    Study of superstructure II in multiferroic BiMnO3
    葛炳辉, 李方华, 李雪明, 王玉梅, 迟振华, 靳常青
    2008 (9):  3163-3169.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/001
    摘要 ( 1904 )   PDF(5557KB) ( 821 )  
    The crystal structure of the minor phase, named superstructure II, existing in multiferroic compound BiMnO3 has been studied by electron diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Domains of major and minor phases coexisting in BiMnO3 were observed in high-resolution electron microscope images. The unit cell of minor phase was determined to be triclinic with the size 4\times 4\times 4 times as large as the distorted perovskite subcell. The [111] and [10\bar {1}] projected structure maps of the minor phase have been derived from the corresponding images by means of the image processing. A possible rough three-dimensional (3D) structure model was proposed based on the 3D structural information extracted from the two projected structure maps. Since there is no inversion centre in the proposed model, the minor phase may contribute to the ferroelectric property of BiMnO3.

    摘要 ( 1853 )   PDF(149KB) ( 994 )  
    This paper studies conformal invariance and conserved quantities of Hamilton system. The definition and the determining equation of conformal invariance for Hamilton system are provided. The relationship between the conformal invariance and the Lie symmetry are discussed, and the necessary and sufficient condition that the conformal invariance would be the Lie symmetry of the system under the infinitesimal one-parameter transformation group is deduced. It gives the conserved quantities of the system and an example for illustration.

    Simulation solution for micro droplet impingementon a flat dry surface
    孙震海, 韩瑞津
    2008 (9):  3185-3188.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/005
    摘要 ( 1941 )   PDF(996KB) ( 1738 )  
    This paper presents a computational fluid dynamics approach for micro droplet impacting on a flat dry surface. A two-phase flow approach is employed using FLUENT VOF multiphase model to calculate the flow distributions upon impact. The contact line velocity is tracked to calculate the dynamic contact angle through user defined function program. The study showed that the treatment of contact line velocity is crucial for the accurate prediction of droplet impacting on poor wettability surfaces. On the other hand, it has much less influence on the simulation of droplet impacting on good wettability surfaces. Good fit between simulation results and experimental data is obtained using this model.

    Teleportation attack on the QSDC protocol with a random basis and order
    高飞, 温巧燕, 朱甫臣
    2008 (9):  3189-3193.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/006
    摘要 ( 1751 )   PDF(152KB) ( 987 )  
    The quantum secure direct communication (QSDC) protocol with a random basis and order is analysed and an effective attack, i.e. teleportation attack, is presented. An eavesdropper can obtain half of the transmitted secret bits with the help of this special attack. It is shown that quantum teleportation can be employed to weaken the role of the order-rearrangement encryption at least in a certain circumstance. Meanwhile, a possible improvement on this protocol is proposed, which makes it secure against this kind of attack.

    A study on entanglement dynamics for a four-qubit model
    满忠晓, 夏云杰
    2008 (9):  3198-3202.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/008
    摘要 ( 1482 )   PDF(1363KB) ( 703 )  
    In this paper, we consider the entanglement dynamics of a four-qubit model [2006 {\em Phys. Rev.} A \textbf{74} 042328] where two entangled qubits a and b locally interact with separate qubits A and B via the spin-exchange-like Hamiltonian. We study the effect of purity of initial entangled state of qubits a, b on the entanglement evolution and its relation with energy transfer. Also, we find that the total bipartite entanglement of qubits a, b plus A, B is not a constant any longer when the initial entangled state of a, b is not pure, which is a complement to the result in the paper [2007 {\em J. Phys.} B \textbf{40} S45] for the pure case.

    Teleportation of arbitrary unknown two-atom statewith cluster state via thermal cavity
    章文, 刘益民, 刘俊, 张战军
    2008 (9):  3203-3208.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/009
    摘要 ( 1622 )   PDF(172KB) ( 762 )  
    This paper proposes a scheme for implementing the teleportation of an arbitrary unknown two-atom state by using a cluster state of four identical 2-level atoms as quantum channel in a thermal cavity. The two distinct advantages of the present scheme are: (i) The discrimination of 16 orthonormal cluster states in the standard teleportation protocol is transformed into the discrimination of single-atom states. Consequently, the discrimination difficulty of states is degraded. (ii) The scheme is insensitive to the cavity field state and the cavity decay for the thermal cavity is only virtually excited when atoms interact with it. Thus, the scheme is more feasible.

    The periodic death and anabiosis of the entanglement between two moving atoms
    邓小娟, 方卯发
    2008 (9):  3209-3213.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/010
    摘要 ( 1490 )   PDF(353KB) ( 723 )  
    This paper investigates the periodic death and anabiosis of the entanglement between two moving atoms interacting with the mode field, and discusses the influences of the atomic motion and the parameter of the mode field. The results show that, the atomic motion leads to the periodic death and anabiosis of the entanglement between two moving atoms, the time of the death and the amplitude of the anabiosis of the entanglement between two moving atoms depend on the initial states of two moving atoms and the parameter of the mode field.

    In this paper, the Klein--Gordon equation with the spherical symmetric Hulth\'{e}n potential is turned into a hypergeometric equation and is solved in the framework of function analysis exactly. The corresponding bound state solutions are expressed in terms of the hypergeometric function, and the energy spectrum of the bound states is obtained as a solution to a given equation by boundary constraints.

    Generation of four-photon W state via cavity QED
    钟志荣
    2008 (9):  3217-3219.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/012
    摘要 ( 1597 )   PDF(162KB) ( 582 )  
    This paper proposes an alternative scheme for generating four-photon W state via cavity QED. The scheme bases on the resonant interaction of a \Lambda -type three level atom with two bimodal cavities. The detection of atom collapses the cavity to the desired state. Comparing with previous schemes, the advantage of this scheme is that the interaction time can be greatly shortened since it uses the resonant interaction between atom and cavities. Moreover, the proposed scheme is more experimentally feasible than the previous ones.

