Growth and optical property of zinc oxide thornballs

A new microstructure, thornball, of zinc oxide (ZnO) was synthesized by a very simple solid vapor deposition process under lead oxide (PbO) atmosphere. The microthornballs consist of numerous needles, which extend outwards in all directions symmetrically. They have dimensions of 120 μm in diameter, while the average diameter of the needles is about 100-200 nm. The needles on the balls grow along the 〈0 0 0 1〉 orientation and have gradient compositions along radial. Control experiments proved that PbO played an important role in the growth. Additionally, photoluminescence property was observed and provided the evidence that PbO did not deteriorate the optical properties of ZnO thornballs. This kind of microstructures has potential applications in the field of photochemical catalysis.

Optical properties of Nd-doped Ca3(VO4)2 single crystal fiber

Optical absorption and photoluminescence of Ca₃(VO₄)₂ single crystal grown by a floating-zone technique and containing Nd³⁺ ions were investigated. High absorption coefficients and broadening of most absorption bands are present at 300 K, while substructures in some of the same bands can be evidenced at 12 K. Most features of measured spectra are characteristic of random occupation of more than a single Ca²⁺ site by the Nd³⁺ ion and of distortions provoked by different charge compensation mechanisms involving oxygen vacancies promotion in the crystal lattice. Nd³⁺ optical properties were studied by using the Judd-Ofelt theory to calculate the spectral parameters relevant for laser applications.     

钇铁石榴石薄膜材料的光吸收谱及Bi,Al掺入对谱的影响研究

采用单离子晶场跃迁模型，拟合出钇铁石榴石（ＹＩＧ）薄膜材料的光吸收谱，与实验谱吻合得较好。从实验和理论上分析了（ＢＩＡＩ）ＹＩＧ 薄膜材料的光吸收谱，结果表明，Ａｌ３＋离子的作用如同稀释剂一样，减小了光吸收，Ｂｉ３＋离子由于其强的自旋轨道耦合作用，增大了跃迁振子强度和跃迁线宽，从而增大了光吸收损耗，在此基础上所作的（ＢｉＡｌ）ＹＩＧ的理论谱与实验谱符合得较好。

Effect of Forming Pressure on the Internal Structure of Alumina Green Bodies Examined with Immersion Liquid Technique

Green bodies prepared by compaction of alumina granules were made transparent by an immersion liquid technique, and the internal structure was characterized with an optical microscope to study the effect of forming pressure on the internal structure. Clear images obtained by the technique provide more detailed information than other existing methods for structures ranging from one to tens of micrometers. Intergranular pores were present between unfractured granules. Their sizes and concentration tended to decrease with increasing forming pressure. However, pores were clearly present even in the green body prepared at 600 MPa. A rod- and needlelike feature was also found and was concluded to correspond to a high-density region. The significance of large pores and high-density regions on processing as well as the details of the technique is discussed.
