    Notes: Abstract In order to study the basic mechanism of polarization enhancement realized by the multitilted foil technique, nuclear polarization of short-lived beta-emitter8B(T1/2=769 ms,I π=2+) was induced. Utilizing up to ten tilted foils, the polarization enhancement was measured as a function of the foil numbers. The observed enhancement for8B was combined with the previous results for12B(I π=1+,T 1/2=20 ms) which has the same atomic configurations but different nuclear spin. Analyzing these results in the framework of the classical vector model, the essential features of the enhancement depending on the nuclear spin was disclosed.

    Notes: Ferromagnetic perpendicularly magnetized epitaxial thin films of τ (Mn,Ni)Al have been successfully grown on AlAs/GaAs heterostructures by molecular beam epitaxy. We have investigated the polar Kerr rotation and magnetization of τ MnAl and (Mn,Ni)Al as a function of Mn and Ni concentration. The largest polar Kerr rotation and remnant magnetization were obtained for Mn0.5Al0.5 thin films with values of 0.16° and 224 emu/cm3, respectively. We observed that the Kerr rotation and magnetization remained constant with Ni additions up to about 12 at. % and subsequently decreased with further Ni additions. We discuss these results and one possible method of enhancing the Kerr rotation.

    Notes: Alkali–metal (K and Cs) promotion for sticking of nitrogen oxide molecule (NO) on Si(100) has been studied using a molecular beam method combined with an Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and a laser ionization spectroscopy [resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI)]. The observed sticking probability S shows a good correlation with alkali coverage, indicating that the alkali promotion is local in nature. The decay of S as a function of NO dose as observed with AES shows an anticorrelation with the evolution of the direct-inelastic scattering intensity as obtained with REMPI. This fact is understood as follows: since the direct-inelastic scattering occurs mostly in a single collision process with the surface, local alkali promotion is realized in a single collision of the incident NO molecule with the alkali–metal adsorbates. The decay of S as a function of NO dose is then analyzed with a reaction cross section. The evaluated reaction cross sections are close to the area of the 2×1 unit cell, and thus the estimated reaction radii are almost equal to but somewhat larger than the covalent radius of a K atom, with a increasing trend with alkali coverage. The alkali promotion is explained in terms of local electron charge transfer from the nonionized alkali adatoms to the affinity level of NO molecules based on the adatom density of state around EF.

    Notes: A large semicylindrical negative ion source, whose dimensions are 34 cm in diameter and 104 cm in length, has been developed. By optimizing a chamber depth and a filter strength, a H− current of 650 mA (7.7 mA/cm2) was obtained at an arc condition of 1.3 Pa, 70 V, and 1200 A. In order to increase the H− current and to reduce an operating pressure, a small amount of Cs was injected. As a result, the H− current was increased from 550 mA (6.5 mA/cm2) to 850 mA (10 mA/cm2) under an arc power of 70 V×800 A. The most significant feature of the cesium effect was the reduction of the operating pressure. With maintaining the sufficient current of 670 mA (8 mA/cm2), the operating pressure could be lowered to 0.03 Pa. At this pressure, the highest gas efficiency of 20% was achieved.

    Notes: It is demonstrated that a cesium-seeded volume H− ion source can be operated very stably for long pulse durations of up to 24 h. The source consists of a 20 cm cylindrical multicusp plasma generator and a 9 cm × 10 cm multiaperture extractor. By seeding a small amount of cesium, the source has produced 50 keV, 0.5 A, 1000 s H− ion beams with a current density of 14 mA/cm2. The cesium effect lasted for more than 24 h once 100 mg cesium was seeded before operation. Power flow measurement revealed that the heat loading of the ion source was low enough to operate the source in the dc mode.

