Chernivtsi National University, Chernivtsi, Kotsubynsky str., 2, 58012, tel. 80372244816, e-mail:ktf@chnu.edu.ua

The distribution of electron densities in multilayered quantum dot GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs/ GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs with central hydrogen-like impurity is calculated using energies and wave functions of the electron in the nanosystem obtained in the approximation of effective masses and rectangular potential barriers. It is also investigated the influence of the impurity on oscillator strengths of intrraband transitions. The dependencies of 1s-1p and 1s-2p quantum transitions are obtained as functions of geometrical parameters of the QD. It is shown that the oscillator strengths of different quantum transition can reach a maximum values in their own ranges of nanosystem sizes. The presence of donor impurity essentially affects the distribution of electron densities in nanosystem and oscillator strengthes of quantum transitions.

Yuriy Fed’kovych Chernivtsi National University, 2 Kotsiubynskogo Str., 58012 Chernivtsi, Ukraine; e-mail:v.kramar@chnu.edu.ua

The method of theoretical studying of the temperature dependence of the electron energy in a flat semiconductor nanofilm, which consists of layered semiconductor inserted into an organic dielectric medium, is proposed. This method based on the effective mass approximation for electronic and dielectric continuum model – for the phonon system. Specific calculations are made for the example of lead iodide as well material and ethylene-methacrylic acid copolymer (E-MAA) – as a barrier. It is shown that heating of nanosystem over 50 – 75 K causes a shift of the electrons ground state to the side of lower energies. The shift value is a monotonically increasing temperature function. The growth velocity of this function depends on the nanofilm thickness.
Keywords: nanoheterostructure, quantum well, nanofilm, electron, energy, layered semiconductor, lead iodide.

Within the framework of the model, using the two-particle cluster approximation we obtain a system of equations for the strains εi and ε5 and for the order parameter. Using these equations we calculate the static dielectric permittivity of the crystal. The dynamic dielectric permittivity of the crystal is calculated within the D.N.Zubarev nonequilibrium statistical operator method. The available experimental data for static and dynamic permittivities, is described.

Dynamics of CsI and KCl crystals surface stoichiometry change under electron and neodymium IR-laser irradiation was investigated. It was determined, that at low temperatures of irradiated surfaces change of CsI and KCl surfaces stoichiometry is defined mainly by electron mechanisms of halogen sputtering, thus both surfaces are enriched with metallic component. When at the crystals surfaces are achieved high close to melting temperatures, surfaces stoichiometry change is defined by the rates of component’s diffusion to the surface and evaporation, in that case CsI surface is enriched with halogen, while KCl surface – with metal. These processes are quasi-periodical and dependent on fluence and irradiation dose.
Keywords: laser and electron irradiation, auger-electron spectroscopy, surface stoichiometry of alkali halides crystals, surface defects.

Peculiarities of Tungsten Oxide Fibers Formation and Growth

Odessa national I.I. Mechnikov’s University Odessa, Ukraine, Dvoryanskaya str. 2, 65082, e-mail:svetor@rambler.ru

Promising applications of tungsten oxides stimulate wide studies of tungsten high temperature oxidation. Oxide microcrystals are of particular interest due to their high specific surface and unique physical properties. Formation and growth of tungsten oxide fibers and “bushes” are studied experimentally by “hot filament” method. Tungsten filament is heated electrically in air, the value of an electric current is matched to provide quasi-stationary regime of oxidation. At the beginning a continuous oxide layer is formed on the metal surface. When filament temperature exceeds 900 K, separate needles appear. They grow quickly, branch out and attain a height of 250 microns in ten minutes. So their growth rate is about 0.5 mcm/s. Obtained oxides structures were studied by SEM. A significant amount of carbon is found at the base of the needles and bushes. The carbon particles remain after wire-drawing with aquadag on the filament surface. In case a filament is cleaned carefully from carbon before oxidation no fibers are formed on the oxidized surface. Thus we conclude that primary crystallites are formed on carbon particles as a result of carbothermal reduction of tungsten trioxide molecules adsorbed from a gas and the following oxidation of tungsten and tungsten suboxides. The relatively high growth rate of crystals in our experimental conditions may be explained by mechanism “grain-by-grain buildup” Keywords: high temperature oxidation, tungsten oxides, oxide microcrystals, carbon.

Ivan Franko Lviv National University, 50, Dragomanov Str., Lviv, 79005, Ukraine, tel. (0322) 239-714, e-mail:bordun@electronics.wups.lviv.ua

Cathodoluminescent and photoelectric properties of ZnGa2O4 and ZnGa2O4:Mn thin films deposited by high-frequency ion-plasma sputtering were investigated depending on conditions and atmosphere of heat treatment. It was found that the annealing at 750С in the reducing atmosphere leads to an increase of the luminescence intensity and the electrical conductivity of the films. ZnGa2O4:Mn thin films conductivity increasing after the annealing in the reducing atmosphere is associated with the creation of a high concentration of oxygen vacancies and interstitial cation defects, which leads to the appearance of n-type conductivity.

1Taras Shevchenko Kyiv NationalUniversity
2Instytut Organic Chemistry, Academy of Sciences of Ukraine

The results of the studying the interaction of cyanine dye molecules with CdSe nanoparticles (NPs) in aqua solution are presented. It is shown that depending on the dye concentration there are could be observed different manifestations of the interaction. Thus, in the presence of NPs for concentrations of dye 1×10¬5 М or more there is the appearance of intense absorption bands corresponding to the J-aggregates of dye. Instead, there is surface modification of NPs by dye molecules, at dye concentrations near 3×10¬6 М. Quenching of surface defect’s luminescence with simultaneous enhancement exciton band of the nanoparticles was observed. We found that the effect of surface passivation significantly weakened when the concentration of surfactant maintained constant at a dilution of base NP solution by water. Maintaining a constant concentration of L-cysteine at a dilution of colloidal solution of nanoparticles is necessary to prevent sticking and loss of sediment. However, NPs sticking and sediment loss was not observed even with a decrease of surfactant concentration from 1.6 to 0.08 mg/ml, in presence of the dye.
Keywords: semiconductor nanoparticles, polymethine dyes, J-aggregates, optical absorbtion, luminescence, surface passivation.

The polyaniline films on the surface of amorphous metallic alloys of Al87Ni8(REE)5 content, namely Al87Ni8Y5, Al87Ni8Ce5, Al87Ni8Gd5 and Al87Ni8Dy5, were synthesized by the electrochemical oxidation of aniline in the potentiodynamic mode in the 0.5 М H2SO4 aqueous solution. The process of electrochemical aniline oxidation and redox transition of polyaniline are described. It is shown that the difference in the cyclic voltammogramms forms connected with nature of amorphizing additions, namely Y, Gd, Ce and Dy, which determines stability of surface oxide films on the surface of working electrodes. The analysis of the scanning electron microscopy images shown that the polyaniline film with extended surface forms on the contact side of the Al87Ni8(REE)5 electrodes. It was determined that morphology of polyaniline films depend also from the nature of amorphizing addition in the alloy. EDX spectra confirm polyaniline formation on the electrode surface and also presence of the sulfates of metals, which enter into the composition of working electrodes, in the polymeric films. Results of X-ray diffraction phase analysis indicated that the polymeric films on the surface of amorphous alloy electrodes forms the mixture of emeraldine base and emeraldine salt forms of the polyaniline.
