Structural characterization was performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The mineral was found to be gibbsite in phase. The transitional metal ions present were investigated using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and optical absorption spectra. The EPR results suggest that Fe3+ has replaced Al3+ in the unit cell of bauxite. The optical absorption spectrum is due to Fe3+ which indicates that it is in distorted octahedral environment. The near-infrared (NIR) spectrum is due to water fundamentals and combination overtones, which confirm the formula of the compound. The impurities in the mineral are identified using spectroscopic techniques.展开更多

Here, we modify the phase change properties of the conventional Ge_2Sb_2Te_5(GST) material by introducing an SnS phase. It is found that the resistance drift coefficient of SnS-doped GST was decreased from 0.06 to 0.01. It can be proposed that the origin originates from the precipitation of GST nanocrystals accompanied by the precipitation of SnS crystals compared to single-phase GST compound systems. We also found that the decrease in resistance drift can be attributed to the narrowed bandgap from 0.65 to 0.43 eV after SnS-doping. Thus, this study reveals the quantitative relationship between the resistance drift and the band gap and proposes a new idea for alleviating the resistance drift by composition optimization, which is of great significance for finding a promising phase change material.展开更多

These samples were characterized by Energy Dispersive Spectrometry (EDS) to determine the elemental composition, as well as by X-ray diffraction for structure, hot point probe method for type of conductivity. Optical response (Photoconductivity) and Photoluminescence (PL) and PL-excitation (PLE) at temperatures from 4.2 to 77 K were also used to estimate the band-gap energy of Cu-Ga<sub>3</sub>Se<sub>5</sub>. They show a nearly perfect stoechiometry and present p-type conductivity. CuGa<sub>3</sub>Se<sub>5</sub> either have an Ordered Defect Chalcopyrite structure (ODC), or an Ordered Vacancy Chalcopyrite structure (OVC). The gap energy obtained by Photoconductivity and Photoluminescence (PL) for the different samples is 1.85 eV. Studying the variation of the gap as a function of the temperature shows that the transition is a D-A type. The defects that appear are probably Ga<sub>Cu</sub>.展开更多

The LPP source is operated with a Sn solid rod target on which pulsed YAG laser is focused to produce high temperature plasma emitting EUV radiation. The source is equipped with a newly designed debris stopper protecting a condenser multilayer mirror from the particle debris of the target. The condenser mirror focuses the light onto an EUV beam-splitter to form transmitted and reflected paths for producing interference fringes of a sharing type. The optical configuration is of a common path based on a triangular path type with a focusing at the beam-splitter, which is enabled to produce fringes by a low coherence radiation with a standard optical quality beam-splitter. The fringes are recorded by an imaging plate with pixels as small as 25μm. The dynamic range of linearity in detection of the EUV light was found to be more than 10 4 with sensitivity of 10 4 photons/pixel, enough for the purpose of interferogram recording, possibly with one laser shot.展开更多

The optical and microstructural properties of samples before and after annealing were characterized by XRD, XPS, UV-VISNIR spectrophotometer and ellipsometer. The results show optical transmittances with low absorption in wavelength range above λ=200 nm for all samples. The appropriate annealing can transfer the amorphous state of as-deposited films to the crystal film, contribute to the growth of nanocrystalline and compressive stress, optimize the stoichiometry of the film and systematically improve film density and the refractive index. In consideration of the stability of proper refractive index (>2) and high optical transmittance in UV band, HfO2 films deposited approximately at 220 W can be used in UV anti-reflection system.展开更多

The effect of Pb2＋ concentration at 500℃ on the phase and crystalline structure of the Cd0.8（Zn1-x7,Pbx）0.2S powders were investigated by X-ray diffraction （XRD）. According to the transmission electron microscopy （TEM） images, the particles size are in the range of 58 nm to 72 nm. In addition, optical band gap energy and optical constants of nano-powders were determined using the ultraviolet （UV） spectrum, Fournier transform infrared spectroscopy （FTIR）, and Kramers-Kronig analysis, respectively. We calculate the refractive index n, extinction coefficient k, and dielectric function t as a function of the wavenumber. The experiment results demonstrate that the amount of Pb＋2 has been playing an increasingly important role on optical properties of CZPS nanocrystals.展开更多

