Zhang Yi
2003, 52 (8): 1832-1836. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1832
Abstract +
The conservation theorem and the symmetries for systems of generalized classical mechanics are studied. In terms of the invariance of the ordinary differential equations under the infinitesimal transformations, this paper established the Li e symmetrical transformations of the systems in the high-dimensional extended ph ase space, which only depend on the canonical variables, and a new type of conse rvation laws are directly obtained from the Lie symmetries of the systems. Actua lly, the conservation laws are the generalization of a conservation theorem of H ojman to generalized classical mechanics. Finally, an example is given to illust rate the application of the results.

2003, 52 (8): 1837-1841. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1837
Abstract +
The perturbation method is applied to the multi-order exact solutions of nonline ar evolution equations. The exact solutions to the zeroth-order equation can be derived by Jacobi elliptic function expansion method, and then the first-order a nd the second-order equations can be rewritten as the homogeneous Lam equa tion and inhomogeneous Lam equation, respectively. They can be solved by using Lam functions and the Jacobi elliptic function expansion method. Thus, the mu lti-order solutions are obtained to the nonlinear evolution equations.

Abstract +
Applying the perturbation method, the nonlinear evolution equations are expanded as multi-order approximate equations. And based on Lam equation and Lam function, these multi-order approximate equations can be solved by Jacobi elliptic function expansion method, where multi-order exact solutions of nonlinear evol ution equations are derived. Then the invariants of the multi-order exact soluti ons are found among different nonlinear evolution equations.

Xu Gui-Qiong, Li Zhi-Bin
2003, 52 (8): 1848-1857. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1848
Abstract +
The homogeneous balance method for constructing solitary wave solutions and soliton solutions is further developed on obtaining quasi-solution by using step-by- step principle.The main advantage of the extended approach is to avoid the probl em of “intermediate expression swell”.The effectiveness of the method is demon strated by application to the generalized Boussinesq equation and the bidirectio nal Kaup-Kupershmidt equation.The one-soliton,two-soliton and three-soliton solutions with multipe collisions are derived for these two equations with the assistance of Maple.

Abstract +
The behaviour of an electron between two quantum wells, is studied by exact solution of a time-dependent Schrdinger equation. The time-dependent electron occupation-probability is obtained analytically as a function of the energy difference between the two wells, coupling constant and driving frequency. The condit ion that electron can be trapped in a single quantum well is obtained.
Study of the crystallization kinetics of Zr60Al15Ni2 5 bulk glassy alloy
Yan Zhi-Jie, Li Jin-Fu, Wang Hong-Hua, Zhou Yao-He
2003, 52 (8): 1867-1870. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1867
Abstract +
This paper reports the investigation on the crystallization kinetics of Zr6 0 Al15Ni25 bulk glassy alloy under isothermal annealin g by differential scanning calorimetry. The results show that the incubation time is very smal l even at a low annealing temperature (743 K) and the exothermic peak width, ref lecting the time for the actual crystallization process, increases greatly when annealing temperature decreases. This suggests a growth-controlled crystallizati on process. The Avrami exponents indicate that the crystallization mechanism cha nges at different annealing temperatures. The change of the crystallization mech anism is attributed to the great change of the mobility of atoms at different te mperatures.

Cai Jue-Ping, Li Zan, Song Wen-Tao
2003, 52 (8): 1871-1876. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1871
Abstract +
In this paper, the conventional pseudo-random sequence linear complexity is disc ussed, and a new criterion is proposed, based on the approximate entropy. It is proved that the criterion is able to distinguish different complex chaos and cha otic pseudo-random sequences with short observed sequence. Simulations indicate that the method is effective, and the corresponding theories are proved right.

Luo Xiang-Dong, Zheng Ren-Rong, Zhu Shun-Quan
2003, 52 (8): 1891-1894. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1891
Abstract +
With the model of an axially symmetric rotor plus two quasi-particles, the signature inversion (SI) in two odd-odd nuclei 102Rh and 98Rh in the mass region A=100 is studied. The calculated result shows that the possible SI mechanism, which has been confirmed by the calculation of odd-od d nuclei in the A=160 and A=80 regions (i e, the competition between the n-p interaction and the coriolis force in low K space) is also appropriate for odd-odd nuclei in the A=100 region. This seems to indicate that there mi ght be a universal mechanism of SI in odd-odd nuclei for different mass regions.

