Silicon samples are implanted with 550keV protons at dosages from 1 × 10^13 to 5 × 10^14 cm^-2. Subsequently, platinum diffusion in silicon is performed at 700 or 750℃ for 15 or 30min,respectively. Then the in-diffused platinum into damaged regions of the proton-implanted silicon is investigated by use of deep-level transient spectroscopy (DLTS). Finally, for all of the LPLC samples, the distribution of the in-diffused substitutional platinum agrees well with the damage distribution resulting from the low-dosage proton implantation. Also, the diodes show a very low leakage current even at elevated temperatures while keeping the major advantages of ion irradiation devices, including low turn-off loss and soft recovery.展开更多

The results show that high density defects in the HRTEM images disappear completely when these images are exposed under the electron beam for some duration of time. At the same time, lattice defects are never observed within no-defect areas even when the beam-exposure increases to the degree that holes appear in the areas. Therefore, it is confirmed that the planar defects observed in the HPT alloys mainly result from the significant plastic deformation and are not due to the radiation effect during HRTEM observation.展开更多

The results showed that carbon nanotubes had no obvious structural damages but only shell bending under 100 keV electron beam irradiation. However, when the electron energy increased to 200 keV, the nanotubes were damaged and amorphization, pits and gaps were detected. Furthermore, generating of carbon onions and welding between two MWCNTs occurred under 200 keV electron irradiation. It was easy to destroy the MWCNTs as the electron beams exceeded the displacement threshold energy that was calculated to be 83-110 keV. Conversely, the energy of electron beams below the threshold energy was not able to damage the tubes. The damage mechanism is sputtering and atom displacement.展开更多

Achenes of A. ordosica germinate in light but poorly in dark and light is the limiting factor regulating the achene germination in sand depth. Achenes germinate in spring or autumn with an optimal temperature of 20 ℃. Achene mucilage can absorb large amounts of water and has important ecological function. Salt concentrations and sand moisture may regulate achene germination in sand. A. ordosica, A. sphaerocephala Krasch. and A. monosperma Delile. from different climates have similar responses to light, the underground location of achene, and sand moisture. Percentage of seedling emergence from different levels of sand depth is depends on the specific, temperature and intensity of light penetrating through the sand depths, as well as on sand moisture. The desert sand habitat seems to have had a dominant influence on the evolution of the germination strategies of these 3 Artemisia species.展开更多

It is found that N, N′ dimethyl perylene 3,4:9, 10 bis (dicarboximide) and perylene 3,4:9,10 tetracarboxylic acid bisbenzimidazole show excellent photoconductivities, their charge acceptance reaches 700 V and 485 V, and the photosensitivity is 45 lx·s and 10 lx·s with dark decays 70 and 60 V/s respectively. The introduction of chlorine atoms can improve their photoelectric properties. SEM analyses also show that the dispersion of pigment in OPC could affect its photosensitivity.展开更多

[Method] The dry seeds were irradiated by '2(36. heavy ion beams with absorbed doses: 0, 40, 80, 120, 160 and 200 Gy, respectively. Then, the seed germination potential, survival rate, antioxidant enzyme activities and lipid peroxidation of sweet sorghum were measured. [Result] Heavy-ion beams irradiation exhibited different influence on germination potential and survival rates. Germination rate showed a downward trend, but the corresponding survival curve of seedlings was saddle-shaped. The activities of SOD, POD, CAT and ASA- POD changed in different trends as well. The MDA content rose toward increasing irradiation dose, suggesting that high dose of heavy-ion beams irradiation enhanced the damage to membrane of sweet sorghum seedlings. [Conclusion] After being irra- diated, germination potential and survival rates of sweet sorghum were decreased, and antioxidant enzymes activity changed greatly. This study laid the basis for fur- ther work on breeding and improvement of sweet sorghum irradiated by ,^(12)C^(6+) heavy ion beams.展开更多