The AgxO films deposited apparently show a structural evolution from cubic biphased （AgO ＋ Ag20） to cubic single-phased （Ag20）, and to biphased （Ag20 ＋ AgO） structure. Notably, the cubic single-phased Ag20 fihn is deposited at the SP = 105 W and an AgO phase with （220） orientation discerned in the Ag^O films deposited using the SP 〉 105 W. The transmissivity and refiectivity of the AgxO films in transparent region decrease with the increase the SP, whereas the absorptivity inversely increases with the increase of the SP. These results may be due to the structural evolution and the increasing film thickness. A redshift of the films＇ absorption edges determined in terms of Tauc formula clearly occurs from 3.1 eV to 2.73 eV with the increase of the SP.展开更多

In this paper the inherent capacity of emission spectroscopy in evaluating the growth processes under plasma induced reactions is presented.展开更多

Diagnosing the N2 plasma by optical emission spectroscopy （OES） was applied to the process of plasma modification. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS） was used for analysis of the binding of element after plasma modification. It is shown that the surface modification was caused by excitated N. The injecting of N2 and N＋ leads to the increase in the dissociative interstitial state N in the films. The doped N makes for TiO2-xNx appearing in the TiO2 films. TiO2-xNx forms the impurity energy state in the TiO2 energy band gap and reduces the energy band gap. This is the main reason leading to the red shift of absorption edge.展开更多

文摘Hafnium oxide (HfO2) thin films were deposited on quartz substrate by radio frequency magnetron sputtering with power from 160 W to 240 W. The optical and microstructural properties of samples before and after annealing were characterized by XRD, XPS, UV-VISNIR spectrophotometer and ellipsometer. The results show optical transmittances with low absorption in wavelength range above λ=200 nm for all samples. The appropriate annealing can transfer the amorphous state of as-deposited films to the crystal film, contribute to the growth of nanocrystalline and compressive stress, optimize the stoichiometry of the film and systematically improve film density and the refractive index. In consideration of the stability of proper refractive index (>2) and high optical transmittance in UV band, HfO2 films deposited approximately at 220 W can be used in UV anti-reflection system.

The experiment results demonstrate that the amount of Pb＋2 has been playing an increasingly important role on optical properties of CZPS nanocrystals.

文摘A new type of x-ray lens composed of multi-square polycapillary slices(ASPXRL)used in focusing parallel x-ray beam was presented in this paper.Compared with conventional x-ray polycapillary lens,ASPXRL can provide smaller and brighter focus.The effects of the manufacturing imperfections on focusing quality of ASPXRL were evaluated with the values of transmission efficiency and discussed.It is suggested that ASPXRL has application prospects as a condenser lens for x-ray microscopy and flux collectors for x-ray analytical instruments.

文摘This paper reports that a series of silver oxide （AgzO） films are deposited on glass substrates by direct-current reactive magnetron sputtering at a substrate temperature of 250 ℃ and an oxygen flux ratio of 15：18 by modifying the sputtering power （SP）. The AgxO films deposited apparently show a structural evolution from cubic biphased （AgO ＋ Ag20） to cubic single-phased （Ag20）, and to biphased （Ag20 ＋ AgO） structure. Notably, the cubic single-phased Ag20 fihn is deposited at the SP = 105 W and an AgO phase with （220） orientation discerned in the Ag^O films deposited using the SP 〉 105 W. The transmissivity and refiectivity of the AgxO films in transparent region decrease with the increase the SP, whereas the absorptivity inversely increases with the increase of the SP. These results may be due to the structural evolution and the increasing film thickness. A redshift of the films＇ absorption edges determined in terms of Tauc formula clearly occurs from 3.1 eV to 2.73 eV with the increase of the SP.

文摘The oxidation of aluminium was studied using optical emission spectroscopy （OES） during the evaporation of aluminium in traces of oxygen in a thermal plasma reactor. The ratio of the measured line intensities of Al-O with that of Al follows the exact trend as of that obtained from the corresponding line intensities in X-ray diffraction spectra of the synthesized samples. In this paper the inherent capacity of emission spectroscopy in evaluating the growth processes under plasma induced reactions is presented.

文摘Nitrogen ion was implanted into the nano-TiO2 film surfaces by electron cyclotron resonance （ECR） plasma modification to improve the optical reactivity in visible-light region for nano-TiO2. Diagnosing the N2 plasma by optical emission spectroscopy （OES） was applied to the process of plasma modification. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS） was used for analysis of the binding of element after plasma modification. It is shown that the surface modification was caused by excitated N. The injecting of N2 and N＋ leads to the increase in the dissociative interstitial state N in the films. The doped N makes for TiO2-xNx appearing in the TiO2 films. TiO2-xNx forms the impurity energy state in the TiO2 energy band gap and reduces the energy band gap. This is the main reason leading to the red shift of absorption edge.
