However,it evolves a little faster and is destroyed in a shorter time when ion dynamics is considered. In strongly magnetized plasma(Ωe>ωpe),the electron hole is broken due to the lower hybrid waves, and its evolution is much faster.展开更多
In order to suppress the electron leakage to p-type region of near-ultraviolet GaN/In_xGa_（1-x ）N/GaN multiple-quantumwell（MQW） laser diode（LD）, the Al composition of inserted p-type AlxGa_（1-x）N electron bloc...In order to suppress the electron leakage to p-type region of near-ultraviolet GaN/In_xGa_（1-x ）N/GaN multiple-quantumwell（MQW） laser diode（LD）, the Al composition of inserted p-type AlxGa_（1-x）N electron blocking layer（EBL） is optimized in an effective way, but which could only partially enhance the performance of LD. Here, due to the relatively shallow GaN/In_（0.04）Ga_（0.96）N/GaN quantum well, the hole leakage to n-type region is considered in the ultraviolet LD. To reduce the hole leakage, a 10-nm n-type Al_xGa_（1-x）N hole blocking layer（HBL） is inserted between n-type waveguide and the first quantum barrier, and the effect of Al composition of Al_xGa_（1-x）N HBL on LD performance is studied. Numerical simulations by the LASTIP reveal that when an appropriate Al composition of Al_xGa_（1-x）N HBL is chosen, both electron leakage and hole leakage can be reduced dramatically, leading to a lower threshold current and higher output power of LD.展开更多

Particle-in-cell(PIC) simulations have demonstrated that the electron bi-stream instability induces several electron holes during its nonlinear evolution. However, how the unipolar structure of the parallel cut of the perpendicular electric field formed in these electron holes is still an unsolved problem,especially in a strongly magnetized plasma(Ω_e >ω_(pe), where Ω_e is defined as electron gyrofrequency and ω_(pe) is defined as plasma frequency, respectively). In this paper, with two-dimensional(2D) electrostatic PIC simulations, the evolution of the electron two-stream instability with a finite width in strongly magnetized plasma is investigated. Initially, those conditions lead to monochromatic electrostatic waves, and these waves coalesce with each other during their nonlinear evolution. At last, a solitary electrostatic structure is formed. In such an electron hole, a bipolar structure is formed in the parallel cut. of parallel electric field, while a unipolar structure presents in the parallel cut of perpendicular electric field.展开更多

The c...Si-rich silicon nitride films are prepared by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition method, followed by thermal annealing to form the Si nanocrystals（Si-NCs） embedded in Si Nx floating gate MOS structures. The capacitance–voltage（C–V）, current–voltage（I–V）, and admittance–voltage（G–V） measurements are used to investigate the charging characteristics. It is found that the maximum flat band voltage shift（△VFB） due to full charged holes（～ 6.2 V） is much larger than that due to full charged electrons（～ 1 V）. The charging displacement current peaks of electrons and holes can be also observed by the I–V measurements, respectively. From the G–V measurements we find that the hole injection is influenced by the oxide hole traps which are located near the Si O2/Si-substrate interface. Combining the results of C–V and G–V measurements, we find that the hole charging of the Si-NCs occurs via a two-step tunneling mechanism. The evolution of G–V peak originated from oxide traps exhibits the process of hole injection into these defects and transferring to the Si-NCs.展开更多
The x-ray energies and transition rates associated with single and double electron radiative transitions from the double K hole state 2s2p to the 1s2s and 1s^2 configurations of 11 selected He-like ions(10 ≤ Z ≤ 47)...The x-ray energies and transition rates associated with single and double electron radiative transitions from the double K hole state 2s2p to the 1s2s and 1s^2 configurations of 11 selected He-like ions(10 ≤ Z ≤ 47) are calculated using the fully relativistic multi-configuration Dirac–Fock method(MCDF). An appropriate electron correlation model is constructed with the aid of the active space method, which allows the electron correlation effects to be studied efficiently. The contributions of the electron correlation and the Breit interaction to the transition properties are analyzed in detail. It is found that the two-electron one-photon(TEOP) transition is correlation sensitive. The Breit interaction and electron correlation both contribute significantly to the radiative transition properties of the double K hole state of the He-like ions. Good agreement between the present calculation and previous work is achieved. The calculated data will be helpful to future investigations on double K hole decay processes of He-like ions.展开更多

The electron transfer reaction between ferro/ferricyanide in aqueous phase (W) and ferrocene in 1, 2-dichloroethane (O) phase was studied as a test experiment. The results showed that the diffusion coefficient obtained from the micro-hole electrode was consistent with that obtained at macro-interface. Due to its simplicity and the very small IR drop it will be a useful tool for the study of ITIES systems.展开更多
