with Monte Carlo method in this paper.The influence on proximity effect of the shape and energy of electron beam and the material and depth of substrate is analyzed. The simulation results are compared with the experimental data and are found to fit well. It is found that, the proximity effect shown by Gaussian shaped electron beam is much larger than that by ideal electron beam, and lager atomic number, thicker substrate and lower energy of the electron beam will cause lager proximity effect independently.

By combining the self-consistent field theory for polymers with the Helfrich elasticity theory of membrane, the polymer anchored infinite membrane is investigated. Both the density distribution of the polymer and deformation of the membrane are obtained. Close to the anchoring site,the membrane has the conical shape and bends away from the polymer due to the membrane's impenetrability to the polymer and the confined space for the polymer, which is consistent with previous theoretical results and Monte Carlo simulations. Moreover, the interaction between the membrane and polymer chain length, and the effects of bending rigidity and surface tension on the deformation of the membrane are investigated.

Using optimum valence bond scheme which reduces the computation effort, we study systematically the properties of the critical structures (critical points) of small clusters (up to four atoms) of elements in the second and third row of the periodic table. We also show the evolution process of the clusters from two atoms to four atoms. By examining the electronic structures of all clusters, we can understand why the four-atom clusters for specific elements can have three-dimensional structures with Td symmetry. More interestingly, comparing the variation of the binding energy of such small clusters with the melting points and boiling points of corresponding pure element materials, we can understand the effect of the critical structures in the melting and boiling processes.

Possible geometrical structures and relative stability of MgmBn(m=1,2;n=1—4) clusters are studied by using the hybrid density functional theory(B3LYP) with 6-31G basis sets. For the most stable isomers of MgmBn(m=1,2;n=1—4) clusters, the electronic structure, vibrational properties, bond properties, ionization potential, polarizability and hyperpolarizability are analyzed. The calculated results show that most of the optimized MgmBn(m=1,2;n=1—4) clusters have planar structure, the B-B and B-Mg bonds are coexisting in the cluster, but the Mg-Mg bonds are infrequent in the clusters. The bond length of B-B is about 0.153—0.182nm and that of Mg-B is 0.221—0.231nm. The outcome of population analysis suggests that there is an electronegative center in the cluster, the other B and Mg atoms with positive charge are located at apexes of the cluster.

We have studied the effective refraction index of the guided wave mode in periodic layered ferrite-dielectric/metal film composites. Using the equivalent transmission line approach we have analyzed and calculated the dispersion characters and then the effective refraction index of the composites. We have found that the effective refraction index of the composites will be negative within a certain frequencies only when the wave is in TE mode. The loss of the composite is closely related to the dielectric layers, which can be effectively reduced by decrease the dielectric loss. However, too small dielectric loss results in disappearing of the negative refraction index.

The loss of the composite is closely related to the dielectric layers, which can be effectively reduced by decrease the dielectric loss. However, too small dielectric loss results in disappearing of the negative refraction index.
Recently, the coherent combining of high power fiber laser array has become a hotspot of research internationally, and the phase control electronics contributed greatly to the success of the coherent combining. A high-speed wavefront sensor is introduced to sample the wavefront and actively control the phase state of each individual optical fiber in a high average power fiber laser array,and accordingly the phase-locked output of the whole system is achieved.A single signal lightwave is taken as example in the paper,the research results are presented.We conclude from the research results that when closing the phase control feedback loop the phasefront can be locked to the quiescent state of phase.

The effect of number of unit cells of the fcc photonic crystals on the property of the band gaps was investigated experimentally. Fcc photonic crystals with different numbers of cells were fabricated by using recording materials of different thickness in holography. Their transmitted spectra of the band gaps were measured. A guiding rule was given: a photonic crystal which can be practically used should have 50 unit cells at least.

Based on the kinetic process of UV Cu+ laser in longitudinal nanosecond-pulsed discharge, the necessary condition for the population inversion between the upper and lower laser levels has been obtained. The experimental phenomenon that the laser power increases rapidly with the decrease of the discharge tube aperture has been analyzed theoretically. It is pointed out that the radiation trapping of lower laser level could be restrained effectively by reducing the tube radius, resulting in the increase of depopulation rate of lower laser level and the laser power.

