    Notes: Single-chamber in situ laser processing of high-Tc YBa2Cu3O7−δ film on stainless steel (302) substrates with yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) buffer layers, has been carried out using a multitarget deposition system. YSZ and YBa2Cu3O7−δ films were deposited sequentially by KrF excimer laser (λ=248 nm) at substrate temperature of 650 °C. The films were characterized by x-ray diffraction, four point probe ac electrical resistivity, scanning electron microscopy and Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) techniques. Due to the matching of the thermal expansion coefficient of YSZ with stainless steel and its diffusion barrier characteristics, good quality high-Tc films have been grown on stainless steel substrates with superconducting transition temperature, Tc (onset), of 92 K and Tco (zero resistivity temperature) of 84 K. AES depth profiling indicated little interdiffusion of Fe across the interface of YSZ and stainless steel. A laser evaporation method was used for patterning the YBa2Cu3O7−δ films and critical current density, Jc, was measured to be ∼5×104 Acm−2 at 40 K. It was observed that the zero resistivity temperature significantly changed with the variation of buffer layer thickness, buffer layer processing temperature, and ambient oxygen partial pressure during the deposition of YBa2Cu3O7−δ.

    Notes: Molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations are used to examine the effect on the structural properties of heterogeneous SF6–(Ar)n and SF6–(Kr)n clusters, and on the melting behavior of heterogeneous SF6–(Ar)n and homogeneous (Ar)13 and (Kr)13 clusters, of including the three-body Axilrod–Teller–Muto triple–dipole dispersion energies in the total potential energy surface governing the dynamics of the system. The behavior of these systems is governed by potentials constructed from the best available two-body interactions, and from accurate constrained dipole oscillator strength values for the triple–dipole dispersion energy coefficients reported here for the first time. The structural studies show that (virtually) all isomers are destablized by inclusion of the three-body terms, with the "stacked'' or "nonwetting'' structures being destablized relatively more than isomeric "monolayer'' or "wetting'' structures. However, the qualitative trends in relative stability are unchanged; in particular, the preference for the SF6 to be fully solvated in larger clusters formed with Ar, but to lie on the surface of larger clusters formed with Kr, remains unchanged. In contrast, the melting temperatures of the stacked and monolayer isomers of the heterogeneous SF6–(Ar)12 cluster undergo substantial change on inclusion of the three-body terms, the former dropping from ca. 30 to 22 K and the latter from 10 to 6 K. The melting temperatures of the homogeneous (Ar)13 and (Kr)13 icosahedral isomers also decreased on inclusion of the three-body interactions, and the resulting values are quite different than those obtained using the commonly accepted "effective'' two-body LJ(12,6) pair potentials for these systems.

    Notes: Good quality superconducting YBa2Cu3O7−δ thin films have been grown on nickel-based superalloy, viz., Hastelloy with yttria-stabilized zirconia buffer layers employing a single chamber in situ pulsed laser deposition process. YBa2Cu3O7−δ films were found to be textured with c axis perpendicular to the substrate. A plot of normalized resistance against temperature exhibited a smooth metallic behavior followed by an onset superconducting transition at 92 K with the zero resistance temperature (Tc0) of 86 K. Critical current density for these films at 77 K was ∼7000 A cm−2 and critical current (Ic) was observed to be proportional to (1 − T/Tc0)1.4.

    Notes: We have prepared highly oriented bismuth cuprate thin films (c-axis textured) on yttria-stabilized zirconia (100) YS-ZrO2 substrates at 650 °C by pulsed excimer laser ablation in a 200 mTorr oxygen ambient. The films were annealed in oxygen and nitrogen atmospheres to study the effect on zero-resistance transition temperature (Tc0). Thin films deposited at 650 °C exhibited a Tc0 of 68 K with onset at 110 K. Post-annealing for 1 h at 400 °C in oxygen improved the Tc0 to 82 K, while the onset remained the same. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Rutherford backscattering channeling studies were performed on these films for correlations between crystal structure, microstructure, and superconducting properties. X-ray diffraction patterns indicated a 2212 type phase with a=5.39 A(ring) and c=30.76 A(ring); preferential orientation of the c axis perpendicular to the substrate was observed. The lattice parameters and x-ray diffraction patterns were found to be invariant with annealing treatments that improved Tc0 from 68 to 82 K.

