Exciton transition and electronic structure of PbMoO4 crystals studied by polarized light

Published in Physica status solidi. B, Basic solid state physics, Vol. 247, No. 2, pp405-410, 2010.Polarized reflectivity spectra of PbMoO4 crystals have been measured using synchrotron radiation up to 20 eV. The optical constants for the crystallographic axes are derived by using a Kramers-Kronig analysis. It is found that the exciton band at 3.6 eV shows a doublet structure with distinct dichroism. X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) and the calculation of the elec-tronic structure by a discrete variational Xα method are also carried out. The calculation shows that the va-lence band and the conduction band are mainly com-posed of the O 2p and Mo 4d states, respectively, and the Pb state contributes appreciably to the top of the valence band and the bottom of the conduction band. The valence-band XPS spectrum of PbMoO4 is com-pared with that of PbWO4, which reveals a remarkable difference between them. This difference reflects dif-ferent magnitude of hybridization of Mo 4d or W 5d state to the valence band. The exciton transition is ex-plained in terms of the cationic Pb 6s → 6p excitation model taking into account the crystal-field splitting and the spin-orbit interaction of Pb 6p state. From a comparison of the doublet structure of the exciton band of PbMoO4 and PbWO4, it is suggested that the electron-hole exchange interaction plays an important role for the exciton transitions in both materials.ArticlePhysica status solidi.

Comparative study of excitonic structures and luminescence properties of Bi4Ge3O12 and Bi12GeO20

Published in physica status solidi (b), Vol. 245, No. 12, pp2733-2736, 2008.Bi12GeO20 crystals have been performed, in addition to relativistic molecular orbital calculations. Both materials consist of the same elements but form different crystal structures. Based on the obtained results, the excitonic reflection structures and luminescence properties of Bi4Ge3O12 and Bi12GeO20 are discussed in comparison with each other.Bookphysica status solidi (b). 245(12):2733-2736 (2008)journal articl

Development of Uniform CdTe Pixel Detectors Based on Caltech ASIC

We have developed a large CdTe pixel detector with dimensions of 23.7 x 13.0 mm and a pixel size of 448 x 448 um^2. The detector is based on recent technologies of an uniform CdTe single crystal, a two-dimensional ASIC, and stud bump-bonding to connect pixel electrodes on the CdTe surface to the ASIC. Good spectra are obtained from 1051 pixels out of total 1056 pixels. When we operate the detector at -50 C, the energy resolution is 0.67 keV and 0.99 keV at 14 keV and 60 keV, respectively. Week-long stability of the detector is confirmed at operating temperatures of both -50 C and -20 C. The detector also shows high uniformity: the peak positions for all pixels agree to within 0.82%, and the average of the energy resolution is 1.04 keV at a temperature of -50 C. When we normalized the peak area by the total counts detected by each pixel, a variation of 2.1 % is obtained.Comment: 11pages, 17figures, accepted for publication in Proc. SPIE 200

Bifurcations associated with sub-synchronous resonance

This paper describes a set of results of detecting nonlinear phenomena appearing in a turbine generator power system with series-capacitor compensation. The analysis was based on the Floquet theory as well as the Hopf bifurcation theorem. After the first Hopf bifurcation, the stable limit cycle bifurcates to a stable torus and an unstable limit cycle which connects to a stable limit cycle by a supercritical torus bifurcation. The stable limit cycle joins with an unstable limit cycle at a cyclic fold bifurcation. This unstable limit cycle is connected to the second Hopf. It has been also numerically demonstrated that such a strange sequence of periodic orbits is created by a q-axis damper winding.published_or_final_versio

Screening for resistance to ripe rot caused by Colletotrichum acutatum in grape germplasm

We screened 235 Vitis and six Muscadinia grapevine cultivars and selections conserved at the National Institute of Fruit Tree Science in Japan for resistance to grape ripe rot, caused by Colletotrichum acutatum Simmonds ex Simmonds. This fungus is insensitive to fungicides such as benomyl, diethofencarb, and iminoctadine-triacetate. We evaluated the disease resistance of nearly ripe berries from each cultivar and selection by artificial inoculation with C. acutatum. Analysis of variance of 20 cultivars and selections indicated that the genotype had a significant effect but that the year had no significant effect on the percentage of diseased berries. Genetic variance explained 85 % of total variance. Each cultivar or selection was classified into one of the following four classes based on its level of resistance to ripe rot: 50 highly resistant (≤ 20 % affected), 37 resistant (21- 40 %), 48 susceptible (41- 60 %), and 106 highly susceptible (≥ 61 %). Of the highly resistant cultivars and selections, we consider a diploid named 676-64 to be promising material for ripe rot resistant table grape breeding.

A Research of Basic Energy Reduction Approach Using PV Power Smoothing EV Storage System and LED Simple Circuit for Create Green Innovation

In general, Light Emitting Diode (LED) is low power consumption, and Photovoltaic (PV) generation of Renewable Energy is effective as energy creation. However, LED applications have a problem of LED Circuit Radiation Noise and PV generation applications have a problem of the Output Power fluctuation in the weather. This paper will be proposed as an especial approach of the energy reduction to contribute to the realization of the low carbon society in the world. In this research, without using Common Mode Choke (CMC) Noise Cut filter, the Radiation Noise reduction result in World Standard Guideline by the selection of a simple circuit of the most effective LED lighting of various power reduction methods have been confirmed by the examinations. Additionally, in order to investigate the lighting specification, the simple Lighting evaluation equipment has been developed. As an energy fluctuation reduction research, the new control system of the PV fluctuation electric power using EV battery charge-discharge electric power that is able to be easily connected with a Power Conditioning System (PCS) input is proposed. A simulation result using the actual PV generator output data is provided to confirm the effectiveness of Simple Moving Average (SMA) method. Moreover, the outline of a new large area monitoring control GIS system for the implementation of the PV generator power prognostication without the weather estimation is introduced.九工大・マレーシアプトラ大学国際合同シンポジウム: International Symposium on Applied Engineering and Sciences (SAES), September 30- October 1, 2013, Universiti Putra Malaysia, Malaysi
