ABSTRACTAlkali ions, which compensate for substitional Al3+, play an important role in the frequency stability of α-quartz crystals. In this work, low temperature dielectricloss measurements (between 2.9 and 300 K) are carried out on crystals that have been “swept” so as to introduce either Li+ or Na+. High quality synthetic crystals as well as natural crystals are employed. The well known loss peaks due to Al-Na pairs are further explored and similar peaks due to Al-Li are sought after but not found. It is concluded that the Al-Li pair is oriented along the C2 -axis of the A104 distorted tetrahedron. After irradiation, large peaks are observed at very low temperatures both in Li+- and Na+-containing crystals. These peaks, which are distorted below ∼6 K due to the onset of quantum effects, may originate in alkali centers produced when alkali ions are liberated by the irradiation.

Yield stress "anomalies" have been studied in polycrystalline nickel at low temperatures. Both quantum effects and structural changes below 0.1–0.2 of the Debye temperature contribute to low-temperature anomalies in the temperature dependence of the yield stress. The anomalies appear to be basically a consequence of the effect of zero-point vibrations on the rates of transition in the localized process of activation. An attempt is made to explain the anomalies by introducing a "strain-enhancement" effect, i.e., f(T), semiempirically in the logrithmic creep equation [Formula: see text] where Teff = T0 + AT2 (T0 and A are constants), which allows for quantum effects below a certain temperature.

AbstractThe transient properties of a Brownian particle moving in a bistable system with quantum corrections are investigated. The Quantum Smoluchowski Equation (QSE) is fully valid for high temperatures; for low temperatures it is valid only in a restricted domain of the state space. The quantum effects in a bistable system stand out for low temperatures. Explicit expressions of the mean first-passage time (MFPT) are obtained by using a steepest-descent approximation. The quantum effects are against the particle moving towards the destination from its original position.
