ZHANG HONG-XUAN, ZHU YI-SHENG, NIU JIN-HAI, TONG SHAN-BAO
2000, 49 (8): 1416-1422. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1416
Abstract +
Based on surrogate data hypothesis testing, this paper presented an improved nonlinear test algorithm for deterministic chaotic signals, which is applied to the analysis of abnormal rhythm electrocardiosignals. It is pointed out that ventricular tachycardia(VT) and ventricular fibrillation(VF) are complex nonlinear chaotic signals, which was proved different from stochastic signal. On the basis of qualitative signal analysis and nonlinear dynamics, the authors forwarded a new definition of complexity rate and proposed relative detection methods for the quantitative analysis of VT and VF. The results indicated that the qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis of VT and VF can give objective and creditable results.

DUAN BIN, BAI ZAI-QIAO, GU YAN
2000, 49 (8): 1428-1434. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1428
Abstract +
We have studied the classical theory of (e,2e) collision between electron and atoms or ions based on three kinds of one-dimensional models, i.e., the s-wave model, the collinear e-Ze- and Ze-e- models. We find numerically the relation of ionization cross sections with increasing energy obey different threshold laws, i.e., the linear law, Wannier law and square root law. These results have been also discussed analytically.

LI SHU-PING, WANG REN-ZHI, ZHENG YONG-MEI, CAI SHU-HUI, HE GUO-MIN
2000, 49 (8): 1441-1446. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1441
Abstract +
We have extended the average-bond-energy method to the study of strained-layer heterojunction band offset. Through a careful study of the effect of hydrostatic strain and uniaxial strain on band offset parameter Emv, we find that the average band offset parameter Emv,av(Emv,av=Em-Ev,av) is largely kept unchanged under different strain conditions. So, in the calculation of strained-layer band offset parameter Emv, it is only required the unstrained band offset parameter Emv,0, a deformation parameter b and the experimental value of spin-orbit splitting Δ0 to calculate the value of strained-layer Emv by simple algebraic operation. Obviously, it will be very convenient to calculate the valence band offset of heterojunction. The simplifed calculation scheme has the characteristic of small calculation amount and the calculation reliability can be improved by using the experimental value.

LIU XIAO-JUN, CAO JUN-WEN, WANG JIN, ZHAO HONG-TAI, ZHAN MING-SHENG
2000, 49 (8): 1447-1452. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1447
Abstract +
The strontium atoms in ground states were excited to higher |M|=1 Rydberg states while the laser wavelength and the electric field strength are scanned simultaneously to keep the scaled-energy ε constant. Spectra were recorded for ε=-3.00, -2.50 and -1.88. The experimental Fourier transform recurrence spectra were compared with the hydrogenic closed-orbit calculation. The positions of the experimental recurrence peaks were well coincided with the theory, but the strengths of the peaks were strongly affected by the strontium core effect.

2000, 49 (8): 1457-1463. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1457
Abstract +
Often it is difficult to calculate the dipole moments of clusters of conducting particles imposed to uniform electric fields, because of the difficulty in handling the mutual coupling between the particles. Such mutual coupling generally causes the polarization of the particles to be dependent upon the structures and the sizes of the clusters. In this paper, an image dipole method is employed for the analysis of this effect. First, a pair of two identical conducting spheres with arbitrary separation immersed in a longitudinal or transverse field is considered, and the image dipoles and image charges, and their distribution induced in each sphere are determined. Then, the dipole moments for the clusters with 4 and 8 spheres arranged on the vertexes of a square or a cube are estimated, and closed-form expressions are given. Comparison with previous calculations is made, and good agreement has been obtained.

2000, 49 (8): 1464-1470. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1464
Abstract +
We have studied the non-resonance interaction between a V-type three-level atom and two-mode cavity with Kerr medium. The results show that if the detunings of the two-mode cavities are equal (δ1=δ2), when initial strength ξ of the two cavities remains unchanged and photon difference q of the two mode cavities is decreased, the non-classical coherence degree between the two mode cavities is increased; when q remains unchanged and ξ is increased, the non-classical coherence degree between the two mode cavities is decreased. When Δδ=|δ2-δ1|=0 and q and ξ remain unchanged, the non-classical coherence degree is decreased with the increase of Kerr effect, and the value of Δδ has an importance influence on the non-classical coherence degree. The results also show that when δ1=δ2, the second-order coherence degree of the cavity 1 shows g211222222>1. On the other hand, the amplitude evolution of the second-order coherence degree of two-mode cavity is decreased due to the influence of Kerr effect.

