We present measurements of the magnetic field dependent microwave dissipation in a heavy-ion irradiated thin YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7-δ film, in order to study the effects of columnar defects on the pinning of vortices. Columnar defects were produced at 45° with respect to the c axis. Measurements of the microwave dissipation at 48 GHz were taken as a function of the angle between the field and the c axis, in order to compare the response along and perpendicular to the columns. The field was in the 0.3 T range. Several temperatures near the liquid nitrogen temperature were investigated. We find a dip in the dissipation when the field is aligned to the tracks. The dip is absent when the field is aligned perpendicular to the tracks, and with the same angle with respect to the crystallographic directions. The dip is not very sharp, and shows up for angles as far as 30° from the track directions. From the measurements, we estimate the pinning frequency along the columns at 80 K to be νpc ≃ 25 GHz .

AbstractThe piezoelectric photoacoustic (PPA) spectra for Cu-rich CuGaSe2 (CGS)/GaAs epitaxial layers were successfully observed between liquid nitrogen and room temperatures for the first time. Bandgap energy of CGS (A band) is estimated to be 1.72 eV at liquid nitrogen temperature. The activation energies of three possible intrinsic defect levels are estimated to be about 80, 130 and 190 meV.

AbstractNanocrystalline self supporting thin films of Ni, Co, Cr, V, and Ti were irradiated with 600 keV Xe ions at liquid nitrogen temperature and the resulting grain growth was measured by transmission electron microscopy. Average grain sizes were seen to increase from about 10 nm to 18–35 nm, depending on the metal. Systematic variations did not support current thermal spike models.

Electron probe microanalysis of frozen hydrated kidneysThe goal of the method is to measure on the same preparation the chemical elemental content of the renal luminal tubular fluid and of the surrounding renal tubular cells. The following method has been developed. Rat kidneys are quenched in solid nitrogen. They are trimmed under liquid nitrogen and mounted in a copper holder using a conductive medium. Under liquid nitrogen, a flat surface is exposed by sawing with a diamond saw blade at constant speed and constant pressure using a custom-built cryosaw. Transfer into the electron probe column (Cameca, MBX) is made using a simple transfer device maintaining the sample under liquid nitrogen in an interlock chamber mounted on the electron probe column. After the liquid nitrogen is evaporated by creating a vacuum, the sample is pushed into the special stage of the instrument. The sample is maintained at close to liquid nitrogen temperature by circulation of liquid nitrogen in the special stage.

When sharp metal filaments of W, Fe, Nb or Ta are observed in the field-ion microscope (FIM), their appearance is differentiated primarily by variations in regional brightness. This regional brightness, particularly prominent at liquid nitrogen temperature has been attributed in the main to chemical specificity which manifests itself in a paricular array of surface-atom electron-orbital configurations.Recently, anomalous image brightness and streaks in both fcc and bee materials observed in the FIM have been shown to be the result of surface asperities and related topographic features which arise by the unsystematic etching of the emission-tip end forms.
