Its structural stability, elastic properties, mechanical properties and electronic structure are systematically investigated. The results show that (3,0)-BU2N is a superhard material with a direct bandgap. However, its similar structures, (3,0)-C and (3,0)-BN are indirect semiconductors. Strikingly, (3,0)-C is harder than diamond. We also simulate the x-ray diffraction of (3,0)-BC2N to support future experimental investigations. In addition, our study shows that the transition from (3,03 CNTS and BNNTs to (3,0)-BC2N is irreversible.展开更多

Compared to the linearly polarized laser field, the employed near circularly polarized laser field imposes a more strict selection rule for the transition via resonant excitation, and therefore we can selectively enhance the resonant ATI through certain atomic Rydberg states. Our results show the self-reference ionization delay, which is determined from the difference between the measured streaking angles for nonadiabatic ATI via the 4 f and 5 f Rydberg states, is 45.6 as. Our method provides an accessible route to highlight the role of resonant transition between selected states, which will pave the way for fully understanding the ionization dynamics toward manipulating electron motion as well as reaction in an ultrafast time scale.展开更多
