Recurrence spectroscopy: Observation and interpretation of large-scale structure in the absorption spectra of atoms in magnetic fields
Measurements were made of the absorption spectrum of hydrogen atoms to levels near the ionization threshold in a strong magnetic field. Taking advantage of a classical scaling law, we varied the photon energy and the magnetic-field strength simultaneously, and measured absorption versus [ital B][sup [minus]1/3] at fixed scaled energy, [var epsilon]=[ital E]/([ital B]/[ital B][sub o])[sup 2/3]. The absorption rate has sinusoidal fluctuations which are correlated with closed classical orbits of the electron. Fourier transformation of this signal gives peaks, which we interpret as recurrence strength,'' as a function of the classical action of the closed orbit. Closed-orbit theory gives formulasmore » -
Extended x-ray absorption fine structure study of incorporation of Bi and Pb atoms into the crystal structure of Ba{sub 4.5}Nd{sub 9}Ti{sub 18}O{sub 54}
In extended x-ray aborption fine structure (EXAFS) study of local environment of Bi{sup 3+} and Pb{sup 2+} ions incorporated in Ba{sub 4.5}Nd{sub 9}Ti{sub 18}O{sub 54} actual sites of Bi- and Pb-incorporated are determined. Evidences are given that dopant ions are not distributed randomly on all theoretically possible sites: Bi{sup 3+} selectively enters one out of three posible channels, corresponding to the sites x=0.9484, y=0.2500, z=0.2939, and/or x=0.0455, y=0.2500, z=0.6928 previously occupied by Nd{sup 3+}, while Pb{sup 2+} selectively enters site x=0.4940, y=0.2500, z=0.4993 previously shared by Ba{sup 2+} and Nd{sup 3+}. {copyright} {ital 1997 Materials Research Society.}
