Chin. Phys. Lett. 1996, 13 (10): 724-726 .  
Abstract   PDF(pc) (185KB) ( 532 )
The Boltzmann-Nordheim-Vlasov (BNV) model was employed to investigate the giant monopole resonance (GMR) built on very excited residula nuclei formed in heavy-ion collisions. Roughly speaking the GMR energy of BNV model is very similar to the value given by the empirical formual EGMR = 31.2A-l/3 + 20.6A-l/6 and hardly changes with impact parameter and bombarding energy.

Abstract   PDF(pc) (143KB) ( 529 )
Excitation functions of the dissipative products in the reaction 19F+51V have been measured from 102.25 to 109.50MeV by 250keV steps at θl = 21.7°, 36.1°and 40.5°. The rotation angular velocities ω and the energy coherence widths Γ of the corresponding dinuclear systems were extracted. The coherence rotation and its importance in the reaction process have been discussed.

Pion and Kaon Production in Heavy-Ion Reactions at 1GeV/Nucleon
ZHENG Yu-ming, CHU Zi-li
Chin. Phys. Lett. 1996, 13 (10): 730-733 .  
Abstract   PDF(pc) (213KB) ( 612 )
The pion and kaon production in heavy-ion reactions at 1GeV/nucleon has been investigated in the relativistic Vlasor-Uehling-Uhlenbeck model, which has been generalized to include the effect of nuclear medium on kaon and pion. The calculated results show that the attractive pion optical potential not only enhances apparently the yield of pions with low transverse momenta, leading to a reasonable fit to the experimental data, but also increases the kaon abundance.

Chin. Phys. Lett. 1996, 13 (10): 750-752 .  
Abstract   PDF(pc) (183KB) ( 699 )
The effects of low energy electrons in scanning tunnelling microscope operations are explored, with the emphasis on its role in the fabrication processes. A simple model based on the continuum electron diffusion is proposed to account for the observed sub-surface characteristics of the nanoscale features. The results suggest that the local transport properties could affect the outcome of such operations.

Abstract   PDF(pc) (183KB) ( 663 )
Under very low pressure (0.1 Torr) the high density nucleation of diamond on mirror-smooth silicon in hot filament-chemical vapor deposition system was obtained. The nucleation density of order of 1010-1011cm-2 was achieved, the same achievement which obtained in microwave plasma-chemical vapor deposition system with negative bias. In this paper the nucleation technique and the effect of low pressure on diamond nucleation were discussed in detail based on the molecular dynamics.

Chin. Phys. Lett. 1996, 13 (10): 757-760 .  
Abstract   PDF(pc) (215KB) ( 552 )
The preparation procedure, the transmissivity, and the two-wave coupling properties of coppermodified potassium sodium strontium barium niobate (KNSBN) crystals are reported. The Cu ions doped in KNSBN can form two deep energy levels. This means that they are able to act as centers for free charge carrier stimulation and recombination. The two-wave coupling gain coefficient of KNSBN: Cu is two times larger than that of KNSBN. The photorefractive sensitivity of KNSBN: Cu is estimated to be in the order of 10-3cm2/J.
Sound Speed in a Shocked Tungsten Alloy: Its Significance in Studying “Softening” Mechanism to Multiphase Alloys
ZHOU Xian-ming, JING Fu-qian, HU Jin-biao
Chin. Phys. Lett. 1996, 13 (10): 761-764 .  
Abstract   PDF(pc) (193KB) ( 939 )
Optical analyzer technique are used to measure the sound speed as a function of pressure for shocked multiphase alloy 93 W containing 93%W, with 4.2%Ni-2.45%Fe-0.35%Co alloy as binder, all in wt.%. Below 250 GPa, the speed increases with pressure, then a bulk“softening” process occurs at 250 to 340 GPa, afterwards the speed again rises with pressure and coincides with the calculated bulk sound speed, showing a fluid-like behavior for this alloy. Lindemann melting law calculations were made for both the binder and the tungsten. The results showed that 250 GPa corresponds approximately to the pressure for the binder beginning to melt, and 340GPa corresponds to that for tungsten. Therefore, we believe that the shock-induced “softening” mechanism for this kind of multiphase alloys can be attributed to the binder melting.

