A new, general expression for the position-dependent differential inverse mean free path (DIMFP) of an electron penetrating into vacuum from a solid is derived. This DIMFP can be divided up into a bulk and a surface term. It is found that the surface effect is restricted to a surface layer extending on both sides of the vacuum-solid interface. An extended Drude dielectric function, which allows the characteristic oscillator strength, damping constant, and critical-point energy for each subband of valence electrons, is employed to estimate electron DIMFPs near Al and Au surfaces. Our results are relevant to the understanding of inelastic electron scattering near a solid surface.

We examined a single vortex line in an infinite type-II superconducting thin film with finite thickness. The thickness dependence of the magnetic force acting on a point dipole placed above a superconducting film is calculated as the negative of the gradient of the interaction energy, coupled to the London theory of superconductivity with electromagnetics. We also considered the situation of a single vortex creation in the thin film, caused by the field of the magnetic dipole tip itself. The thickness dependence of the critical position of the point dipole for creating the first vortex line in the thin film is calculated.

Influences of deposition temperature on thermal stability and moisture resistance of chemical vapor deposited fluorinated silicon oxide by using indirect fluorinating precursor

In this letter, fluorinated silicon oxide (FxSiOy) films were deposited in the electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) chemical vapor deposition system with SiH4, O-2, and CF4 as the reaction gases. The CF4, in contrast to SiF4 or FSi(OC2H5)(3) used in other reports, is an indirect fluorinating source. The fluorinating mechanism is similar to that of the etching of oxide by fluorocarbon plasma, therefore, the thermal stability of the incorporated fluorine must strongly depend on the deposition temperature. It is found that the thermal stability and moisture resistance are greatly improved by increasing the deposition temperature. However, the higher deposition temperature also results in a higher compressed stress and dielectric constant. Besides, to get the moisture resistance, the deposition temperature must be above 300 degrees C. On the other hand, ECR-SiO2 (without fluorination), even deposited at room temperature, is shown to have a good water resistance. Therefore, by choosing deposition temperature for FxSiOy to have enough thermal tolerance and capping with ECR-SiO2, the moisture resistor is suggested for the inter metal dielectric applications.

Quasi-threshold graphs are defined recursively by the following rules: (1) K-1 is a quasi-threshold graph, (2) adding a new vertex adjacent to all vertices of a quasi-threshold graph results in a quasi-threshold graph, (3) the disjoint union of two quasi-threshold graphs is a quasi-threshold graph. This paper gives some new equivalent definitions of a quasi-threshold graph. From them, linear time recognition algorithms follow. We also give linear time algorithms for the edge domination problem and the bandwidth problem in this class of graphs.

Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) has been melt-mixed at 293 degrees C with two types of co[poly(ethylene terephthalate-p-oxybenzoate)] (POB-PET) copolyester, designated as P28 and P82, at the level of 10 wt %. The different p-acetoxybenzoic acid/PET mole ratios are 20/80 in P28 and 80/20 in P82. The blends were heated to 305 degrees C and then cooled to 25 degrees C at rate of 10 degrees C/min. The crystalline morphology of these blends in the range from 25 degrees C to 305 degrees C is monitored by polarized light microscopy. Morphologic observations revealed a quicker appearance of crystalline in the blends upon the addition of 10 wt % copolyester as a nucleating agent. It is found that P28, which contains fewer POB units, is much more advantageous to the nucleation process than P82, which contains more POB units. According to the optical photomicrographs, sufficient uniformity of distribution of copolyester domains in the PET matrix is reached after 8 min blending. (C) 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was blended with a co[poly(ethylene terephthalate-p-oxybenzoate)] (POB-PET) copolyester which is a liquid crystalline polymer consisting of p-oxybenzoate and ethylene terephthalate units in a 40/60 mol ratio (P46). The level of P46 liquid crystalline polymer varies from 10 to 50 wt %. All the blends were prepared by melt-mixing in a Brabender Plasticorder at 275 degrees C for different times. The thermal and crystallization behaviors of blends depend on the blending time and the composition of blends, viz., the content of the p-oxybenzoate (POB) moiety incorporated into the blends. The interchange reactions detected by proton NMR analysis occur during the processing at a greater level if the blending time increases. These interchange reactions hinder the crystallization processes of PET and result in a decrease of the melting point, the heat of fusion, crystallization temperature, and the heat of crystallization of the original PET. The effects of the interchange reaction on thermal and crystallization behaviors of the blends may be attributed to the insertion of the rigid POB units into the soft PET chain.