    A quantum search algorithm of two entangled registers to realize quantum discrete Fouriertransform of signal processing
    庞朝阳, 胡本琼
    2008 (9):  3220-3226.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/013
    摘要 ( 1443 )   PDF(220KB) ( 644 )  
    The discrete Fourier transform (DFT) is the base of modern signal processing. 1-dimensional fast Fourier transform (1D FFT) and 2D FFT have time complexity O(N\log N)$ and O(N^{2}\log N) respectively. Since 1965, there has been no more essential breakthrough for the design of fast DFT algorithm. DFT has two properties. One property is that DFT is energy conservation transform. The other property is that many DFT coefficients are close to zero. The basic idea of this paper is that the generalized Grover's iteration can perform the computation of DFT which acts on the entangled states to search the big DFT coefficients until these big coefficients contain nearly all energy. One-dimensional quantum DFT (1D QDFT) and two-dimensional quantum DFT (2D QDFT) are presented in this paper. The quantum algorithm for convolution estimation is also presented in this paper. Compared with FFT, 1D and 2D QDFT have time complexity O(\sqrt{N}) and $O(N)$ respectively. QDFT and quantum convolution demonstrate that quantum computation to process classical signal is possible.

    Kinetics investigations for holographic Bragg gratingbased on polymer dispersed liquid crystal

    摘要 ( 1428 )   PDF(828KB) ( 716 )  
    This paper investigates the monomer kinetics of polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) grating. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra are used in the studies of photoreaction kinetics. The results indicate that there is a relative stable stage arises after a very short initial stage. Based on FTIR studies, the monomer diffusion equation is deduced and necessary numerical simulations are carried out to analyse the monomer conversion which is an important point to improve phase separation structure of PDLC grating. Some simulation results have a good agreement with experimental data. In addition, the effects induced by monomer diffusion constant $D$ and diffusion--polymerization-ratio rate $R$ are discussed. Results show that monomer conversion can be improved by increasing value of $D$. Besides, a good equilibrium state ($R=1$) is more beneficial to the diffusion of monomer which is important in the process of phase separation.

    Thermodynamic stability of a weakly interactingFermi gas trapped in a harmonic potential
    门福殿, 刘慧, 朱后禹
    2008 (9):  3236-3240.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/015
    摘要 ( 1556 )   PDF(149KB) ( 559 )  
    Based on the theoretical results derived from pseudopotential method and local approximation, this paper studies the thermodynamic stability of a weakly interacting Fermi gas trapped in a harmonic potential by using analytical method of thermodynamics. The effects of the interparticle interactions as well as external potential on the thermodynamic stability of the system are discussed. It is shown that the system is stable as for the complete average, but as for local parts, the system is unstable anywhere. This instability shows that the stability conditions of mechanics cannot be satisfied anywhere, and the stability conditions of thermostatics cannot be satisfied somewhere. In addition, the interactions and external potential have direct effects on the local stability of the system.

    GEKF, GUKF and GGPF based prediction of chaotic time-series with additive and multiplicative noises
    伍雪冬, 宋执环
    2008 (9):  3241-3246.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/016
    摘要 ( 1419 )   PDF(336KB) ( 636 )  
    On the assumption that random interruptions in the observation process are modelled by a sequence of independent Bernoulli random variables, this paper generalize the extended Kalman filtering (EKF), the unscented Kalman filtering (UKF) and the Gaussian particle filtering (GPF) to the case in which there is a positive probability that the observation in each time consists of noise alone and does not contain the chaotic signal (These generalized novel algorithms are referred to as GEKF, GUKF and GGPF correspondingly in this paper). Using weights and network output of neural networks to constitute state equation and observation equation for chaotic time-series prediction to obtain the linear system state transition equation with continuous update scheme in an online fashion, and the prediction results of chaotic time series represented by the predicted observation value, these proposed novel algorithms are applied to the prediction of Mackey--Glass time-series with additive and multiplicative noises. Simulation results prove that the GGPF provides a relatively better prediction performance in comparison with GEKF and GUKF.

    Novel four-wing and eight-wing attractors using coupled chaotic Lorenz systems

    2008 (9):  3247-3251.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/017
    摘要 ( 1824 )   PDF(272KB) ( 789 )  
    This paper presents the problem of generating four-wing (eight-wing) chaotic attractors. The adopted method consists in suitably coupling two (three) identical Lorenz systems. In analogy with the original Lorenz system, where the two wings of the butterfly attractor are located around the two equilibria with the unstable pair of complex-conjugate eigenvalues, this paper shows that the four wings (eight wings) of these novel attractors are located around the four (eight) equilibria with two (three) pairs of unstable complex-conjugate eigenvalues.

    Chaotic ferroresonance in a non-autonomous circuit
    惠萌, 张彦斌, 刘崇新
    2008 (9):  3258-3263.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/019
    摘要 ( 1466 )   PDF(2197KB) ( 634 )  
    Accurate description of magnetization curve has important effect on ferroresonance. In most of earlier ferroresonance studies the magnetization curve is modelled as a 3rd or 5th order polynomial. However, it is not comprehensive. This paper investigates the chaotic ferroresonance behaviour exhibited by a non-autonomous circuit which contains a nonlinear flux-controlled inductance. The ferromagnetic characteristic of this nonlinear inductance represented by a magnetization curve could be expressed as an $n$th order two-term polynomial. By varying the value of exponent $n$, the circuit can assume a diverse range of steady-state regimes including fundamental and subharmonic ferroresonance, quasi-periodic oscillations, and chaos. A detailed analysis of some simulations demonstrates that the probability of chaos increases as the exponent of the magnetization curve rises. The effect of varying the magnitude of the source voltage on the chaotic behaviour of the circuit is also studied.

    Improving performance of optical fibre chaotic communication by dispersion compensation techniques

    摘要 ( 1492 )   PDF(238KB) ( 655 )  
    This paper numerically investigates the effects of dispersion on optical fibre chaotic communication, and proposes a dispersion compensation scheme to improve the performance of optical fibre chaotic communication system. The obtained results show that the transmitter--receiver synchronization progressively degrades and the signal-to-noise ratio of the recovered message deteriorates as the fibre length increases due to the dispersion accumulation. Two segments of 2.5-km dispersion-compensating fibres are symmetrically placed at both ends of a segment of 245-km nonzero dispersion-shifted fibre with low dispersion in one compensation period. The numerical results show that the signal-to-noise ratio of the extracted 1\,GHz sinusoidal message is improved from --2.92\,dB to 15.38\,dB by this dispersion compensation for the transmission distance of 500\,km.

