We built up a nuclear warhead verification system based on an Intranet platform. The hardware of the system consists of an Intranet server, two personnel computers and a portable high purity gerinanium gamma-ray spectrometer. The software, Blanking-out, is made of two modules designed for the inspecting and inspected parties respectively. Both modules are interactive and communicate through the Intranet. When the system operates, any sensitive information carried by the high resolution gamma-ray spectrum collected by the detector will be meddled by the inspected module before the package of spectral data is sent to the inspecting module to prevent a disclosure of sensitive information. After receiving the spectral data, the inspecting module will display on the screen of the inspecting PC terminal the verification results in a form of blankouted spectrum (spectral blanking-out form) or a form of a piece of phrase (phrase form). The guideline to the spectral blanking-out is that: for those ranges of energy obligated to be inspected, the inspected module should ensure that the inspecting module can display truly their objective spectrum; and for the other ranges of energy, the inspected module can blankout certain parts of the spectra based on the knowledge of sensitive information. Phrase form is rather straightforward, answering the question whether the inspected warhead is a “uranium-type”, “plutonium-type” or “non-nuclear type.” We conducted a demonstration on some surrogates for nuclear warheads to see whether the nuclear warhead verification system possesses the capability of identifying the type of a warhead and blanking-out sensitive spectral information. The demonstration was carried out successfully. Phrase form is especially recommendable due to its stronger capability to prevent sensitive information from disclosure and its higher verification credibility. The demonstration also disclosed some deficiencies of the system, such as too much disintegrated hardware components lower the integration of the system, the interactive operation of the inspected module and the spectral blanking-out form decrease the verification credibility and so on.

SIMULATION OF ACOUSTIC WAVE PROPAGATION IN COMPLEX MEDIA USING MRFD METHOD

MA JIAN-WEI, YANG HUI-ZHU, ZHU YA-PING — 2001-04-05

Author(s): MA JIAN-WEI, YANG HUI-ZHU, ZHU YA-PING

This paper is devoted to the simulation of acoustic wave propagation in complex media, applying the finite difference scheme and the orthonormal compactly supported wavelet transform approximation,to the time and the space dimension of the wave equation, respectively. A new method, which is a fast adaptive arithmetic, named Multiresolution Finite Difference (MRFD) is first proposed to solve the problem of the wave propagation in multi-layered medium with nonperiodic boundary condition. Thus the problem is solved in the wavelet domain rather than in the traditional Euclidian space. Due to adaptive and vanishing-moment property of the wavelet basis, the difference operator and solution vector have sparseness in the wavelet domain. MRFD is a promising method because of some advantages such as lighter computational burden, efficiency of convergence and robustness. Numerical results in geophysics exploration show the effectiveness and potential of the method.

Author(s): LI WEI, CHEN SHI-GANG

A new type of one-dimensional periodic ally driven Hamiltonian system (an harmonic) has been proposed and its characteristics discussed. Chaotic dynamics in the driven oscillator is controlled using an adjustable, passive limiter (a weight for the oscillator). The chaotic trajectories of the conservative system can be controlled to some of the low periodic (or low energy) orbits. The results demonstrate that chaos control can be accomplished using controllers that are very simple relative to the system being controlled.

The thermodynamic behavior of single molecule-photon cryocooler(SMPC)was described by the study of participating frequency of phonons in light transitions, heat-light converting efficiency and cooling efficiency. The times of heat distribution were taken as a time scale in the investigation of cooling efficiency. The cooling efficiency curve obtained from our theory has the same shape of experiment curves obtained by other researchers. The reason of a bending of cooling efficiency curve appearing in the cooling region was given. The greatest cooling efficiency of SMPC was investigated, and it is obtained that the best wavelength, which results in the greatest cooling efficiency,is located at the point of one fourth exciting band width from the red edge. As a main conclusion, crystal-line materials are the sole kind of promising materials for obtaining the greatest cooling efficiency.

Characterization of the structure of spatial inhomogeneities embedded in a highly scattering medium is required in many fields. In this paper, a model of a stratified medium embedded with an inhomogeneous ball is considered. With an assumption that the ball is small enough, a perturbation solution to diffusion equation is obtained with some boundary treatments. According to the characteristics of this solution in the two-dimensional Fourier space, a new weighted Fourier transform is used to process the surface data. After this process, a singularity appears at the center of the ball. Combining with the symmetry of the surface data, the information of three-dimensional position of the ball is determined.

