Medium control in a competitive hydrogen bonding system

Infrared spectroscopic analysis of solutions containing 4-hydroxyacetophenone (HAP) and the model surfactant 2-(2-hexyloxyethoxy)ethanol (HOEE) reveal a medium dependent hydrogen bonding competition between homomolecular association ([HAP]_n + [HOEE]_n) and heteromolecular association ([HAP-HOEE]_n) with the former being favoured by low polarity solvents.     

Two lane traffic simulations using cellular automata

We examine a simple two-lane cellular automaton based upon the single-lane CA introduced by Nagel and Schreckenberg. We point out important parameters defining the shape of the fundamental diagram. Moreover we investigate the importance of stochastic elements with respect to real life traffic.     

Thermodynamics and weak cosmic censorship conjecture of BTZ black holes in extended phase space

As a charged fermion drops into a BTZ black hole, the laws of thermodynamics and the weak cosmic censorship conjecture are investigated in both the normal and extended phase space, where the cosmological parameter and renormalization length are regarded as extensive quantities. In the normal phase space, the first and second law of thermodynamics, and the weak cosmic censorship are found to be valid. In the extended phase space, although the first law and weak cosmic censorship conjecture remain valid, the second law is dependent on the variation of the renormalization energy d K. Moreover, in the extended phase space, the configurations of extremal and near-extremal black holes are not changed, as they are stable, while in the normal phase space, the extremal and near-extremal black holes evolve into non-extremal black holes.     

Retention Mechanism of Phenolic Compounds in Subcritical Water Chromatography

The transfer enthalpies and entropies of hydroxyl and nitryl in different mobile phase systems were compared by van't Hoff curve. Results suggest that the presence of acetonitrile and methanol in the mobile phase may decrease the interaction of solute and stationary phase with respect to subcritical water, thereby reducing the contribution of enthalpy to the retention. Retention mechanisms of phenolic compound appear to be more similar in subcritical water and water/methanol systems on the PRP-1 column. Hydrogen bond in subcritical water system plays a very important role in the retention of the phenols.     

Effect of sputtering power on surface topography of dc magnetron sputtered Ti thin films observed by AFM

Titanium films were deposited on glass substrates at room temperature by direct current (dc) magnetron sputtering at fixed Ar pressure of 1.7 Pa and sputtering time of 4 min with different sputtering power ranging from 100 to 300 W. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to study topographic characteristics of the films, including crystalline feature, grain size, clustering and roughening. The amorphous-like microstructure feature has been observed at 100-150 W and the transition of crystal microstructure from amorphous-like to crystalline state occurs at 200 W. The increase in grain size of Ti films with the sputtering power (from 200 to 300 W) has been confirmed by AFM characterization. In addition, higher sputtering power (300 W) leads to the transformation of crystal texture from globular-like to hexagonal type. The study has shown that higher sputtering power results in the non-linear increase in deposition rate of Ti films. Good correlativity between the surface roughness parameters including root mean square (RMS) roughness, surface mean height (Ra) and maximum peak to valley height (P-V) for evaluating the lateral feature of the films has been manifested. Surface roughness has an increasing trend at 100-250 W, and then drops up to 300 W.     

Studies on the full vibrational energies and dissociation energies of some heteronuclear diatomic molecules

A parameter-free analytical formula for dissociation energies of diatomic molecules is proposed by Fan and Sun (2009) [20] based on LeRoy and Bernstein's vibrational energy expression near dissociation limit. Using three highest vibrational energies which may be generated by the algebraic method (AM) presented in our previous study and by some other physical methods, the new formula is applied to study the molecular dissociation energies of 10 electronic states of KH, ⁷LiD, ⁷LiH, ⁶LiH, NaK, NaLI and NaRb heteronuclear diatomic molecules which have regular (Morse-like) potentials in this work. The results show that the AM energies and dissociation energies have excellent agreement with experimental values.