    摘要 ( 1459 )   PDF(241KB) ( 685 )  
    We investigate the dynamics of two tunnel-coupled Bose--Einstein condensates (BECs) in a double-well potential. The effects of the three-body recombination loss and the feeding of the condensates from the thermal cloud are studied in the case of attractive interatomic interaction. An imaginary three-body interaction term is considered and a two-mode approximation is used to derive three coupled equations which describe the total atomic numbers of the two condensates, the relative population and relative phase respectively. Theoretical analyses and numerical calculations demonstrate the existence of chaotic and hyperchaotic behaviour by using a periodically time-varying scattering length.

    This paper reports that low-temperature heat capacities of 4-(2-aminoethyl)-phenol (C_{8}H_{11}NO) are measured by a precision automated adiabatic calorimeter over the temperature range from 78 to 400\,K. A polynomial equation of heat capacities as a function of the temperature was fitted by the least square method. Based on the fitted polynomial, the smoothed heat capacities and thermodynamic functions of the compound relative to the standard reference temperature 298.15\,K were calculated and tabulated at the interval of 5\,K. The energy equivalent, \textit{\varepsilon }_{\rm calor}, of the oxygen-bomb combustion calorimeter has been determined from 0.68\,g of NIST 39i benzoic acid to be \textit{ \varepsilon }_{\rm calor}=(14674.69\pm 17.49)J \cdot K^{ - 1}. The constant-volume energy of combustion of the compound at T=298.15\,K was measured by a precision oxygen-bomb combustion calorimeter to be \Delta _{\rm c}U=--(32374.25\pm 12.93)J \cdot g^{ - 1}. The standard molar enthalpy of combustion for the compound was calculated to be \Delta _{\rm c} H_{\rm m}^\ominus = { - }(4445.47\pm 1.77)\,{\rm kJ} \cdot \mbox{mol}^{{ - 1}} according to the definition of enthalpy of combustion and other thermodynamic principles. Finally, the standard molar enthalpy of formation of the compound was derived to be \Delta _{\rm f} H_{\rm m}^\ominus (\rm C_8 H_{11} NO,s){ = - (274.68}\pm 2\mbox{.06)\,kJ} \cdot \mbox{mol}^{{\rm - 1}}, in accordance with Hess law.

    Phase transition in evolution of traffic flow with scale-free property

    This paper investigates the behaviour of traffic flow in traffic systems with a new model based on the NaSch model and cluster approximation of mean-field theory. The proposed model aims at constructing a mapping relationship between the microcosmic behaviour and the macroscopic property of traffic flow. Results demonstrate that scale-free phenomenon of the evolution network becomes obvious when the density value of traffic flow reaches at the critical point of phase transition from free flow to traffic congestion, and jamming is limited in this scale-free structure.

    We investigate the 3PF2 neutron superfluidity in β-stable neutron star matter and neutron stars by using the BCS theory and the Brueckner--Hartree--Fock approach. We adopt the Argonne V18 potential supplemented with a microscopic three-body force as the realistic nucleon--nucleon interaction. We have concentrated on studying the three-body force effect on the 3PF2 neutron pairing gap. It is found that the three-body force effect is to enhance remarkably the 3PF2 neutron superfluidity in neutron star matter and neutron stars.

    This paper calculates the transition wavelengths and probabilities of the two-electron and one-photon (TEOP) transition from the $(3{\rm s}^{-1}_{1/2}4{\rm d}_{j})_{J=1,2}$ to $(3{\rm p}^{-1}_{3/2}4{\rm s}_{1/2})_{J=1}$ and the $(3{\rm p}^{-1}_{1/2}4{\rm s}_{1/2})_{J=1}$ to $(3{\rm d}^{-1}_{j}4{\rm d}_{j'})_{J=1,2}$ for highly charged Ni-like ions with atomic number $Z$ in the range $47\leq Z\leq92$. In the calculations, the multi-configuration Dirac--Fock method and corresponding program packages GRASP92 and REOS99 were used, and the relativistic effects, correlation effects and relaxation effects were considered systematically. It is found that the TEOP transitions are very sensitive to the correlation of electrons, and the probabilities will be enhanced sharply in some special $Z$ regions along the isoelectronic sequence. The present TEOP transition wavelengths are compared with the available data from some previous publications, good agreement is obtained.

    This paper reports that hexagonal-phase LaF$_{3}$:Yb$^{3 + }_{0.20}$, Er$^{3 + }_{0.02}$ and LaF$_{3}$:Yb$^{3 + }_{0.20}$, Tm$^{3 + }_{0.02}$ nanocrystals (NCs) were synthesized via a hydrothermal method. The transmission electron microscopy, selected area electron diffraction, powder x-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analysis are used to characterize the NCs. Under 980 nm excitation, the Yb$^{3 + }$/Er$^{3 + }$ and Yb$^{3 + }$/Tm$^{3 + }$ codoped NCs colloidal solutions present bright green and blue upconversion fluorescence, respectively. These NCs show efficient infrared-to-violet and infrared-to-visible upconversion. The upconversion fluorescence mechanisms of LaF$_{3}$:Yb$^{3 + }_{0.20}$, Er$^{3 + }_{0.02}$ and LaF$_{3}$:Yb$^{3 + }_{0.20}$, Tm$^{3 + }_{0.02}$ NCs are investigated with a 980-nm diode laser as excitation source.

    This paper reports the experimental results on electromagnetically induced absorption (EIA) spectra observed in the system which does not satisfy completely the conditions given by Lezama {\it et al} [1999 \wx{Phys. Rev. {\rm A}}{59} 4732]. EIA signals on the transitions in the Cs $D_{2}$ line are able to be observed, where $F_{\rm g} \leftrightarrow F_{\rm e}=F_{\rm g}-1$ as open systems. Theoretical model of Lezama {\it et al} is good for the case $F_{\rm g} \leftrightarrow F_{\rm e}=F_{\rm g}+1$, considering spontaneous transfer of atomic coherences or populations this model is not able to explain our experimental results obtained in the case $F_{\rm g} \leftrightarrow F_{\rm e}=F_{\rm g}-1$. This paper offers a theoretical model which is able to well explain the case $F_{\rm g} \leftrightarrow F_{\rm e}=F_{\rm g}-1$. It also uses this theoretical model to explain the split and shift of EIA peaks, which have been obtained in experiments.

