    Notes: Up to now, in most of the research work done on the effect of hydrogen on a Schottky barrier, the hydrogen was introduced into the semiconductor before metal deposition. This letter reports that hydrogen can be effectively introduced into the Schottky barriers (SBs) of Au/n-GaAs and Ti/n-GaAs by plasma hydrogen treatment (PHT) after metal deposition on 〈100〉 oriented n-GaAs substrates. The Schottky barrier height (SBH) of a SB containing hydrogen shows the zero/reverse bias annealing (ZBA/RBA) effect. ZBA makes the SBH decrease and RBA makes it increase. The variations in the SBHs are reversible. In order to obtain obvious ZBA/RBA effects, selection of the temperature for plasma hydrogen treatment is important, and it is indicated that 100 °C for Au/n-GaAs and 150 °C for Ti/n-GaAs are suitable temperatures. It is concluded from the analysis of experimental results that only the hydrogen located at or near the metal-semiconductor interface, rather than the hydrogen in the bulk of either the semiconductor or the metal, is responsible for the ZBA/RBA effect on SBH.

    Notes: Hydrogenated amorphous carbon films were prepared from CH4, H2, and Ar mixtures by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. Films with various physical properties resulting from various deposition conditions were utilized for this study. The varying deposition parameters included H2 flow rates, Ar flow rates, total pressures, substrate temperatures, and power densities. A systematic study regarding the relationship between deposition conditions and the microstructures, optical, and thermal properties was conducted. Furthermore, how the optical and thermal properties related to the microstructures was analyzed. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was employed in this paper for determining the hydrogen concentration and the amounts of tetrahedral and trigonal bondings associated with C—H bond and their relative ratio while the optical properties were measured by optical spectrophotometer. Additionally, photothermal deflection spectroscopy was applied for the measurements of thermal diffusion length.

    Notes: The symmetry-predicted nonzero components of the piezoelectric coefficient, dielectric constant, and elastic compliance matrices have been determined on poly(vinylidene fluoride/trifluoroethylene)(75/25) copolymer at room temperature and a frequency of 500 Hz. The temperature dependence of each of the complex piezoelectric coefficients and complex dielectric constants has been measured in the temperature range of −100 to 65 °C. The frequency dependence of these coefficients has also been measured at room temperature. It is found that the relaxation observed in the tensile piezoelectric coefficients of this material is different from that of the dielectric constants, whereas the relaxation of the piezoelectric shear constants shows behavior similar to that of the dielectric constants.

    Notes: Bismuth titanate (Bi4Ti3O12) thin films have been grown on (100) silicon substrates at 550 °C by atmospheric pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition using Bi (C6H5)3 and Ti (OC4H9)4 as the source materials. The x-ray diffraction analysis and reflection electron diffraction pattern revealed that the film is a single crystal with a (100) orientation. Ferroelectric properties were confirmed by polarization hysteresis curve observation. The remanent polarization and coercive field were found to be 38 μC/cm2 and 45 kV/cm, respectively. The measured dielectric constant and loss tangent were 93 and 0.05, respectively, at room temperature.

    Notes: Direct current SQUIDs (superconducting quantum interference devices) have been successfully fabricated by using a Pb-doped BiSrCaCuO superconducting thin film made by mixed evaporation of a single source composed of related components with a resistance heater. The dc SQUID comprises a square washer with a small hole. These SQUIDs show perfectly periodic voltage-flux characteristics without magnetic shield, that is, typically, the flux noise and energy resolution at a frequency range from dc to 1 Hz and at 78 K being 1.7×10−3 Φ0/(square root of)Hz and 3.6×10−26 J/Hz, respectively. Meanwhile, we have found out that one of the SQUIDs still was able to operate on flux-locked mode without bias currents and showed voltage-flux second harmonic characteristics. This phenomenon is not well understood, but it may be related to I-V (current-voltage) characteristics of the dc SQUID.

    Notes: In general, the piezoelectric ceramic and polymer in a 1–3 type composite will have different deformations when subjected to an external field. How each component deforms, to a large extent, determines the performance of the composite. Based on the force equilibrium condition, an elastic model is introduced to analyze the strain profiles of these composites, and the theoretical results are in quantitative agreement with the strain profiles measured on several composites using a double beam ultradilatometer. The results obtained provide quantitative information on how various parameters in a composite affect the performance of the composite. Furthermore, a scheme is proposed for evaluating the strain profile of a 1–3 type composite under a hydrostatic pressure using a double beam dilatometer.

