THE MULTIPLE IONIZATION OF ARGON INDUCED BY PARTIALLY STRIPPED CARBON IONS CAI XIAO-HONG (蔡晓红), SHEN ZI-YONG (申自勇), CHEN XI-MENG (陈熙萌), LIU ZHAO-YUAN (刘兆远), MA XIN-WEN (马新文), LIU HUI-PING (刘惠萍), HOU MING-DONG (侯明东) Acta Physica Sinica (Overseas Edition), 1997, 6 (1):  6-12.  DOI: 10.1088/1004-423X/6/1/002 Abstract ( 1229 )   PDF (236KB) ( 454 )   The cross section ratios of the double, triple and quadruplicate ionization to the single ionization of argon by 1.5-7.5 MeV partially stripped carbon ions are measured by using time-of-flight technique. The Auger transition and the charge exchange process in the multiple ionization of argon are studied. The ratios of cross sections of the direct multiple ionization to those of the direct single ionization are obtained by subtracting the parts of the Auger transition and the charge exchange process from the measured data. It is found that the cross section ratios of the direct multiple ionization to those of the direct single ionization are in good agreement with the predicted mniti-step ($\nu$/qeff)-2n+2 law.

ELECTROMAGNETICALLY INDUCED FOCUSING IN A $\Lambda$-TYPE MEDIUM GONG SHANG-QING (龚尚庆), XU ZHI-ZHAN (徐至展), PAN SHAO-HUA Acta Physica Sinica (Overseas Edition), 1997, 6 (1):  13-17.  DOI: 10.1088/1004-423X/6/1/003 Abstract ( 977 )   PDF (120KB) ( 417 )   Electromagnetlcally induced transparency (EIT) in an inhomogenously broadened medium consisting of $\Lambda$-type three-level atoms has been analyzed. It is shown that the A system can induce a transparency of the medhun when the probe laser and the coupling laser have the same frequency detunings (including zero). Across the EIT window, the radial variation of the strong coupling laser radiation may lead to electromagnetically induced focusing or defocusing of the weak probe laser at separate probe frequency detuning points.

GENERATION OF MULTI-WAVELENGTH VISIBLE LIGHT IN Er3+-DOPED AND Er3+/Yb3+-DOPED SINGLE-MODE OPTICAL FIBER PUMPED AT 1313 nm HU WEI (胡巍), LIU DONG-FENG (刘东峰), CHEN GUO-FU (陈国夫), WANG XIAN-HUA (王贤华), HOU XUN (候洵) Acta Physica Sinica (Overseas Edition), 1997, 6 (1):  18-23.  DOI: 10.1088/1004-423X/6/1/004 Abstract ( 1130 )   PDF (190KB) ( 396 )   We report the generation of multi-wavelength visible light through amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) in Er3+-doped and Er3+/Yb3+-doped germanosilicate single-mode optical fiber pumped by a Nd:YLF laser at 1313nm. In the Er3+-doped fiber, the intense multi-wavelength blue emission hnes around 463-510nm corre-spond to transitions born 2G7/2 etc. excited states to the metastable 4I13/2 state, and their pumping mechanists is aecomphshed by a stepwise four-photon absorption. Some emission hnes in this wavelength region are attributed to the three-wave sum-frequency process of 1313 and 1530nm (corresponds to 4I13/2 -4I15/2). The intense green emission hnes at 525 and 540 nm are also observed in the Er3+-doped fiber. In the Er3+/Yb3+-doped fiber the blue and green lines are very weak compared with those in the Er3+-doped fiber.

POWDER NEUTRON DIFFRACTION STUDIES OF THE CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC AND MAGNETIC STRUCTURE OF Ho2Fe9Ga8 and Ho2Fe9Ga6AI2 CHENG DONG-FENG (成东风), GOU CHENG (勾成) Acta Physica Sinica (Overseas Edition), 1997, 6 (1):  24-27.  DOI: 10.1088/1004-423X/6/1/005 Abstract ( 1024 )   PDF (89KB) ( 360 )   The crystallographic and magnetic structures of Ho2Fe9Ga8 and Ho2Fe9Ga6AI2 were studied by powder neutron diffraction at room temperature. The atom fractional occupancies of Ga and Al and the magnetic moments of Ho and Fe were obtained by using Rietveld analysis program.

The results indicate that the stacking of hexagonal carbon layer in the discharged graphite is different from the ABAB stacking sequence in graphite, and that carboy nanotube is a kind of graphite-like micro-crystal with a low-dimensional structure.

