Influence of Focused Pulsed Laser Radiation on the Properties of Amorphous FeSi6B16 Metal Alloy
摘要： The effect of focused pulsed laser radiation (number of pulses and power density) on an amorphous FeSi6B16 metal film is studied. The states of the alloy before and after laser irradiation are analyzed using methods of atomic force microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and microhardness measurements. Focused laser radiation in any exposure mode is established to cause high-temperature heating of the surface of an amorphous alloy in the irradiation zone. The result of such heating is melting of the material surface and propagation of the heat wave front from the strongly heated surface to its inner layers, which induces the redistribution of elements in the Fe–Si–B system, a change in the structure, and an increase in the microhardness.

Mechanisms of LiF Interlayer Enhancements of Perovskite Light-Emitting Diodes
摘要： The use of LiF as a thin interlayer between the electron transport layer and cathode has played a pivotal role in remarkable advances in perovskite LEDs (PeLEDs); however, the mechanism behind the effect of LiF remains to be fully understood. Here we report a combined experimental and computational study from which we ascribe the benefits of a LiF interlayer to the migration of dissociated Li into the cathode and dissociated F into the anode. Electronic device simulations reveal that the former improves electron injection by lowering the Schottky barrier height, while the latter reduces the barrier width. These reduce turn-on voltage and improve current density and charge balance in LEDs. We fabricate PeLEDs with and without the LiF interlayer and link these materials and electronic phenomena to the device light-current-voltage characteristics. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy obtained in sputter profiling of PeLEDs corroborates the dissociation of LiF.

Fundamental understanding of chemical processes in extreme ultraviolet resist materials
摘要： New photoresists are needed to advance extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography. The tailored design of efficient photoresists is enabled by a fundamental understanding of EUV induced chemistry. Processes that occur in the resist film after absorption of an EUV photon are discussed, and a new approach to study these processes on a fundamental level is described. The processes of photoabsorption, electron emission, and molecular fragmentation were studied experimentally in the gas-phase on analogs of the monomer units employed in chemically amplified EUV resists. To demonstrate the dependence of the EUV absorption cross section on selective light harvesting substituents, halogenated methylphenols were characterized employing the following techniques. Photoelectron spectroscopy was utilized to investigate kinetic energies and yield of electrons emitted by a molecule. The emission of Auger electrons was detected following photoionization in the case of iodo-methylphenol. Mass-spectrometry was used to deduce the molecular fragmentation pathways following electron emission and atomic relaxation. To gain insight on the interaction of emitted electrons with neutral molecules in a condensed film, the fragmentation pattern of neutral gas-phase molecules, interacting with an electron beam, was studied and observed to be similar to EUV photon fragmentation. Below the ionization threshold, electrons were confirmed to dissociate iodo-methylphenol by resonant electron attachment.

Thermal degradation behavior of self-assembled monolayer surfactant on silicon substrate
摘要： In nanoimprint lithography, a release agent on the mold surface is usually necessary for easy demolding between the mold and the imprinted (thermal) resist. In this work, the thermal stability of 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyltrichlorosilane (FDTS) monolayers is studied using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The FDTS monolayers are deposited on Si (100) substrates via vapor phase reactions. Significant fluorine desorption of the monolayers is observed for samples annealed at 250 and 300 °C in air. The fluorine coverage decreases as a function of annealing time at a given annealing temperature. The desorption is proposed to be dependent on the monolayer packing details and may be influenced by the intermolecular heat transfer. Removal of the CF3 groups is found to be faster than that of the CF2 group as evidenced by the CF2/CF3 peak area ratios that increase with the annealing time. Sessile drop water contact angle and fluorine coverage evolution results show that the estimated useful coating lifetime is 180 min when the samples are annealed at 300 °C and ～560 min when annealed at 250 °C. The peak position of the binding energy of the F 1s spectral line is related to the monolayer fluorine coverage and it may be a result of the interactions between the molecular chain and the negatively charged silicon substrate. Furthermore, nearly no chain desorption is detected for samples annealed in an inert environment, which may be attributed to the elimination of reactive oxygen and moisture molecules. The thermal degradation behaviors in ambient and inert atmosphere provide useful information for designing a nanoimprint process for the commercial manufacturing of polymeric microstructure and nanostructure.

Ultrathin films of L1 <sub/>0</sub> -MnAl on GaAs (001): A hard magnetic MnAl layer onto a soft Mn-Ga-As-Al interface
摘要： Ferromagnetic MnAl (L10-MnAl phase) ultrathin films with thickness varying from 1 to 5 nm have been epitaxially grown on a GaAs (001) substrate. A coercivity above 8 kOe has been obtained with no need of a buffer layer by tuning the sample preparation and the growth parameters. Surface and interface analysis carried out by in situ characterization techniques (x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and low energy electron diffraction), available in the molecular beam epitaxy chamber, has shown the formation of a ferromagnetic interface consisting of Mn-Ga-As-Al, which contribution competes with the MnAl alloyed film. The appearance of this interface provides important information to understand the growth mechanism of MnAl-based films reported in the literature.

