This technique gives higher analysis sensitivity under the same sample ablation in comparison with single pulse （SP） LIBS. It is useful for high sensitive element mieroanalvsis of precious samples.展开更多

The calculations based on the Tsuneyuki-Tsukada Aoki Matsui （TTAM） and Flikkema- Bromley （FB） potentials give the same result： n = 4 and n = 8 are the magic numbers in the virtual （SiO2）nO2 cluster sequence. This conclusion is in agreement with the experimental observation on the [（SiO2）nO2H3]- cluster sequence. The comparison of the present results with those from the density-functional-theory calculations on （SiO2）nO2H4 shows that addition of II atoms to the O terminals of （SiO2）nO2 clusters to form the complex （SiO2）nO2H4 clusters has only minor influence on the relative energies and the structures of different isomers. This means that the magic behaviour of the dusters [（SiO2）nO2H3]^- （n=4,8） observed in our previous experiment is originated from the stability of the cluster skeletons （SiO2）nO2 （n = 4, 8） .展开更多

The 1064 nm output of an acoustooptically Q-switched Nd:YAG laser operated at a pulse repetition rate of 1 kHz was utilized to ablate copper alloy and to form original plasma, spark-discharge was applied to further breakdown the ablated samples and enhance the emission of the laser-induced plasma. A compact multichannel fiber spectrometer was used to analyze the plasma emission under nongated operation mode. Under the assistance of high repetition rate spark discharge, the plasma emission was able to be improved significantly. The determined limits of the detection of lead and aluminum were 15.5 ppm and 1.9 ppm by HRR LA-SIBS, respectively, which were 11 and 6 folds better than that determined by HRR LIBS under the same laser-ablation condition. This work demonstrates the feasibility of using fiber spectrometer to analyze plasma emission under non-gated operation mode and the possibility of building a portable HRR LA-SIBS system for rapid elemental analysis of copper alloys and other solid samples.展开更多

The relationship between the structure and ferroelectric property of the films was investigated, so as to explore the possibility of enhancing ferroelectric polarization by controlling the preferred orientation. The structural characterization indicated that the large growth rate and high oxygen background pressure were both favorable for the growth of non-c-axis oriented grains in the Bi_4Ti_3O_（12） thin films. The films with high fractions of a-axis and random orientations, i e, f（a-sxis） = 28.3% and f（random） = 69.6%, could be obtained at the deposition temperature of 973 K, oxygen partial pressure of 15 Pa and laser fluence of 4.6 J/cm^2, respectively. It was also noted that the variation of ferroelectric polarization was in accordance with the evolution non-c-axis orientation. A large value of remanent polarization（2 Pr = 35.5 μC/cm^2） was obtained for the Bi_4Ti_3O_（12） thin films with significant non-c-axis orientation, even higher than that of rare-earth-doped Bi_4Ti_3O_（12） films.展开更多