PHASE TRANSITION IN A NONEQUILIBRIUM POTTS MODEL WITH COMPETING DYNAMICS: A MONTE-CARLO STUDY GUO WEN-AN (郭文安), YANG ZHAN-RU (杨展如) Acta Physica Sinica (Overseas Edition), 1997, 6 (1):  35-39.  DOI: 10.1088/1004-423X/6/1/007 Abstract ( 994 )   PDF (138KB) ( 362 )   The nonequilibrium steady state of three-state Potts model evolving under combined Glauber dynamics at temperature $\beta$-1 and Kawasaki dynamics at $\beta$′= 0 is studied by Monte-Carlo simulations. As the exchange rate p increases, the phase transition changes from second to first order. The critical exponents of second-order transition are independent of p, and the critical properties for different p belong to the same universality class.

ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE OF Hg0.8Pb0.2Ba2Ca2Cu3O8+$\delta$: THE ROLE OF Pb DOPING, OXYGEN DOPING AND HIGH PRESSURE Lü JING (吕劲), ZHANG LI-YUAN (章立源), HAO XUE-JUN (郝学军) Acta Physica Sinica (Overseas Edition), 1997, 6 (1):  40-51.  DOI: 10.1088/1004-423X/6/1/008 Abstract ( 998 )   PDF (383KB) ( 351 )   The effects of Pb doping, oxygen doping ($\delta$= 0.1,0.2,0.4 and 0.5) and high pressate (4, 8, 15 and 20GPa) on the electronic structure of Hg0.8Pb0.2Ba2Ca2Cu3O8+$\delta$ have been examined by the recursion method. Our calculations show that Pb doping only decreases the hole concentration slightly and oxygen doping increases the hole concentration monotonically and significantly as $\delta$ varies from 0 to 0.5, with each excess oxygen atom contributing about 1.7 holes to the CuO2 layers. The optimal $\delta$ is estimated to be around 0.4, The hole conceatration increases initially with pres-sure but decreases as P > 8GPa (i.e., dn/dP does change sign at ～ 8GPa). The suppressed Tc(P) by Pb substitution has to be described in the modified Neumeier's model.

STRUCTURE AND PHOTOELECTRIC PROPERTIES OF HYDROGENATED AMORPHOUS SILICON-GERMAN-IUM ALLOYS PRODUCED BY HIGH HYDROGEN DILUTION METHOD XU JUN (徐骏), CHEN KUN-JI (陈坤基), FENG DUAN (冯端), MIYAZAKI SEIICHI (宫崎诚一), HIROSE MASATAKA (广濑全孝) Acta Physica Sinica (Overseas Edition), 1997, 6 (1):  52-56.  DOI: 10.1088/1004-423X/6/1/009 Abstract ( 1100 )   PDF (142KB) ( 327 )   A series of hydrogenated amorphous silicon-germanium alloys have been fabricated by high hydrogen dilution method. The Ge content in the film increasea from 0.4 to 0.8 and the corresponding optical bandgap is in the range of 1.48-1.22eV. The photoconductivity is 3.6×10-6 S/cm and photosensitivity is as high as 7.3×103 at an optical bandgap of 1.48eV. The deterioration of photoelectric properties with increasing Ge content could be attributed to the decrease of the bonded hydrogen content and the inhomogeneous structure in the alloy network.

The results show that the ESR spectra of N-doped fallerene axe composed of two parts, a paramagnetic signal of N-center and a paramagnetic signal of C-center, For comparing with N-doped fullerene, we have also studied ESR spectra of C60 powder, C60 sublimed film and H-doped C60 film. For C60 powder and H-doped C60 film, their in situ ESR. measurements are carried out at various temperatures, and reasonable explanations are proposed.

The vibrations of species are given. They are 4A1g+ B1g+ 5Eg+ 7A2u + B2u+ 8Eu. The 4A1g, B1g and 5Eg modes are Ramma active, the 6A2u and 7Eu are infrared active. Phonon vibration characteristics of the samples are studied using Raman scattering and infrared absorption spectra. The experimental results show that the typical phonon vibrational modes appear mainly at 145, 320, 440, 578, 592 and 645cm-1, The intensities of the 145, 320, 440, 578 and 645 peaks decrease with increasing Ca content x and the position of 645 peak moves to higher wavenumber slightly. In this article, the phonan modes are assigned and their variation behavior with increasing Ca content x are discussed.
