Nanosecond dynamics of the near-infrared photoluminescence of Er-doped SiO2 sensitized with Si nanocrystals.

We report on an observation of a fast 1.5 microm photoluminescence band from Er3+ ions embedded in an SiO2 matrix doped with Si nanocrystals, which appears and decays within the first microsecond after the laser excitation pulse. We argue that the fast excitation and quenching are facilitated by Auger processes related to transitions of confined electrons or holes between the space-quantized levels of Si nanocrystals dispersed in SiO2. We show that a great part--about 50%--of all Er dopants is involved in these fast processes and contributes to the submicrosecond emission.

Rotating hexagonal pattern in a dielectric barrier discharge system.

Here, we report on the experimental observation of a rotating hexagonal pattern in a continuous dissipative medium. The system under investigation is a planar dielectric barrier gas-discharge cell. The pattern consists of a set of current filaments occupying the whole discharge area and rotating as a rigid body. The symmetry of the rotating hexagons is lower than the symmetry of the stationary hexagonal pattern. We study the dynamics of the pattern, especially peculiarities of its rotational velocity. The temperature of the gas is found to be an important quantity influencing the rotating hexagons.

Concentric-ring patterns in a dielectric barrier discharge system.

We report on the first experimental observation of a concentric-ring pattern in a short planar dielectric barrier gas-discharge system and study its spatiotemporal behavior. While increasing the gas pressure the destabilization of the rings into a filamentary structure is observed. The charge carriers deposited on the dielectric electrodes determine the spatiotemporal behavior of the pattern.
