非对称双原子分子在输运扩散中的取向效应

本文建立了同时具有化学势梯度和温度梯度的非平衡系统,研究非对称双原子分子的输运扩散行为.研究发现,双原子分子在非平衡输运中具有取向效应.浓度梯度与温度梯度使双原子分子在输运中产生的大小原子取向的方向刚好相反,沿着梯度的正方向,前者使小原子在前,后者使大原子在前.通过最小熵产生原理,解释了取向的物理机制.研究结果对于深刻理解非平衡条件下物质的输运与其形态的关系具有理论意义.     

Collective diffusion in carbon nanotubes: Crossover between one dimension and three dimensions

Using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo methods, we study the collective diffusion of helium in carbon nanotubes. The results show that the collective diffusion coefficient(CDC) increases with the dimension of the channel. The collective diffusion coefficient has a linear relationship with the temperature and the concentration. There exist a ballistic transport in short carbon nanotubes and a diffusive transport in long carbon nanotubes. Fick's law has an invalid region in the nanoscale channel.