A theoretic model has been established to describe the cataphoresis dynamics in high repetition rate (HRR) pulsed discharge metal vapor lasers (MVLs). The analytic solutions for transient and steady-state diffusion equations of metal vapor concentration are obtained. The axial distribution processes of metal vapors in HRR pulsed discharge He-Sr+ and He-Cd+ lasers have been calculated. It shows that the axial metal vapor distribution between the metal source and the cathode reaches sufficient homogeneity in about 2s, thus ensuring the stable output characteristics of cataphoresis MVLs.

It is reported that fluorescent microtubules may break under irradiation. However, the process and mechanism are not well understood. In this paper, we study the process of light-induced microtubule breaking by optical tweezers and find the breakup of protofilaments in microtubule is not simultaneous but proceeds step-by-step. After a series of biological experiments, we confirm that free radicals are the main reason for the photosensitive breaking of microtubule. According to the results of optical tweezers experiments, the mechanism of free radicals acting on microtubule is infered.

Single-shot damage morphology of magnesium fluoride induced by femtosecond laser pulse was studied with scanning electron microscope (SEM). The laser pulses used were 800 nm central wavelength. By the linear relationship between the area of damage spot and the logarithm of the laser energy, we measured the dependence of damage threshold on the pulse duration ranging from 55 femtosecond (fs) to 750 fs. We have calculated the two-photon absorption in the conduction band and improved the multiple-equation model (Phys. Rev. Lett. 92 187401, 2004). The experimental results are well explained by our model.

We have applied two-photon resonant nondegenerate four-wave mixing (NFWM) with a resonant intermediate state to measure the energy levels of the Ba even-parity J=0 and J=2 series. Differing from other experiment techniques, our method is a pure optical technique. Instead of detecting electrons or ions, the signal here is a coherent light. Two-photon resonant NFWM is a Doppler-free spectroscopy when the incident laser beams have narrow bandwidths.

Based on plane wave expansion method, the influence of factors such as lattice structure, dielectric constant ratio and filling ratio on three-dimensional photonic crystals with fcc, diamond and woodpile structures is studied. Of these structures, the fcc structure, owing to its high symmetry, is only fit for close-packed lattice prepared by inverted-opal method. The diamond structure easily generates good complete band gaps with high band gap ratio, and also the complete forbidden band that is needed can be obtained by adjusting some parameters in the experiment. The woodpile structure can produce big band gaps in a wider parameter range than the other two structures, which offers convenience for preparing three-dimensional photonic crystals in the laboratory. For all three kinds of three-dimensional photonic crystal structures, their band gap width and band gap ratio can be improved with the increase of dielectric constant ratio. In this paper, some interesting phenomena not noticed in the former papers are also presented.

In this paper a square-lattice photonic crystal fiber with gradually increasing air-holes in a silica matrix has been put forward for the first time. The model field, dispersion, birefringence and confinement loss of the fibre fundamental mode are simulated by multipole method. It is found that low confinement loss can be realized under condition of fewer rings of air holes. Simulation shows that birefringence and dispersion of this square-lattice PCF are dominated by inner-ring air holes in the fibre. The simulation results of this paper are highly instructive for the fabrication of birefringent photonic crystal fibers.

A novel spectral phase interferometry reconstruction for ultrashort optical pulse measurement with high accuracy is presented to overcome the shortcomes of conventional SPIDER. The measured pulse and its two chirped and delayed replicas are mixed synchronously to generate a fringe-free interference pattern. By introducing a suitable small delay into the interference pattern the spectral phase of the measured pulse is retrieved directly and uniquely without using Fourier transformation. This technique is capable of characterizing pulses with long duration or/and complex phase structure.

A high sensitivity fiber-optic torsion sensor is described,which measures twist rate and determines twist direction simultaneously by using a novel ultra long-period fiber grating (ULPFG) with periods of up to several millimeters fabricated by high frequency CO2 laser pulses. The torsion characteristics of a ULPFG are analyzed based on the coupling theory and birefringence phenomena. The experimental results show that a higher torsion sensitivity of 0.2244nm/(rad/m) for high order resonant modes was obtained, which is four times higher than that of the long-period fiber grating written by high frequency CO2 laser pulses. Finally, an intensity-type demodulation approach for the realization of real-time torsion measurement is proposed and demonstrated based on the edge filtering effect of the ULPFG.

