The developed substrate consists of an ultra thin glass and TAC (triacethyl cellulose) film. An ultra thin glass and TAC film were joined with TEOS-DAC (TEOS: tetraethyl orthosilicate, DAC: diacethy cellulose) adhesive resin synthesized by sol-gel method by means of thermo-compression bonding. This substrate has high transparency in visible-light region (90%), high flexibility (torsion strength and bending strength) and high gas barrier characteristics due to an ultra thin glass. The newly-developed substrate is superior to the substrates fabricated with commercially available adhesive resin in the same way in characteristics of heat resistance, transparency and flexibility.展开更多

Two characteristic bands were revealed before irradiation, and they were attributed to silicon dangling bond（E＇-center） and Fe^3＋species,respectively. The existence of Fe3＋was confirmed by electron paramagnetic resonance（EPR） measurements. After irradiation, the absorption spectra revealed irradiation-induced changes, while the content of E＇-center did not change in the deep ultraviolet（DUV） region. The slightly reduced OA spectra at 4.9 eV was supposed to transform Fe3＋species to Fe^2＋species and this transformation leads to the appearance of 4.3 eV OA band. By calculating intensity variation, the transformation of Fe was estimated to be about 5% and the optical absorption cross section of Fe2＋species is calculated to be 2.2 times larger than that of Fe^3＋species. Peroxy linkage（POL, ≡Si–O–O–Si≡）, which results in a 3.7 eV OA band, is speculated not to be from Si–O bond break but from Si–O–B bond, Si–O–Al bond, or Si–O–Na bond break. The co-presence defect with POL is probably responsible for 2.9-eV OA band.展开更多

Depth profile analyses are also performed on the irradiated glass at 109 Gy. A sodium-depleted layer with a thickness of a few tens of nanometers and the corresponding increase of network polymerization on the top surface are observed after electron bombardment, while the polymerization in the subsurface region has a negligible variation with the irradiation dose. Moreover, the formation of molecular oxygen after electron irradiation is evidenced, which is mainly aggregated in the first two-micron-thick irradiated glass surface. These modifications are correlated to the network relaxation process as a consequence of the diffusion and desorption of sodium species during electron irradiation.展开更多

Three samples with varying concentrations of alkali ions have been prepared. The spin Harniltonian parameters obtained from room temperature EPR spectra are： gli=2.437, 9⊥=2.096, A‖=117×10-4 cm-1, A⊥=26×10-4 cm-1 for LiNaCdP1, g‖=2.441, g⊥=2.088, A‖=121×10-4 cm-1, A⊥=25×10-4 cm-1 for LiNaCdP2and g‖=2.433,g⊥=2.096, A‖=125×10 4cm-1, A⊥=32×10-4cm-1 for LiNaCdP3. TheseEPR results indicate that the dopant Cu2＋ ion enters the glass matrix into a tetragonally elongated octahedral site. The bonding parameters evaluated by correlating optical and EPR data suggest that bonding between the central metal ion and ligands is partially covalent. The mixed alkali effect in cadmium phosphate glasses was reported.展开更多

At a primary electron beam energy of 25 keV, the intrinsic SEE yields measured at very low injection dose are 0.54, 0.29 and 0.35, respectively for lead silica, Suprasil and Infrasil silica glass. During the first e-beam irradiation at a high injection current density, the SEE yields of lead silica and Suprasil increase continuously and slowly from their initial values to a steady state. At the steady state, the SEE yields of lead silica and Suprasil are 0.94 and 0.93, respectively. In Infrasil, several charging and discharging processes are observed during the experiment. This shows that Infrasil does not reach its steady state. Two hours later, all samples are irradiated again in the same place as the first irradiation at a low current density and low dose. The SEE yields of lead silica, Suprasil and Infrasil are 0.69, 0.76 and 0.55, respectively. Twenty hours later, the values are 0.62, 0.64 and 0.33, respectively, for lead silica, Suprasil and Infrasil. These results show that Infrasil has poor charging stability. Comparatively, the charging stability of lead silica is better, and Suprasil has the best characteristics.展开更多

It was remarkable that the electronic excitation temperature （Text） did not vary monotonically with the discharge current, but demonstrated a peak at a certain position. In a mixture of oxygen and argon （80% oxygen）, the maximum Texc reached about 6300 K at an average current of 600 pA. Both the positive ions accumulation in the discharge region and the increase of the local temperature around the streamer channel caused by Joule heating are considered to be the main reasons for the variations of Texc.展开更多

Moreover, visualized at the nanoscale, Be distribution is confirmed to be only present in the matrix using scanning transmission electron microscopy-electron energy loss spectroscopy （STEM-EELS）. Based on these findings, it has been obtained that the accurate chemical compositions are Wi28.3Zr19.7Cu8V6.4Be37.6 （mole fraction, %） for glass matrix and Wi62.nZr18.aCu2.6V16.6 （mole fraction, %） for the dendritic phases, and the volume fractions are 38.5% and 61.5%, respectively. It is believed that the results are of particular importance for the designing of Be-containing MGMCs.展开更多
