The gamma-ray blazar 1611+343 was observed with polarization VLBI mode at 5 GHz in February 1999. The total intensity (I) VLBI image of the source shows a core-jet structure. The jet bends eastward at ∼ 3 mas south of the core. Four components have been detected from results of fitting, with apparent speeds estimated at 6.7 ± 0.7, 2.5 ± 0.3, 4.5 ± 0.5 h −1 c for three jet components (taking H 0 = 100 h km s −1 Mpc −1 , q 0 = 0.5). The polarization (P ) VLBI image of 1611+343 displays the polarized configuration in the jet. The mechanism of the curved jet is discussed.
We prepared TiN films by metallic or nitride mode sputtering using a collimator, and investigated the characteristics of the films. Resistivity, density, thermal stress, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements and transmission electron microscope (TEM) observation were carried out. The characteristics of the TiN films depended on the N2/Ar flow ratio. TiN deposition rates in the metallic mode with N2/Ar flow ratios from 0.2 to 0.5 were 3 times higher than those in the conventional nitride mode with N2/Ar ratios from 0.75 to 1.0. By depositing the film under the best metallic mode conditions with N2/Ar=0.5, the TiN film with a minimum resistivity and a maximum film density was formed. The TiN films, which were prepared under optimized conditions of metallic mode deposition, had a small concentration of oxide in the TiN, strong (111)-preferred orientation and good crystallinity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