    Notes: Bilayers Nd-Fe/Cu and Nd-Fe/Al made by vacuum evaporation were studied. The magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) and reflectivity spectra were measured. For Nd-Fe/Cu with low Nd content and small thickness of Nd-Fe layer there is a peak in the MOKE spectrum and a broad MOKE enhancement. The position is located near the plasma edge of Cu. When the content of Nd exceeds 37 at. %, there is no Kerr peak in the MOKE spectrum of Nd-Fe/Cu. When the thickness of the magnetic layer is larger but still less than the light penetration depth, the position of the peak moves towards the long-wavelength side. For Nd-Fe/Al there is a broad enhancement in the short-wavelength region, but no Kerr peak occurs no matter how the magnetic layer changes. The results presented show that the necessary conditions for MOKE enhancement in bilayers are suitable values of n and k of the reflector, whether the reflector has a plasma edge or not, and the enhancement also depends on the properties of the magnetic layer.

    Notes: The vapor deposition of diamond by cycling growth and etchant mixtures was investigated as a function of cycle time, tcycle, the fraction of the cycle at which growth occurs, τgrowth, and the atomic fraction of carbon in the growth mixture xC. A kinetic model that incorporates diamond growth through a new interdependent methyl and acetylene reaction sequence was used to predict both deposition rates and the carbon deposit sp2 fractions. The important influence of aromatics on the predicted sp2 fractions is thoroughly discussed. The results from the kinetic model were tested experimentally with a microwave-activated deposition system equipped to allow reactant gas cycling between growth (CH4 in He) and etchant (O2 in H2) mixtures. The deposits were characterized by their Raman spectra and scanning electron micrographs. Both the kinetic model and the experimental results show an increase in deposit quality (lower sp2 fraction) with decreasing tcycle and with decreasing τgrowth. Linear growth rates estimated from deposit particle dimensions were typically on the order of 1 μm/h. The kinetic model does not address nucleation rates, but experimental results indicate a trend toward lower rates at shorter tcycle and decreasing τgrowth. The deposit character was less sensitive to xC changes in the growth gas, but renucleation was more apparent at higher carbon fractions. Both the model and experiments show a critical cycle time t*cycle; at shorter cycle times the deposit quality is always high, while at higher times significant fractions of sp2 carbon are present. The t*cycle value is a function of experimental conditions, and in the present study was found to be strongly dependent on the fraction of carbon used in the reactant gas and total pressure, and slightly less dependent on τgrowth. Previously reported cyclic deposition studies were found to be consistent with predictions expected from the kinetic model used in this study.

    Notes: Bilayers Fe/Au-Cu and Fe/Ag-Au made by vacuum evaporation were studied. The magneto-optical polar Kerr rotation and reflectivity spectra were measured in the region from 400 to 700 nm. In the magneto-optical Kerr rotation spectra of bilayers Fe/Au-Cu and Fe/Ag-Au with the thickness of Fe layer less than the light penetration depth, there is a broad enhancement of the magneto-optical polar Kerr rotation with a Kerr peak near the plasma edge in the reflectivity spectra of Au-Cu and Ag-Au alloys. The peak shifts toward the long wavelength side with increasing Cu and Au content in Au-Cu and Ag-Au alloys, respectively. Our results show that the composition of the reflector in our bilayer structures can shift the wavelength range of the magneto-optical Kerr rotation enhancement. Interpretation and discussions are given.

    Notes: Using resolved fluorescence from a 1Σ+g Rydberg state to the A 1Σ+u state of K2, we have observed the lowest vibrational levels (v'≤12) of the A 1Σ+u state. Levels v'=21 to 62 (well beyond the previously known v'=12 to 18 region) were observed using the polarization optical–optical double resonance technique. Molecular constants and a Rydberg–Klein–Rees (RKR) potential energy curve based on these constants are given. Franck–Condon factors for the K2, A 1∑+u–X 1∑+g system based on this new A 1Σ+u potential are also given.