TAO XIANG-YANG, LIU SAN-QIU, NIE YI-YOU, FU CHUAN-HONG
2000, 49 (8): 1471-1477. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1471
Abstract +
We have studied the interaction between a cascacle three-level atom and the cavity field filled with Kerr medium by C-RWA. The influence of Kerr effect and virtual photon field on the photon anti-bunching is discussed. The results show that the quantum noise appears under C-RWA; the increase of x and ω or the decrease of g leads to the decrease of absorbance of atom and the reduction of photon antibunching;especially,the interaction is influenced obviouslly by g.
SPONTANEOUS EMISSION FROM A THREE-LEVEL ATOM EMBEDDED IN A THREE-DIMENSIONAL PHOTONIC CRYSTAL
XIE SHUANG-YUAN, YANG YA-PING, WU XIANG
2000, 49 (8): 1478-1483. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1478
Abstract +
We have studied the properties of spontaneous emission from a three-level atom embedded in a photonic crystal. Due to the anisotropic dispersion relation, the density of states lacks singularity. The localized field can disappear and the diffusion field can become intense in some regions.This is different from that in the isotropic dispersion relation case. These properties are directly related to the relative positions of the two upper levels from the band edge.

Abstract +
The knowledge about nonlinear quantum optics is applied to the study of the degenerate optical parametric oscillator as a quantum non-demolition (QND) measurement device. We find that the model can perform a perfect QND measurement at the threshold in the resonant case, and the optimum QND measurement occurs at the nonlinear double resonances in the detuning case.

Abstract +
We have investigated in the time-evolution and the squeezing character of atomic operators in a system of two-mode squeezed vacuum field interacting with a two-level atom without the rotating-wave approximation by means of quantum theory.The results obtained using the numerical method indicate that the influence of the virtual-photon field on the atomic quantum character is mainly the cause for quantum chaos which is related to the quantum character of the system itself.

ZHANG GUANG-YIN, SONG FENG, FENG YAN, XU JING-JUN
2000, 49 (8): 1495-1498. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1495
Abstract +
A novel resonator structure for solid state laser is proposed. A lens with short focal length is introduced in the resonator, and the laser crystal (thermal lens) is put at its focusing point, so a special lens set is composed . By using the transform circle approach it is found that the lens set functions as an optical ‘ballast’. With adjusting one end mirror along optical axis adaptively such a resonator may guarantee TEM00 mode dynamic stable operation of high-power solid state laser while thermal focal length varies within a wide range. While the beam spots of TEM00 mode at the laser crystal and end mirrors keep unchangeable.

Abstract +
We studied the nonlinear refraction properties of an organometallic fullerene-C60 derivative fac- and mer- [bis(1,2-diphenylphosphino) ethane] (tricarbonyl)(η2-fullerene-C60) chromium by using Z-scan method.We also investigated the nonlinear refraction behavior of exited-state nonlinear optical materials and the switching between self-defocusing and self-focusing caused by the refrangibility of high excited state based on rate-equation theory.The transformation intensity was worked out,and the experiment was simulated numerically.The theoretical results agrees well with the experimental data.

2000, 49 (8): 1503-1506. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1503
Abstract +
By comparing the second-order optical nonlinearity of electrically poled glass film and bulk glass samples, it was shown that both of them have similar poling and decay behavior. After analyzing the formation of bound charge and its influence on the second-order nonlinearity of glass, a qualitative model was proposed, indicating that the electric field induced by the bound charge plays an important role on the poling and decay of both film and bulk glass.

2000, 49 (8): 1513-1519. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1513
Abstract +
In order to offset the collisional effects reduced by using finite-size particles,β particle clouds are used in particle simulation codes (β is the ratio of charge or mass of modeling particles to real ones).The method of impulse approximation (strait line orbit approximation) is used to analyze the scattering cross section of β particle clouds plasmas.By this way,we can obtain the relation of the value of a and β and scattering cross section (a is the radius of β particle cloud).By using this relation we can determine the value of a and β so that the collisional effects of the modeling system is correspondent with the real one.We can also adjust the values of a and β so that we can enhance or reduce the collisional effects fictitiously.The results of simulation are in good agreement with our theoretical ones.

Abstract +
To eliminate the influence of experimental error, analytical function is adopted to model the experimental profiles. Much attention has been paid to the analysis of the effects of such factors as Kα doublet, broadening and alignment of profiles etc. on the Fourier coefficients and deconvoluted profile obtained from the Stokes correction.The reliability of the separation of size-and strain-broadening from Fourier coefficients or deconvoluted profile is estimated. A method is proposed for the simultaneous refinement of accurate Bragg angle from the deconvolution procedure.

