Universality of entropy principle for a general diffeomorphism-covariant purely gravitational theory

Thermodynamics plays an important role in gravitational theories. It is a principle that is independent of gravitational dynamics, and there is still no rigorous proof to show that it is consistent with the dynamical principle. We consider a self-gravitating perfect fluid system with the general diffeomorphism-covariant purely gravitational theory. Based on the Noether charge method proposed by Iyer and Wald, considering static off/on-shell variational configurations, which satisfy the gravitational constraint equation, we rigorously prove that the extrema of the total entropy of a perfect fluid inside a compact region for a fixed total particle number demands that the static configuration is an on-shell solution after we introduce some appropriate boundary conditions, i.e., it also satisfies the spatial gravitational equations. This means that the entropy principle of the fluid stores the same information as the gravitational equation in a static configuration. Our proof is universal and holds for any diffeomorphism-covariant purely gravitational theories, such as Einstein gravity, \begin{document}$ f(R)$\end{document} gravity, Lovelock gravity, f(Gauss-Bonnet) gravity and Einstein-Weyl gravity. Our result indicates the consistency between ordinary thermodynamics and gravitational dynamics.

Diode laser measurement of line strengths and air-broadening coefficients of CO2 and CO in the 1.57 μm region for combustion diagnostics

Spectral measurements of two line pairs of CO₂ and CO in the temperature range 300–1000 K at 1.573 µm were performed using a fiber-coupled distributed feedback (DFB) diode laser. The two line pairs can be used in a tunable diode laser (TDL) absorption sensor for simultaneously detecting CO₂ and CO gas in a single scan of the diode laser. The spectral parameters (line strengths, air-broadening coefficients and the temperature exponent n) of the two pairs are presented. The measured data agree well with existing databases (HITRAN 2004 and HITRAN 2008), the discrepancies being less than 5% for most of the probed transitions. Although the HITRAN database is a useful tool for sensor design, we found that laboratory measurements of the spectroscopic data for the line pair selected for high-temperature sensors are necessary for establishing the uncertainty for accurate measurements.     

Synthesis of Fluorinated Graphene Oxide and its Amphiphobic Properties

The richly functionalized basal plane bonded to polar organic moieties makes graphene oxide (GO) innately hydrophilic. Here, a methodology to synthesize fluorinated graphene oxide by oxidizing the basal plane of fluorinated graphite, allowing for tunable hydrophobicity of GO, is reported. Fluorine exists as tertiary alkyl fluorides covalently bonded to graphitic carbons, and using magic‐angle spinning (MAS) ¹³C NMR as a primary tool chemical structures for the two types of synthesized fluorinated graphene oxides (FGOs) with significantly different fluorine contents are proposed. The low surface energy of the C–F bond drastically affects GO's wetting behavior, leading to amphiphobicity in its highly fluorinated form. Ease of solution processing enables the fabrication of inks that are spray‐painted on various porous/non‐porous substrates. These coatings maintain amphiphobicity for solvents with surface tensions down to 59 dyn/cm, thus bypassing existing lithographic means to create similar surfaces. The approach towards fluorinating GO and fabricating graphene‐based surfaces with tunable wettability opens the path towards unique, accessible, carbon‐based amphiphobic coatings.     

Structures,stabilities and electronic properties of boron-doped silicon clusters B3Sin (n=1–17) and their anions

The structures, stabilities and electronic properties of neutral and anionic B₃Si_n (n?=?1–17) clusters have been systemically investigated on the basis of density functional theory at the B3LYP/6-311?+?G(d) level and CALYPSO structure prediction method. The structural searches show that three boron atoms tend to form B₃ triangle encapsulated into Si_n cages with the increasing number of silicon atoms. Most of the lowest energy structures can be derived by using the squashed pentagonal bipyramid structure of B₃Si₄ and B₃Si₄^? as the major building unit. The relative stabilities are studied based on the calculated binding energies, second-order difference of energies and HOMO–LUMO gaps of the lowest energy structures. In addition, Hirshfeld, natural population analysis, Bader approaches and natural electronic configuration are performed to explore the charge transfer. At last, molecular orbital, magnetic properties, IR, Raman and UV–vis spectra are also, respectively, analysed for providing strong support for essential theoretical and experimental research.

Tribological Behavior of Multiply-Alkylated Cyclopentanes (MACs)-Cu Nanoparticles Composite Thin Film

Multiply-alkylated cyclopentanes (MACs) composite thin films containing Cu nanoparticles are fabricated on the octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS)-modified substrate by a spin-coating technique. The thickness, wetting behavior, and nanoscale morphologies of the films are characterized by means of ellipsometry, contact angle measurement, and atomic force microscope (AFM). The friction and wear behaviors of the thin films sliding against Si₃N₄ ball are examined on a UMT-2MT tribometer in a ball-on-disk contact mode. The worn surfaces of the OTS-MAC-Cu composite film and the counterpart Si₃N₄ balls are investigated with a scanning electron microscope. Water contact angle on OTS-MAC-Cu composite film is higher than that of OTS-MAC film. OTS-MAC-Cu composite film exhibits higher load-carrying capacity and better friction reduction and antiwear behavior as compared with OTS-MAC film. This may be attributed to the load-carrying and self-repairing property of the Cu nanoparticles in the composite film and the formation of a transfer layer composed of OTS, MAC, and Cu on the rubbing surface of the counterpart ball.