The temperature dependent frequencies of the longitudinal and transverse optical phonon have been obtained from the real part of optical conductivity and the loss function respectively. A small Drude component is observed at frequency below 300\,cm$^{ - 1}$ which could arise from Li ions or oxygen deficiencies. The ionicity of LiGaO2 has been studied from the analysis of the Born effective charge of different ions.

    摘要 ( 1432 )   PDF(445KB) ( 661 )  
    This paper carries out {\it ab initio} calculations to study the 80Se2(X3\Sigmag-) state and 80Se2+(X2\Pig, 80Se2+(a4\Pig) states by using completed active space self-consistent field and multi-reference second order perturbation theory. The electronic curves of these states including spin--orbit coupling are calculated, and then the spectroscopic parameters are obtained. The photoelectron spectra of 80Se2 molecule in gas phase are assigned according to Franck--Condon analysis based on calculated potential energy curves. The ionization energies of 80Se2 molecule are determined by the present calculation.

    The anisotropic potential developed in our previous research and the close-coupling method are applied to the HBr--$^{3}$He ($^{4}$He, $^{5}$He, $^{6}$He, $^{7}$He) system, and the partial cross sections (PCSs) at the incident energy of 60\,meV are calculated. Based on the calculations, the influences of the isotope helium atom on PCSs are discussed in detail. The results show that the excitation PCSs converge faster than the elastic PCSs for the collision energy and the systems considered here. Also the excitation PCSs converge more rapidly for the high-excited states. The tail effect is present only in elastic scattering and low-excited states but not in high-excited states. With the increase of reduced mass of the collision system, the converging speed of the elastic and excitation PCSs slows down, and the tail effect goes up.

    Energy and structure of copper clusters (n=70--150) studied by the Monte Carlo computer simulation
    潘小东, 盖志刚, 李公平
    2008 (9):  3329-3335.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/031
    摘要 ( 1462 )   PDF(1039KB) ( 670 )  
    The structure and binding energy of copper clusters of the size range 70 to 150 were studied by using the embedded-atom method. The stability of the structure of the clusters was studied by calculating the average binding energy per atom, first difference energy and second difference energy of copper cluster. Most of the copper clusters of the size $n$=70--150 adopt an icosahedral structure. The results show that the trends are in agreement with theoretic prediction for copper clusters. The most stable structures for copper clusters are found at $n$=77, 90, 95, 131, 139.

    First-principles calculations for titanium monoxide clusters TinO (n=1--9)
    卢章辉, 曹觉先
    2008 (9):  3336-3342.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/032
    摘要 ( 1560 )   PDF(824KB) ( 759 )  
    Based on the density-functional theory, this paper studies the geometric and magnetic properties of Ti$_{n}$O ($n$=1--9) clusters. The resulting geometries show that the oxygen atom remains on the surface of clusters and does not change the geometry of Ti$_{n}$ significantly. The binding energy, second-order energy differences with the size of clusters show that Ti$_{7}$O cluster is endowed with special stability. The stability of Ti$_{n}$O clusters is validated by the recent time-of-flight mass spectra. The total magnetic moments for Ti$_{n}$O clusters with $n$=1--4, 8--9 are constant with 2 and drop to zero at $n$=5--7. The local magnetic moment and charge partition of each atom, and the density of states are discussed. The magnetic moment of the Ti$_{n}$O is clearly dominated by the localized 3d electrons of Ti atoms while the oxygen atom contributes a very small amount of spin in Ti$_{n}$O clusters.

    Coalescence of heteroclusters Au767 and Ag767: a molecular-dynamics study
    李国建, 王强, 李虎田, 王凯, 赫冀成
    2008 (9):  3343-3349.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/033
    摘要 ( 1349 )   PDF(1882KB) ( 641 )  
    This paper studies the coalescence of heteroclusters Au$_{767}$ and Ag$_{767}$ by using molecular dynamics with the embedded atom method, where layer atomic energy is employed to describe the potential energy variation of per atom in different layers along radial direction. The results show that the coalescence is driven by releasing the atomic energy of the coalesced zone. The deformation, which is induced by substitutional and vacancy diffusion during the coalescence, makes the coalesced cluster disorder. If the summation of the thermal energy and the released atomic energy is large enough to keep the disorder state, the clusters form a metastable liquid droplet; otherwise, the clusters coalesce into a solid cluster when the coalesced cluster reaches the equilibrium state, and the coalesced cluster experiences liquid to solid ordering changes during the coalescence of a solid Au$_{767}$ with a liquid Ag$_{767}$ and a liquid Au$_{767}$ with a liquid Ag$_{767}$. The centre of figure of the cluster system is shifted during the coalescence process, and higher coalescence temperature causes larger shift degree.

    Finite-dimensional even and odd nonlinear pair coherent states and their some nonclassical properties
    孟祥国, 王继锁, 刘堂昆
    2008 (9):  3350-3357.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/034
    摘要 ( 1298 )   PDF(233KB) ( 527 )  
    In this paper a new class of finite-dimensional even and odd nonlinear pair coherent states (EONLPCSs), which can be realized via operating the superposed evolution operators $D_\pm (\tau )$ on the state $\left| {q,0} \right\rangle $, is constructed, then their orthonormalized property, completeness relations and some nonclassical properties are discussed. It is shown that the finite-dimensional EONLPCSs possess normalization and completeness relations. Moreover, the finite-dimensional EONLPCSs exhibit remarkably different sub-Poissonian distributions and phase probability distributions for different values of parameters $q$, $\eta $ and $\xi $.

    The dispersive properties of an excited-doubletfour-level atomic system
    胡正峰, 邓见辽, 王育竹
    2008 (9):  3358-3362.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/035
    摘要 ( 1483 )   PDF(496KB) ( 571 )  
    We have investigated the dispersive properties of excited-doublet four-level atoms interacting with a weak probe field and an intense coupling laser field. We have derived an analytical expression of the dispersion relation for a general excited-doublet four-level atomic system subject to a one-photon detuning. The numerical results demonstrate that for a typical rubidium $\rm {D1}$ line configuration, due to the unequal dipole moments for the transitions of each ground state to double excited states, generally there exists no exact dark state in the system. Close to the two-photon resonance, the probe light can be absorbed or gained and propagate in the so-called superluminal form. This system may be used as an optical switch.