A new three-dimensional quasi-vectorial beam propagation method based on the series expansion (SE-QV-BPM) is proposed for simulating the optical rib waveguide and directional coupler based on InGaAs/InAlAs multiple quantum wells. For the same etched-depth, the confinement of TM mode in horizontal direction is shown to be stronger than that of TE mode, and the singular behaviors for TM modes at the corners are clearly observed. For the same gap width, the coupling length of TM mode for directional coupler is larger than that of TE mode. The effective indices and modal profiles of the quasi-vectorial fundamental TE and TM modes for shallow- and deep-etched rib waveguides and directional couplers are obtained. Besides, the evolution of the injected field with propagation distance through the directional coupler is demonstrated. The calculation has good efficiency due to the small size of the resulting matrix, and the rib structures can be conveniently dealt with since the sinusoidal functions are selected as the basis functions. Moreover, the variable transformation is introduced to avoid the boundary truncation.

The electromagnetic field induced by acoustic waves in a porous formation is investigated. By supposing the acoustic field is not influenced by its induced electromagnetic field, the governing equations for the coupled acoustic and electromagnetic fields are reduced to a set of Maxwell equations with a propagation current source. The Maxwell equations are then transformed into inhomogeneous vector Helmholtz equations by introducing Hertz vectors. Finally the electromagnetic field is formulated in terms of the solutions to the Helmholtz equations. This method is used to evaluate the electromagnetic field during seismoelectric logging in a porous formation.

The transport of runaway electrons in hot plasma can be comparatively easily measured by steady state or perturbation experiments, which provide runaway electron diffusivity Dr. The runaway diffusion coefficient has been obtained using four methods: (1) Dr is deduced from Plasma shift experiment; (2) Dr is deduced from its sawteeth oscillations behaviors of HXR flux and of SXR intensity; (3) Dr is deduced from microwave radiation intensity sawtoothing behaviors; (4) Dr is deduced from hard-X-ray bremsstrahlung spectra. The diffusivity can be interpreted in terms of a magnetic fluctuation level. The internal magnetic fluctuations level (b~r/BT) is estimated to be about (2—4)×10-4 in the HL-1M plasma. The results presented here demonstrate the effectiveness of using runaway transport techniques for determining internal magnetic fluctuations. A profile of the magnetic fluctuation level in the HL-1M can be estimated from Dr.

The laser light propagation inside the conical target has been studied by three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations. It is found that the existence of under-dense plasma significantly affects the light propagation and the generation of relativistic electrons. The laser light can be focused at the tip of the cone and the intensity increases up to tens of times in the focal spot. With the under-dense plasma the laser light focused intensity is decreased. The existence of under-dense plasmas favors the relativistic electron generation in the laser conical target interaction in enhancing the number and energy of relativistic electrons.

Effects of plasma density distributions on self-focusing of intense laser pulses propagating in an underdense cold plasma are investigated, where the laser intensity has a Gaussian distribution and the initial plasma density is cylindrical-symmetrically distributed. An evaluation function is derived to judge which type of plasma density distribution is more beneficial for the occurrence of self-focusing. Through analyzing and calculating the evaluation function, it is found that for a given laser field and with fixed initial plasma density along the central axis, which coincides with the axis of the laser beam, increasing plasma density with the distance from the axis favors self-focusing. Furthermore, the greater the density gradient, the more favorable. It is also found that the combined action of both relativistic and ponderomotive effects is of more advantage to self-focusing than that of relativistic effect alone. Numerical simulation confirms that the evaluation function is capable of accurately predicting the favorable role of plasma density distribution in producing laser self-focusing.

When an intense laser pulse propagates in a gaseous target, an ionization front is produced at the leading edge of the laser pulse, which moves at the speed of light. By use of a one-dimensional particle-in-cell code with the field ionization included, we simulate the interaction between the laser pulse and its ionization front. It is found that, because of the discontinunities in atomic ionization potentials for different ionization orders, a flat-top region of the electron density appears inside the ionization front at the beginning. The ionization induces blue shif in the laser frequency, which modifies the laser pulse into a step-like profile. This new pulse profile in turn shortens the flat-top region in the ionization front. Generally the ionization front evolves into several parts, corresponding to different ionization orders, with different plasma density gradients. The effects of different gas elements and initial gas densities on the produced ionization fronts have been investigated. The conditions ith regard to the laser intensity and gas species to produce steep density gradients in ionization fronts have been studied for applications in frequency up-conversion by use of counter-propagating light pulses. Finally, the spectrum evolution of the ionizing pulse is investigated and the resulting fine spectrum structure located between the fundamental and the second harmonic is analyzed.

