Crossing the Dripline to 11N Using Elastic Resonance Scattering
The level structure of the unbound nucleus 11N has been studied by 10C+p
elastic resonance scattering in inverse geometry with the LISE3 spectrometer at
GANIL, using a 10C beam with an energy of 9.0 MeV/u. An additional measurement
was done at the A1200 spectrometer at MSU. The excitation function above the
10C+p threshold has been determined up to 5 MeV. A potential-model analysis
revealed three resonance states at energies 1.27 (+0.18-0.05) MeV (Gamma=1.44
+-0.2 MeV), 2.01(+0.15-0.05) MeV, (Gamma=0.84 +-$0.2 MeV) and 3.75(+-0.05) MeV,
(Gamma=0.60 +-0.05 MeV) with the spin-parity assignments I(pi) =1/2+, 1/2- and
5/2+, respectively. Hence, 11N is shown to have a ground state parity inversion
completely analogous to its mirror partner, 11Be. A narrow resonance in the
excitation function at 4.33 (+-0.05) MeV was also observed and assigned
spin-parity 3/2-.Comment: 14 pages, 9 figures, twocolumn Accepted for publication in PR
Lattice QCD at finite temperature: a status report
Karsch F. Lattice QCD at finite temperature: a status report. Zeitschrift für Physik, C: Particles and Fields. 1988;38(1-2):147-155.We analyze the status of numerical simulation of QCD at finite temperature. Emphasis is put on quantitative predictions emerging from lattice calculations that may be tested in heavy ion experiments. Recent results on the chiral phase transition, thermodynamics of the quark gluon plasma phase and various screening lengths are discussed.

Investigation of the alpha-cluster structure of Ne-22 and Mg-22
10 pages, 2 tables, 10 figures.--PACS nrs.: 21.10.-k; 24.30.-v; 27.30.+tAn excitation function for resonance elastic scattering of alpha particles on O-18 and Ne-18 was measured using the method of inverse geometry with a very thick target. Spectroscopic information was obtained for 23 levels in the excitation energy region from 11.9 to 13.7 MeV in Ne-22. Twelve of them are new. General features of a-cluster bands in Ne-22 are analyzed in the framework of the potential model with a deep potential well. Predictions for the 11(-) level in Ne-22, as well as for the isotopic shift of the cluster levels in Mg-22, are given. Evidence is presented that new perspectives on the study of nuclear structure and nuclear spectroscopy can be obtained in complimentary measurements of alpha-cluster states in mirror Nnot equalZ nuclei.This work was supported by NSF Grant Nos.

High-frequency response of polymeric light-emitting diodes
The frequency dependence of alternating-current polymeric light-emitting diodes has been studied. Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of poly(3-hexylthiophene) have been used as the active emitting material sandwiched between LB films of emeraldine base polyaniline to form the device. We have shown that by reducing the thickness of the emitting layer using the LB deposition technique, one can increase the high-frequency operating limit of the device. From the -3 dB frequency, we have calculated the carrier mobility in the emitting polymer layer, and compared it with the Poole-Frenkel model. The electroluminescence and photoluminescence spectra have been studied
Frequency response of molecularly thin alternating current light-emitting diodes
The frequency response of molecularly thin alternating-current polymeric light-emitting diodes has been studied. Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (PHT) were used as the active emitting material and the device was formed by sandwiching PHT films between LB films of emeraldine base polyaniline. As a step towards molecular electronic devices, we have shown that even two molecular layers of PHT ( ≈ 6 nm) are sufficient for light emission. The high frequency operation limit of the device has been discussed in terms of a charge accumulation process at the polymer-polymer interface. The electroluminescence (EL) spectra of different structures have been compared with corresponding photoluminescence spectra. A significant blueshift in EL has been observed in thinner structures and its origin has been discussed
Electric field redistribution and electroluminescence response time in polymeric light-emitting diodes
The electric field redistribution due to injected and trapped charge carriers in Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of
poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) sandwiched between indium tin oxide and aluminum (Al) electrodes as function of applied voltage
has been studied using charge collection measurements by the time-of-flight technique. For μ tE<d (the drift distance
shorter than the interelectrode distance) the amount of the collected photocharge is a function of electric field near the Al electrode
and has been used to probe the time evolution of it. The response time for the field to redistribute inside the P3HT LB film was
found to be of the order of 5-200 μs, in good agreement with the delay time observed in time-resolved electroluminescence
measurements in light-emitting diodes (LED) of similar LB films. We suggest a model for the response times in organic LEDs
based on these results
