POSITRON ANNIHILATION AND POSITRON-ELECTRON CORRELATION EFFECTS IN HIGH- Tc OXIDES
نویسنده
چکیده
We have calculated electron and positron states in the Nd2_/ZexCuOq compound, for the perfect bulk lattice as well as when vacancy defects are included. We study the sensitivity of the results to different approximations in the positron potential. We also compute the annihilation rate and the electron-positron momentum density using the local density approximation and the newly developed gradient correction for the electron-positron contact term. Our main goal is to give predictions for the Fermi surface signals.

Positron Annihilation and Correlation in High-t, Oxides
Spectra of positron annihilation in YEa.$u&+ and Nd$uO, are calculated using self-consistent LM’IC calculations and compared with various experimental data. Methods for including effects of correlation and enhancement arc presented and applied in addition to the independent panicle model. Such effects are not crucial for the question of Fermi surface breaks in these materials. However from comp...

In this study, a positron annihilation lifetime spectrometer was set up and its resolution was optimized. The spectrometer is a fast-slow arrangement with time resolution of 250 ps. To obtain lifetime components and their intensities from analyzing positron annihilation lifetime spectrum, the Pascual software is used. Positrons are from a source of radioactive 22NaCl with 20 μCi activity enclos...
متن کاملAdvanced characterization of lithium battery materials with positrons
Cathode materials are crucial to improved battery performance, in part because there are not yet materials that can maintain high power and stable cycling with a capacity comparable to that of anode materials. Our parameter-free, gradient-corrected model for electron-positron correlations predicts that spectroscopies based on positron annihilation can be deployed to study the effect of lithium ...

متن کاملTheoretical and experimental study of positron annihilation with core electrons in solids.
A theory for calculating the momentum distribution of annihilating positron-electron pairs in solids is presented. To test the theory, momentum distributions are measured by the Doppler broadening of the annihilation radiation for several bulk metals and semiconductors, as well as for semiconductor alloys and for positrons trapped at vacancies in semiconductors. The theory is based on a two-par...