    Influence of patterned TiO2/SiO2 dielectric multilayers for back and front mirror facetson GaN-based laser diodes
    陈伟华, 胡晓东, 代涛, 李睿, 叶学敏, 赵太平, 杜为民, 杨志坚, 张国义

    摘要 ( 1273 )   PDF(1927KB) ( 875 )  
    Ridge InGaN multi-quantum-well-structure (MQW) edge-emitting laser diodes (LDs) were grown on (0001) sapphire substrates by low-pressure metal-organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD). The dielectric TiO$_{2}$/SiO$_{2}$ front and back facet coatings as cavity mirror facets of the LDs have been deposited with electron-beam evaporation method. The reflectivity of the designed front coating is about 50{\%} and that of the back high reflective coating is as high as 99.9{\%}. Under pulsed current injection at room temperature, the influences of the dielectric facets were discussed. The threshold current of the ridge GaN-based LDs was decreased after the deposition of the back high reflective dielectric mirrors and decreased again after the front facets were deposited. Above the threshold, the slope efficiency of the LDs with both reflective facets was larger than those with only back facets and without any reflective facets. It is important to design the reflectivity of the front facets for improving the performance of GaN-based LDs.

    Study on the optical limiting properties of the mixed liquid of carbon black suspensions and green tea solution by multi-pulse laser
    牛燕雄, 杨海林, 张鹏, 沈学举, 姜楠, 陈燕, 唐芳
    2008 (9):  3367-3371.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/037
    摘要 ( 1305 )   PDF(1315KB) ( 664 )  
    The optical limiting properties of the mixed liquid of carbon black suspensions (CBS) and green tea solution were studied by using an 8 ns laser pulse at 532\,nm. The optical limiting effects of the CBS and mixed liquid have been compared between 5 and 10\,Hz repetition frequencies with nanosecond laser pulse. The experimental results indicate that the optical limiting threshold of the sample with the incidence laser at 10\,Hz repetition frequency is lower than at 5\,Hz repetition frequency. The possible reasons for the influence of the repetition frequency on the samples are discussed. And by observing the optical radiant distributions when the laser pulse passing through different samples, a possible mechanism for the observed effects is suggested. At the same time, the result shows that the optical limiting of CBS is the dominant factor to optical limiting of the mixed liquid.

    2008 (9):  3372-3377.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/038
    摘要 ( 1430 )   PDF(210KB) ( 575 )  
    This paper describes the evolution of vapour bubbles and its effect on nonlinear ultrasound propagation and temperature rise through tissues for therapeutic ultrasound. An acoustic-thermo coupling algorithm incorporating nonlinearity, diffraction, and temperature-dependent tissue properties, is employed to describe nonlinear ultrasound propagation and thermal effect. Results demonstrate that an obvious migration of peak pressure toward transducer surface is observed while the position of peak temperature changes little in liver tissue before the generation of vapour bubbles, and that the boiling region enlarges towards the surface of transducer in axial direction but increases slowly in radial direction after the generation of vapour bubbles.

    A one-dimensional (1D) Frenkel--Kontorova (FK) model is studied numerically in this paper, and two new analytical solutions (a supersonic kink and a nonlinear periodic wave) of the Sine--Gordon (SG) equation (continuum limit approximation of the FK model) are obtained by using the Jacobi elliptic function expansion method. Taking these new solutions as initial conditions for the FK model, we numerically find there exist the supersonic kink and the nonlinear periodic wave in these systems and obtain a lot of interesting and significant results. Moreover, we also investigate the subsonic kink and the breather in these systems and obtain some new feature.

    Second-order solutions for random interfacial waves in N-layer density-stratified fluid with steady uniform currents
    陈小刚, 郭志萍, 宋金宝
    2008 (9):  3387-3393.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/040
    摘要 ( 1401 )   PDF(186KB) ( 484 )  
    In the present paper, the random interfacial waves in $N$-layer density-stratified fluids moving at different steady uniform speeds are researched by using an expansion technique, and the second-order asymptotic solutions of the random displacements of the density interfaces and the associated velocity potentials in $N$-layer fluid are presented based on the small amplitude wave theory. The obtained results indicate that the wave--wave second-order nonlinear interactions of the wave components and the second-order nonlinear interactions between the waves and currents are described. As expected, the solutions include those derived by Chen (2006) as a special case where the steady uniform currents of the $N$-layer fluids are taken as zero, and the solutions also reduce to those obtained by Song (2005) for second-order solutions for random interfacial waves with steady uniform currents if $N = 2$.

    Distribution characteristic of scattering field for an ellipsoidal target irradiated by an electromagnetic wave from an arbitrary direction
    李应乐, 黄际英, 王明军, 张家田
    2008 (9):  3394-3401.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/041
    摘要 ( 1358 )   PDF(293KB) ( 519 )  
    It is of great importance for engineering applications to obtain the expression of scattering field for an ellipsoidal target irradiated by an electromagnetic wave from an arbitrary direction. Literature relevant to this problem is seldom found. In this paper, the scattering field for an ellipsoidal target is presented by utilizing the scale transformation of electromagnetic field and the rotation of coordinate system, with an electromagnetic wave projecting on the target from an arbitrary direction. The obtained result is in good agreement with the solution available from the literature if we consider the scale factors to be unity. Taking a conducting ellipsoidal target for sample, we perform the partial simulations of the ellipsoidal model and a plant leaf model by choosing different scale factors. The obtained results show that the distribution characteristic of scattering field is sensitively affected by the polarization of the incident wave and varies not much with the incident wave angle but changes with the observation point. At some points the scattering energy arrives at its maximum.

    Study of a rectangular coupled cavity extendedinteraction oscillator in sub-terahertz waves
    张开春, 吴振华, 刘盛纲
    2008 (9):  3402-3406.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/042
    摘要 ( 1564 )   PDF(1466KB) ( 1186 )  
    An extended interaction oscillator (EIO) generating 120\,GHz wave in sub-terahertz waves is studied by using the three-dimensional electromagnetic simulation software CST and PIC codes. A rectangular reentrant coupled-cavity is proposed as the slow-wave structure of EIO. By CST, the circuit parameters including frequency-phase dispersion, interaction impedance and characteristic impedance are simulated and calculated. The operation mode of EIO is chosen very close to the point where $\beta L=2\pi$ with corresponding frequency 120\,GHz, the beam voltage 12\,kV and the dimensions of the cavity with the period 0.5\,mm, the height 3\,mm and the width 1.4\,mm. Simulation results of beam--wave interaction by PIC show that the exciting frequency is 120.85\,GHz and output peak power 465\,W with 12-period coupled-cavity with the perveance 0.17\,$\mu$P. Simulation results indicate that the EIO has very wide range of the operation voltage.

