Radiation Defects Induced by Proton Exposure in Hollow Zinc-Oxide Particles J. Synch. Investig. Pub Date : 2020-08-25 A. N. Dudin; V. V. Neshchimenko; V. Yu. Yurina
AbstractZinc-oxide powders consisting of spherical hollow particles are obtained by hydrothermal synthesis. Comparative analysis of the diffuse reflectance spectra and their changes after irradiation with 100-keV protons of powders of micrometer-sized hollow and bulk particles of zinc oxide is carried out. We present the results of the physical and mathematical simulation of the interaction of a low-energy

α-FeSi 2 as a Buffer Layer for β-FeSi 2 Growth: Analysis of Orientation Relationships in Silicide/Silicon, Silicide/Silicide Heterointerfaces J. Synch. Investig. Pub Date : 2020-08-25 I. A. Tarasov; I. A. Bondarev; A. I. Romanenko
AbstractIn this manuscript, we attempt to clarify the capability of utilisation of α-FeSi2 nanocrystals as a buffer layer for growth of monocrystalline/high-quality β-FeSi2 direct-gap semiconductor from the point of view of the crystal lattice misfits and near coincidence site (NCS) lattices. Iron silicides-based nanostructures have a wide spectrum of possible industrial applications in different fields

Injection System for the Siberian Ring Source of Photons J. Synch. Investig. Pub Date : 2020-08-25 S. M. Gurov; V. N. Volkov; K. V. Zolotarev; A. E. Levichev
AbstractThe Siberian ring source of photons (SKIF) is a new 3-GeV fourth-generation source of synchrotron radiation with a perimeter of 480 m that is being developed in Novosibirsk. To obtain bright synchrotron-radiation beams, the SKIF must have a suitable injection system for the preparation of intense electron beams. The article describes the proposed configuration of the injection system and its

Reflection of Hydrogen Isotopes and Helium Atoms from the Surface of the First Wall of the ITER Tokamak J. Synch. Investig. Pub Date : 2020-08-25 D. S. Meluzova; P. Yu. Babenko; A. P. Shergin; A. N. Zinoviev
AbstractThe reflection coefficients were calculated for the scattering of hydrogen isotopes and helium atoms from the surface of amorphous beryllium, carbon, and tungsten targets, which are of interest in the physics of thermonuclear plasma. The results demonstrate good agreement with the available experimental data. The isotope effect in the reflection of particles from the wall was analyzed. For

Effect of the Preliminary Heat Treatment of Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride on the Formation of Carbon Nanofibers on its Surface under High-Power Ion-Beam Irradiation J. Synch. Investig. Pub Date : 2020-08-25 V. S. Kovivchak; A. B. Arbuzov; M. V. Trenikhin
The effect of a high-power ion beam of nanosecond duration on layers of chlorinated polyvinyl chloride with a catalytic additive (ferrocene), which preliminarily underwent treatment in air or an inert medium in the temperature range 100–400°C, is studied. Heat treatment at 150°C for 1 h is shown to reduce the length of the formed carbon nanofibers by ~20 times. Disk-shaped depressions are observed