Both computer simulations and experimental results are presented to verify the effectiveness and simplicity of micro-zooming technique for obtaining superresolution.

A quasi- phase-matched optical parametric oscillator(QPM OPO)consisting of a periodically poled LiNbO3(PPLN) crystal is pumped by an all-solid state single frequency Nd:YVO4 laser. The triple resonance of the pump mode and two subharmonic modes with near- degenerate frequencies are experimentally demonstrated by means of precision temperature control of the crystal. The threshold pump power is only 1.2mW. The quadrature phase noise squeezing of the pump field reflected from the OPO up to 1.1dB is observed at the pump power of 2.8 times of the oscillation threshold. The numerically calculated result is in good agreement with the experimentally measured data.

The cavity field spectra of a two level atom interacting with two mode field through Raman process are investigated. It is shown that the basic features of the spectra is unchanged whether the atom is in the high or low level state initially. Symmetrical two peak structure appears in the spectrum for each mode when the initial fields are both in the pure number states or both in the coherent states. The split of the two peaks is proportional to the field intensity of the other mode.

Reversible thermochromic properties were observed in Bi2O3-Li2O system glasses. The temperature coefficient of optical absorption edge increases with increasing Bi2O3 content, implying that Bi2O3 is the main reason of thermochromism. The thermochromic mechanism is explained in terms of the temperature dependence of the optical energy gap Eg, caused mainly by the electron-phonon interaction. The low phonon energy and high electron density of Bi—O bond are important factors contributing to the electron-phonon interaction in these glasses.

Under low vacuum condition (5Pa), Q-switched YAG laser ablates plane aluminum target and plasma are produced. Optical emission spectroscopy is used to carry out time-resolved analysis of atomic particles. Using the resonance transition of AlI 396.1 nm(3p2P—4s2S), the velocity distribution of AlI in space has been determined at laser power densities of 1.91×1010, 5.10×1010 and 7.64×1010W/cm2, respectively, when the ablating size is about 200 μm. The velocity is of the order of 106 cm/s and the time decays nearly agree with the exponential law as the radial distance from the target surface increases. At a fixed position, the velocity shows some decrease as the laser power density being increased, but when the distance is above 15 mm, the velocity converges to unification one. Shockwave model is used and gives a good agreement with the experimental results. From the model, it is deduced that the shockwave front has cylindrical symmetry.

The characteristics of DC hollow cathode discharge and cathode sputtering was investigated by means of a two dimensional hybrid model, combing Monte Carlo simulation of the motion of fast electrons and a fluid description of slow electrons and positive ions. The results demonstrate the existence of the hollow cathode effect in the discharge and show that the spatial shape of the normalized ionization source is dependent more on the gas pressure than on the discharge voltage. The factors related to the cathode sputtering were analyzed. Investigations have demonstrated that the non uniform sputtering on the cathode surfaces in a sputter-type ion laser is due to the non-uniform distribution of electric field, flux and density of ions bombarding the cathodes.

It has been found that the composition range of formation of the single phase Gd3(Fe1-xCox)29-yCry Compounds is 0≤x≤0.7 for y=5.0, 0.7≤x≤0.8 for y=5.5, and 0.8≤x≤1.0 for y=6.0. A pure Co-based Gd3Co29-xCrx compound series have been synthesized. The solubility limit of the Cr atoms in the Gd3Co29-xCrx compounds was found to be from x=6.5 to x=7.3. The results indicate that all the synthesized Gd3(Fe1-xCox)29-yCry compounds crystallize in Nd3(Fe,Ti)29 type structure of the monoclinic system and the space group A2/m.The solubility limit of Co atoms in the Gd3(Fe1-xCox)29-yCry compounds increases with increasing the stabilizing element Cr. It is noteworthy that substitution of Co for Fe leads to a remarkable change of the magnetocrystalline anisotropy of the Gd3(Fe1-xCox)29-yCry compounds. When x≥0.4 the anisotropy changes from the easy plane type to the uniaxial type, which is important for permanent magnet application.

The diamond-like carbon (DLC) films were deposited under different deposition parameters by using arc technology. The detailed relationship of sp3 structure with the D peak of the DLC films' Raman spectra is discussed. In aid of the discussion, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy was used to determine the DLC films' C1s binding energy. By comparing the binding energy with the Raman shift of the films, it can be found that the intensity of D peak decomposed from the Raman shift can be increased not only by the graphite cluster, but also by higher content of sp3 bonds. Higher sp3 content of DLC films can be obtained by using 90 degree magnetic filter. The study shows that the C1s binding energy of DLC films, whose Raman spectra have higher intensity of D peak, can be 284.15 or 285.50 eV, which reveals that the DLC films may have higher graphite-like or diamond-like structure, respectively.

