Dependence of calculated electron effective attenuation lengths on transport mean free paths obtained from two atomic potentials

We report changes in electron effective attenuation lengths (EALs) resulting from use of transport mean free paths (TMFPs) obtained from the Dirac–Hartree–Fock (DHF) potential instead of the Thomas–Fermi–Dirac (TFD) potential in an algorithm used in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Electron Effective‐Attenuation‐Length Database (SRD 82). TMFPs from the former potential are believed to be more reliable than those obtained from the latter potential. We investigated changes in the EALs for selected photoelectron and Auger‐electron lines in four elemental solids (Si, Cu, Ag, and W), for Si 2p photoelectrons of varying energy in SiO₂, and for photoelectrons excited by Al Kα X rays in four candidate gate‐dielectric materials (HfO₂, ZrO₂, HfSiO₄, and ZrSiO₄). For each material, we computed the change in the average EAL for a range of overlayer‐film thicknesses from zero to a maximum value corresponding to attenuation of the substrate signal to 10% of its original value. This EAL change was a maximum for electrons emitted normally from the surface and decreased monotonically with increasing emission angle. The maximum EAL change varied between ?4.4% and 2.6% for the three groups of materials. We found that the maximum EAL change correlated mainly with the TMFP change. We found that TMFP changes in other solids could generally lead to maximum EAL changes between ?2.6% and 1.9% for electron energies between 500 and 2000 eV. For lower energies, the maximum EAL changes could be larger for some solids. Our revised EALs for Si 2p photoelectrons in SiO₂ excited by Mg and Al Kα X rays agree within 0.5% with values reported by Seah and Spencer from a detailed analysis of SiO₂ film‐thickness measurements by XPS and other techniques.

Gas transport through homogeneous and asymmetric polyethersulfone membranes

Both homogeneous and asymmetric polyethersulfone (PES) membranes were prepared by solvent casting. The sorption and permeation behavior of CO₂, O₂, and N₂ using these two kinds of cast PES membranes and commercially available homogeneous PES film was investigated to extract the pressure dependence of gas permeability and the permselectivity for CO₂ relative to N₂, and to confirm the validity of the working assumption that a skin layer in an asymmetric membrane can be essentially replaced by a thick homogeneous dense membrane. The pressure dependence of the mean permeability coefficient to CO₂ in homogeneous membranes obeys the dual-mode mobility model. The ideal separation factor for CO₂ relative to N₂ at an upstream pressure of 0.5 MPa attains ca. 40, while the permeability to CO₂ is about 2.7 Barrer at the same upstream pressure. The same separation factor in asymmetric membranes amounts to 35. The diffusion behavior for the skin layer in an asymmetric membrane with a thin skin layer can be simulated approximately by that in a homogeneous dense membrane. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

A Monte Carlo method for an objective Bayesian procedure

This paper describes a method for an objective selection of the optimal prior distribution, or for adjusting its hyper-parameter, among the competing priors for a variety of Bayesian models. In order to implement this method, the integration of very high dimensional functions is required to get the normalizing constants of the posterior and even of the prior distribution. The logarithm of the high dimensional integral is reduced to the one-dimensional integration of a cerain function with respect to the scalar parameter over the range of the unit interval. Having decided the prior, the Bayes estimate or the posterior mean is used mainly here in addition to the posterior mode. All of these are based on the simulation of Gibbs distributions such as Metropolis' Monte Carlo algorithm. The improvement of the integration's accuracy is substantial in comparison with the conventional crude Monte Carlo integration. In the present method, we have essentially no practical restrictions in modeling the prior and the likelihood. Illustrative artificial data of the lattice system are given to show the practicability of the present procedure.     

Computer simulation of some dynamical properties of the Lorentz gas

We carried out molecular dynamics simulations of a Lorentz gas, consisting of a lone hydrogen molecule moving in a sea of stationary argon atoms. A Lennard-Jones form was assumed for the H₂-Ar potential. The calculations were performed at a reduced temperatureK ^* =kT/_{H 2–Ar} = 4.64 and at reduced densities ^*= _{Ar Ar} ³ in the range 0.074–0.414. The placement of Ar atoms was assumed to be random rather than dictated by equilibrium considerations. We followed the trajectories of many H₂ molecules, each of which is assigned in turn a velocity given by the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution at the temperature of the simulation. Solving the equations of motion classically, we obtained the translational part of the incoherent dynamic structure factor for the H₂ molecule,S _tr(q, ). This was convoluted with the rotational structure factorS _rot(q, ) calculated assuming unhindered rotation to obtain the total structure factorS(q, ). Our results agree well with experimental data on this function obtained by Egelstaffet al. At the highest density ( ^*=0.414) we studied the dependence ofS(q, ) on system size (number of Ar atoms), number of H₂ molecules for which trajectories are generated, and the length of time over which these trajectories are followed.
