    The effect of residual gas scattering on Ga ion beam patterning of graphene (2015)
    American Institute of Physics (AIP)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-11-24
    Description: The patterning of graphene by a 30 kV Ga + focused ion beam (FIB) is studied by in-situ and ex-situ Raman spectroscopy. It is found that the graphene surrounding the patterned target area can be damaged at remarkably large distances of more than 10  μ m. We show that scattering of the Ga ions in the residual gas of the vacuum system is the main cause of the large range of lateral damage, as the size and shape of the tail of the ion beam were strongly dependent on the system background pressure. The range of the damage was therefore greatly reduced by working at low pressures and limiting the total amount of ions used. This makes FIB patterning a feasible alternative to electron beam lithography as long as residual gas scattering is taken into account.

    Wavelet analysis methods for radiography of multidimensional growth of planar mixing layers (2016)
    American Institute of Physics (AIP)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-07-07
    Description: The counter-propagating shear campaign is examining instability growth and its transition to turbulence in the high-energy-density physics regime using a laser-driven counter-propagating flow platform. In these experiments, we observe consistent complex break-up of and structure growth in a tracer layer placed at the shear flow interface during the instability growth phase. We present a wavelet-transform based analysis technique capable of characterizing the scale- and directionality-resolved average intensity perturbations in static radiographs of the experiment. This technique uses the complete spatial information available in each radiograph to describe the structure evolution. We designed this analysis technique to generate a two-dimensional power spectrum for each radiograph from which we can recover information about structure widths, amplitudes, and orientations. The evolution of the distribution of power in the spectra for an experimental series is a potential metric for quantifying the structure size evolution as well as a system’s evolution towards isotropy.

    A generalization of the Drude-Smith formula for magneto-optical conductivities in Faraday geometry (2016)
    American Institute of Physics (AIP)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-07-01
    Description: In this study, we generalize the impulse response approach and Poisson statistics proposed by Smith [Phys. Rev. B 64 , 155106 (2001)] to evaluate the longitudinal and transverse magneto-optical conductivities in an electron gas system in Faraday geometry. Comparing with the standard Drude model, the coefficients a n are introduced in the Drude-Smith formula to describe the backscattering or localization effect for the n th electronic scattering event. Such a formula can also be applied to study the elements of the dielectric function matrix in the presence of magnetic and radiation fields in electron gas systems. This theoretical work is primely motivated by recent experimental activities in measuring the real and imaginary parts of longitudinal and transverse magneto-optical conductivities in condensed matter materials and electronic devices using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. We believe that the results obtained from this study can provide an appropriate theoretical tool in reproducing the experimental findings and in fitting with experimental data to determine the important sample and material parameters.

    The Shock/Shear platform for planar radiation-hydrodynamics experiments on the National Ignition Facilitya) (2015)
    American Institute of Physics (AIP)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-04-18
    Description: An indirectly-driven shock tube experiment fielded on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) was used to create a high-energy-density hydrodynamics platform at unprecedented scale. Scaling up a shear-induced mixing experiment previously fielded at OMEGA, the NIF shear platform drives 130  μ m/ns shocks into a CH foam-filled shock tube (∼ 60 mg/cc) with interior dimensions of 1.5 mm diameter and 5 mm length. The pulse-shaping capabilities of the NIF are used to extend the drive for 〉10 ns, and the large interior tube volumes are used to isolate physics-altering edge effects from the region of interest. The scaling of the experiment to the NIF allows for considerable improvement in maximum driving time of hydrodynamics, in fidelity of physics under examination, and in diagnostic clarity. Details of the experimental platform and post-shot simulations used in the analysis of the platform-qualifying data are presented. Hydrodynamic scaling is used to compare shear data from OMEGA with that from NIF, suggesting a possible change in the dimensionality of the instability at late times from one platform to the other.

    Modifying mixing and instability growth through the adjustment of initial conditions in a high-energy-density counter-propagating shear experiment on OMEGA (2015)
    American Institute of Physics (AIP)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-06-25
    Description: Counter-propagating shear experiments conducted at the OMEGA Laser Facility have been evaluating the effect of target initial conditions, specifically the characteristics of a tracer foil located at the shear boundary, on Kelvin-Helmholtz instability evolution and experiment transition toward nonlinearity and turbulence in the high-energy-density (HED) regime. Experiments are focused on both identifying and uncoupling the dependence of the model initial turbulent length scale in variable-density turbulence models of k- ϵ type on competing physical instability seed lengths as well as developing a path toward fully developed turbulent HED experiments. We present results from a series of experiments controllably and independently varying two initial types of scale lengths in the experiment: the thickness and surface roughness (surface perturbation scale spectrum) of a tracer layer at the shear interface. We show that decreasing the layer thickness and increasing the surface roughness both have the ability to increase the relative mixing in the system, and thus theoretically decrease the time required to begin transitioning to turbulence in the system. We also show that we can connect a change in observed mix width growth due to increased foil surface roughness to an analytically predicted change in model initial turbulent scale lengths.