Abstract +
The experimental results for H+5 cluster ions are reported . The formation an d dissociation of H+5 cluster ions were discussed. Accord ing to theory, sta ble H+n cluster ions may be formed by H+3 core with one or more H 2 molecule. On the other hand, there exist conditions for the reactio n of H+3 and H2 in a rf ion source. In the experiments, the ion beam was accelera ted by van de Graff and selected by 90° analysis magnet in the condition of cur rent for mass number 5, and then diffracted by 20° analysis magnet, the energy spectrum of ion beam was obtained. From the spectrum, it is found that H+5 cluster ions may be formed from the ion-molecular interaction between H+3 ion and H2 neutral molecule in rf ion source and that there may exist H3 and H4 neutral clusters among the products of H+5 c luster ions.

Zhou Ming, Fang Jia-Yuan, Huang Chun-Jia
2003, 52 (8): 1916-1919. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1916
Abstract +
The Hamiltonian operator of a system of single-mode light field interacting with Bose-Einstein condensate(BEC) of two-level atoms is suggested within the rotati ng-wave approximation. The influence of the interaction between atoms in the BEC on the quadrature squeezing properties of single-mode squeezed light interactin g with atomic BEC is studied under Bogoliubov approximation. The results show th at the fluctuations of two quadrature components of light evolve periodically in a cosine law and their squeezing properties are determined mainly by the initia l squeeze factor and squeeze direction angle of light, and that the interaction between atoms in BEC changes the amplitude and period of fluctuation of light.
The production and elimination of the spatial singularity for ultrashort chirp ed pulse-beam propagation in free space
Yang Zhen-Jun, Hu Wei, Fu Xi-Quan, Lu Da-Quan, Zheng Yi-Zhou
2003, 52 (8): 1920-1924. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1920
Abstract +
We study the propagation of ultrashort chirped pulsed beams in free space. We find that the slowly-varying envelope approximation and complex amplitude envelope are not suitable for ultrashort chirped pulsed beams anymore, because they lead to the spatial singularity that is inconsistent with the physical significanc e of the beam propagation. And the chirp influences the spatial singularity mor e seriously than the width of the pulsed beam does. The spatial singularity can be eliminated by using the complex analytical signal theory. In this paper, we g ive the simulations of spatial singularity about ultrashort chirped pulsed Gauss ian beams with a series of parameters, and the conditions that lead to the spati al singularity etc. We think that the broad spectrum of the ultrashort pulsed be am is the original reason for the spatial singularity.

Ni Pei-Gen, Ma Bo-Qin, Cheng Bing-Ying, Zhang Dao-Zhong
2003, 52 (8): 1925-1928. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1925
Abstract +
A two-dimensional periodically poled lithium niobate crystal with a 13.64 μm period was fabricated. The inverted duty cycle was about 23%. The second harmonic output for the second-order quasi-phase-matching (QPM) against the input was measured. The maximum second harmonic internal conversion efficiency was higher than 40%. All results implied that the second-order QPM could be used to obtain high-frequency conversion efficiency. Compared with the first-order QPM, the second-order QPM can reduce the requirement for the poling technique and the mask fabrication.

Abstract +
The two-photon absorption (TPA) property and optical power limiting behaviour of a novel double-conjugated segment organic molecule have been investigated, and its TPA spectrum and optical power limiting curve have been experimentally obtai ned. Strong TPA and broadband optical power limiting properties from 700 nm to 1 100 nm in the near infrared region have been demonstrated in the tetrahydrofuran (THF) solution with 1×10-2mol/L concentration. It has three peaks o f TPA cross section at 730,850 and 980 nm. The maximum TPA cross section is σ′ 2=25.9×10-47cm4·s·photon-1 at 850nm, which is about 1-2 orders of magnitude larger than usual organic molecules.

