AbstractAbstract
[en] A fast stripline beam kicker and septum are used to dynamically switch a high current electron beam between two beamlines. The transport of the beam through these structures is determined by the quality of the applied electromagnetic fields as well as temporal effects due to the wakefields produced by the beam. In addition, nonlinear forces in the structure will lead to emittance growth. The effect of these issues is investigated analytically and by using particle transport codes. Due to the distributed nature of the beam-induced effects, multiple macro-particles (slices) are used in the particle transport code, where each slice consists of an ensemble of particles with an initial distribution in phase space. Changes in the multipole moments of an individual slice establish electromagnetic wakes in the structure and are allowed to interact with subsequent beam macro-particles to determine the variation of the steering, focusing, and emittance growth during the beam pulse

AbstractAbstract
[en] A dipole septum magnet without a material septum has been designed and tested as part of a fast beam kicker system for use in intense, electron-beam induction accelerators. This septum magnet is a simple, iron-based electromagnet with two static, oppositely oriented dipole field regions used to provide further separation of beam centroids given a small angle kick by a fast beam kicker. The magnet geometry includes removable pole pieces to allow experimental flexibility. Field errors experienced by the beam depend crucially on the magnitude of the initial kick that provides displacement of the beam centroids from the transition region between the two dipole field regions. Results of simulations are reported

AbstractAbstract
[en] Nonlinear ablative single-mode Rayleigh–Taylor instability (RTI) with weak and strong preheatings has been investigated numerically. The numerical results for the linear growth rates obtained are in general agreement with a self-consistent linear stability analysis (Goncharov et al 1996 Phys. Plasmas 3 4665). The effects of preheating on the ablative RTI (ARTI) are shown to reduce its linear growth rate and mitigate the weakly nonlinear growth. It was found that the nonlinear evolution of the ARTI is strongly dependent on the preheating intensity and perturbation wavelength. There are three typical wavelength perturbations for the nonlinear evolution of the ARTI. In the ARTI with weak preheating, for a short-wavelength perturbation the spike can be ruptured in the highly nonlinear regime and for a middle/long-wavelength perturbation the Kelvin–Helmholtz mushroom-shaped patterns appear at the spike heads. In the ARTI with strong preheating for a middle-wavelength perturbation, jet-like spikes can be formed though the spikes can still be ruptured in its classical RTI (without thermal conductivity) counterpart. In summary, our numerical studies indicate that the preheating can have a pronounced influence on the nonlinear evolutions of the ARTI. Thus, it should be included in applications where preheating plays a vital role, such as inertial confinement fusion implosions and supernova explosions. (paper)

AbstractAbstract
[en] In this research, density gradient effects (i.e., finite thickness of ablation front effects) in ablative Rayleigh-Taylor instability (ARTI), in the presence of preheating within the weakly nonlinear regime, are investigated numerically. We analyze the weak, medium, and strong ablation surfaces which have different isodensity contours, respectively, to study the influences of finite thickness of ablation front on the weakly nonlinear behaviors of ARTI. Linear growth rates, generation coefficients of the second and the third harmonics, and coefficients of the third-order feedback to the fundamental mode are obtained. It is found that the linear growth rate which has a remarkable maximum, is reduced, especially when the perturbation wavelength λ is short and a cut-off perturbation wavelength λc appears when the perturbation wavelength λ is sufficiently short, where no higher harmonics exists when λ<λc. The phenomenon of third-order positive feedback to the fundamental mode near the λc[J. Sanz et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 89, 195002 (2002); J. Garnier et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 90, 185003 (2003); J. Garnier and L. Masse, Phys. Plasmas 12, 062707 (2005)] is confirmed in numerical simulations, and the physical mechanism of the third-order positive feedback is qualitatively discussed. Moreover, it is found that generations and growths of the second and the third harmonics are stabilized (suppressed and reduced) by the ablation effect. Meanwhile, the third-order negative feedback to the fundamental mode is also reduced by the ablation effect, and hence, the linear saturation amplitude (typically ∼0.2λ in our simulations) is increased significantly and therefore exceeds the classical prediction 0.1λ, especially for the strong ablation surface with a small perturbation wavelength. Overall, the ablation effect stabilizes the ARTI in the weakly nonlinear regime. Numerical results obtained are in general agreement with the recent weakly nonlinear theories and simulations as proposed [J. Sanz et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 89, 195002 (2002); J. Garnier et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 90, 185003 (2003); J. Garnier and L. Masse, Phys. Plasmas 12, 062707 (2005)].