2000, 49 (8): 1524-1527. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1524
Abstract +
Hexagonal diamond nano-grains in irradiated surface of graphite produced by ion bombardment at high doses of 0.6keV Ar+ have been found,using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM).The average diameter (D) of the grains was varied between ~2 and ~50nm,and the grain population decreases almost monotonic ally as grain size increases.It is of interest to note that they exhibit a distinctly bimodal structure.For diameters less than 10nm,the microstructure of grains are single crystals,but the polycrystal structure of nano-grains with larger diameter (>10nm) can be also observed.The characteristics of this bimodal structure are on the basis of hexagonal diamond nano-grain nucleation and growth mechanisms,which are restricted by the characteristics of ion bombardment processes.

2000, 49 (8): 1528-1533. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1528
Abstract +
We study the Coulomb explosions for swift C60 ion-clusters penetrating through solids.Assuming that the directions of relative position vectors between ions in the cluster are random distributions and using the spherical-shell model to describe the structures of the C60 ion-cluster,some analytical expressions of the self-energy of the cluster are obtained based on the linear-response dielectric theory with the PLA dielectric function.It has been found that by solving the equations of motion for the cluster radius,the wake effects in the self-energy can reduce the Coulomb explosions,and even stabilize the cluster structure.

2000, 49 (8): 1534-1540. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1534
Abstract +
We study the interaction of the swift C60 ion-clusters with solids. The dynamic interacting forces acting on the individual ions in the cluster are derived based on the linear-response dielectric theory with the PLA dielectric function, and a set of equations describing the motion of the individual ions is obtained. It has been shown that by solving the equations of the motion, the wake effects of the dynamic interactions result in the strong asymmetric structures of the high-velocity C60 clusters, i.e., the leading ions in the cluster explode very fast, while the trailing ions in the cluster almost remain in stable states.

Abstract +
We successfully synthesized La1.85Sr0.15Cu1-xMxOy (M=Zn,Ni,Mg) with y≤0.30 ceramic cuprates. X-ray diffraction studies show that there is no impurity phase in all Zn,Ni,Mg-doped LSCO. Rietveld refinement technique is used to obtain the lattice constant,atomic position coordinates and reflection profile parameters for all samples. There is a tetragonal-to-orthorhombic phase transition in the range of 0.10c of the samples in superconducting state.

2000, 49 (8): 1545-1549. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1545
Abstract +
The electronic structure of PbWO4 crystal is studied with the relativistic self-consistent discrete variational embedded cluster method in the framework of density functional theory. The results show that the valence band is mainly made up of O2p with a certain amount of W5d component, and the conduction band is mainly made up of the hybrid states of W5d and O2p. The bottom of the conduction band is first found to be occupied by a narrow Pb6p1/2 state. The band gap and the width of valence band are around 4.8 and 4.0eV, respectively. The results can successfully interpret the reflective spectrum of the crystal. The mechanism of the blue luminescence of the crystal is discussed.

THEORETICAL STUDY OF LOW-ENERGY ELEMENTARY EXCITATIONS IN SPIN-PEIERLS SYSTEM
XU JING, CHEN HONG, ZHANG YU-MEI, FENG WEI-GUO
2000, 49 (8): 1550-1555. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1550
Abstract +
By using bosonization technique and quantum self-consistent theory, we study the low-energy excitations of a spin-Peierls system. The ground state, one-particle excited state, two-particle bound state are calculated, and it is shown, as the frustration increases, the energy of the ground state decreases while the energy gap of the one- and two-particle states increases. By analysing the asymototic behavior of the longitudinal spin correlation function, we obtain that the two-particle bound state has similar spin structures as those of the singlet ground state. Thus, we regard the bound state as a singlet state, which exists between the ground state and the two-particle continuous excited state. Our results are qualitatively in agreement with the experimental phenomena observed by Ain et al. It is shown that the existence of bound state is one of the spin-Peierls system's characteristic features.

Abstract +
We proposed a tight-binding model for diblock copolymers. Electronic structure calculations presented for poly(p-phenylene)/polyacetylene revealed that the band gap of copolymers can be tuned by changing the concentration ratio of the homopolymers. The effect of homopolymer interactions on the band structure of copolymers has been studied. The results were compared with the known experimental data.

