Spatiotemporal model for the progression of transgressive dunes

Transgressive dune fields, which are active sand areas surrounded by vegetation, exist on many coasts. In some regions like in Fraser Island in Australia, small dunes shrink while large ones grow, although both experience the same climatic conditions. We propose a general mathematical model for the spatiotemporal dynamics of vegetation cover on sand dunes and focus on the dynamics of transgressive dunes. Among other possibilities, the model predicts growth parallel to the wind with shrinkage perpendicular to the wind, where, depending on geometry and size, a transgressive dune can initially grow although eventually shrink. The larger is the initial area the slower its stabilization process. The model’s predictions are supported by field observations from Fraser Island in Australia.     

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.     

High performance Zn–Sn–O thin film transistors with Cu source/drain electrode

Zn–Sn–O (ZTO) thin film transistors (TFTs) were fabricated with a Cu source/drain electrode. Although a reasonably high mobility (μ_FE) of 13.2 cm²/Vs was obtained for the ZTO TFTs, the subthreshold gate swing (SS) and threshold voltage (V_th) of 1.1 V/decade and 9.1 V, respectively, were inferior. However, ZTO TFTs with Ta film inserted as a diffusion barrier, exhibited improved SS and V_th values of 0.48 V/decade and 3.0 V, respectively as well as a high μ_FE value of 18.7 cm²/Vs. The improvement in the Ta‐inserted device was attributed to the suppression of Cu lateral diffusion into the ZTO channel region. (© 2013 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Transmission and small angle scattering of 15 MeV electrons in silicon single crystals

Abstract

A novel technique for the study of structural damage incurred by single crystal silicon targets during ion implantation is described. The method is based upon copper-decoration of the vacancy rich damaged region, followed by radiochemical measurement of the resulting copper distribution. Utilizing neutron activation, sharply peaked radiocopper profiles are obtained, which are believed to represent the depth distributions of large, relatively immobile defects such as vacancy clusters, voids, or crystalline faults. A more efficient decoration of isolated vacancy-type defects is realized when Wu is employed as a radioisotopic tracer in the decoration step, however, the rapid diffusivity of these smaller species leads to less sharply defined radiocopper profiles. Both the neutron activation and radiotracer modifications of the technique yield damage profiles which are significantly shallower than the corresponding implanted impurity profiles.

15N-Traceruntersuchungen zum Mechanismus der N2O-Bildung in Böden

Nitrous oxide is a potential environmental hazard responsible for the green house effect and the destruction of the ozone layer in the lower stratosphere. Biological denitrification under anaerobic conditions in soils results in the formation of both N₂O and N₂, whereby highly nitrogen-fertilized agricultural soils contribute to a considerable extent of the N₂O emission. Latest results in the literature indicate that nitrous oxide can also be formed as a byproduct of the microbial nitrification. This is of importance for soils in central Germany because of the non-existence of typical denitrification conditions in a semiaride climate.

This study was conducted to measure the path of N₂O formation in Haplic Phaeozen: using [¹⁵N] ammonium and [¹⁵N] nitrat and a GC-MS aided incubation system. The kinetic isotope method was used to evaluate the experimental data. The results are:

- Under anaerobic conditions (～ 90% of the water holding capacity = WHC) N₂O originates mainly from the nitrate pool by denitrification.

- As expected, the N₂O formation is low under aerobic conditions (～ 80% WHC) but the gas originates directly from the ammonium and not from the nitrate pool, probably as a byproduct of the nitrification process.     

Analytical Study of Raw Materials of Zinc Oxide Used for Enamels on Industrial Ceramics: Quantitative Analysis of Zinc,Lead, and Sulfur in These Samples by X‐ray Fluorescence and Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry

An analytical study is carried out to optimize X‐ray fluorescence (XRF) and flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) quantitative analysis of Zn, Pb, and S in ZnO samples commonly used to obtain industrial ceramic enamels. Pb and S in the raw materials often contaminate ZnO and are very detrimental in industrial applications. Thus, very accurate analytical determination of these elements in ceramic samples is extremely important. First of all, a mineralogical study by X‐ray diffraction (XRD) on the different components in these raw materials and the materials produced during the firing process is performed in order to establish the mineral forms in a reference sample for analysis by XRF spectrometry. The working conditions are optimized for XRF multielemental analysis, using the sample in the form of pellets, due to high loss on ignition (LOI) values. The preparation of suitable standards and working conditions for FAAS analysis have also been optimized. The content of these elements was determined by FAAS for the reference sample and several samples for industrial use, and the results were compared with those obtained by XRF. Comparison of the results obtained from XRF and FAAS analysis of Pb and Zn show more accurate values for FAAS. For ZnO, an accuracy of 0.11% with ±0.1% precision by FAAS and 0.46% accuracy with ±0.2% precision by XRF are found. For PbO, 1.06% accuracy and ±0.06% precision using FAAS and 5.6% accuracy and ±0.35% precision by XRF were found. For SO₃ determined only by XRF, accuracy was 4.76% with ±0.25% precision. These values are highly satisfactory given that these two elements are only found in small proportions.     

Determination of Chloride Content in Different Types of Cement Using Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

The characterization and accurate determination of the chloride content in cement/concrete is very important for the assessment of the durability and safety of a concrete structure. The available analytical techniques are relatively expensive and time consuming. In this study, a laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) system was used for determination of elemental composition in three different types of cement samples. The plasma was generated by focusing a pulsed Nd: YAG laser at 1064 nm on the cement samples. The concentrations of different elements of significance for structural stability in cement samples were determined. The evaluation of the potential and the capabilities of LIBS as a rapid tool for characterization of cement samples is discussed. The optimum LIBS setup and experimental conditions to detect and measure chloride in building materials are reported. The LIBS results were compared with the results obtained using a standard analytical technique such as inductively coupled plasma emission spectroscopy (ICP–ES). The limits of detection were determined, and calibration curves were measured. The results of this investigation indicate the reliability of LIBS to characterize different cement samples and to assess the chloride content in these cements.