    摘要 ( 1972 )   PDF(222KB) ( 472 )  
    Transparent Yb doped YAG, YSAG and YaLaO3 ceramics are fabricated by using the co-precipitation method. The spectral properties and thermal parameters of these Yb doped cubic phase transparent ceramics are compared, and their different and potential applications are also analysed. The absorption cross-section and the emission cross-section of these ceramics are measured and calculated. The essential properties of these materials especially for the rep-rated pulsed high-energy diode-pumped solid-state lasers are investigated. The results show that Yb doped YAG, YSAG and YaLaO$_3$ are all suitable materials used for diode-pumped solid-state lasers.

    摘要 ( 1555 )   PDF(2926KB) ( 803 )  
    This paper applies techniques of containerless processing, drop tube and glass fluxing, to undercool and solidify Ni77P23 alloys. Different diameter spheres were collected at the bottom of a 52-m long drop tube. Both crystalline and amorphous phase were formed in various size specimens due to the different cooling rate. The variation of partial undercooling with bulk undercooling is calculated for the Ni77P23 alloys. The deep undercooling and rapid solidification behaviour of Ni77P23 melts has been analysed with respect to microstructure formation and transition during fluxing and 52-m drop process of undercooled melts.

    摘要 ( 1599 )   PDF(2684KB) ( 826 )  
    In order to search for promising candidates for spintronic applications, this paper systematically studies three ternary compounds based on Mn5Ge3 by using a full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method within the density functional theory. Through structure optimization and electronic structure calculations, it finds that Mn4FeGe3 and Mn4CoGe3 have much higher spin-polarization than original intermetallic compound Mn5Ge3, although the spin polarization of Mn4NiGe3 is lower than that of Mn$_{5}$Ge3. The calculated result is in agreement with experiment in the case of Mn4FeGe3. Both of them can be taken as promising candidates for spintronics applications because of their high spin-polarization and compatibility with semiconductors.

    This paper investigates the mechanism of Li insertion into interphase Ni$_{3}$Sn in Ni--Sn alloy for the anode of lithium ion battery by means of the first-principles plane-wave pseudopotential. Compared with other phases, it is found that the Ni$_{3}$Sn has larger relative expansion ratio and lower electrochemical potential, with its specific plateaus voltage around 0.3eV when lithium atoms are filled in all octahedral interstitial sites, and the relative expansion ratio increasing dramatically when the lithiated phase transits from octahedral interstitial sites to tetrahedral interstitial sites. So this phase is a devastating phase for whole alloy electrode materials.

    Common electronic band gaps and similar optical properties of ZnO nanotubes
    杨玉荣, 颜晓红, 郭朝晖, 邓宇翔
    2008 (9):  3433-3437.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/048
    摘要 ( 1407 )   PDF(188KB) ( 711 )  
    Electronic and optical properties of single-walled zinc oxide (ZnO) nanotubes are investigated from the first-principles calculations. Electronic structure calculations show that ZnO nanotubes are all direct band gap semiconducting nanotubes and the band gaps are relatively insensitive to the diameter and chirality of tubes. The origin of the common electronic band gaps of ZnO nanotubes is explained in terms of band-folding from the two-dimensional band structure of graphite-like sheet. Moreover, the optical properties such as dielectric function and energy loss function spectra of different ZnO nanotubes are very similar, relatively independent of diameter and chirality of tubes. The calculated dielectric function and loss function spectra show a moderate optical anisotropy with respect to light polarization.

    Spin-dependent tunnelling through an indirect double-barrier structure

    2008 (9):  3438-3443.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/049
    摘要 ( 1459 )   PDF(542KB) ( 567 )  
    We use the transfer matrix method to study the quantum tunnelling through an indirect-band-gap double-barrier like the GaAs/AlAs/GaAs/AlAs/GaAs heterostructures along the [001] axis, which is described by the tight-binding model. The $X$-valley quasi-bound state gives rise to the Fano resonance different from the direct double-barrier transition in a resonance-tunnelling diode. The quantitative calculations demonstrate that a relatively high spin-polarization of the transmission probability can be achieved as compared with the single-barrier tunnelling case. Moreover the extension to the multi-barrier device is provided and leads to an important observation that the spin polarization increases with the number of barriers.

    Cathodoluminescent and electrical properties of an individual ZnO nanowire with oxygen vacancies

    A single ZnO nanowire with intrinsic oxygen vacancies is utilized to fabricate four-contact device with focus ion beam lithography technique. Cathodoluminescent spectra indicate strong near-UV and green emission at both room temperature and low temperatures. Experimental measurement shows the temperature-dependent conductivity of the ZnO nanowire at low temperatures (below 100\,K). The further theoretical analysis confirms that weak localization plays an important role in the electrical transport, which is attributed to the surface states induced by plenty of oxygen vacancies in ZnO nanowire.

    Influence of reaction gas flows on the properties of SiGe:H thin film prepared by plasma assisted reactive thermal chemical vapour deposition

    摘要 ( 1391 )   PDF(1358KB) ( 647 )  
    A new preparing technology, very high frequency plasma assisted reactive thermal chemical vapour deposition (VHFPA-RTCVD), is introduced to prepare SiGe:H thin films on substrate kept at a lower temperature. In the previous work, reactive thermal chemical vapour deposition (RTCVD) technology was successfully used to prepare SiGe:H thin films, but the temperature of the substrate needed to exceed 400\du. In this work, very high frequency plasma method is used to assist RTCVD technology in reducing the temperature of substrate by largely enhancing the temperature of reacting gases on the surface of the substrate. The growth rate, structural properties, surface morphology, photo-conductivity and dark-conductivity of SiGe:H thin films prepared by this new technology are investigated for films with different germanium concentrations, and the experimental results are discussed.

