Multiphase Fe-oxide thin films are fabricated on glass substrates by a facing-target sputtering tech- nique. X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy reveal that Fe, Fe3BO4, γ -Fe2BO3B and FeO coexist in the films. High resolution transmission electron microscopy shows the well-defined colum- nar grain structure with the unoxidized Fe as the core and iron-oxide as the shell. The low-field positive and high-field negative magnetoresistances coexist in such a system at room temperature, which can be explained by considering a shell/core model. Nonlinear current-voltage curve and photovoltaic effect further confirm the tunneling-type conduction.
We investigate the diffusion interaction and quantitative analysis of zinc dialkyldithiophosphate （ZDDP） mixed with lube base oil （LBO） at different concentrations using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy （THzTDS）.When the concentration exceeds 6.78%,the characteristic absorption peaks exhibit significantly shift,and the absorption coefficient peak value is nonlinear against concentration.Moreover,the absorption coefficients of mixed samples follow the Beer＇s law at a concentration below 6.78%.The quantitative analysis enables a strategy for monitoring the formulation of lubricating oil in real time
We report the fast lateral photovoltaic effect in pure congruent LiNbO3 crystal induced by pulsed laser and continuous wave laser with wavelengths of 355, 532, and 1064 nm. A typical ultrafast photovoltage can be observed on the surface perpendicular to the c axis, With the rise time of 1.5 ns and the full-width at half-maximum of 1-2 ns, when the laser pulse inhomogeneously irradiates on the crystal. The peak open-circuit photovoltages show a linear dependence on the incident laser intensities. The mechanism of the photovoltaic characteristics is proposed.
Laser-induced ultrafast photovoltaic effect is observed in LaSrAlO4 single crystal at ambient temperature without any applied bias. An open-circuit photovoltage is obtained when the wafer is irradiated by a 248-nm-KrF laser pulse of 20 ns duration. The response time and full width at half maximum of the photovoltage pulse are 6 ns and 19 ns, respectively, indicating that LaSrAlO4 single crystal has potential application in ultraviolet detector.