We develop the physical model based on the real space charge transfer mechanism and derive the dynamic equations of GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures. Complex bifurcations are studied in detail for the forced and unforced cases. It is shown that both periodic attractors and fixed points attractors can coexist under a right dc bias. The hysteresis phenomena are also investigated in theory. For the forced GaAs/AlGaAs, numerical simulation shows that the occurance of frequency-locking, quasiperiodicity, and chaos depends on the frequency and amplitude of the externally applied microwave field, as expected.

InP/SiO2 composite thin films have been deposited on hot substrates of slice of silica glass and polished silicon by a radio frequency magnetron co-sputtering technique, and annealing under several conditions. Detailed analysis of the composition of the films by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy shows that the InP and SiO2 exist in normal stoichiometry as a whole. X-ray diffraction patterns and Raman spectra of the films conform the presence of InP nanocrystals in the composite films. Very small amounts of extra indium and In2O3 have been removed and pure InP/SiO2 nanocomposite films have been obtained by annealing at high temperature (520℃) in over-pressure of phosphorous vapor. Blue shifts of optical absorption spectra and great enhancement of optical nonlinearity of the films at room temperature have been observed.

Si-containing silicon oxide (SSO) films and Ge-containing silicon oxide (GSO) films were deposited on p-type Si substrates using the RF magnetron sputtering technique with a Si-SiO2 and a Ge-SiO2 composite target, respectively. These films were annealed in a N2 ambient at temperatures from 300 to 1100℃. Using high resolution transmission electron microscopy,nanometer Si particles and nanometer Ge particles were observed in the SSO and GSO films,respectively,after annealing at 900 or 1100℃. All the PL spectra from the two types of films annealed at various temperatures have similar shapes with peak positions around 580nm (～2.1eV). It is indicated that light emission originates from luminescence centers in Si oxide films. The experimental results have been explained reasonably.

High electric field annealing effect in thin gate oxide of MOS structure is studied in depth, and the detrapping mechanisms of trapped charge in the gate oxide are investigated. Comparison between the growth mechanism and the detrapping mechanism of trapped charge in gate oxide is made by experiments and simulations. A satisfactory physical description is presented for explaining this effect. Comparison between annealing under negative and positive gate voltages shows that the former is more effective .

We carried out magnetization loop measurements on melt-textured YBa2CuO7-δ sample at various temperatures with the magnetic sweep method by using a vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM). We derived the curves of, J(T,B),lnE-lnJ and thermal excited potential U0(T,B), and analyzed the magnetic response of this sample, especially the influence of field sweep rates to the second peak. The peak effect of the sample, as well as the factors affecting the magnitude and position of the second peak, is discussed.

Author(s): SHENG PING-XING

One-dimensional steady state and evolutionary Ginzburg-Landau equations for superconductivity is disussed. Instability of constant steady state solutions and the existence of limit sets of infinite-dimensional dynamic system are proved. Using the author's definition of chaos for finite-and infinite-dimensional dynamic systems, we conclude that superconductors governed by G-L equations possess chaotic phenomena. Therefore strange phenomena may occur in conducting. The theoretical results indicate that it is advisable to improve the design of experiments or try to find new structures of superconductors in future research to suppress the chaotic behavior.

Effect of the Ga content substituting the Fe on the crystal structure and magnetic properties of the Nd2(Fe,Co)14B/(Fe,Co)3B+(little)α-Fe permanent magnetic materials is studied. The change mechanism of magnetic properties of the dual-phase nanocrystalline magnets is discussed.The results show that the crystal size was markedly decreased by adding Ga. With the increase of x, the dependence of the Br and the (BH)max on annealing time undergoes a chang from two-peak curves to one-peak curves in the Ga content range of xj Hc decreases at first to a minimum and then increases slowly. The best value of the magnetic properties is obtained at x=0.2.

Systematic study on magnetic properties of Fe-nanowires fabricated by electrochemical deposition is performed by micromagnetic simulation,which reveals that all nanowires show magnetic anisotropy,and the coercivity dependents on the diameter with a relationship of inverse square ratio.With fixed diameter,it increases as the length increases,stopping at a platform.The hysteresiss loop,static magnetic configuration and reversal mechanism all vary with changing diameter and length of the wires.Explicit explanation is presented based on the details of the magnetization process.Nanowires with diameter of 5nm,which have not been successfully acquired by experiments all show uniform reverse mechanism in the simulation.Even more intriguing magnetic behaviors emerge when the shape of the wires becomes more particle-like.

