Times Cited Count:17 Percentile:59.57(Chemistry, Analytical)The distribution constants of 4-benzoyl-3-phenyl-5-isoxazolone (HPBI) and deprotonated one (PBI) between hydrophobic ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ([CCim][TfN]) and aqueous phases were determined, together with the acid-dissociation constant of HPBI. The solvent extraction of three selected lanthanoid ions (La, Eu, and Lu) with HPBI from aqueous nitrate phase into [CCim][TfN] has been investigated. Application of the ionic liquid as the extracting phase greatly enhanced the extraction performance of HPBI for lanthanoid ions compared with that in the chloroform system. The composition of the extracted species was established to be anionic tetrakis entities, Ln(PBI), for light, middle, and heavy lanthanoid ions in an ionic environment.

The researches on examination of the plug applied to the future reflood test was conducted as a part of (5) development of technologies for restoration and/on reduction of the excavation damage relating to the engineering technology in the MIU (2014), specifically focused on (1) plug examination (e.g. functions, structure and material) and the quality control methods and (2) analytical evaluation of rock mass behavior around the plug through the reflood test. As the result, specifications of the plug were determined. These specifications should be able to meet requirements for the safety structure and surrounding rock mass against predicted maximum water pressure, temperature stress and seismic force, and for controlling the groundwater inflow, ensuring the access into the reflood gallery and the penetration performance of measurement cable. Also preliminary knowledge regarding the rock mass behavior around the plug after flooding the reflood gallery by installed plug was obtained.

In this study, we investigated the effects of irradiation to the silkworm eggs at various developmental stages. First, we tried the irradiation to the unfertilized eggs (at 1.5 hour after oviposition). At this stage, the female pronucleus and the sperm nucleus are observed in the eggs, but not fertilized. After irradiation, the irradiated eggs stopped the development after fertilization. About 2 hours after, the egg restarted the nuclear cleavage. This result indicates the DNA damage on pronuleus cannot prevent the fertilization. We also investigated the effects of irradiation to the egg at the nuclear cleavage stage (at 6 hour after oviposition). The egg also stopped the development after irradiation, but the duration time of the developmental arrest was almost two times longer (about 4 hours) than that of the egg irradiated at fertilization.

Times Cited Count:32 Percentile:67.33(Chemistry, Physical)The electronic structure of Co atoms in CoPc-based carbon catalysts, which were prepared by pyrolyzing a mixture of CoPc and phenol resin polymer up to 1000C, has been investigated using XAFS analysis and HXPES. The Co K XAFS spectra show that most of the Co atoms are in the metallic state and small quantities of oxidized Co components are present in the samples even after acid washing to remove Co atoms. Based on the difference in probing depth between XAFS and HXPES, it was found that after acid washing, the surface region with the aggregated Co clusters is primarily composed of metallic Co. Since the electrochemical properties remain almost unchanged even after the acid washing process, the residual metallic and oxidized Co atoms themselves will hardly contribute to the ORR activity of the CoPc-based carbon cathode catalysts, implying that the active sites of the CoPc-based catalysts primarily consist of light elements such as C and N.

We have described the valence transition in YbInCu in terms of the charge transfer from the CB to Yb 4 states.

Times Cited Count:90 Percentile:91.52(Chemistry, Physical)We report on the electronic structure of three different types of N-containing carbon-based cathode catalysts for polymer electrolyte fuel cells observed by hard X-ray photoemission spectroscopy. C 1s spectra show the importance of carbon network formation for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity. Samples having high oxygen reduction reaction activity in terms of oxygen reduction potential contain high concentration of graphite-like nitrogen. Based on a quantitative analysis of our results, the oxygen reduction reaction activity of the carbon-based cathode catalysts will be improved by increasing concentration of graphite-like nitrogen in a developed carbon network.

Future synchrotron light source using a 5-GeV energy recovery linac (ERL) is under proposal by our Japanese collaboration team, and we are conducting R&D efforts for that. We are developing high-brightness DC photocathode guns, two types of cryomodules for both injector and main superconducting (SC) linacs, and 1.3 GHz high CW-power RF sources. We are also constructing the Compact ERL (cERL) for demonstrating the recirculation of low-emittance, high-current beams using above-mentioned critical technologies.

Times Cited Count:31 Percentile:72.67(Physics, Applied)The axial orientation of molecular-beam-epitaxy (MBE)-grown FeSi(111)/Ge(111) hybrid structures was investigated by Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy. We confirmed that during MBE above 300C, the interdiffusion of Fe and Ge atoms results in a composition change and the epitaxial growth of FeGe in FeSi. Low-temperature (200 C) MBE can realize fully ordered DO-FeSi with highly axial orientation [minimum yield ()=2.2%]. Postannealing above 400 C results in a composition change and the degradation of axial orientation in the off-stoichiometric FeSi. The significance of stoichiometry with regard to thermal stability and the interfacial quality of FeSi(111)/Ge(111) hybrid structures was also discussed.

Ferromagnetic silicide FeSi (Currie temperature: 840 K) has three phases (A2, B2, and DO3), where the DO3-type is an ordered phase and calculated to be spin-polarized at the Fermi level. In addition, the lattice constant (0.565 nm) of FeSi is almost completely equal to that (0.565 nm) of Ge. Therefore, atomically controlled epitaxial growth of FeSi is expected on Ge. This will be a powerful tool to realize Ge channel spin transistors with ultrahigh speed operation and ultralow power consumption. This paper reviews our recent progress in novel epitaxial growth of FeSi on Ge for spintronics application.

Our recent progresses in epitaxial growth of FeSi on Ge substrates are reviewed. Single crystalline FeSi layers with atomically flat interfaces were achieved on Ge(111) substrates by optimizing growth conditions at low temperatures (60200 C). Thermal stability of it was guaranteed up to 400 C. In addition, epitaxial growth of mixed layers composed of FeSi, FeGe, and FeSi on Ge substrates at 400 C is reported. Finally, epitaxial growth of FeSi/Ge/FeSi/Ge structures is discussed. These results will be a powerful tool to open up SiGe related spintronics.

The effects of the Fe/Si ratios on molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) of FeSi on Ge substrate have been investigated in a wide range of growth temperatures (60300 C). From XRD measurements, it was found that FeSi layers were epitaxially grown on Ge(111) substrates at 60200 C under the stoichiometric (Fe:Si = 3:1) and non-stoichiometric (Fe:Si = 4:1) conditions. From RBS measurement, it was found that atomic mixing of Fe and Ge at FeSi/Ge interfaces began at a growth temperature of 300 C. In the case of MBE under the stoichiometric condition, the crystallinity of FeSi is significantly improved compared to the non-stoichiometric condition. As a result, very low was obtained in a wide temperature (60200 C) under the stoichiometric condition. From the transmission electron microscopy measurements, it was shown that high-quality DO3-type FeSi/Ge structures with atomically flat interfaces were realized at a low temperature (200 C) under the stoichiometric condition.
