Ge quantum dots embedded in SiO2 have been obtained by implantation of Ge ions in the 10(16)-10(17) cm(-2) dose range, followed by post-implantation annealing in the temperature range T-a = 300-1000 degrees C. Using Rutherford back-scattering, grazing incidence X-ray diffraction and grazing incidence small angle X-ray scattering it was found that Ge-QDs are synthesized as discrete, spherical QDs, with radius ranging from 1.7 to 10 nm, depending on dose and T-a. For T-a above 800 degrees C the Ge atom diffusion becomes considerable, leading to a strong increase of both size and size distribution of Ge QDs, but still without sizeable loss of Ge atoms from the implanted layer.

Ge nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 in MOS based radiation sensors AKTAĞ, ALİEKBER; YILMAZ, ERCAN; Mogaddam, Nader A. P.; AYGÜN ÖZYÜZER, GÜLNUR; Cantas, Ayten; Turan, Raşit (Elsevier BV, 2010-11-15) In this work the effects of gamma radiation on the Raman spectra of Ge nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 have been investigated SiO2 films containing nanoparticles of Ge were grown using the r f -magnetron sputtering technique Formation of Ge nanocrystals was observed after high temperature annealing in an inert atmosphere and confirmed by Raman measurements The intensity of the Raman signal originating from Ge nanocrystals was found to decrease with increasing gamma radiation The study also includes the gamma ...
Spectroscopy of the ODD-ODD nucleus 76As and its supersymmetric description Hoyler, F.; Jolie, J.; Colvin, G.G.; Börner, H.G.; Schreckenbach, K.; Van Isacker, P.; Fettweis, P.; Göktürk, H.; Dehaes, J.C.; Casten, R.F.; Warner, D.D.; Bruce, A.M. (Elsevier BV, 1990) Gamma rays and conversion electrons following thermal-neutron capture in 75As have been measured using the Ge pair spectrometer PN4, the bent crystal spectrometers GAMS and the β-spectrometer BILL at the ILL. Coincident γ-rays were recorded at the CEN/SCK Mol, and average resonance capture at En = 2 and 24 keV has been studied at the HFBR of BNL. The neutron binding energy in 76As was determined to be 7328.498 ± 0.075 keV. The resulting level scheme for 76As greatly improves the knowledge on this odd-odd nu...
Nuclear modification factor of D-0 mesons in PbPb collisions at root s(NN)=5.02 TeV Sirunyan, A. M.; et. al. (Elsevier BV, 2018-07-01) The transverse momentum (p(T)) spectrum of prompt D-0 mesons and their antiparticles has been measured via the hadronic decay channels D-0 -> K- pi(+) and (D) over bar (0) -> K+ pi(-) in pp and PbPb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV per nucleon pair with the CMS detector at the LHC. The measurement is performed in the D-0 meson p(T) range of 2-100GeV/c and in the rapidity range of vertical bar y vertical bar < 1. The pp (PbPb) dataset used for this analysis corresponds to an integrated lumin...
Long-range and short-range dihadron angular correlations in central PbPb collisions at root s(NN)=2.76 TeV Chatrchyan, S.; et. al. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2011-07-01) First measurements of dihadron correlations for charged particles are presented for central PbPb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV over a broad range in relative pseudorapidity (Delta eta) and the full range of relative azimuthal angle (Delta phi). The data were collected with the CMS detector, at the LHC. A broadening of the away-side (Delta phi approximate to pi) azimuthal correlation is observed at all Delta eta, as compared to the measurements in pp collisions. Furthermor...
Cosmic tests and performance of the ATLAS SemiConductor tracker barrels Demirköz, Melahat Bilge (Elsevier BV, 2007-03-01) ATLAS is a multi-purpose particle detector for the LHC and will detect proton collisions with center of mass energy of 14 TeV. Part of the central inner detector, the SemiConductor Tracker (SCT) barrel, is now fully integrated with the Transition Radiation Tracker (TRT) barrel. The SCT module performance has been measured after module production, after macro-assembly of modules onto barrels, after arrival at CERN and again partially after integration with the TRT. The module noise average per channel has be...