Abstract +
This paper describes the effect of spinning single-mode fibres on the second-order polarization mode dispersion(PMD). We find theoretically that spinning fibr es can reduce the first-order PMD, but it may be harmful to the second-order PMD , which is an important problem to the fibre communication system over 10 Gb/s.

Deng Li, Liao Rui, Liu Ye-Xin, Shou Qian, Wen Jin-Hui, Lin Wei-Zhu
2003, 52 (8): 1938-1942. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1938
Abstract +
The amplitudes and phases of femtosecond pulses generated from a home-made KLM Ti: Sapphire laser are diagnosed by using the technique of second-harmonic generation frequency-resolved optical gating. The results indicate that the profiles of the pulses are sech2 shapes and the phases are approximately cub ic dependent of the time. The chirped pulses of 17 fs(FWHM) are compressed to near Fourier transform limited pulses of 8.5 fs with a double-prism system to compensate for the second-order dispersion.

Abstract +
In this paper, by transforming the isotropy elastodynamic equations into the first-order hyperbolic ones, we have improved the O(2,4) finite difference time domain method with the staggered grid. Using the approach in this paper, we calculated the band gap in two-dimensional phononic crystals. The calculated and measured results match well.
On the absence of some resonance modes in acoustic scattering by spherical scatt erers in isotropic elastic media
Wu Rui-Xin, Wang Yao-Jun
2003, 52 (8): 1948-1953. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1948
Abstract +
Resonance scattering by iron spheres in plaxiglass matrix is investigated numer ically. Based on the analysis of the zero and singular points of the scattered l ongitudinal and transverse wave coefficients, the absence of some resonance mode s is found to appear only in the scattered longitudinal wave modes of the lowest order. The absence of some resonance modes results from the fact that the zero points of the numerator and denominator of scattered longitudinal wave coefficie nts are located at the same positions in the complex frequency plane.
Acoustic head wave on the borehole wall in a porous formation and the causes for its accompanying electromagnetic field
Hu Heng-Shan
2003, 52 (8): 1954-1959. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1954
Abstract +
To understand the propagation mechanism of the acoustic head wave and its accompanying electromagnetic field during logging in a porous formation, we studied the displacement characteristics of the wave. Calculations by both the fast compre ssional branch-cut-integral and the real-wavenumber-integral methods show that the head wave travels along the borehole wall with the fast compressional wave velocity, but it differs from a plane compressional wave in two aspects. First, the head wave causes radial displacement as well as axial displacement. Second, it is composed of the gradients of the fast and slow compressional potentials and the rotation of the shear potential. The gradient of the slow compressional potential constitutes the dominating part of the fluid filtration. It is the slow compressional potential that induces electric field that accompanies the acousti c head wave during acousto-electric well logging. And it is the shear potential that induces magnetic field that accompanies the acoustic head wave.

Zhu Bo, Cai Xun, Wang Cheng-Guo, Cai Hua-Su
2003, 52 (8): 1960-1964. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1960
Abstract +
The corelation between acoustic emission characteristics and their fracture toughness has been investigated in this paper based on the study of high-strength al uminum alloy cracking process by using advanced acoustic emission experiment sys tem and smooth tensile specimens as well as DCB specimens with premade cracks. E xperimental results showed that the specimens emitted strong signals with an amp litude above 35 dB when a stable crack extension started at K1C. Stro nger and more complicated acoustic emission signals were found during unstable crack extension, and the cumulative energy of acoustic emission events were found to b e linearly related with the macroscopic fracture energy.

He Feng, Yu Wei, Lu Pei-Xiang
2003, 52 (8): 1965-1969. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1965
Abstract +
The electron density profile is solved self-consistently in circularly polarized femtosecond laser vertically interacting with a linear plasma. The result show s that a set of electron islands and cavities are produced in the relativistic p lasma. The laser energy is partially trapped in these cavities due to strong sta tic electric fields caused by the separation of electrons and ions. The dependen ce of the trapped static electric energy on the laser intensity is also discusse d.

