Sonic Crystals

Sonic crystals are periodic structures made of sound hard scatterers which attenuate sound in a range of frequencies. For an infinite periodic structure, this range of frequencies is known as band gap, and is determined by the geometric arrangement of the scatterers. In this paper, a parametric study on rectangular sonic crystal is presented. It is found that geometric spacing between the scatterers in the direction of sound propagation affects the center frequency of the band gap. Reducing the geometric spacing between the scatterers in the direction perpendicular to the sound propagation helps in better sound attenuation. Such rectangular arrangement of scatterers gives better sound attenuation than the regular square arrangement of scatterers. The model for parametric study is also supported by some experimental results.

Analytical approximations for the acoustical properties of a rigid-porous matrix perforated by labyrinthine slits are developed using classical theories for sound propagation in tortuous slits and for sound absorption by double porosity materials. Predictions of enhanced low-frequency absorption result from a combination of pressure diffusion and labyrinth tortuosity if there is a high permeability contrast between the matrix and the labyrinthine slit. Additional insight into the predicted influence of the properties of the porous matrix is gained by considering the matrix porosity to be provided by inclined micro-slits. Extra tortuosity can be introduced by alternating the width of the labyrinthine slit. An alternating-width vertical-wall labyrinth perforation is predicted to lead to low-frequency absorption peaks in a relatively low-flow-resistivity and low-porosity matrix. Example predictions, even when using underestimates of labyrinth tortuosity, demonstrate the potential of labyrinthine slit perforations for achieving narrowband deep sub wavelength absorption peaks from thin hard-backed porous layers.

Radiative Model

AbstractIn order to achieve a nickel-like X ray laser scheme we need a tool to determine the parameters which characterise the high-Z plasma. The aim of this work is to study gold laser plasmas and to compare experimental results to a collisional-radiative model which describes nickel-like ions. The electronic temperature and density are measured by the emission of an aluminium tracer. They are compared to the predictions of the nickel-like model for pure gold. The results show that the density and temperature can be estimated in a pure gold plasma.

Lattice Images

Since phase contrasts of STEM images, that is, Fresnel diffraction fringes or lattice images, manifest themselves in field emission scanning microscopy, the mechanism for image formation in the STEM mode has been investigated and compared with that in CTEM mode, resulting in the theory of reciprocity. It reveals that contrast in STEM images exhibits the same properties as contrast in CTEM images. However, it appears that the validity of the reciprocity theory, especially on the details of phase contrast, has not yet been fully proven by the experiments. In this work, we shall investigate the phase contrast images obtained in both the STEM and CTEM modes of a field emission microscope (100kV), and evaluate the validity of the reciprocity theory by comparing the experimental results.

Phosphorus Doped

A (111) phosphorus-doped Si specimen, thinned to give a TEM foil of thickness ∼ 150nm, contained a dislocation network lying on the (111) plane. The dislocation lines were along the three <211> directions and their total Burgers vectors,ḇt, were of the type , each dislocation being of edge character. TEM examination under proper weak-beam conditions seemed initially to show the standard contrast behaviour for such dislocations, indicating some dislocation segments were undissociated (contrast A), while other segments were dissociated to give two Shockley partials separated by approximately 6nm (contrast B) . A more detailed examination, however, revealed that some segments exhibited a third and anomalous contrast behaviour (contrast C), interpreted here as being due to a new dissociation not previously reported. Experimental results obtained for a dislocation along [211] with for the six <220> type reflections using (g,5g) weak-beam conditions are summarised in the table below, together with the relevant values.

Vicinal Si (001) surfaces are interesting because they are good substrates for the growth of III-V semiconductors. Spots in RHEED patterns from vicinal surfaces are split due to scattering from ordered step arrays and this splitting can be used to determine the misorientation angle, using kinematic arguments. Kinematic theory is generally regarded to be inadequate for the calculation of RHEED intensities; however, only a few dynamical RHEED simulations have been attempted for vicinal surfaces. The multislice formulation of Cowley and Moodie with a recently developed edge patching method was used to calculate RHEED patterns from vicinal Si (001) surfaces. The calculated patterns are qualitatively similar to published experimental results and the positions of the split spots quantitatively agree with kinematic calculations.RHEED patterns were calculated for unreconstructed (bulk terminated) Si (001) surfaces misoriented towards [110] ,with an energy of 15 keV, at an incident angle of 36.63 mrad ([004] bragg condition), and a beam azimuth of [110] (perpendicular to the step edges) and the incident beam pointed down the step staircase.