Based on the electromagnetic model of ferromagnetic/non-ferromagnetic/ferromagnetic layered films proposed in references [17] and [18] the enhanced giant magneto-impedance (GMI) effects and the GMI ratio dependence on the thickness of the constituent thin films are analyzed numerically in detail.It is showsn that larger difference of resistivity between the ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic layers as well as an optimum thickness of the layered thin films are beneficial to the improvement of the GMI effects.

The heteroepitaxial diamond films were grown on the p-type Si (100) substrate by microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The diamond films were patterned to strip types with the oxygen plasma etching technology. The magnetoresistance measurements have been carried out in a magnetic field ranging from 0 to 5 T, using the four-probe method. It was shown that the heteroepitaxial diamond films may produce fairly big magnetoresistance. Based on the Fuchs and Sondheimer thin film theory, mixed scattering by lattice vibration,ionized impurities and surfaces is considered. Taking the parallel connection resistance model, a theoretical description of the magnetoresistive effect in heteroepitaxial diamond films is presented by solving the Boltzmann transport equation in the relaxation time approximation. A relationship between the magnetoresistance and the film thickness, magnetic field, mobility and hole density is developed. The influence of valence deformation and surface scattering to the magnetoresistance of heteroepitaxial diamond films is discussed. A possible cause is proposed to explain the fairly big magnetoresistance of the films.

This Letter describes the photoluminescence properties of ZnO nanoparticles enclosed in BN capsules (ZnO/BN core/shell structure). PL enhancement of over one thousand times of ZnO/BN compared to pure ZnO nanoparticles was observed, which is attributed to the dielectric environment effects of the capsule on the interfacial structures and defect amounts of ZnO quantum dots.

INFLUENCE OF Gd3+ AND Y3+-DOPING ON LOW TEMPERATURE THERMOLUMINESCENCE OF Pb WO_4

The influence of Gd3+ and Y3+ doping on the low temperature thermoluminescence (TL) of PbWO4(PWO) is investigated. In the case of polycrystal powder, the TL above 180K is eliminated by doping Y3+ or Gd3+ ions. Meanwhile, a new TL peak at lower temperature appeare. For the PWO single crystal there are two TL peaks at about 130 and 253K, but only one single peak at about 130K for PWO:Y crystals. The common effect of doping trivalent ions is to decrease or eliminate the TL above 180K and create a new TL peak at lower temperature. It indicates that the traps responsible for TL above 180K are due to the intrinsic defects which probably are Pb3+ and O-. During the preparation of PWO, the evaporation of the PbO component is easier than that of WO3, which will lead to the deficiency of PbO. The deficiency of O ions can be compensated by annealing in air while the deficiency of Pb is permanent. Therefore in the volume surrounding the Pb vacancy, there is a lack of positive charge. So the charge deficiency in the Pb-sublattic can be most easily balanced by an increase of concentration of Pb3+ and O- Doping Gd3+ or Y3+ can decrease the concentration of Pb3+ and O-. Gd3+ or Y3+ can also play a role of electron traps, which create new TL peaks at 150 and 125K, respectively. The trap depth of Gd3+ and Y3+ are 0.32 and 0.29eV, respectively. The difference between doping Gd3+ and Y3+ can be explained by the difference between their coulomb potentials.

CeCu6 is one of heavy fermion materials. The effect of the partly substitution of Cu by Au, Ag, Pd and Pt on the low temperature properties has been intensively studied. In this paper, we study the temperature dependence of resistance of CeCu6-xNix(x=0.00, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20) at temperatures below 1K. Experimental result shows that the temperature dependence of resistance changes with increase of doping content x. Below 500mK, the resistance of sample with x≈0.1 has a linear temperature dependence, showing a typical non-Fermi liquid behavior, while other samples behave as Fermi liquid. This means x≈0.1 is the critical doping for this system. In the case of Au substitution of Cu, the critical doping of which is also x=0.1, the ground state of the system is changed from Fermi-liquid to non-fermi liquid and antiferromagnetic ordering by volume expansion. But in the present case, the ground state of Ni doping systems changes from FL to NFL due to the magnetism of Ni.