Abstract +
The space-time profile of impurities has been measured with a multichannel visible spectroscopic detect system and UV rotation-mirror system in the HT-6M tokamak. An ideal impurity transport code has been used to simulate impurities (carbon and oxygen) behaviour during the OH discharge. The profiles of impuritie s diffusion and convection coefficient, impurities ion densities in different io nized state, loss power density and effective charge number have been derived. T he impurity behaviour during low-hybrid current drive has also been analyzed, th e results show that the confinement of particles, impurities and energy has been improved, and emission power and effective charge number have been reduced.
Threshold analysis for the limit cycle and chaotic oscillation of the radiation field in a traveling wave tube amplifier
Hao Jian-Hong, Ding Wu, Zhang Zhi-Chou
2003, 52 (8): 1979-1983. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1979
Abstract +
In terms of the coupled equations of the radiation field and motion of the electron in a traveling wave tube amplifier, the threshold current at which the limit cycle or chaotic oscillation of the radiation field starts occurring is obtained. The result of numerical calculation shows that the nonlinear unsteady states may appear in a certain range of the parameters for the radiation field. The eff ect of the detuning on the threshold is relatively strong when the interaction r egion is longer. The relations of the output power with the three parameters (de tuning, current and interaction length) become chaotic when the device operates in the highly nonlinear regime, and the higher output power can be obtained if t he parameters are controlled suitably.

Calculation of surface energy of Cu crystal with modified embedded-atom method
Zhang Jian-Min, Xu Ke-Wei, Ma Fei
2003, 52 (8): 1993-1999. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.1993
Abstract +
The surface energies on 12 different planes of Cu crystal have been calculated with modified embedded-atom method. The results show that the lowest surface ener gy, as predicted, corresponds to the close-packed plane (111) of face-centered c ubic (FCC) structure. The surface energies on other planes show a tendency to in crease with increasing angle between the planes and (111) plane. So the relative values in surface energy for other planes could be estimated by their geometric relationship. The geometric structure factors and the methods applied to determ ine them could be used directly for surface energy and other property calculatio ns in the materials with FCC structure. The (111) texture observed extensively i n Cu, Ag and other FCC films results from the surface energy minimization.

2003, 52 (8): 2000-2004. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.2000
Abstract +
The effect of nitrogen on the oxygen precipitation during high-temperature annea ling in Czochralski silicon was investigated. After annealing under different co nditions, the variation of oxygen precipitation and the bulk microdefects(BMDs) density with annealing time at high temperatures was measured, and transmission electronic microscope was used to observe the microstructure of oxygen precipita tes. It was found that nitrogen doping strongly enhanced oxygen precipitation du ring high-temperature annealing; furthermore, the densities of BMDs in the annea led NCZ samples were higher than those in the corresponding CZ ones. Therefore, it is considered that the nitrogen can react with vacancy and oxygen to form N-V -O complexes to enhance the nucleation of oxygen precipitates, and the oxygen pr ecipitates are plates with strong inner stress.

This article describes a method which combines the static pressure experiment,dynamic experiment and theoretical calculation to obtain the parameters in the SCG constitutive model for tungsten alloy under high pressures. By using the constitutive model we obtained in numerical simulation that the calculated profiles of particle velocity are in accordance with the experimental results. We also conducted some other simulations by using different constitutive models and compared them with experimental results. The results show that the constitutive model we obtained was the best.

Du Qi-Zhen, Yang Hui-Zhu
2003, 52 (8): 2010-2014. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.2010
Abstract +
With the importance of the fractured strata in the oil exploration, researchers have paid more attention to the wave propagation in viscoelastic and anisotropic media. Provided the rocks are weakly viscoelastic, the viscoelastic problems can be solved as a series of elastic problems by using the time increment method. At each step we determine the viscoelastic deformations and the corresponding viscoelastic loads, which are added to the load vectors for the next step. On this basis, the finite-element recursive formulae of viscoelastic and azimuthally anisotropic media are established. The numerical simulations show the characteristics of wavefields in the viscoelastic and azimuthally anisotropic media.