An easy-operated and effective scheme is presented to generate a novel kind of atmospheric cold plasma millimeter jet. The jet operates with many kinds of working gas at atmosphere pressure, such as Ar, He and N2, in a capillary quartz dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) system powered by a pulsed power source with a frequency of 33kHz and variable voltage of 1—12kV. Via an CCD imager, the initial discharge filaments in the DBD gap are found to be transformed into diffusion discharge or glow-like discharge by the flowing gas through the DBD gap, and a plasma jet formed in the outlet of the capillary is viewed simultaneously. The critical velocity of the gas flow for the plasma jet formation is determined to be 3—8m/s for different working gases by a well-designed enthalpy probe. The jet range for a special gas can be changed by the increase of the gas flow velocity while the jet range for different gases varies a lot and the helium jet takes the longest range of about 44mm when the helium flows at a elocity of about 20m/s. Beyond the velocity limit of 20m/s for laminar helium flow, the jet of helium plasma becomes torrent and unstable and its range turns shorter. Based on the OES analysis of He plasma jets, it is determined that the excitation temperature of He jets lay in the range 2000K—3000K, which is much lower than the excitation temperature of a normal arc plasma torch and hints that the jet is cold especially when compared to the arc plasma torch.

Beyond the velocity limit of 20m/s for laminar helium flow, the jet of helium plasma becomes torrent and unstable and its range turns shorter. Based on the OES analysis of He plasma jets, it is determined that the excitation temperature of He jets lay in the range 2000K—3000K, which is much lower than the excitation temperature of a normal arc plasma torch and hints that the jet is cold especially when compared to the arc plasma torch.
Using self-fabricated equipment, new type carbon films with unfamiliar properties, high hardness and good electric conductivity were deposited on 1Cr18Ni9Ti substrate under deposition parameters of ion energy 2keV, pressure 2Pa, and methane ratio in hydrogen 10%. Process review shows that the substrate material is the key factor for the carbon films deposition, and the parameters of ion energy, pressure and methane ratio are impotent also. The grain size is less than 100nm and the film is smooth, dense and uniform as tested by AFM. Raman spectra show that there is only one broaden peak around 1580cm-1. The sheet resistance of the film is 1.6×104Ω/cm2 as measured with the ohmmeter. The micro-hardness of the film is 21.38GPa and the bulk elasticity is 420.65GPa as tested by nano-indenter. It is concluded that there may be carbon chain structure in this film.

We also investigated the main factors affecting the resistivity of the plasma channel.

Pattern formations in dielectric barrier discharge in argon at atmospheric pressure under different discharge conditions are investigated. Patterns undergo the transition sevies of hexagonal-square-square with glow background-hexagonal with glow background as the applied voltage is increased, and the spatial wavelength and the filament density change also. When the glow background appears under a certain discharge condition, the spatial wavelength and the filaments density remain constant and the number of discharge pulses of each filament in half cycle changes from one to two.

The structure, transport and magnetic properties of half doped Sm0.5Ca0.5MnO3 manganite has been systamatically studied. The results show that Sm0.5Ca0.5MnO3 compound has the O′orthorhombic structure and shows typical Jahn-Teller distortion. Throughout the temperature range used, the electric transport shows semiconducting behavior and there are no I-M transition and CMR effect. Meanwhile, it is found that the charge-order and antiferromagnetic transition temperatures of the system are around 270K and 200K, respectively, whereas at lower temperature there appears a typical spin-glass state around 41K with reentrant behavior. The negative magnetization is also observed in this compound. All these phenomena indicate that for the ground state of Sm0.5Ca0.5MnO3, there exists the competition mechanism of several complex magnetic interactions. Present study may provide abundant experimental information for understandig the mechanism of the strongly electron correlated system.

Three-dimensional molecular dynamics simulation of epitaxial growth of fcc aluminum film with a negative misfit of 0.05, under atomic deposition, has been carried out. An embedded atom method (EAM) potential is employed for computing atomic interaction in aluminum. Formation of misfit dislocation appears in the simulated growth process. Atomistic analysis of the film shows that, in the beginning the misfit dislocation consists of two Shockley partial dislocations with a stacking fault zone between them. The Burgers vectors of the two partial dislocations are of 〈211〉/6 type, and the width of the stacking fault is ~1.8 nm, which agrees well with theoretical calculation. During further deposition growth, the dislocation pair can slide, but their distance remains stable. Further analysis shows that the dislocation pair forms in a local surface disordering-ordering process, like the local melting-crystallization. Atomic scale squeezed-out tetrahedrons are found to form near the surface and soon slide back in the anor of statistical fluctuation. Under some circumstances, however, a squeezed-out tetrahedron causes disorder of its neighboring atoms, and developes into the observed local disorder zone, which later becomes the nucleation site for the formation of the Shockley dislocation pair.