Al2O3/Al-Zn-Mg-Cu composites containing 2.0 similar to 3.0 wt.% Mg in the matrix alloy have been fabricated by squeeze casting. Light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and image analysis were used to examine and analyze the details of microstructure and the fracture surface. Tensile tests were utilized to evaluate the mechanical properties. The aging behavior of the composites was studied by using differential scanning calorimetry technique and microhardness tests. The microhardness and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of the composites increase with increasing Mg content. The maximum microhardness and UTS of the composites occur at 120 degrees C aging for 24 h.
A Laplace transform solution for tracer tests in a radially convergent flow field with upstream dispersion

When tracers are introduced into an injection borehole, noticeable concentration gradients at the injection well may cause a backward spreading of the initial plume during radially convergent tracer tests. Based on this concept a non-rigorous mathematical model is developed to estimate the effect of backward spreading. The injection well with an instantaneous slug input is treated as a mathematical source and the initial plume at the injection well is allowed to move upstream. The model assumes that advection and longitudinal dispersion are the transport mechanisms in a radially converging how field. The Laplace transform solution for solute concentration in an infinite porous medium is obtained using the method of Green's function. Breakthrough curves are computed by numerically inverting the Laplace transform solution. As compared with the solution of Moench, it is concluded that the presence of backward movement of initial plume yields a decrease of peak concentration and spreading out of breakthrough curve tails. This effect is significant for small Peclet numbers and can be neglected for large Peclet numbers. A field tracer test is carried out to demonstrate the applicability of the model. The experimental data are fitted with the type curves of this study, and those of Moench's study, to determine dispersivity and aquifer porosity. The results show that dispersivity values estimated by matching the two type curves are different. Because it neglects backward dispersion, Moench's solution overestimates the dispersivity and effective aquifer porosity.

A series of poly(phenylene vinylene) (PPV)/gel-glass composites were prepared from mixtures of PPV precursor and silicon alkoxide methanol solution by employing a sol-gel process. The PPV/gel-glass composite, which is an interpenetrating network (IPN) structure, is used as the emissive layer in a polymeric light-emitting diode (LED). The addition of a small quantity of titanium ethoxide catalysed the reaction of gel-glass formation, making the PPV/gel-glass formation successful without phase separation and the luminescence of the composite film tunable. The luminescence characteristics of these PPV/gel-glass composites are dependent on the raw-material composition of silicon alkoxide and the molar ratio of PPV to gel-glass. From the ultra-violet/visible absorption spectrum, the conjugated length of these PPV/gel-glass composites can be seen to be shorter than that of pure PPV. The resultant PPV/gel-glasses emit light over a wide range from yellow-green (550 nm) to blue (484 nm) in the photoluminescence spectrum. Electroluminescent devices made from PPV/gel-glass 4 composites in the molar ratios of 1/1.17 and 1/2.33 shows a maximum emission peak at 515 and 510 nm, respectively. These PPV/gel-glass 4 LEDs showed a higher relative electroluminescence efficiency and a longer lifetime than pure PPV. The improvement in the device stability is related to the reduction of the thermal vibration of PPV chains during operation and the hindrance of carrier mobility in the IPN structure.

We fabricated a multilayer negative-birefringent film as a phase compensator to minimize light leakage from twisted nematic liquid crystal displays in oblique incidence. The multilayer film stack is composed of alternating thin layers of silicon dioxide and titanium dioxide, which is magnetron sputtered on the glass substrates. The experiment agrees with the characteristic matrix calculation. Since each layer is not ''thin'' enough compared with visible spectra, the multilayer thin stack induces interference phenomena, and consequently reduces the transmittance. In order to eliminate the interference, we optimized the multilayer thin film to achieve high transmittance in the region of visible spectra.