    In situ infrared spectroscopic study of cubicboron nitride thin film delamination
    杨杭生, 张健英, 聂安民, 张孝彬
    2008 (9):  3453-3458.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/052
    摘要 ( 1439 )   PDF(2921KB) ( 730 )  
    This paper investigates the procedure of cubic boron nitride (cBN) thin film delamination by Fourier-transform infrared (IR) spectroscopy. It finds that the apparent IR absorption peak area near 1380\,cm$^{-1}$ and 1073\,cm$^{-1}$ attributed to the B--N stretching vibration of sp$^{2}$-bonded BN and the transverse optical phonon of cBN, respectively, increased up to 195{\%} and 175{\%} of the original peak area after film delamination induced compressive stress relaxation. The increase of IR absorption of sp$^{2}$-bonded BN is found to be non-linear and hysteretic to film delamination, which suggests that the relaxation of the turbostratic BN (tBN) layer from the compressed condition is also hysteretic to film delamination. Moreover, cross-sectional transmission electron microscopic observations revealed that cBN film delamination is possible from near the aBN(amorphous BN)/tBN interface at least for films prepared by plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition.

    Raman analysis of defects in n-type 4H-SiC
    杨银堂, 韩茹, 王平
    2008 (9):  3459-3463.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/053
    摘要 ( 1556 )   PDF(1309KB) ( 951 )  
    This paper employs micro-Raman technique for detailed analysis of the defects (both inside and outside) in bulk 4H-SiC. The main peaks of the first-order Raman spectrum obtained in the centre of defect agree well with those of perfect bulk 4H-SiC, which indicate that there is no parasitic polytype in the round pit and the hexagonal defect. Four electronic Raman scattering peaks from nitrogen defect levels are observed in the round pit (395\,cm$^{-1}$, 526\,cm$^{-1}$, 572\,cm$^{-1}$, and 635\,cm$^{-1})$, but cannot be found in the spectra of hexagonal defect. The theoretical analysis of the longitudinal optical plasmon--phonon coupled mode line shape indicates the nonuniformity of nitrogen distribution between the hexagonal defect and the outer area in 4H-SiC. The second-order Raman features of the defects in bulk 4H-SiC are well-defined using the selection rules for second-order scattering in wurtzite structure and compared with that in the free defect zone.

    This paper reports that the intrinsic microcrystalline silicon ($\mu $c-Si:H) films are prepared with plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition from silane/hydrogen mixtures at 200\du\ with the aim to increase the deposition rate. An increase of the deposition rate to 0.88\,nm/s is obtained by using a plasma excitation frequency of 75\,MHz. This increase is obtained by the combination of a higher deposition pressure, an increased silane concentration, and higher discharge powers. In addition, the transient behaviour, which can decrease the film crystallinity, could be prevented by filling the background gas with H$_{2}$ prior to plasma ignition, and selecting proper discharging time after silane flow injection. Material prepared under these conditions at a deposition rate of 0.78\,nm/s maintains higher crystallinity and fine electronic properties. By H-plasma treatment before i-layer deposition, single junction $\mu $c-Si:H solar cells with 5.5{\%} efficiency are fabricated.

    Self-organized GaN/AlN hexagonal quantum-dots:strain distribution and electronic structure
    刘玉敏, 俞重远, 任晓敏, 徐子欢
    2008 (9):  3471-3478.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/055
    摘要 ( 1474 )   PDF(2993KB) ( 757 )  
    This paper presents a finite element method of calculating strain distributions in and around the self-organized GaN/AlN hexagonal quantum dots. The model is based on the continuum elastic theory, which is capable of treating a quantum dot with an arbitrary shape. A truncated hexagonal pyramid shaped quantum dot is adopted in this paper. The electronic energy levels of the GaN/AlN system are calculated by solving a three-dimension effective mass Shr\"{o}dinger equation including a strain modified confinement potential and polarization effects. The calculations support the previous results published in the literature.

    Study of valence intersubband absorption in tensile strained Si/SiGe quantum wells
    林桂江, 赖虹凯, 李成, 陈松岩, 余金中
    2008 (9):  3479-3483.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/056
    摘要 ( 1434 )   PDF(212KB) ( 630 )  
    The hole subband structures and effective masses of tensile strained Si/Si$_{1 - y }$Ge$_{y}$ quantum wells are calculated by using the 6$\times $6 $k\cdot p$ method. The results show that when the tensile strain is induced in the quantum well, the light-hole state becomes the ground state, and the light hole effective masses in the growth direction are strongly reduced while the in-plane effective masses are considerable. Quantitative calculation of the valence intersubband transition between two light hole states in a 7nm tensile strained Si/Si$_{0.55}$Ge$_{0.45}$ quantum well grown on a relaxed Si$_{0.5}$Ge$_{0.5}$ (100) substrates shows a large absorption coefficient of 8400 cm$^{ - 1}$.

    Superconductivity without dependence on valenceelectron density in Zn doped YBCO systems
    李平林, 王永永, 田永涛, 汪静, 牛晓丽, 王俊喜, 王单丹, 王晓霞
    2008 (9):  3484-3489.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/057
    摘要 ( 1420 )   PDF(393KB) ( 556 )  
    This paper reports that the YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3 - x}$Zn$_{x}$O$_{7 - \delta }\ (x=0-0.4$) samples are researched by means of x-ray diffraction, calculations of binding energy, the positron experiments and variations of oxygen content. The results of simulated calculations, positron experiments and variations of oxygen content support the existence of cluster effect. Moreover, it is concluded that the cluster effect is an important factor on suppression of high-$T_{\rm c}$ cuprate superconductivity and the $T_{\rm c}$ does not depend on the density of valence electron directly.

    Effect of magnetic field on the spin-Peierls transition in single-crystal CuGeO
    王清波, 徐象繁, 陶前, 王洪涛, 许祝安
    2008 (9):  3490-3494.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/058
    摘要 ( 1427 )   PDF(415KB) ( 688 )  
    This paper reports that high quality CuGeO$_{3}$ single crystals were successfully grown by floating-zone technique and the magnetic property was studied. The temperature dependence of magnetic susceptibility below the spin-Peierls (SP) transition temperature ($T_{\rm sp})$ under magnetic fields applying along both the $a$- and $c$-axis direction can be fitted well by a model of noninteracting dimmers. The spin gap derived from the fitting is consistent with other reports. There is a very weak anisotropy in the fitting parameters for different directions, which should be expected from a SP system. A small upturn in susceptibility at low temperature due to paramagnetic impurities and/or defects can be observed. A suppression of the upturn by magnetic field is first discovered in this system and the possible origins for this suppression are discussed.