The present paper investigates the formation and composition characteristics of Cu-based bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) in the inter-transition metal system Cu-Zr-Ti by using an “e/a-variant criterion” which is relevant to clusters. Three such composition lines, (Cu9/13Zr4/13)100-xTix, (Cu0.618Zr0.382)100-xTix and (Cu0.56Zr0.44)100-xTix, are defined in the Cu-Zr-Ti system. Among them, Cu9Zr4, Cu61.8Zr38.2 and Cu56Zr44 are specific Cu-Zr binary cluster compositions. Alloy compositions are designed along these three composition lines, and alloy rods with diameter of 3mm are prepared by copper mould casting. X-ray and TEM analysis show that BMGs are formed within Ti content range of x=7.5%—15%, x=7.5%—12.5% and x=5%—12% respectively along these three lines. Thermal analysis results further indicate that these BMGs have igher thermodynamic Tg,Tx,Tg/Tl and γ values, and these values of BMGs on every composition line decrease with increasing Ti content. The optimum BMG composition in this system is Cu64Zr28.5Ti7.5 on the (Cu9/13Zr4/13)100-xTix series, which also has the highest hardness and activation energy of crystallization. The characteristic parameters of this BMG are Tg=736K, Tx=769K, Tg/Tl=0.627,γ=0.403, Hν= 6.74GPa and ΔE=3.88 eV, which are all superior to those of the reported BMG Cu60Zr30Ti10.

We have simulated the end structures of perfect single-walled carbon nanotube at temperatures from 2000 K to 3500 K using tight binding molecular dynamics method. Our calculations suggest that the effect of temperature on the ends of the nanotubes is important. The two ends of a perfect single-walled carbon nanotube closes in turn at 3000 K and 3500 K within 15 ps. As the temperature increases, the two ends of a perfect single-walled carbon nanotube will close more quickly. Both processes of closing of two ends are accompanied by the lowing of the system energy. Moreover, the ends of armchair-type carbon nanotube close easier than those of zigzag carbon nanotube with the same diameter due to the lower strain energy of the former.

Two-dimension numerical research has been carried out on the ablation of metal Ti target irradiated by intense pulsed ion beam(IPIB) produced by TEMP Ⅱ accelerator. Spatial and temporal evolution of the ablation process of the target during the pulse time has been obtained. Melting and evaporation processes begin from the surface of the target and the ablation process of target is layer by layer while the target is irradiated by IPIB. Meanwhile, we have also obtained the result that the average ablation velocity in center region of the target is about 10m/s, which is far lower than the ejection velocity of the plume plasma formed during the pulse time. The effects have been compared for different ratios of two kinds of ions in the pulsed beams produced by using different kinds of materials as the anode of magneto-isolated diosts during the irradiation time.

The effect of solution treatment on the spatial behavior of the Portevin-Le Chatelier effect in Al-Cu alloys is investigated under constant applied driving velocity. During the initial stage of plastic deformation, the PLC deformation band nucleates in the neighborhood of the middle of the transverse direction of specimen. And multiple bands will exist simultaneously in the specimen when deformation develops, whose width is narrower and incline at a larger angle than those in annealing treated material. At high applied velocity, the PLC deformation band propagates continuously first, and then nucleates randomly in the specimen.

The order-disorder phase transitions of the fcc AB alloy thin films in (001) direction are studied numerically by the cluster variation method. The computation results show that the order-disorder phase transitions of thin films are determined by the parity of the layer number of films. The thin films with different parity will show different phase structures and thermodynamic properties. When the surface field is weak, for films with even number of layers, in the chemical potential region corresponding to the bulk concentration x=0.5, there appears the middle-temperature phase as well as the wetting phenomenon due to the missing of symmetry of the films. While for films with odd number of layers, the order-disorder phase transitions are similar with that of the bulk materials. When the surface field is strong, for films with odd number of layers, in the chemical potential region corresponding to the bulk concentration x=0.5, there is an AB(AB)nA phase which does not show order-disorder phase transtion with the increase of temperature due to the combined effect of the surface field and finite size.

