Crystal growth and morphology of hindered phenol AO-60

Crystal growth of a hindered phenol compound, tetrakis [methylene-3-(3-5-ditert-butyl-4-hydroxy phenyl) propionyloxy] methane (trade name AO-60), was successfully recorded by optical microscopy (OM) equipped with a hot stage. The morphology of AO-60 crystals, grown at 100 °C from amorphous state, appeared in the form of tetragonal-sloped step growth. Further study using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) experimentally demonstrated that AO-60 crystals had a hopper-like morphology, which had occurred rarely in the condition of organic compound crystals but predominantly rather to inorganic compound crystals in the reported literatures. The morphological features observed on the crystal surfaces suggested step growth and hopper growth mechanism. Besides, a raising around the edge of the AO-60 hopper crystal was also experimentally characterized for the first time.     

Synthesis,growth mechanism and optical characterization of zinc nitride hollow structures

In this report, we describe the noncatalytic and template-free synthesis of zinc nitride (Zn₃N₂) novel microstructures with hollow interiors via simple nitridation reaction of zinc powder at optimum temperature of 600° C for 120 min in ammonia gas environment under atmospheric pressure. Hollow microstructures obtained were mostly of spherical shape with diameters in the range 8–35 μm and with open mouth on the surface. The growth mechanism has been proposed for the elucidation of hollow structures formation. Crystal structure and phase purity of the product were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) characterization and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) analysis confirmed the chemical composition of the product. Morphology of the as-prepared product was investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Ultraviolet–visible–near infrared (UV–vis–NIR) spectrophotometry was used to study the transmittance behaviour of zinc nitride microstructures and thereby an indirect optical band gap of 2.81 eV was calculated using Davis–Mott model. Room temperature photoluminescence (PL) studies exhibited two prominent peaks of the product; one very strong peak near band edge UV emission (395 nm) and other comparatively suppressed and broad peak at orange luminescence emission (670 nm).     

GaP:Mg layers grown on GaN by MOCVD

We have investigated the growth of magnesium-doped GaP (GaP:Mg) layers on GaN by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The hole carrier concentration increased linearly from 0.8×10¹⁸ to 4.2×10¹⁸ cm⁻³ as the Bis(cyclopentadienyl) magnesium (Cp₂Mg) mole flow rate increased from 1.2×10⁻⁷ to 3.6×10⁻⁷ mol/min. However, the hole carrier concentration decreased when the CP₂Mg mole flow rate was further increased. The double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXRD) rocking curves showed that the GaP:Mg layers were single crystalline at low CP₂Mg molar flow. However, the GaP:Mg layers became polycrystalline if the CP₂Mg molar flow was too high. The decrease in hole carrier concentration at high CP₂Mg molar flow was due to crystal quality deterioration of the GaP layer, which also resulted in the low hole mobility of the GaP:Mg layer.     

Polar dependence of impurity incorporation and yellow luminescence in GaN films grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition

We have investigated the unintentional impurities, oxygen and carbon, in GaN films grown on c-plane, r-plane as well as m-plane sapphire by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The GaN layer was analyzed by secondary ion mass spectroscopy. The different trend of the incorporation of oxygen and carbon has been explained in the polar (0 0 0 1), nonpolar (1 1 2¯ 0) and semipolar (1 1 2¯ 2) GaN by a combination of the atom bonding structure and the origin direction of the impurities. Furthermore, it has been found that there is a stronger yellow luminescence (YL) in GaN with higher concentration of carbon, suggesting that C-involved defects are originally responsible for the YL.     

The structure of invertible substitutions on a three-letter alphabet

We study the structure of invertible substitutions on three-letter alphabet. We show that there exists a finite set of invertible substitutions such that any invertible substitution can be written as I_wσ₁σ₂σ_k, where I_w is the inner automorphism associated with w, and for 1jk. As a consequence, M is the matrix of an invertible substitution if and only if it is a finite product of non-negative elementary matrices.

Fuzzy Model of Regional Economic Competitiveness in GIS Spatial Analysis: Case Study of Gansu, Western China

After more than 20 years of impressive development since the economic reforms in 1978, today western China is facing an increasing development gap between its regions, particularly between urban and rural areas. Using the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model, this paper aims to demonstrate the evolution of the economic competitiveness levels base on two categories of geographical unity in the province of Gansu located in Northwest China between 2000 and 2004. The results of fuzzy modeling are integrated into GIS spatiotemporal analyses in order to identify the spatial variation of each significant change in terms of the regional economic development. Our research effectively illustrates that there is a particular spatial dynamic of the economic development from region to region. Although the cities have improved very well in their economic competitiveness, the rural areas and minority regions still have a lot of progress to be achieved.
