The interaction of the sub-picosecond UV laser in sub-relativistic intensities with deuterium is investigated. At high plasma temperatures, based on the quantum correction in the collision frequency, the electron heating and the ion block generation in plasma are studied. It is found that due to the quantum correction, the electron heating increases considerably and the electron temperature uniformly reaches up to the maximum value of 4.91×107 K. Considering the quantum correction, the electron temperature at the laser initial coupling stage is improved more than 66.55% of the amount achieved in the classical model. As a consequence, by the modified collision frequency, the ion block is accelerated quicker with higher maximum velocity in comparison with the one by the classical collision frequency. This study proves the necessity of considering a quantum mechanical correction in the collision frequency at high plasma temperatures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This work report new integrated high quality factor (Q) GHz magnetic transformers based on solenoid structures with FeGaB/Al2O3 multilayer films. These transformers show excellent high-frequency performance with a wide operation frequency range of 0.5-5GHz, in which primary, secondary, and mutual inductances are flat, and the peak quality factor can reach around 14 at frequency of 1.2 GHz. High mutual coupling and low insertion loss are also demonstrated. These novel GHz transformers with high Q and mutual coupling show great promise for applications in radio frequency integrated circuits. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