The surface tension of supercooled liquid Ni-15%Sn alloy was measured by the electromagnetic oscillating drop method over a wide temperature range from 1368 to 1915K. The maximum supercooling of 265K(0.16TL) was achieved. Over the temperature range investigated, the measured surface tension shows a linear property expressed by σNi-15%Sn=1316.7-1.01(T-TL)mN/m. On the basis of experimental data, the viscosity and the diffusion coefficient of Ni-15%Sn melt were derived, and we also analyzed the activation energy for viscous flow and diffusion.

A kinetic Monte Carlo model describing the three-dimensional thin film growth on heterogeneous substrates is presented, in which the diffusion of adatoms on substrates, along the island edges and between various layers, as well as the heterogeneity of adsorptive energy, are taken into account. Three growth modes, namely the Layer-by-layer mode, Stranski-Krastanovs mode and 3D mode, and the morphology of multiple layer growth of thin films are simulated. The relationship between thin film growth modes and growth conditions is established by taking into account the distribution of deposited atoms on various layers and the surface roughness of thin films.

ZnO thin films with strong c-axis prefered orientation have been successfully deposited on Si(100) substrate at 750℃ by using reactive radio frequency magnetron sputtering. The influence of annealing temperature ranging from 600 to 1000℃on the microstructure and photoluminescence (PL) properties of ZnO films was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and photoluminescence measurement at room temperature. The XRD and TEM results show that the grain size of ZnO film increases and the residual stress in the film is tensile and remains constant at about 1 GPa with the increase of annealing temperature below 900℃. After annealed at 1000℃, the grain size decreases and the residual stress in the film changes into compressive with the value about -2 GPa. The PL spectra of the ZnO films show two emission bands, namely that originating from ultraviolet (UV) exciton transition and the visible defect photoluminescence. The intensity of UV PL spectrum and the relative intensity of fferent exciton emission are dependent on the grain size and defects in the ZnO film. The red shift of UV PL spectrum results from the change of the relative intensity of different exciton emission with annealing temperature. The visible PL spectrum is sensitive to the change of annealing temperature. The relationship between PL spectra and microstructure and defects in the films is discussed.

MgxZn1-xO films(x=0.16) have been prepared at 80℃ by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. The effect of the annealing temperature on the structure and optical properties of the films are studied using XRD, photoluminescence and the transmittance spectra. The results indicate that the thin films have hexagonal wurtzite single phase structure and a prefered orientation with the c axis perpendicular to the substrate. With increasing annealing temperature the intensities of the XRD (002) peaks increase, the grain size and intensity of the UV photoluminescence peaks also increase, while the FWHM of (002) peaks decreases, which demonstrates that high quality MgxZn1-xO films deposited by RF magnetron sputtering can be obtained by properly controlling the annealing temperature.

The nonlinear differential equation for charge density wave(CDW) proposed by Grüner is analyzed in this paper. According to a periodic solution of the equation suggested in this paper at first, it follows naturally that the sliding of CDW obeys the Ohms law. Many results such as the threshold of starting field and sliding velocity of a single segment are also derived, and the defect of neglecting the first term in the equation is avoided. Applying the result to the model of multiple segments of the CDW, the exponential law of the conductivity and the threshold of applied field, as well as the “narrow-band' noise are obtained simply, which are consistent with the experimental formula. To describe the connection of a multiple segment of CDW system, the mechanism of “elastic connection' is treated as an internal force, which clarifies the vagueness in primary Portis model.

The photoluminescence spectrum of ZnO film with high crystal quality has been measured. The peak of near-ultraviolet emission located at 389 nm has been observed. For the ZnO film treated by ultrasonic, not only the ultraviolet peak of ZnO, but also the strong green peak at 508 nm have been observed. It is also found that the intensity of the green peak (508 nm) is stronger than that of the ultraviolet peak. The ultraviolet peak also appears to have red-shift. The intensity of the green peak (508 nm) increases sharply with further heating. The crystal quality of ZnO films is changed by the ultrasonic treatment and oxygen vacancies are produced. The lattice vibration of film is aggravated in the treatment process. When the lattice vibration arrives at certain degree, the lattice oxygen leaves the lattice site to form oxygen vacancy, and the green peak (about 510 nm) is attributed to oxygen vacancies in the crystal. The density of oxygen vacancies depends on the ZnO film temperature. The higher the film temperaure, the greater the density of oxygen vacancy and the stronger the intensity of the green peak.

