Electronic structure of ZnO nanorods studied by angle-dependent x-ray absorption spectroscopy and scanning photoelectron microscopy
[[abstract]]Angle-dependent x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) and scanning photoelectron microscopy measurements were performed to differentiate local electronic structures at the tips and sidewalls of highly aligned ZnO nanorods. The overall intensity of the O K-edge XANES spectra is greatly enhanced for small photon incident angles. In contrast, the overall intensity of the Zn K-edge XANES is much less sensitive to the photon incident angle. Both valence-band photoemission and O K-edge XANES spectra show substantial enhancement of O 2p derived states near the valence band maximum and conduction band minimum, respectively. The spatially resolved Zn 3d core level spectra from tip and sidewall regions show the lack of chemical shift. All the results consistently suggest that the tip surfaces of the highly aligned ZnO nanorods are terminated by O ions and the nanorods are oriented in the [0001¯] direction. © 2004 American Institute of Physics.[[notice]]補正完畢[[booktype]]紙本[[booktype]]電子
Electronic structure of the carbon nanotube tips studied by x-ray-absorption spectroscopy and scanning photoelectron microscopy
[[abstract]]Angle-dependent x-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) and scanning photoelectron microscopy (SPEM) measurements have been performed to differentiate local electronic structures of the tips and sidewalls of highly aligned carbon nanotubes. The intensities of both π∗- and σ∗-band C K-edge XANES features are found to be significantly enhanced at the tip. SPEM results also show that the tips have a larger density of states and a higher C 1s binding energy than those of sidewalls. The increase of the tip XANES and SPEM intensities are quite uniform over an energy range wider than 10 eV in contrast to earlier finding that the enhancement is only near the Fermi level.[[booktype]]紙本[[booktype]]電子
Diameter dependence of the electronic structure of ZnO nanorods determined by x-ray absorption spectroscopy and scanning photoelectron microscopy
[[abstract]]O K-, Zn L3, and K-edges x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectra and scanning photoelectron microscopy (SPEM) spectra were obtained for ZnO nanorods with various diameters. The analysis of the XANES spectra revealed increased numbers of O 2p and Zn 4p unoccupied states with the downsizing of the nanorods, which reflects the enhancement of surface states when the diameter is decreased. Valence-band photoemission spectra show a significant narrowing of the valence band for the 45 nm diameter nanorod. The Zn 3d intensities in the Zn 3d SPEM spectra are drastically diminished for all nanorods as compared to the ZnO reference film, which can be interpreted as a reduction in density of itinerant final states or in transition probability.[[notice]]補正完畢[[incitationindex]]SCI[[booktype]]紙
Angle-dependent x-ray absorption spectroscopy study of Zn-doped GaN
[[abstract]]As-grown and Zn-implanted wurtzite GaN samples have been studied by angle-dependent x-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) measurements at the N and Ga K-edges and the Ga L3-edge. The angle dependence of the XANES spectra shows that the Ga–N bonds lying in the bilayer have lower energies than bonds along the c-axis, which can be attributed to the polar nature of the GaN film. The comparison of the Ga L3-edge XANES spectra of as-grown and Zn-doped GaN reveals significant dopant induced enhancement of near-edge Ga d-derived states. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.[[journaltype]]國外[[incitationindex]]SCI[[booktype]]紙本[[countrycodes]]US
Decoherent Scattering of Light Particles in a D-Brane Background
We discuss the scattering of two light particles in a D-brane background. It
is known that, if one light particle strikes the D brane at small impact
parameter, quantum recoil effects induce entanglement entropy in both the
excited D brane and the scattered particle. In this paper we compute the
asymptotic `out' state of a second light particle scattering off the D brane at
large impact parameter, showing that it also becomes mixed as a consequence of
quantum D-brane recoil effects. We interpret this as a non-factorizing
contribution to the superscattering operator S-dollar for the two light
particles in a Liouville D-brane background, that appears when quantum D-brane
excitations are taken into account.Comment: 18 pages LATEX, one figure (incorporated
On the unitarity of higher-dervative and nonlocal theories
We consider two simple models of higher-derivative and nonlocal quantu
systems.It is shown that, contrary to some claims found in literature, they can
be made unitary.Comment: 8 pages, no figure
