A wire-scanner monitor using metallic wire is reliably employed for the beam-profile measurement in the J-PARC linac. Because the loading of negative hydrogen (H
) ion beam on a wire increases under high-current beam operation, we focus on using a high-durability beam profile monitors by attaching another wire material. Carbon nanotubes (CNT) are made of graphite in a cylindrical shape and have a tensile strength not less than 100 times that of steel. The electric conductivity has higher than that of metals, and hardness is endured thermally around 3000
C in a vacuum circumstance. We applied the wires made from CNT to WSM and measured transverse profiles with a 3-MeV H beam. As a result, we obtained the equivalent signal levels taken by carbon wire made of polyacrylonitrile without any damage. In this paper, the signal response when the CNT is irradiated with an H beam and the result of beam profile measurement. In addition, the surface of CNT after 3-MeV beam operation was observed.

Times Cited Count：11 Percentile：35.20(Chemistry, Physical)Amorphous SiC nanotubes are successfully synthesized by 340 keV Si
ions irradiation of polycrystalline SiC nanotubes for the first time. A polycrystalline/amorphous heterostructure SiC nanotube, in which polycrystalline SiC and amorphous SiC coexist in the same nanotube, is also synthesized by ions irradiation with a mask in front of polycrystalline SiC nanotube. According to electron energy loss spectroscopy evaluation, the plasmon energies of SiC nanotube change rapidly at the interface between polycrystalline and amorphous regions. The volume swelling by amorphization evaluated from the differences of plasmon energies is approximately 5.0%. This result reveals that the further relaxed amorphous SiC nanotubes with higher density can be produced. The graphitic shells in carbon layer of C-SiC nanotube gradually bend to the radial direction of nanotube by the ion irradiation. Since the graphite (002) spots in the selected area electron diffraction pattern are clearly observed even after the ion irradiation, the carbon layer in C-SiC nanotube has certain crystallinity. Moreover, the new multi-walled carbon nanotube with the graphitic shells completely parallel to the radial direction of nanotube is also produced inside the amorphous SiC tubular layer in the case of C-SiC nanotube with large caliber.

Times Cited Count：1 Percentile：4.75(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)The S=1/2 three-leg spin nanotube with the ring exchange interaction at each plaquette is investigated using the numerical diagonalization of finite-size systems. The previous work suggested that the system without the ring exchange interaction has a spin excitation gap between the singlet ground state and the triplet excitation, because a spontaneous dimerization occurs in the ground state. The present study indicates that as the ring exchange increases, a quantum phase transition occurs at some critical value to another spin gap phase where the pattern of the dimerization is different from the initial one.

To compensate for heat dissipation through the vessel and reduced microwave absorption due to intermediate in the fabrication process of the metallic oxide powder by the microwave heating denitration method, alumina composite ceramic material containing CNT which has a high relative dielectric loss as the external heating source with self-heating by microwave heating. The CNT was observed by SEM of the CNT-containing alumina composite ceramic material to observe the CNT presence in the base material of alumina. The surface resistivities decreased significantly when the CNT content increased from 0.2 to 0.5 mass%, and there was not much of a significant difference when the CNT content increased from 0.5 to 1.0 mass%. These results are consistent with the results of the previous studies of the apparent dielectric loss that showed a trend toward an increase in the apparent dielectric loss as the CNT content increased from 0.2 to 0.5 mass% in the CNT-containing alumina composites.

SiC nanotubes can become candidate reinforcement materials for dental and orthopedic implants due to their light weight and excellent mechanical properties. However, the development of bioactive SiC materials has not been reported. In this study, hydroxyapatites were found on SiC nanotubes treated with NaOH and subsequent HCl solution after soaking in simulated body fluid. On the other hand, hydroxyapatites did not deposit on as received SiC nanotubes, the SiC nanotubes with NH
OH solution treatment and SiC bulk materials with NaOH and subsequent HCl solution treatment. Therefore, we succeeded in the development of bioactive SiC nanotubes by downsizing SiC materials to nanometer size and treating with NaOH and subsequent HCl solutions for the first time.

A method to simultaneously achieve direct heating and thermal conduction heating using only microwaves to complete a chemical reaction was studied, using an alumina composite material containing carbon nanotube (CNT) with high microwave absorption properties as the heating medium. In addition to evaluating the relationship between CNT content and relative dielectric loss and heating properties, an alumina ceramic coating was applied to the pellet surface by the aerosol deposition method to prevent CNT desorption in high temperature environment, and the effect of the coating on the durability of CNT-containing alumina composite material was investigated.

The microwave heating method is used in the reprocessing process of spent fuels. It is possible to improve powder quality by microwave and external heating together. However, the use of external heating in a microwave irradiation field causes a problem of deterioration of equipment. Hybrid heating using CNT-containing alumina with a large relative permittivity as an external heating source has been studied. The characteristics of the hybrid heating in a cavity-type reactor and the relationship between the relative dielectric losses of the materials were evaluated. The relative dielectric losses of the CNT-containing alumina and sample powders were measured by the cavity resonator method and the MW-TG method, respectively. The relative dielectric loss measured by the MW-TG was consistent with the selectivity of heating and was confirmed to be an appropriate index for evaluating the microwave heating characteristics.

This study aims to investigate the effect of hybrid heating on the denitration reaction of a nickel nitrate aqueous solution to evaluate the feasibility of hybrid heating method with an alumina jacket containing carbon nanotube (CNT) as a microwave heating medium. When an alumina jacket without CNT was used, the temperature decreased and the denitration reaction stopped due to the formation of an intermediate product Ni
(NO
)
(OH) with low dielectric loss. Whereas, when an alumina jacket containing 0.2 mass% CNT was used, the denitration reaction was completed and nickel oxide particles were obtained. It is presumed that the denitration reaction proceeds by heat conduction from the CNT-containing alumina jacket because the jacket is selectively heated by microwaves more than the Ni(NO)(OH). It is clarified that hybrid heating can be realized by a CNT-containing alumina jacket.

The S=1/2 spin nanotube is theoretically investigated by the numerical diagonalization and the density matrix renormalization group. We found some new quantum phase transitions with respect to the ratio of the leg and rung exchange interactions. Some interesting quantum phenomena in the carrier doped spin tube will be also discussed.

The microwave heating method is used in the reprocessing process of spent fuels. It is possible to improve the quality of raw powder by using microwave heating and an external heating source together. However, the use of external heating in a microwave irradiation field causes a problem of deterioration of equipment. Therefore, the hybrid heating using a carbon nanotube (CNT) -containing alumina composite material with a large relative permittivity as an external heating source has been studied. To clarify the effect of the CNT content on the dielectric properties, the microwave heating characteristics were measured and evaluated, and numerical simulation was carried out. From these results, the microwave heating characteristics can be controlled by adjusting the CNT content in the CNT-containing alumina composite material.