The magnetic and microstructural properties of Ta/FePt/C thin films after annealing at various temperatures have been investigated. The results indicate that for a very thin Ta buffer with amorphous structure and relatively large roughness, defects and grain boundaries of high density are formed in the FePt film grown on it, which effectively lowers the energy barrier of the ordering with Ta interdiffusion into the grain boundaries of the FePt film during the annealing process. The formation of the L10 phase of FePt thin films is thus greatly promoted with the ordering temperature of FePt significantly reduced by introducing a thin Ta buffer layer. On the other hand, when Ta layer is relatively thick, its roughness accordingly reduces, and most of the interfacial Ta atoms are finally bounded with the advent of the crystalline structure of the Ta buffer. Therefore, Ta buffer layer at this thickness range has little effect on the ordering of FePt films.

We report what we believe to be the first demonstration of laser operation with a novel laser material of Yb3+-doped Gd2SiO2(Yb:GSO)pumped by a laser diode at 940 nm. We obtained a low lasing threshold of 1.27 kW/cm2 with the center wavelength of 1090 nm, which is lower than the value of 1.53 kW/cm2 predicted for Yb:YAG. The maximal output power of 360 mW was obtained with a 2% output, which corresponds to a slope efficiency up to 19%.

In this paper, using Monte Carlo simulation, we obtain different structures of chromatin fibers with different ionic concentration. The result shows that as the ionic concentration is increased, the fiber undergoes a conformational change from sawtooth state to super-helix state. The structural parameters obtained by simulation agree well with the experimental results, indicating that our model is useful in explaining the conformational change of chromatin fibers in different ionic solutions.

CoSb3 powders were synthesized by mechanical alloying (MA) with Co and Sb powders as starting materials. The influence of milling speed and duration on the solid reaction were systematically studied. The XRD results indicated that the CoSb3 phase increased with prolonged MA-time, but extensive MA resulted in the appearance of CoSb2 and the decomposition of CoSb3 to CoSb2 and amorphous Sb at a constant MA-speed. Increasing the MA-speed can shorten the incubation time of the reaction, but doesn't influence the MA solid reactions themselves. For MA processes that give a specific state of alloying, the MA-speed and the MA-time should satisfy the relationship: ω3.8t=C(constant), which expresses the relationship of equivalency between MA-speed and MA-time, indicating that the supplied energy is being accumulated during MA. The MA mechanism concerning the formation of CoSb3 has been discussed on the basis of MA from a viewpoint of non-equilbrium thermodynamics.

For MA processes that give a specific state of alloying, the MA-speed and the MA-time should satisfy the relationship: ω3.8t=C(constant), which expresses the relationship of equivalency between MA-speed and MA-time, indicating that the supplied energy is being accumulated during MA. The MA mechanism concerning the formation of CoSb3 has been discussed on the basis of MA from a viewpoint of non-equilbrium thermodynamics.
Grain fragmentation and property modification of nanocrystalline ZnO under high pressure were studied on CS-1B 6×8000 kN cubic high pressure apparatus. Grain size and microstructure of the samples have been characterized by X-ray diffraction and field emission scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the significant grain fragmentation phenomenon occurs inside the crystallites. Experimental results on hardness and the current-voltage characteristics indicate that micro-hardness of the samples after high pressure is 2.3 times that of the samples sintered at atmospheric pressure and the nonlinear current-voltage characteristics is obviously better than that of the latter.

Global change science is a new research field, and one of the most important topics of which is the climate change study, to which great importance is attached by all governments of the world, and climatic abrupt change is one of manifestations of climate changes. Nowadays, research of climate change is mainly based on climatic proxy using traditional statistical method. However, climatic system is nonlinear, non-stationary and hierarchical, which makes even harder to detect and analyze abrupt climate changes. As well known, climatic system is made up of several sub-systems, and there may be inherent connections between them; however, there is only a few research methods and theories in this field. This article introduces a new detecting method, the heuristic segmentation algorithm, which is well fitted to nonlinear and non-stationary time series. Then, dealing with northern hemisphere tree rings and Beijing stalagmite based on high and low frequency series, we try to distinguish abrupt changes in different sles and disclose its physial mechanism. Defining a new physical quantity, the abrupt density, and analyzing the distribution characteristics of abrupt changes before and after 1000 a, We take Huabei area's climatic change as an example to explore the inherent connections between local and global areas.
