Abstract A new approach to the calculation of a teratomic recombination rate constant k(T) has been dem-onstrated. An expression for k(T) has been obtained in the eikonal approximation. The numerical calculation has been carried out for the Rb*-Xe system. Good agreement in the order of magnitude between the present results and the experimental data of Carrington et al. has been obtained.

Impedance matching and heat management are important factors influencing the performance of terahertz sources. In this work we analyze thermal and radiative properties of such devices based on mesa structures of a layered high-temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ. Two types of devices are considered containing either a conventional large single crystal or a whisker. We perform numerical simulations for various geometrical configurations and parameters and make a comparison with experimental data for the two types of devices. It is demonstrated that the structure and the geometry of both the superconductor and the electrodes play important roles. In crystal-based devices an overlap between the crystal and the electrode leads to appearance of a large parasitic capacitance, which shunts terahertz emission and prevents impedance matching with open space. The overlap is avoided in whisker-based devices. Furthermore, the whisker and the electrodes form a turnstile (crossed-dipole) antenna facilitating good impedance matching. This leads to more than an order of magnitude enhancement of the radiation power efficiency in whisker-based, compared to crystal-based, devices. These results are in good agreement with presented experimental data.

The dynamics of the 1,4-migration of some O-substituted 3,5-di-tert-butyl-ortho-semiquinone radicals have been calculated by density-functional theory (DFT). There is very good agreement in the rate constant and Arrhenius parameters between these calculations and experimental values for migration of H, D, and the Me3Si group. For the Me3Sn group, the calculations indicate an incredibly fast migration (k293K = 2.0 × 1012 s–1), a result that is consistent with experimental data (k293K > 109 s–1). Other O-substituents examined by DFT and compared with experimental data were H3C and Me2ClSn.