AbstractAbstract
[en] In this paper, the pyramid-like texture aluminum doped zinc oxide (ZnO:Al) thin films was prepared by adding negative bias voltage and controlling the sputtering parameters properly, and the lowest resistivity of 7.8x10-4 ·cm, light transmittance above 83% was achieved, respectively. Instead of the traditional tin oxide doped with fluorine (SnO2:F), using the ZnO:Al film as a front electrode transparent conducting oxide (TCO) layer for hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) solar cells, the higher contact potential barrier of ZnO:Al /p-a-SiC:H have to be overcome. In this paper, we attempt to resolve the contact potential barrier by inserting a buffer layer of microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H) between ZnO:Al layer and p-SiC: H windows layer, and its efficiency increases from 7.6% for the SnO2:F TCO to 8.3% for the ZnO:Al /μc-Si:H TCO.

AbstractAbstract
[en] The trapped electron modes (TEMs) are numerically investigated in toroidal magnetized hydrogen, deuterium and tritium plasmas, taking into account the effects of impurity ions such as carbon, oxygen, helium, tungsten and others with positive and negative density gradients with the rigorous integral eigenmode equation. The effects of impurity ions on TEMs are investigated in detail. It is shown that impurity ions have substantially-destabilizing (stabilizing) effects on TEMs in isotope plasmas for (), opposite to the case of ion temperature gradient (ITG) driven modes. Detailed analyses of the isotope mass dependence for TEM turbulences in hydrogenic isotope plasmas with and without impurities are performed. The relations between the maximum growth rate of the TEMs with respect to the poloidal wave number and the ion mass number are given in the presence of the impurity ions. The results demonstrate that the maximum growth rates scale as in pure hydrogenic plasmas. The scale depends on the sign of its density gradient and charge number when there is a second species of (impurity) ions. When impurity ions have density profiles peaking inwardly (i.e. ), the scaling also depends on ITG parameter . The maximum growth rates scale as for the case without ITG () or the ITG parameter is positive () but the impurity ion charge number is low (). However, when and the impurity ion charge number is moderate (), the scaling law is found as . Here, Z is impurity ion charge number, and the effective mass number, , with and being the mass numbers of the hydrogenic and impurity ions, respectively, and being the charge concentration of impurity ions. In addition, with regard to the case of , the maximum growth rate scaling is . The possible relations of the results with experimental observations are discussed. (paper)

AbstractAbstract
[en] Fabrication of InGaAlAs MQW buried heterostructure (BH) lasers by narrow stripe selective MOVPE is demonstrated in this paper. High quality InGaAlAs MQWs were first grown by narrow stripe selective MOVPE without any etching process and assessed by analysing the cross sections and PL spectrums of the InGaAlAs MQWs. Furthermore, BHs were fabricated for the InGaAlAs MQW lasers by a developed unselective regrowth method, instead of conventional selective regrowth. The InGaAlAs MQW BH lasers exhibit good device characteristics, with a high internal differential quantum efficiency of 85% and a low internal loss of 6.7 cm-1. Meanwhile, narrow divergence angles of the far field pattern are obtained for the fabricated lasers

AbstractAbstract
[en] In the present letter, we propose the design of a wedged-peak pulse at the late stage of indirect drive. Our simulations of one- and two-dimensional radiation hydrodynamics show that the wedged-peak-pulse design can raise the drive pressure and capsule implosion velocity without significantly raising the fuel adiabat. It can thus balance the energy requirement and hydrodynamic instability control at both ablator/fuel interface and hot-spot/fuel interface. This investigation has implication in the fusion ignition at current mega-joule laser facilities