Crystalline structure, electronic and lattice-dynamics properties of NbTe2
摘要： Layered-structure materials are currently relevant given their quasi-2D nature. Knowledge of their physical properties is currently of major interest. Niobium ditelluride possesses a monoclinic layered-structure with a distortion in the tellurium planes. This structural complexity has hindered the determination of its fundamental physical properties. In this work, NbTe2 crystals were used to elucidate its structural, compositional, electronic and vibrational properties. These findings have been compared with calculations based on density functional theory. The chemical composition and elemental distribution at the nanoscale were obtained through atom probe tomography. Ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy allowed the first determination of the work function of NbTe2. Its high value, 5.32 eV, and chemical stability allow foreseeing applications such as contact in optoelectronics. Raman spectra were obtained using different excitation laser lines: 488, 633, and 785 nm. The vibrational frequencies were in agreement with those determined through density functional theory. It was possible to detect a theoretically-predicted, low-frequency, low-intensity Raman active mode not previously observed. The dispersion curves and electronic band structure were calculated, along with their corresponding density of states. The electrical properties, as well as a pseudo-gap in the density of states around the Fermi energy are characteristics proper of a semi metal.

The effect of Zn3N2 phase decomposition on the properties of highly-doped ZnO: Al, N films
摘要： Study of Al-N simultaneous doping and thermal annealing influence on the properties of ZnO films is very important for achievement as p-type conductivity in the films as for improvement the performance of ZnO-based ultraviolet detectors. Highly-doped ZnO:Al,N films containing the Zn3N2 phase (ZnO:Al,N-Zn3N2) were grown on Si substrates by magnetron sputtering using a layer-by-layer growth technique. Our work presents a comparative study of the structure, optical and electronic properties of highly-doped as-grown and annealed ZnO:Al,N films. It was shown that the thermal annealing of ZnO:Al,N-Zn3N2 film at atmospheric conditions allows to decompose the Zn3N2 phase. The features of this phenomena on the properties of ZnO:Al,N films were investigated and discussed in detail by using X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, Raman scattering, photoluminescence, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray emission spectroscopy.

The Oscillatory Photoelectron Signal of <i>N</i> -Methylmorpholine as a Test Case for the Algebraic-Diagrammatic Construction Method of Second Order
摘要： Motivated by recent progress in the application of time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (TRPES) to molecular Rydberg states, we report herein a detailed assessment of the performance of the second-order algebraic diagrammatic construction (ADC(2)) method in the simulation of their TRPES spectra. As the test case, we employ the tertiary aliphatic amine N -methylmorpholine (NMM), which is notable for the fact that the signal of its 3s state exhibits long-lived oscillations along the electron binding energy axis. The relaxation process of photoexcited NMM is simulated via the Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics method, and the resulting TRPES spectrum is generated basing on ionization energies and approximate Dyson orbital norms calculated with the continuum orbital technique. On the whole, the simulated TRPES spectrum achieves satisfactory agreement with experiment, which suggests that the ADC(2) method provides a realistic description of the potential energy surfaces of the relevant excited and ionized states. In particular, the simulations reproduce the ?ne oscillatory structure of the signal of the 3s state, and provide evidence to the e?ect that it results from a coherent vibrational wavepacket evolving along the deformation modes of the six-membered ring. However, it is found that ADC(2) underestimates of electron binding energies by up to a few tenths of an electronvolt. The case of NMM demonstrates the usefulness of ADC(2) as a tool to aid the interpretation of the TRPES spectra of large organic molecules.

Spectral analysis of Miracle Moringa tree leaves using X-ray photoelectron, laser induced breakdown and inductively coupled plasma -optical emission spectroscopic techniques
摘要： The antioxidant Moringa oleifera (a medicinal plant) leaves (MOLs) containing diverse nutrients are highly beneficial for the human health. The MOLs upon consumption can lower the blood sugar, cure the heart diseases, and reduce the inflammation. In this perception, the “primary nutrients contents” in the dry MOLs (pellet samples) were evaluated for the first time using the XPS, LIBS and ICP-OES techniques. The XPS analysis of the MOLs showed the presence of vital elements like calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), manganese (Mn), copper (Cu), phosphorous (P), sulfur (S) and zinc (Zn). The LIBS analyses of the MOLs revealed the atomic and ionic spectral lines corresponding to the essential nutrients such as the Ca, Na, K, Fe, Mg, Mn, Cu, P, S and Zn. The calibration free LIBS algorithm (CF-LIBSA) was developed to quantify the content of each element in the dry MOLs. In addition, the LIBS results were validated by the analysis using ICP-OES standard analytical technique. The elemental contents in the MOLs obtained from the CF-LIBS analyses were counter verified by the ICP-OES results. Present results are highly valuable for the development of a traditional herbal medicine using the miracle MOLs.

Physicala??Chemical Properties of Self-Assembled Structures in Solution of Zinc Phthalocyanine and Bis-3-pentyl-PTCDI Derivative
摘要： For the first time, in this work, we succeed in synthesizing in solution a novel supramolecular self-assembled zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) and N,N′-bis(3-pentyl)-perylene-3,4,9,10-bis(dicarboximide) (bis-3-pentyl-PTCDI) system with improved light absorption and phosphorescence lifetime of the charge separated states up to 2.5 ms. Moreover, the structural and optical properties of undoped and doped with iodine ZnPc thin films were investigated by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman analysis, and UV?vis spectroscopy. Analysis of ZnPc:I2:bis-3-pentyl-PTCDI blend in a 2:1 ratio shows that sandwich complexes between them result in improved bulk properties as compared to those of the single-component systems.
