Nuclear Data Sheets for A=105☆

This work presents new evaluation of A=105 nuclear structure and decay data. It covers a range of nuclei from the very neutron-rich {sup 105}{sub 38}Sr to the extremely neutron-deficient {sup 105}{sub 52}Te, known also to be the doughter of the lightest alpha decaying nucleus {sup 109}I. The work is based on experimental studies performed in the last 73 years, where A=105 nuclei were produced in particle transfer, fusion/evaporation reactions, sponataneus and induced fission, fusion and fragmentation of relativistic beams, radioactive decay etc.

One-Step Transfer of Symmetric and Asymmetric Contacts for Large-Scale 2D Electronics and Optoelectronics

Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors are highly promising candidates for thin-film transistor applications due to their scalability, transferability, atomic thickness, and relatively high carrier mobility. However, a substantial performance gap remains between individual devices based on single-crystalline 2D films and wafer-scale integrated circuits, primarily due to defects introduced during conventional fabrication processes. Here, we report a diamond-assisted electrode transfer technique for the van der Waals integration of wafer-scale prefabricated electrode arrays onto 2D materials, enabling scalable electronics and optoelectronics. Implemented on metal–organic chemical vapor deposition-grown monolayer molybdenum disulfide, this method forms ultraclean metal–semiconductor interfaces, yielding field-effect transistors with excellent ohmic contacts, a low contact resistance of 400 Ω·μm, and a Schottky barrier height of only 9 meV. Furthermore, we demonstrate a scalable transistor array on monolayer molybdenum disulfide with excellent device performance uniformity, achieving an average field-effect mobility of 30 cm 2 V –1 s –1 and an on/off current ratio exceeding 105. Additionally, high photocurrent and responsivity were demonstrated in the array devices, showing their potential for excellent image detection. We further demonstrate the versatility of this technique by fabricating a Schottky diode array through a single-step transfer of asymmetric electrodes─low work function aluminum and high work function gold─onto monolayer tungsten diselenide. This approach provides a clean, effective solution for contact engineering in 2D materials, offering a viable pathway toward wafer-scale, high-performance 2D electronics, optoelectronics, and integrated circuits.

Bearing endurance tests in vacuum for sputtered molybdenum disulfide films

Angular-contact, 440C stainless steel, ball bearings with sputtered MoS2 films 0.0000006 x 10-7m (6000 A) thick were evaluated in a vacuum bearing chamber (1750 rpm, 137.9-N- (31-lbf-) thrust load) for endurance. Two types of sputtered films were evaluated: (1) MOS2 sputtered directly onto bearing components, and (2) a thin 0.0000001 x 10-7m (1000 A) underlayer of Cr3Si2 subsequently sputtered with MoS2. Bearing test evaluations in vacuum showed that endurance lives of more than 1000 hours (105,000,000 cycles) were obtained with bearings (cage, races, and balls) directly sputtered with MoS2. The same endurance lives were also obtained when only the races and cage were sputtered with an underlayer of Cr3Si2 and subsequently with MoS2.

Stellar Laboratories

For the spectral analysis of high-resolution and high signal-to-noise (SN) spectra of hot stars, state-of-the-art non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) model atmospheres are mandatory. These are strongly dependent on the reliability of the atomic data that is used for their calculation. Aims: To identify molybdenum lines in the ultraviolet (UV) spectra of the DA-type white dwarf G191B2B and the DO-type white dwarf RE 0503289 and, to determine their photospheric Mo abundances, reliable Mo iv-vii oscillator strengths are used. Methods: We newly calculated Mo iv-vii oscillator strengths to consider their radiative and collisional bound-bound transitions indetail in our NLTE stellar-atmosphere models for the analysis of Mo lines exhibited in high-resolution and high SN UV observations of RE 0503289.Results. We identified 12 Mo v and nine Mo vi lines in the UV spectrum of RE 0503289 and measured a photospheric Mo abundance of 1.2 3.0 104(mass fraction, 22 500 56 400 times the solar abundance). In addition, from the As v and Sn iv resonance lines,we measured mass fractions of arsenic (0.51.3 105, about 300 1200 times solar) and tin (1.33.2 104, about 14 300 35 200 times solar). For G191B2B, upper limits were determined for the abundances of Mo (5.3 107, 100 times solar) and, in addition, for Kr (1.1106, 10 times solar) and Xe (1.7107, 10 times solar). The arsenic abundance was determined (2.35.9 107, about 21 53 times solar). A new, registered German Astrophysical Virtual Observatory (GAVO) service, TOSS, has been constructed to provide weighted oscillator strengths and transition probabilities.Conclusions. Reliable measurements and calculations of atomic data are a prerequisite for stellar-atmosphere modeling. Observed Mo v-vi line profiles in the UV spectrum of the white dwarf RE 0503289 were well reproduced with our newly calculated oscillator strengths. For the first time, this allowed the photospheric Mo abundance in a white dwarf to be determined.
