Times Cited Count:5 Percentile:84.61(Physics, Applied)Electron-positron momentum distribution obtained through the Doppler broadening of annihilation radiation measurement is very useful for identifying defects in materials. For the detailed analysis of Doppler broadening spectrum, precise theoretical calculation is needed. It is pointed out that the pseudo-potential method has a problem in the calculation of electron wavefunction near core region. To avoid this difficulty, some all-electron manner should be employed. We thus calculated the Doppler broadening spectra based on the electronic state calculation by the projector-augmented wave method and compared them with experimental spectra.

Times Cited Count:31 Percentile:73.40(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)Vacancy defects in ZnO induced by electron irradiation were characterized by the Doppler broadening of annihilation radiation measurements together with the local density approximation calculations. Zinc vacancies () are responsible for positron trapping in the as-irradiated state. These are annealed out below 200
C. The further annealing at 400
C results in the formation of secondary defects attributed to the complexes composed of zinc vacancies and zinc antisites (
-Zn
).

Times Cited Count:15 Percentile:53.24(Physics, Condensed Matter)In this presentation, we report identification of vacancy defects in cubic and hexagonal SiC irradiated with fast electrons through electron-pisitron momentum distribution measurements and theoretical analyses. In cubic SiC isolated silicon vacancies are responsible for positron trapping. The lifetime of positrons trapped at silicon vacancies is prolonged due to the outward lattice relaxation. Because of the local tetrahedral symmetry of silicon vacancies, the observed momentum distributions are consistently explained. In the case of hexagonal SiC, one particular vacancy defects appearing after annealing of isolated silicon vacancies have dangling bonds along the c-axis. From the enhancement of positron annihilation probability with carbon 1s electrons, the above defects are attributed to carbon-vacancy-antisite-carbon complexes.

=10 K decreases and becomes zero at a critical pressure Pc
2.6 GPa. In the pressure region
, we have observed a large main Fermi surface named a, which indicates that the electronic state of 4 f electron in CeIn
changes from localized to itinerant at Pc, as observed in the similar antiferromagnets CeRh
Si
and CeRhIn
. The cyclotron effective mass
of this main Fermi surface is extremely enhanced around Pc:
60
at 2.7 GPa for the magnetic field along the
100
direction.

Times Cited Count:16 Percentile:54.88(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)Two-dimensional angular correlation of annihilation radiation (2D-ACAR) and coincidence Doppler broadening (CDB) of annihilation radiation measurements have been performed on electron-irradiated n-type 3C SiC in which isolated silicon vacancies are responsible for positron trapping. After irradiation, the intensity of CDB spectrum increased and decreased in low and high momentum regions, respectively. These fetures were explained by the theoretical calculation considering silicon vacancies. The center region of 2D-ACAR spectra became isotropic after iradiation, while the overall anisotropies extending within the Jones zone were conserved suggesting that isolated silicon vacancies have the tetrahedral symmetry as expected from the previous electron spin resonance study.
