First-principles study on various point defects formed by hydrogen and helium atoms in tungsten

The different point defects formed by two hydrogen atoms or two helium atoms in tungsten were investigated through first-principles calculation. The energetically favorable site for a hydrogen atom is tetrahedral interstitial site while substitutional site is the most preferred site for a helium atom. The formation energies of two hydrogen or helium atoms are determined by their positions, and there are not a multiple of a single atom's. After relaxation, two adjacent hydrogen atoms are away from each other while helium atoms are close to. The reasons for the interaction between two hydrogen or helium atoms are also discussed.

The CL and PL characteristic of different scale CsI:Na crystals

We investigate the luminescence characteristic of different scale CsI:Na crystals excited via photoluminescence(PL) and cathodoluminescence (CL). The CsI:Na crystals are processed to three samples with different diameter, decreasing from micro-scale to nano-scale. It is found that the nano-scale CsI:Na crystal emits 420nm luminescence by PL, while its emission band is at 315nm and 605nm by CL. The reason for this phenomenon relates to the energy and density of incident particles, and the diameter of CsI:Na crystal. When crystal diameter decreases to nano-scale, the number of surface defects relatively increases, leading to the Na-relative luminescence decreasing. In addition, we have also investigated the CsI:Tl crystal with the same experiment condition. The result indicates that the emission almost has nothing to do with the crystal diameter.