    Notes: A new interferometer has been developed for the accurate determination of the density of a silicon crystal, in which a single-crystal silicon sphere of nearly perfect geometry is placed in a Fabry–Perot etalon of accurately known plate distance, and the diameters are obtained by measuring the two gaps between the etalon and the adjacent surface of the sphere. A new method is used to measure the sum of the length of the two gaps by scanning the etalon against the sphere. Two wavelengths, 633 nm from a frequency-stabilized He–Ne laser and 441 nm from a free-running He–Cd laser, are used to determine the order of interference by applying the method of exact fractions. The diameter of about 94 mm has been measured with a resolution of 0.5 nm. Diameter measurements from uniformly distributed directions have shown that the mean diameter has been determined with a standard deviation of 8.6 nm, corresponding to 0.28 ppm in the volume determination. The total uncertainty of the volume is estimated to be 0.34 ppm. Effects of a thin oxide layer and impurities on the bulk density are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract: Superoxide production by cultured microglia derived from neonatal rat brains and the cytotoxicity of these cells were evaluated. The chemiluminescence (photon counts) detected in the presence of MCLA, a new chemiluminescence probe, was strongly correlated with the microglial cell count. Chemiluminescence observed in this system was confirmed to originate specifically from superoxide produced by activated microglia. Phorbol myristate acetate-stimulated microglia caused a pronounced reduction of PC12h cell numbers in coculture. The addition of superoxide dismutase with catalase or the addition of deferoxamine mesylate inhibited PC12h cell death, suggesting that active oxygen species derived from superoxide generated by the microglia or iron-oxygen complex formation were responsible for the cytotoxicity. These results imply that activated microglia may participate in the progression of the pathologic process in some neurodegenerative disorders.

    Notes: Molecular beam epitaxial (MBE) growth, structural, and electrical properties of novel epitaxial metal/semiconductor heterostructures (MSHs), consisting of monocrystalline CoAl, an intermetallic compound, and AlAs/GaAs III-V semiconductors have been studied. The CoAl with stoichiometric composition has a CsCl-type crystal structure whose lattice constant is very close to half the lattice constant of GaAs and AlAs, hence, it is a good candidate as a constituent metal in epitaxial monocrystalline metal/semiconductor heterostructures. MBE growth of CoAl thin films on AlAs/GaAs, and also semiconductor overgrowth on ultrathin CoAl films, together with structural characterizations by in situ reflection high energy electron diffractions, ex situ x-ray diffractions and cross sectional transmission electron microscopy have been explored. By optimizing the growth parameters and procedures, high quality monocrystalline CoAl/AlAs/GaAs heterostructures with atomically abrupt interfaces have been successfully grown. Furthermore, the electrical properties of such novel heterostructures as Schottky barrier heights of CoAl/AlAs/GaAs MSHs and transport properties in ultrathin buried CoAl films are described.

    Notes: We have studied structural and magnetic properties of epitaxial MnAs thin films with various thicknesses (L=1.0–200 nm) on GaAs substrates. The MnAs thin films were grown at 200–250 °C on an As-rich disordered c(4×4) (001) GaAs surface by molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE). The growth direction of the MnAs was found to be along the [1¯100] axis of the hexagonal unit cell. X-ray spectra of the MnAs at room temperature have two peaks, indicating that the present MBE-grown MnAs films consist of the hexagonal ferromagnetic phase and orthorhombic paramagnetic phase. Magnetization measurements revealed that the MnAs thin films have perfectly square hysteresis characteristics with relatively high remnant magnetization Mr=300–567 emu/cm3 and low coercive field Hc=65–926 Oe, compared with those of epitaxial MnGa and MnAl thin films reported previously.

    Notes: We have studied the correlation length (Λ) of interface roughness in GaAs/AlAs quantum wells (QWs) prepared by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). It is found that the mobility of two-dimensional electrons in very thin selectively doped GaAs/AlAs QW structures is substantially enhanced when the bottom AlAs barrier layer is prepared by alternate beam MBE and/or by the use of superlattice buffer layer below the QW. By measuring the electron concentration dependence of mobility and comparing with the theory of interface roughness scattering, we have found that Λ of the bottom (GaAs-on-AlAs) interface of the QW gets as large as 200–300 A(ring), when prepared by the modified growth technique, which is about three times as large as that (∼70 A(ring)) by conventional MBE.