2003, 52 (8): 2015-2019. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.2015
Abstract +
The thermal conductivity of MgB2 polycrystalline sample in the mixed state has been investigated as a function of magnetic field (0-7 T) and temperature (5-45 K). The thermal conductivity increased rapidly in low magnetic fields, and became saturation in higher fields. This behaviour correlates with the two-gap electronic structure of MgB2. Analysis indicates that the remarkable en hancement of thermal conductivity of MgB2 polycrystalline sample in the mixed state cannot be completely attributed to the electronic contribution.
Dynamic behaviours of an exciton confined in coupled quantum dots driven by an a lternating current electrical field
Liu Cheng-Shi, Ma Ben-Kun, Wang Li-Min
2003, 52 (8): 2020-2026. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.2020
Abstract +
With a two-site Hubbard model and Floquet theorem, we investigate the dynamic behaviour of an exciton confined in a coupled double-quantum-dot system driven by an alternating current(AC) electrical field. The calculation shows that the quasi-energy levels versus the amplitude of the external field undergo a series o f exact-crossing and avoid-crossing. Generally, the initially localized state can remain forever at the first exact-crossing point of two ground quasi-energy levels. Increasing the interaction of the electron and hole, the degree of dynamical localization is enhanced. At the second exact-crossing point of ground quasi-energy levels, this kind of dynamical localization is decayed. At the point of avoid-crossing and offset from the exact-crossing, the dynamical localiz ation ceases to maintain. This demonstrates the possibility to control the excit on states on extremely short time scales using the appropriate AC field with the adjustable amplitude and frequency, which may be useful for quantum information processing.

Liu Cheng-Shi, Ma Ben-Kun
2003, 52 (8): 2027-2032. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.2027
Abstract +
With the three-site Hubbard model and Floquet theorem, we investigate the dynamic behaviours of an exciton confined in three-quantum-dots molecules driven by an alternating current electrical field. The calculations show that the initia l localized state is hold up for a certain value of strength and frequency of th e alternating current field. In order to understand the dynamical property, we a pply the perturbation theory to solve the Floquet function and obtain the analyt ical solution of quasi-energy. We find that the dynamical localization can be bu ilt at the crossing point of quasi-energies for strong and moderate fields.

Nanoelectromechanics in a quantum wire irradiated by a THz electromagnetic field
Yang Mou, Zhou Guang-Hui, Xiao Xian-Bo
2003, 52 (8): 2037-2040. doi: 10.7498/aps.52.2037
Abstract +
We study the nanoelectromechanics in a quantum wire connecting two reservoirs irradiated under an external terahertz (THz) electromagnetic field. Using the free-electron model at ballistic regime we calculated the two-level electron wavefunction and the Rabi oscillation of electron probability between the two levels. Using a statistical operator we calculated the nanoelectronic force in the wire. The result consists of two terms, which corresponds to the case with or without external field. The term without field parameter is consistent with the existing experimental observation and theoretical calculation, and the other term from the external field can be explained by the quantum coherent theory.

Abstract +
The ideal single-electron transistor has a folding I-V characteristic. Multi-threshold periodic transmitting function can be achieved by using a complementary single-electron transistor structure, which can be used to simplify the analog-to-digital(A/D) converter. A novel 3-bit A/D converter by using the complementary single-electron transistor structure has many advantages including a simple structure, high speed and low power.

Abstract +
Based on the physical mechanism of gate oxide TDDB, a percolation model for gate oxide degradation was brought forward, in which the occurrence and build up of deep energy-level defects, such as E′ center and oxygen vacancy were considered to be the right cause of oxide breakdown. It was pointed out that, during TDDB the stressed defects were produced in the oxide, which form local states in oxide forbidden gap. And the volume of these local states is directly proportional to the external electric field, especially when the field strength is high enough. With the by-pass of stressing time, the concentration of defects in the oxide grew continually. As an effect, the distance between neighboring local states become shorter. So, hopping or tunneling probabilities of electrons between these local states increase swiftly. As a result, a conduction path will form when the distance between neighboring local states reaches a critical value. At the same time, in terms of energy band theory, an extended energy level will form in the oxide forbidden gap. Accompanied by a rapid increase of SILC, the gate oxide undergoes breakdown.