GU Bing-lin, DUAN Wen-hui, XIONG Shi-ying
Chin. Phys. Lett. 1996, 13 (10): 768-771 .  
Abstract   PDF(pc) (209KB) ( 576 )
The dependence of optical interface phonon on structure was demonstrated for thin layer inserted GaAlAs quantum well structures. It was found that the dispersion is sensitive to the Al-content of the inserted layer but almost independent of the position of the layer. The results showed that phonon modes can be modulated by adjusting the well parameters, which is useful for some device applications.

YE Gao-xiang, FENG Chun-mu, ZHANG Qi-rui, GE Hong-liang, ZHANG Xuan-jia
Chin. Phys. Lett. 1996, 13 (10): 772-774 .  
Abstract   PDF(pc) (234KB) ( 733 )
A new Ag rough film system, deposited on silicone oil surfaces by rf-magnetron sputtering method, has been fabricated. The chrysanthemum-like surface morphology at micron length scale is observed. It is proposed that the anomalous critical behavior mainly results from the relative shift between the Ag atom clusters and the substrate. The discussion of the deposition mechanism is also presented.

Chin. Phys. Lett. 1996, 13 (10): 775-778 .  
Abstract   PDF(pc) (199KB) ( 431 )
BaTiO3(BTO)/YBa2Cu3O7 (YBCO) heteroepitaxial films have been fabricated on (100) SrTiO3 substrates by pulsed laser ablation. X-ray characterizations show the BTO/YBCO bilayer films have a highly epitaxial nature. Rocking curves for the BTO (002) and YBCO (005) peaks have full width at half maximum values of 0.36°and 0.32°, respectively. The Ф scan plots indicate good in-plane alignments of these epitaxial films. The ferroelectric properties of the B TO/YBCO heteroepitaxial films were evaluated by capacitance-voltage measurement in metal-ferroelectric-metal configuration.

Abstract   PDF(pc) (190KB) ( 679 )
CNx films prepared by high dose ion implantation and post-annealing were studied by Auger electron spectroscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction. A nearly uniform CNx layer was formed. Carbon and nitrogen were found covalently bonded in the films. X-ray diffraction results showed that two crystal phases of C3N4, β-C3N4 and p-C3N4, have been formed in the matrix of carbon.
Band Gap Behaviors of (α-GaN) / (α-AIN) Superlattice and (β-GaN)/(β- A1N) Superlattice
KE San-huang, ZHANG Kai-ming, XIE Xi-de
Chin. Phys. Lett. 1996, 13 (10): 786-789 .  
Abstract   PDF(pc) (261KB) ( 473 )
By using an ab initio calculation, it is found that the variation of the fundamental band gap of (α-GaN)n / (α-AlN))n (0001) superlattices is remarkably different from that of (β-GaN))n / (β- A1N))n (001) superlattices. The difference in band gap behaviors was shown to be due to the internal electric fields induced by the spontaneous polarizations in α-GaN and α-AlN. In addition, the valence-band offsets at the interfaces of these superlattices are also determined. The results are in good agreement with those available from experimental data.

Chin. Phys. Lett. 1996, 13 (10): 790-793 .  
Abstract   PDF(pc) (232KB) ( 637 )
The performances such as the operating-voltage and the brightness of three types of devices: single-layer device, double-layer device and three-layer device, were examined. It is demonstrated that the I-V characteristics of single-layer device depends not on the applied voltage but instead on the electric-field strength, and the brightness increased by a factor of 50 and the operating-voltage decreased when introducing one electron transporting layer or an electron transporting layer and one hole blocking layer between the light emitting layer and the negative electrode. In fact, it is imperative to match the energy level of each layer in the electroluminescent device in order to improve its comprehensive performances.