2000, 49 (8): 1567-1573. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1567
Abstract +
Based on the sharp resistance change near the metal-insulator transition (M-I) of the colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) materials, we design and test a new type CMR bolometer. La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 epitaxial thin films were used as the photosensitive element of the bolometer, and the optical response of this device to the He-Ne laser and the blackbody were measured. The measured signal and noise decrease with increasing modulation frequency; however, the signal-to-noise ratio shows no obvious change for the He-Ne laser. The temperature dependence of signal was measured in both ferromagnetic metallic and paramagnetic insulating states. It shows that the strongest signal appears in the ferromagnetic state very close to the M-I point. The film's Curie temperature can span from 70 to 350K, depending on the manufacture conditions. So, working near or at room temperature characterizes this CMR thin film bolometer. In this sense, it compensates the weakness of the high-temperature superconductor bolometer that can be used only around the liquid Nitrogen (LN) temperature.The measured detectivity is about 107 cmHz1/2/W and the thermal response constant is 20ms for this device. Compared with the high-temperature superconductor bolometer, the time constant of CMR bolometer is longer and the detectivity is lower. However, there is much room to improve yet.

WANG CHUAN-KUI, JIANG ZHAO-TAN
2000, 49 (8): 1574-1579. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1574
Abstract +
The ballistic transport properties of electrons in bent quantum wires are studied. The bent quantum wire composed of T-typed and single-bent quantum wires has finite length and connects to two semi-infinite quantum channels, which serve as emitter and collector when a potential difference is applied. The numerical results show that the conductance have two peaks at the energy of electrons less than the eigenvalue of the first transverse mode. Furthermore, these peaks are due to the resonant tunneling via bound states in the quantum structure. The detailed studies of these quantum bound states are shown in the paper.

2000, 49 (8): 1580-1585. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1580
Abstract +
The effect of the external magnetic field on macroscopic quantum tunneling in biaxial single domain antiferromagnetic particles is studied with the help of the instanton method. It is shown that the decay rate increases with increasing external magnetic field applied along the easy axis of the magnetization, and that the tunneling splitting oscilates with respect to the external magnetic field in the direction of the medium axis. Our results may be helpful for experimental observation of the macroscopic quantum coherence and the tunneling decay in single domain antiferromagnetic particles.

Abstract +
Spin-1/2 anisotropic Heisenberg chain in longitudinal external magnetic field is studied by traditional Jordan-Wigner transformation and bosonization method. In the presence of an external field, both Fermi velocity and Fermi momentum are changed, thus the bosonization procedure is also changed. The antiferromagnetic phase and paramagnetic phase are discussed and the dependence of ground state energy and magnetization on the field are calculated and depicted for some typical cases.

2000, 49 (8): 1591-1594. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1591
Abstract +
On the basis of core-shell structure model of amorphous wires, for Fe-based amorphous wire we consider that there are an axial anisotropy Kc in the core and a radial anisotropy Ks in the shell, both of Kc and Ks are functions of λs and σ0,the constants of stress energy density. We deduce the ac circular permeability μφ(r) and calculate the anomaly factor of low-frequency eddy-current-loss for this model,η=2.2, from Maxwell equation and Ohm's law. Comparison of the theoretical value with the experimental results indicates that the magnetic structure of Fe-based amorphous wires can be well described by this improved core-shell structure model.

2000, 49 (8): 1595-1599. doi: 10.7498/aps.49.1595
Abstract +
La-Zn doped M type Sr-ferrite thin films with various doping concentration were prepared by conventional rf diode sputtering. La-Zn doping reduces the grain growth rate, so that fine grains with mean grain size about 12nm were prepared with superior magnetic properties. It is found that suitable amount of La-Zn substitution may increase the Ms of the films, and modify the tempareture coefficient of coercivity, while Hc increases with increasing concentration of La-Zn.

Abstract +
Two series of isotropic nanostructured Fe-Pt permenent magnetic thin films have been prepared by sputtering Fe/Pt multilayers and subsequent vacuum annealing. Their structures and magnetic properties have been inverstigated. Studies show that Fe-Pt permenent magnetic thin films with Fe-rich were composed of two phases: a hard FePt phase and a soft Fe3Pt phase. Saturation magnetic polarization and remaenence increase with increasing thickness of the Fe layer. Kelly-Henkel plot indicates that magnetic interactions in Fe-Pt thin films are mainly determined by ferromagnetic exchange interaction between neighboring grains.

Abstract +
The pyroelectricity of Pb0.99Nb0.02[(Zr1-xSnx)1-yTiy]0.98O3 antiferroelectric and ferroelectric ceramics is investigated. Experimental results show that phase transitions are accompanied with drastic electric current changes and form positive or negative pyroelectric peaks. The transformations from ferroelectric into antiferro- or paraelectric phases make positive pyroelectric peaks, and the transformations from antiferroelectric into ferro- or paraelectric phases make negative pyroelectric peaks. Suppose electrostatic potentials of various phases are different, then the relation between the orientation of pyroelectric peak and the type of phase transition could be explained properly. With the above relation the phase transitions with temperature variations in Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 antiferroelectric-ferroelectric materials can be defined.