    Notes: We have prepared high quality superconducting Y1Ba2Cu3O7−δ (YBCO) thin films on hastelloy (C) with titanium nitride (TiN) buffer layers. The hastelloy (C) is a nickel based superalloy with excellent high-temperature properties and corrosion resistance. The superconducting and TiN buffer layers were deposited sequentially at 600 °C using pulsed excimer laser irradiation of the respective targets. TiN has been suitably chosen owing to matching of thermal expansion coefficient (∼8.0–9.0×10−6/K) with hastelloy (∼9.0×10−6/K) and YBCO (∼12–13×10−6/K). X-ray diffraction, four point ac electrical resistivity and scanning electron microscope studies were performed on these films for correlations between crystal structure, microstructure, and superconducting properties. Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) was used to determine the extent of interdiffusion in metal-TiN and TiN-Y1Ba2Cu3O7−δ interfaces. These films exhibited a characteristic metallic conductivity followed by an onset of superconductivity at 91 K with a zero resistance temperature (Tco) of 85 K. Critical current density (Jc) for these films (77 K and zero magnetic field) was determined to be ∼9.0×104 A/cm2 for thin films on metallic substrates.

    Notes: We have prepared high-quality c-axis oriented superconducting YBa2Cu3O7−δ thin films on Si (100) substrates with CoSi2 buffer layers by in situ pulsed laser ablation processing. The films were characterized by x-ray diffraction, four-point ac electrical resistivity, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. YBa2Cu3O7−δ films were found to be textured with c axis perpendicular to the substrate. A plot of normalized resistance against temperature exhibited a metallic behavior followed by an onset superconducting transition at 91 K with zero resistance temperature (Tc0) of 83 K. Cross-sectioned TEM results showed quite smooth interface between CoSi2 and Si with little interdiffusion; however, a reacted zone was observed between CoSi2 and YBa2Cu3O7−δ layers.

    Notes: Constrained anisotropic dipole oscillator strength techniques are used to obtain reliable values for a wide range of anisotropic and isotropic dipole properties of O2, including the dipole–dipole dispersion energy coefficients for the interaction of O2 with O2, H2, N2, CO, He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe. Some of the anisotropic constraints required for our calculations are obtained via dipole sum rules from ab initio, multireference configuration interaction (CI) wave functions for the ground state of O2. The individual dipole properties of O2 considered include the dipole oscillator strength sums Sk, k=2,1,0(−1/2)−2,−3,−4,..., the logarithmic dipole sums Lk and mean excitation energies Ik, k=2(−1)−2, and, as a function of wavelength, the dynamic polarizability and its anisotropy, the total depolarization ratio, the Rayleigh scattering cross section, and the Verdet constant. Our constrained dipole oscillator strength results are often the only reliable, and sometimes the only available, ones for many of the properties and dispersion energies considered. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have used the method of coherent phase modulation, first proposed by Brumer and Shapiro for controlling the rates of chemical reactions, to measure the refractive index of a gas in the vacuum ultraviolet. In these experiments we populated a Rydberg state of HCl or CO by simultaneous absorption of one VUV photon and three UV photons. Molecular ions were generated by absorption of an additional UV photon and detected with a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. The phase difference for the UV and VUV beams was altered by passing them through a cell containing either H2 or Ar. By varying the pressure in the cell we could control this phase difference and thereby modulate the ion signal. From the modulation frequency of the signal it was possible to determine the difference between the refractive indices of the gas at the UV and VUV wavelengths. Using reliable refractive indices in the UV, we extracted from our data values for the VUV indices. These values are in quantitative agreement with a calculation that uses dipole oscillator strengths constructed using constrained oscillator strength methods, taking into account the dispersion resulting from individual rotational transitions. The experimental method can be used very close to an optical transition of the refractive medium, provided that the refractive index does not vary appreciably across the bandwidth of the VUV laser.

    Notes: Over the last ten years scores of methodologies have emerged in management science/operations research/statistics that employ techniques such as mathematical programming, simulation, artificial intelligence, and clustering to convert a flexible manufacturing system into a cellular one. Based on a real-life case that involved over 1,000 components and 3,000 operations, related to a world-class furniture manufacturing company, finds that the somewhat outdated King's algorithm, after partial linearization, works as well as the other sophisticated techniques in terms of speed and problem size. Drives home the point that a shift to cellular configuration from functional layout results in across the board savings in material movement, setup times, hilo moves, WIP, work area and in manufacturing leadtime. The company under study benefited to the tune of $164,000 per year from switch to single cell. The projected savings are expected to exceed $700,000 per year when the reconfiguration is completed.
