Inherent memory effects in ZnS:Mn thin film EL devices
Remarkable hysteresis were found to excist in a thin film multilayer EL device consisting of a ZnS:Mn active layer sandwiched between a pair of Y 2 )0 3 , insulating layers. Due to its particular construction, hysteresis was observed between the brightness vs. amplitude of the exciting alternating voltage, which is instrumental to realizing the memory function. Electrical Writing and Erasing are possible by the amplitude modulation of the sustaining voltage. The typical memory margin observed here is about 10 to 30 volts(rms) under operating voltage of 170 to 280 volts(rms) with frequency of 1 to 5 kHz. Gray scale display as well as Optical Writing are possible.
5.63 and 5.80 MeV levels of Ne20; de-excitation branching
Abstract The ratio Г γ /Г for the 5.63 and 5.80 MeV levels of Ne 20 has been determined to be 0.077 (±0.008) and −4 , respectively, by using the C 12 (C 12 , α)Ne 20 reaction and determining the fraction of the events in which the alpha-particle and the Ne 20 recoil are present in coincidence at the kinematically correct angles. In both cases these results in themselves are shown to imply radiative E1 transition (5.63→1.63 and 5.80→0, respectively) probabilities ⪡5 × 10 −5 Weisskopf units. When taken together with the life-time for the 5.63 MeV level measured by Evans et al . values of Г( E1 ) ≲ 5 × 10 −6 and Г α ≈ 6% of the particle estimate are obtained for this state.
