Characteristics of vinyl iodide microwave plasma etching of GaAs/AlGaAs and InP/InGaAs heterostructures

Vinyl iodide (C₂H₃I) microwave discharges with additions of H₂ and Ar are found to provide faster etch rates than conventional CH₄/H₂/Ar discharges for InP, InGaAs, GaAs, and AlGaAs. This is a result of the relatively high volatilities of indium, gallium, and aluminum iodide species. The etched features are smooth and anisotropic over a wide range of do self-biases (–150 to –350 V), process pressures (1–20mTorr), and microwave powers (150–500 W). The polymer that forms on the mask during the plasma exposure can be readily removed in O₂ discharges. Electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA) showed that the etched surfaces are slightly deficient in the group V elements under most conditions, but changes to the optical properties of the semiconductors are minimal. No defects are visible by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in GaAs or InP samples etched at dc biases –250 V.     

Composition of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Carlina acanthifolia</Emphasis> Root Essential Oil

The root of Carlina acanthifolia All. (Asteraceae) contained 1.0% of essential oil (expressed in g per 100 g of dried plant material). Using GC and GC/MS, nine components were identified (100% of total oil). The structure of benzyl 2-furylacetylene (carlina oxide), which is the principal component of the oil (91.5%), was spectrometrically identified. __________ Published in Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 331–332, July–August, 2005.     

丙烯气相直接环氧化Au/TiO2催化剂的研究

在H2和O2共存条件下，金催化剂催化丙烯气相直接环氧化反应是近年来发展起来的一种新型环氧丙烷(PO)合成技术．本文采用沉积沉淀法制备了一系列Au／TiO2催化剂，考察了反应溶液的pH值、Au负载量、沉淀剂以及焙烧温度等因素对催化剂丙烯环氧化催化性能的影响．结果表明制备条件对催化性能有明显影响：反应溶液的pH值为7．5及Au负载量为2．4％时所得催化剂活性最好；当以Na2CO3、NaOH等含Na^ 物质作为沉淀剂时，催化性能明显优于Li^ 、K^ 等其它碱金属离子；400℃焙烧制得的催化剂活性较好，在50℃低温反应条件下，环氧丙烷得率可达1．3％．HRTEM结果表明，催化剂中Au组分高度分散于载体表面，且随着焙烧温度的增加Au粒因发生聚集而变大，从而影响了催化剂的活性．表面XPS分析证实，活性较好的Au／TiO2催化剂中活性组分Au除部分呈氧化态外，主要是以金属态的形式存在．     

煅烧温度对TiO2/SiO2混合氧化物表面酸量的影响

采用共沉淀法制备了高钛含量的复合氧化物TiO2／SiO2．用BET、XRD、FT-IR和正胺吸附等分析手段，研究了煅烧温度对TiO2／SiO2表面酸量的影响．研究发现，随着煅烧温度的升高，TiO2／SiO2表面羟基密度、比表面积逐渐减少，TiO2晶粒尺寸变大，造成TiO2／SiO2表面酸量降低．当煅烧温度达到600℃到800℃之间，表面酸量基本不再改变．     

Thermody namic functions of 1,2-alkanediols in dilute aqueous solutions

The heat capacities of binary aqueous solutions of 1,2-ethanediol, 1,2-propanediol and 1,2-butanediol were measured at temperatures ranging from 283.15 to 338.15 K by differential scanning calorimetry. The partial molar heat capacities at the infinite dilution were then calculated for the respective alkanediols. For 1,2-ethanediol or 1,2-propanediol, the partial molar heat capacities at the infinite dilution of increased with increasing temperature. In contrast, the partial molar heat capacities of 1,2-butanediol at the infinite dilution decreased with increasing temperature. Heat capacity changes by dissolution of the alkanediols were also determined. Heat capacity changes caused by the dissolution of 1,2-ethanediol or 1,2-propanediol were increase with increasing temperature. On the other hand, heat capacity changes caused by the dissolution of 1,2-butanediol are decrease with increasing temperature. Thus our results indicated that the structural changes of water caused by the dissolution of 1,2-butanediol differed from that of the two other alkanediols.

Fluorinated benzimidazo[1,2-a]quinolones

The reactions of 2-cyanomethylbenzimidazole with polyfluorobenzoyl chlorides afforded 2-(1,3-dihydrobenzimidazol-2-ylidene)-3-oxo-3-polyfluorophenylpropionitriles.