    Temperature-driven spin reorientation transitionof magnetron sputtered nickel thin film
    宋小会, 张殿琳
    2008 (9):  3495-3498.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/059
    摘要 ( 1473 )   PDF(622KB) ( 609 )  
    The temperature-driven spin reorientation transition of magnetron sputtered Ni/Si (111) systems has been studied. The relationship between ac initial susceptibility and temperature of nickel films with different thicknesses shows that the magnetization orientation changes from in-plane to out-of-plane with the increase of temperature. The temperature dependence of magnetoelastic, magneto-crystalline, and magnetostatic anisotropies determines the direction of the reorientation transition. The temperature-driven spin reorientation transition is supported by Hall coefficient measurements which show that its temperature dependence is similar to that of susceptibility.

    Anomalous magnetic properties of an iron film system deposited on fracture surfaces of α-Al2O3 ceramics
    焦志伟, 陈苗根, 姜伟棣, 冯春木, 叶高翔
    2008 (9):  3499-3504.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/060
    摘要 ( 1231 )   PDF(727KB) ( 543 )  
    An iron film percolation system is fabricated by vapour-phase deposition on fracture surfaces of α-Al2O3 ceramics. The zero-field-cooled (ZFC) and field-cooled (FC) magnetization measurement reveals that the magnetic phase of the film samples evolve from a high-temperature ferromagnetic state to a low-temperature spin-glass-like state, which is also demonstrated by the temperature-dependent ac susceptibility of the iron films. The temperature dependence of the exchange bias field $H_{\rm e}$ of the iron film exhibits a minimum peak around the temperature $T$=5\,K, which is independent of the magnitude of the cooling field $H_{\rm cf}$. However, for $T > 10$\,K, (1) $H_{\rm e}$ is always negative when $H_{\rm cf}$=2\,kOe and (2) for $H_{\rm cf }$= 20\,kOe (1Oe$\approx$80\,A/m), $H_{\rm e}$ changes from negative to positive values as T increases. Our experimental results show that the anomalous hysteresis properties mainly result from the oxide surfaces of the films with spin-glass-like phase.

    Theoretical investigation on near-infrared and visible absorption spectra of nanometallic aluminium with oxide coating in nanoenergetic materials: size and shape effects
    彭亚晶, 张淑平, 王英惠, 杨延强
    2008 (9):  3505-3511.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/061
    摘要 ( 1372 )   PDF(1351KB) ( 826 )  
    The effects of metal core dimension, oxide shell thickness and ellipsoid aspect ratio of Al--Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$ core-shell nanoparticles on the near-infrared and visible absorption spectra of nanocomposite Al--Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$/nitrocellulose(NC) film are investigated by numerical calculations. Both the size-dependent interband transitions and frequency-dependent free electron damping of the nanometallic aluminium are taken into account in the calculations. Oxidation effect of nanoaluminium is also analysed. It is shown that oxidation may enhance but may also reduce the optical absorption, depending on the excited light energy and initial dimension of nanoparticle. Metal core size and excited light energy dominate the absorption characteristic. The absorption ability of ellipsoidal nanoparticles is larger than that of spheroidal nanoparticles and increases by the square index as the aspect ratio increases. These calculations will provide some significant theoretical guidance for the preparation and laser ignition of nanoenergetic materials.

    Surface oxidation of vanadium dioxide films prepared by radio frequency magnetron sputtering
    王学进, 梁春军, 管康萍, 李德华, 聂玉昕, 朱世秋, 黄峰, 张葳葳, 成正维
    2008 (9):  3512-3515.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/062
    摘要 ( 1332 )   PDF(156KB) ( 960 )  
    This paper reports that the thermochromic vanadium dioxide films were deposited on various transparent substrates by radio frequency magnetron sputtering, and then aged under circumstance for years. Samples were characterized with several different techniques such as x-ray diffraction, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Raman, when they were fresh from sputter chamber and aged after years, respectively, in order to determine their structure and composition. It finds that a small amount of sodium occurred on the surface of vanadium dioxide films, which was probably due to sodium ion diffusion from soda-lime glass when sputtering was performed at high substrate temperature. It also finds that aging for years significantly affected the nonstoichiometry of vanadium dioxide films, thus inducing much change in Raman modes.

    Phase field simulation of the columnar dendritic growth and microsegregation in a binary alloy
    李俊杰, 王锦程, 杨根仓
    2008 (9):  3516-3522.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/063
    摘要 ( 1350 )   PDF(1374KB) ( 765 )  
    This paper applies a phase field model for polycrystalline solidification in binary alloys to simulate the formation and growth of the columnar dendritic array under the isothermal and constant cooling conditions. The solidification process and microsegregation in the mushy zone are analysed in detail. It is shown that under the isothermal condition solidification will stop after the formation of the mushy zone, but dendritic coarsening will progress continuously, which results in the decrease of the total interface area. Under the constant cooling condition the mushy zone will solidify and coarsen simultaneously. For the constant cooling solidification, microsegregation predicted by a modified Brody-Flemings model is compared with the simulation results. It is found that the Fourier number which characterizes microsegregation is different for regions with different microstructures. Dendritic coarsening and the larger area of interface should account for the enhanced Fourier number in the region with well developed second dendritic arms.

    Phase-field study for the splitting behaviour of precipitate under applied stress
    张玉祥, 王锦程, 杨玉娟, 杨根仓, 周尧和
    2008 (9):  3523-3530.  doi: 10.1088/1674-1056/17/9/064
    摘要 ( 1274 )   PDF(671KB) ( 753 )  
    This paper employs the phase-field method to study the splitting behaviour of a single coherent particle under an applied uniaxial stress. It finds that the splitting behaviour is greatly influenced by the initial shape of precipitates, the bulk free energy condition, the degree of supersaturation and the ratio of the interfacial energy to the elastic strain energy, etc. The simulated results demonstrate that the aspect ratio of the particle determines whether the splitting can occur and how many split plates can be obtained. The splitting of particle is sensitive to the interfacial energy, i.e.~the splitting becomes more and more difficult with increasing the ratio of the interfacial energy to the elastic strain energy. And increasing the magnitude of the applied stress is favourable to the splitting. The splitting process is also explained from the point of view of the corresponding diffusion potential.
