Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled SOME POSITRON ANNIHILATION STUDIES ON HIGHLY DOPED AND SUPERSATURATED N-TYPE SILICON Submitted by HO KING FUNG for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in July 2004 Positron Annihilation Spectroscopy (PAS) is a non-destructive technique that can be extensively used to probe the point defect structures found in solids. The basic physics behind PAS such as implantation, transport, vacancy trapping and annihilation are reviewed together with the various experimental techniques. Deconvolution algorithms have been applied to Coincidence Doppler Broadening Spectroscopy (CDBS) to improve the effective momentum resolution of the technique. The CDBS system instrumental resolution function is obtained using 85 the 514-keV line from Sr. The generalized least square method with Tikonov-Miller regularization, which incorporates a priori non-negativity constraints, is found to be very effective. Monte-Carlo simulations of CDBS have been used to optimize the deconvolution. The deconvolution technique, when applied to a series of well annealed polycrystalline metals, gives results that are found to be comparable quality-wise to those obtained by one dimensional Angular Correlation of Annihilation Radiation (ACAR). An attempt was made to evaluate the significance of ACAR data from positrons trapped in a crystal defect by defect studying the E-center (vacancy-dopant pair) in silicon. The Fourier transformation of the ACAR momentum distribution coming from positrons trapped at the E-center was studied. This gives in real-space the autocorrelation function of the positron-electron wavefunction product at the site of annihilation. Employing the ratio of the autocorrelation function for the E-center and bulk silicon, the positron binding energy to the E-center was estimated. It has been possible to approximately isolate that part of the E-centers' autocorrelation function that originates from the localized defect orbitals and to see spatial features relating to atomic positions in the E-center. Nonequilibrium processing consisting of ion implantation followed by annealing has been employed to produce supersaturated Antimony doped silicon. The defect structure of the ion implanted region and the post-implanted region have been studied using the Variable Energy Positron Annihilation Spectroscopy (VEPAS) technique. Evidence is given that positrons are trapped into precipitates or get trapped at precipitate boundaries at annealing temperatures less than 600C. Surprisingly, new vacancy defects appear in the implanted region at annealing temperatures over 600C. This is tentatively attributed to the fact that Sb precipitates begin to dissolve at these temperatures into VSb type complexes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a lull of four years the 'silk stocking rapist' is back at work on the Upper East Side, but this time Assistant DA Alexandra Cooper has perfect DNA evidence. She also has a much older case to work on - a skeleton has been found entombed in the wall of an old house - but it turns out to be a relatively modern murder from 1978. On the day the discovery of this body is leaked to the press, Alex gets a call that the silk stocking rapist has struck again, this time fatally. Or has he? Are the cases linked or is someone trying to silence a possible witness to a thirty-five-year old murder?

Book Positron Annihilation Studies of Solids and Surfaces

Download or read book Positron Annihilation Studies of Solids and Surfaces written by Paul Richard Guagliardo and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Truncated abstract] This thesis describes the first positron annihilation studies undertaken in the Atomic, Molecular and Surface Physics group in the School of Physics at the University of Western Australia (UWA). We have studied a range of systems with differing positron annihilation characteristics with the aim of characterising their defect properties, and in the process have gained insight into the interactions of positrons and positronium with materials. The project started with establishing a positron annihilation laboratory. This entailed developing procedures to produce and safely handle sealed 22Na sources, and testing positron annihilation instrumentation and experimental methods. The project evolved through collaboration with physicists, engineers, chemists, materials scientists, metallurgists and medical scientists and through a number of interesting experimental explorations of the physical phenomena affecting positron annihilation. An overview of these investigations and a thesis synopsis is given below. Chapter 1 is an introduction to positron annihilation techniques, concentrating on the interactions of positrons (and positronium) with materials, and on the spectroscopies that exploit the annihilation processes for the purpose of studying condensed matter systems. Chapter 2 describes the testing and optimisation of the positron annihilation lifetime spectrometer and Doppler broadening spectrometer. In Chapter 3, positron annihilation has been applied to study cation vacancies in oxides that exhibit ionic bonding. Such vacancies have a relative negative charge and so attract positrons, and the relatively low electron density at these sites causes enhanced positron lifetimes. Oxides considered in this work are (a) rutile, (Ti,Nb)O2, sintered in air and Ar; (b) tin oxide, (Sn,Nb)O2 sintered in air; (c) monoclinic zirconia, (Zr,Nb)O2; (d) pollucite, Cs(1-x)Al(1-x)Si(2+x)O6 and (e) Ta- and Ti-doped Zn2TiO4. All systems except (c) showed enhanced lifetimes when doping or off-stoichiometry was increased. In Chapter 4, positron annihilation has been used to study the nanoporosity of cementitious materials. The mechanical properties of these materials are heavily influenced by porosity, with the volume and size distribution of pores controlling both the strength and durability of the material...
