Diffusion behavior of delta-doped Si in InAlAs/InP heterostructures
Diffusion behavior of delta-doped Si in InAlAs and InP was studied by using secondary ion mass spectroscopy. A significant broadening of the profile due to postgrowth annealing was observed in In0.52Al0.48As. In contrast, the depth profile of delta-doped Si in InP was scarcely changed by annealing. This indicates that the diffusion coefficient of delta-doped Si in InP is much smaller than that in In0.52Al0.48As. Suppression of Si diffusion by using a delta-doped InP layer as the carrier supply layer (CSL) improves the thermal stability of the InP-HEMT structures
Detection of CO(J=1-0) Emission from Barred Spiral Galaxies at z~0.1
We present the results of CO (J=1-0) observations towards nine barred spiral
galaxies at z=0.08-0.25 using the 45-m telescope at Nobeyama Radio Observatory
(NRO). This survey is the first one specialized for barred spiral galaxies in
this redshift range. We detected CO emission from six out of nine galaxies,
whose CO luminosity (L_CO') ranges (1.09-10.8)\times10^9 K km s^{-1} pc^2.
These are the infrared (IR) dimmest galaxies that have ever been detected in CO
at z~0.1 to date. They follow the L_CO'-L_IR relation among local spiral
galaxies, Luminous Infrared Galaxies (LIRGs), Ultra-Luminous Infrared Galaxies
(ULIRGs) and Sub-millimeter Galaxies (SMGs). Their L_CO' and L_IR are higher
than that of local spiral galaxies which have been detected in CO so far, and
L_IR/L'_CO, which is a measure of star formation efficiency, is comparable to
or slightly higher than that of local ones. This result suggests that these
galaxies are forming stars more actively than local spirals galaxies simply
because they have more fuel.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures, accepted for publication in PAS
High Field Characteristics of Critical Current Densities in High-T_c Superconducting Films and Wires(High Field Superconductors)
High-T_c superconductors have the potential to impact many frontier subjects. In Y- and Bi-system oxide superconductors, high field superconducting characteristics have been investigated from the aspect directed toward practical application. Irreversibility lines, transport current properties and the critical surfaces for Y-and Bi-system high-T_c superconducting films and wires are presented in high fields up to 30 T
