Wiggler-based electron beam microbunching amplifier study

The wiggler-based amplifier of the microbunching instability in the electron beam is considered and compared to a longitudinal space charge amplifier consisting of the drifts and chicanes. The gain in the magnitude of a seed perturbation of the electron beam density is evaluated analytically as a function of the period of the perturbation, the electron beam parameters, the wiggler parameters, and the amplifier lattice parameters. The theory is compared with the results of the numerical calculations of the gain based on simulations of the electron beam transport through the amplifier lattice.

Electronic and Vibrational Spectra of InP Quantum Dots Formed by Sequential Ion Implantation

We have performed sequential ion implantation of indium and phosphorus into silica combined with controlled thermal annealing to fabricate InP quantum dots in a dielectric host. Electronic and vibrational spectra were measured for the as-implanted and annealed samples. The annealed samples show a peak in the infrared spectra near 320/cm which is attributed to a surface phonon mode and is in good agreement with the value calculated from Frolich's theory of surface phonon polaritons. The electronic spectra show the development of a band near 390 nm that is attributed to quantum confined InP.

EISCAT observations during MAC/SINE and MAC/Epsilon

The EISCAT incoherent scatter radar facility in Tromsoe, Norway was operated during the MAC/SINE campaign for 78 hours in the period 10 June to 17 July 1987, and during the MAC/Epsilon campaign for 90 hours in the period 15 October to 5 November 1987. The VHF (224 MHz) radar operations during MAC/SINE yielded most interesting observations of strong coherent echoes from the mesopause region. Characteristic data of these polar mesospheric summer echoes are presented. The UHF (933 MHz) radar operations during MAC/Epsilon were done with 18 deg off zenith beam and allows the deduction of meridonal and horizontal wind components as well as radial velocity spectra in addition to the usual electron density profiles in the D and lower E regions. Some results from the VHF and UHF radars indicating the presence of gravity waves are examined.
