The interaction between the dislocation line and superconducting orderparameter via gauge field is discussed. In this paper the principle is a conservation law of Burgers vectors for dislocation lines. The formulationis analogous to well known electro-magnetic gauge theory. Owing to the phase of order-parameter is coupled to the gauge field with respect to dislocation line, a new type of fulxoid is quantized. Moreover this theory gives an interpretation for the magnetic flux pinning mechanism.

グラニュラー・アイス方式の氷蓄熱システムの可能性を探るため、グラニュラー・アイス連続生成実験を行った。比重が1より小さく、かつ非水溶性の低温不凍液中に水を滴下することにより、粒状の氷を連続的に生成することができた。現状では、溶液温度が低過ぎるため、製氷時のCOPの低下を招く恐れがある。そのため、0℃により近い温度におけるグラニュラー・アイス生成を可能とするような工夫が必要であるとの結論に達した。

The electrical and optical properties of nanostructured Ge and Si are different from those of bulk materials. We investigated the properties of Ge films deposited by a cluster-beam technique mainly using Raman spectroscopy as well the techniques of AFM, TEM, XRD, PL, XPS and optical absorption. The Ge films were deposited on Si and quartz substrates at room (Ge-RT) and liquid nitrogen (Ge-LNT) temperatures. AFM images showed the presence of nanostructures in Ge-LNT and smooth surfaces in Ge-RT. Raman spectroscopy showed two modes at 266cm^-1 and 271cm^-1 for both films, which are different from that of a diamond structure of Ge (300cm^-1). Ge-RT films showed a line at 300cm^-1 by annealing the films above 700°C, while Ge-LNT did not produce such a line up to the 700°C annealing temperature. And Ge-LNT films were quickly oxided by the UV light and showed a blue PL emission at 2.9eV.

The kind and extent of the contributions of dominant factors for a lattice constant were studied concerning AB₂ Laves phase intermetallic compounds with a cubic-C15 and a hexagonal-C14 type structure containing IV or V groups as A atom. It was found that the dominant factors were atomic radii, electronegativities, and valence electron numbers of A and B atoms. It was possible to replace these dominant factors with the following ones: Atomic radii of A and B atoms, by the average atomic radius r_av and the atomic radius ratio r_A/r_B; Electronegativities of A and B atoms, by the average electronegativity χ_av and the difference of electronegativity of A and B atom Δχ_B-A; The valence electron numbers of A and B atoms, by the average valence electron D_av and the difference of the valence electron of A and B atoms ΔD_B-A. On the other hand, the extent of the contribution of dominant factors for the C14 type structure differed from the C15 type. In C15-type compounds, the contribution of the atomic radius of A and B atoms was very large; the contributions of electronegativity and the valence electron of A and B atoms were not more than 10%. In contrast, in C14 type compounds the contribution of the atomic radius was about 50%, that of electronegativity was about 35%, and that of the valence electron about 15%. Consequently, C14 type compounds have more ionic and covalent bond character than the C15-type.

A new type solar still (85×70×25cm³) has been constructed, which is called as the “tilted-tray, wick type solar still with a condenser room”. A new material “SOLAR-α” has been utilized as the wick, which was manufactured by UNITIKA LTD. Performance tests have been made under a solar simulator in the laboratory. It was found that (1) the distillation productivity linearly increases in proportion to the irradiation intensity I, (2) there is an optimum saline-water flow rate which results in the maximum productivity, and (3) its value (about 30ml/min per 1m² evaporating area) is almost independent of I. The additional condenser room, however, has a little effect on the procuctivity, especially in the small I. Discussions have been made on the improvement of the still.