Abstract +
Longitudinal Electro-optic modulation has been demonstrated using poled electro-optic polymer films placed in a Fabry-Perot(F-P) cavity, in which the directions of the poling electric field, the applied electric field and the light traveling are parallel with each other, and perpendicular to the surface of the polymer film. The F-P cavity used here had a fineness of about 18. The thickness of polymer films is about 1μm. The modulation depth about 0.012%, was achieved, in a low ac field of 1V/μm. The results demonstrate that it is possible to achieve electro-optic modulation of poled polymer films and to study the films using F-P cavity.

Abstract +
We have studied the carrier concentration and the mobility in GaN expitaxial thin films deposited on sapphire substrate using infrared reflection spectroscopy. By theoretical calculation and fitting with the experimental IR reflection spectra for a series of Si-doped GaN epilayers and the sapphire substrate, we obtain the phonon vibrating parameters and plasmon frequency and damping constant in GaN. The carrier concentration and mobility have been deduced. The results show that the data for carrier concentration coincide with Hall measurement while the mobility is lower than Hall data by a factor of about 0.5. The variation of the LO phonon-plasmon coupling mode with doping level has been clearly observed. Raman measurement has been performed on the same series of samples, showing that the behavior of the LO phonon-plasmon coupling mode is similar to that in IR measurement.

Abstract +
Energy transfers and upconversion fluorescence spectroscopy in both Er3+ singly doped and Tm3+-Yb3+ co-doped AlF3-based flouride glass,excited at 970nm,are investigated experimentally.In Er3+:AYF glass,the optium Er3+content for 550nm emission is about at 6mol%,which is 12mol% in AZF glass.With the increase of Er3+ content,the intensity ratio of the red emission to the green emission (Ired/Igreen) is increased in AYF and AZF glass,and the red emission intensity in these gass depends on (Pex)1.6.They are mainly due to a cross-relaxation process between two erbium ions,one in the 4S3/2 and the other in the 4I9/2.In Tm3+-Yb3+ co-doped AlF3-based flouride glass,the concentration quenching of Tm3+ in blue at 476nm is stronger than that in infrared light at 793nm,and the optimum content of Tm3+ for 476nm emission is about 0.1mol%,while it is (0.3—5)mol% for 793nm emission.The concentration quenching of Yb3+ to upconvertion fluorescence is also observed.It may be due to the back-energy transfer from the 3F4 level of Tm3+ to the 2F5/2 level of Yb3+.

Abstract +
Based on the Fowler-Nordheim tunneling injection, a model for carriers transport and recombination in organic bilayer devices at high electric field is presented. The influences of applied bias and interface barriers on carriers recombination and its efficiency are calculated and discussed. The theory derived from this model reasonably elucidates the experimental phenomena, and it proves that the electric field can control the carriers recombination region.

Abstract +
The multiple-scattering cluster method (MSC) has been used to study theoretically the sulphur K-edge NEXAFS of SO2 adsorbed on the Ag (110) at 1/2 coverage.It is shown that SO2 is adsorbed on the Ag (110) with S atom sitting in the hollow site and two O atoms being in an asymmetric geometry,the molecular plane is rotated from the (110) by approximately 52° and tited slightly towards the substrate.Compared to the case of the gas phase SO2,the O—S intramolecular bond length is elngated by (0.014±0.006)nm and the OSO bond angle is reduced by 15°±5° after adsorption.The resonance located between π* and σ* is proved to be induced by the interaction between SO2 and substrate.

Abstract +
A precise and rapid analytical algorithm has been developed for calculating proton energy deposition in media. The results covering the radiotherapy energy range (50—250MeV) from this algorithm and data from Monte Carlo code are given. Comparison between them shows that 1) The Nonelastic nuclear interaction have severe influence on proton energy deposition, especially when the initial energy of proton beams is high. 2) The algorithm is 100 times faster than Monte Carlo methods. It satisfies the requirement of precision and speed. The algorithm shows its great potentiality in proton radiotherapy.

A new laser experimental phenomenon has been discovered by high-repetition-rate pulse discharge in the calcium-ion and strontium-ion vapor, that is, the alternate oscillation of self-terminating transition laser pulse and collisional radiative recombination laser pulse. On the basis of analyzing similarities and differences of their prompting mechanisms, some preparatory contrast experimental studies were undertaken.