    Combined optical sizing and acoustical characterization of single freely-floating microbubbles (2016)
    American Institute of Physics (AIP)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-12-08
    Description: In this study we present a combined optical sizing and acoustical characterization technique for the study of the dynamics of single freely-floating ultrasound contrast agent microbubbles exposed to long burst ultrasound excitations up to the milliseconds range. A co-axial flow device was used to position individual microbubbles on a streamline within the confocal region of three ultrasound transducers and a high-resolution microscope objective. Bright-field images of microbubbles passing through the confocal region were captured using a high-speed camera synchronized to the acoustical data acquisition to assess the microbubble response to a 1-MHz ultrasound burst. Nonlinear bubble vibrations were identified at a driving pressure as low as 50 kPa. The results demonstrate good agreement with numerical simulations based on the shell-buckling model proposed by Marmottant et al . [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 118 , 3499–3505 (2005)]. The system demonstrates the potential for a high-throughput in vitro characterization of individual microbubbles.

    Anisotropic reorientational relaxation of biphenyl: Transient grating optical Kerr effect measurements (1989)

    Notes: Subpicosecond transient grating optical Kerr effect measurements have been used to evaluate the reorientation of biphenyl molecules in neat biphenyl and n-heptane solutions. Besides an ultrafast (100 fs time scale) component associated with librational damping/dephasing, two reorientational relaxation components are observed. The slow reorientation is due to rotation around the short axes of the molecule (tumbling motion), the fast reorientation is associated with internal rotation around the central C–C bond and/or rotation of the whole molecule around its long axis (spinning motion). Whereas the tumbling motion has been observed in earlier depolarized light scattering data, the time resolved Kerr data presented here are the first ones to reveal the dynamics of the fast reorientation component and the ultrafast librational dynamics. It is shown that the diffusive reorientational relaxation must be coupled to the ultrafast librational dynamics, and implications of this coupling are pointed out.

    Analysis of complex molecular dynamics in an organic liquid by polarization selective subpicosecond transient grating experiments (1989)

    Notes: We present a subpicosecond time resolved polarization selective transient grating (TG) investigation of pentylcyanobiphenyl (5CB) in its isotropic liquid phase. This system shows complex molecular dynamics with various contributions to the TG signal. With an excitation wavelength λexc=665 nm one induces an anisotropy in the sample from the electronic and nuclear Kerr effects. Exciting with λexc=575 nm generates an excited state grating because of two photon absorption. Solvent relaxation around the excited molecule on a few ps time scale is observed because it spectrally shifts the excited state–excited state transition which is monitored by the TG signal. In addition, radiationless relaxation leads to local heating of the sample in a spatial pattern which mimics the optical interference pattern which established the TG. The heating generates an acoustic standing wave. It is demonstrated that with a single TG setup, polarization selection allows separation and identification of all of the above-mentioned physical processes as they are characterized by different symmetries of the nonlinear susceptibility tensor χ(3).

    Atoms in molecules in external fields (1989)

    Notes: The theory of atoms in molecules is extended to the case where the molecule is in the presence of an electromagnetic field. This theory is based upon a generalization of quantum mechanics to an open system, as obtained through a corresponding extension of Schwinger's principle of stationary action. The extension of this principle is possible only if the open system satisfies a particular boundary condition, one which is expressed as a constraint on the variation of the action integral. This is the condition that it be bounded by a surface of zero flux in the gradient vector field of the charge density, the definition of an atom in a molecule. It is shown that this boundary constraint again suffices to define an atom as a quantum subsystem when the molecule is in the presence of an electromagnetic field. The mechanics of an open system and its properties are determined by the fluxes in corresponding vector current densities through its surface. As in the fieldfree case, the obtainment of these currents from the variation of the action integral is a direct result of the variation of the atomic surface and of the imposition of the variational constraint on its boundary. The currents in this case consist of a paramagnetic and a diamagnetic contribution, currents whose presence are a necessary requirement for the description of the properties of a system in the presence of external fields. The variational statement of the Heisenberg equation of motion obtained from the principle of stationary action is used to derive the Ehrenfest force and virial theorems for an atom in a molecule in the presence of external electric and magnetic fields. In this case, there are forces acting on the interior of the atom which arise from the magnetic pressures acting on its surface. It is shown that the molecular electric polarizability and magnetic susceptibility, like other properties, are rigorously expressible as a sum of atomic contributions.

    Notes: The absorption spectrum of Dy3+:LaCl3 at 4 K has been photographed and measured from 20 000 to 38 000 cm−1. Based on this and previous data, an empirical energy level scheme consisting of 151 observed crystal levels from 0 to 34 130 cm−1 has been determined for the 4f9 ground configuration of trivalent dysprosium in LaCl3 crystals. An extended Hamiltonian with 20 adjustable parameters is used to fit by least squares the observed levels with a mean error of 6.9 cm−1.