Abstract +
MnZn-ferrite/SiO2 particle composites are prepared by mechanical ball ing. We study the relations of effective permeability μ, specific magnetization σ and coercivity Hc with the MnZn-ferrite concentration. The results indicate that an abrupt change emerges in effective permeability when the volume percentage of MnZn-ferrite particles is near V=98%, which means that a magnetic percolation phenomenon occurs in the system. Meanwhile, it is found that the coercivity Hc exhibits an anomalous behaviour that depends strongly on the microstructure of the composite. Above the percolation threshold, the variation of coercivity can be mostly explained in terms of dipolar interaction between magnetic particles, whereas below the percolation threshold, the decrement of Hc is ascribed dominantly to increasing specific magnetization σ. At the same time, we determine the measured percolation threshold Vc=97. 9%, which can be derived from the maximum of d2μ/dV2.

Abstract +
We have previously demonstrated the presence of the defects complex [2(La3 + Pb)·-V″Pb]in La-doped lead tungs tate (PWO). That earl ier experimental technique was supplemented with x-ray photoelectron, visible ab sorption and infrared absorption spectroscopies in the present investigation on PWO crystals doped with 3+, 4+ or 5+ cations, or co-doped with 3+ and 5+ impurit ies. Useful information has been deduced on dopant lattice sites, dipolar defect s complexes, their relation with materials properties, and their transformation during annealing. Some of the deductions have also been corroborated with comput er simulation. The present work argues against the conception that impedance spe ctroscopy cannot provide definite conclusions on defect structures in ionic soli ds.

Abstract +
Piezoelectricity of non-polar space charge electret, porous PTFE film with unidi rectional mechanical stretch was studied. Piezoelectricity of double-layer stack s of porous PTFE and non-porous polymer films (such as PTFE, PI, FEP and PCTFE) with space charge layer were investigated. The results of preliminary investigat ion pointed out that under the optimal poling conditions, piezoelectric coeffici ent d33 of porous PTFE with external electrode was up to 186 pC/N whi c h is close to the value of ferroelectric ceramics PZT, and was about one order o f magnitude that of ferroelectric polymer PVDF. Outstanding thermal stability of piezoelectricity for soft PTFE porous film was reported. Influences of poling parameters such as poling time, corona electrical field and charging temperature etc, as well as charge density stored in the material on piezoelectricity were investigated. The influences of charging parameters on piezoelectricity were also explained by means of charge dynamic character and the material property.

Abstract +
An analytical study on transmitted intensity perturbance of air-gaped Glan-type polarizing prisms with varying rotation angle is given. The perturbance strongly affects the quality of transmitted polarizing light. Our study shows that the t ransmitted intensity sensitively relies on the incident angle. The minute random variation of the incident angle around the structure angle of air-gaped Glan-ty pe polarizing prism gives rise to the perturbance found in the experiment. The i nfluence of the variation of temperature on the disturbance is discussed. Effect ive ways for reducing the disturbance are presented.

Abstract +
A new self-assembled quantum dots system where InGaAs dots are formed on InAlAs wetting layer and embedded in GaAs matrix has been fabricated. The photolumines cence linewidth increases with increasing temperature, which is very different from normal In(Ga)As/GaAs quantum dots. The results are attributed to a higher e nergy of the wetting layer which breaks the carrier transfer channel between dot s and keeps the dots more isolated from each other.

Abstract +
The Hawking radiation of Dirac particles on event horizon of nonuniformly rectilinearly accelerating black hole with electric and magnetic charge is studied in this paper. First, we construct the symmetrized null tetrad from which the spin coefficients and Dirac equation are derived. Next, by proposing a generalized tortoise coordinate transformation, the Dirac equation is decoupled successfully near the event horizon surface. Finally, following the method of Damour and Ruffini, the temperature on the horizon surface and the thermal spectrum formula of Dirac particles are obtained. The result is also discussed.

Abstract +
Using the statistical entropy of the Dirac field of static spherically symmetric black hole, the Stefan-Boltzmann's law of static spherically symmetric black ho les is calculated, and we obtain a conclusion that the radiant emittance of a bl ack hole is proportionate to quartic power of temperature of the event horizon o f the black hole. It is found that the value of Stefan-Boltzmann constant in curved space-time is different from that in Euclidean space-time, and the constant has different value in different space-time.
