单壁碳纳米管储氢研究

摘要 利用Gaussian03程序计算出C-H键的键能是1.88eV,键长是0.113nm。已知H-H键能是4.748eV,键长是0.074nm。显然, H-H键能大于C-H键的键能,所以在常温常压下碳纳米管储氢时,以物理吸附H2分子为主,化学形式的C-H键吸附为辅。另外,利用LJ势能函数,计算了H2分子在碳纳米管中C原子所成的六边形中心正上方、C原子正上方以及相邻两C原子中间正上方时H2分子与碳纳米管之间的势能。得到无论管内、管外或者两端,都是H2分子在C原子所成的六边形中心正上方时能量最低。且在管内时H2分子距离管壁的距离是0.320nm,在管外时距离管壁的距离是0.309nm;在两端的管内时距离管壁的距离是0.324nm,在两端的管外时距离管壁的距离是0.313nm。     

Unusual Behavior of Nanocrystalline Strontium Oxide Toward Hydrogen Sulfide

The thermodynamically favored reaction of solid strontium oxide with gaseous hydrogen sulfide is kinetically enhanced to a large degree by the use of higher surface area nanocrystalline SrO in the form of brush-like collections of metal oxide fibers. An unusual feature is that the reaction SrO + H₂S SrS + H₂O proceeds stoichiometrically at room temperature, but at higher temperatures the reaction efficiency goes down, apparently due to rapid temperature induced crystal growth of the nanocrystalline SrO. The samples studied vary in crystallite size from 20 to 27nm, while average particle size (nanocrystal aggregates) varies in the following order; aerogel prepared SrO (100nm) 相似文献

The natural S U(2) action on the creation and annihilation operators satisfying twisted canonical commutation relations (TCCR) is investigated. It is shown that the Fock representation is the only covariant irreducible representation of TCCR.Partially supported by the program RP.1.10.     

Angular distribution and differential sputtering yields for low-energy light-ion irradiation of polycrystalline nickel and tungsten

Angular differential and total sputtering yields of polycrystalline nickel and tungsten have been measured for 1 and 4 keV H⁺ and 4 keV He⁺ ion bombardment at incidence angles between 0° and 80°. The differential sputtering yields (dY/dΩ) were determined with the aid of the collector technique, whereas the total yieldY was determined from the weight loss of the target during irradiation. Asymmetric angular distributions are observed at oblique angles of incidence, the emission maximum being shifted in forward direction (with respect to the incident ions). Even more pronounced than the change in shape of the emission distribution is an increase in the differential yield:dY/dΩ rises with increasing incidence angle over the whole range of ejection angles, the increase being most prominent in the direction of primary recoil emission. This effect is therefore ascribed to emission of surface atoms in direct projectile-surface atom collisions.

Insight into the chemomechanical coupling mechanism of kinesin molecular motors

Kinesin is a two-headed biological molecular motor that can walk processively on microtubule via consumption of ATP molecules. The central issue for the molecular motor is how the chemical energy released from ATP hydrolysis is converted to the kinetic energy of the mechanical motion, namely the mechanism of chemomechanical coupling. To address the issue, diverse experimental methods have been employed and a lot of models have been proposed. This review focuses on the proposed models as well as the qualitative and quantitative comparisons between the results derived from the models and those from the structural, biochemical and single-molecule experimental studies.     

Towards a unified view of fluids

It has traditionally been believed that, unlike normal fluids whose structural properties are determined primarily by the intermolecular short-range repulsive interactions, the properties of polar and associating fluids are strongly affected by the long-range Coulombic interactions. In the course of investigations to determine the primary driving forces governing the behaviour of various (non-simple) fluids, and hence to gain a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms leading to the development of theoretically based simple models and theory, extensive and systematic computer simulations have been performed on typical quadrupolar (carbon dioxide), dipolar (acetone and acetonitrile), and associating (hydrogen fluoride, methanol, and water) fluids using the available realistic effective pair potentials and their variants involving forces of different ranges. In addition to the main structural characteristics (one- and two-dimensional site–site correlation functions, local g factors, and radial slices through the full pair correlation function), the dielectric constants and the thermodynamic properties (internal energy and pressure) of both the homogeneous liquid and supercritical fluid phases, and vapor–liquid equilibria have also been considered. Furthermore, in the case of water, the diffusion coefficient and viscosity have also been considered along with water at the interface. All the obtained results lead to the unambiguous conclusion that the structure, defined in terms of the complete set of site–site correlation functions, for both polar and associating pure fluids is governed by the same molecular mechanism as for normal fluids, i.e. by the short-range interactions (which, however, may be both repulsive and attractive), whereas the long-range part of the electrostatic forces, regardless of their strength, plays only a marginal role and may be treated as a perturbation only. The consequences of these findings for theory and applications are also discussed.     

Structural characterization of pseudo-binary semiconducting alloys using molecular simulations

Monte Carlo simulations with the Keating model have been performed to predict the lattice constant and bond length variations with composition for pseudo-binary semiconducting alloys. In general, it is observed that the deviations of the lattice constants from Vegard's law predictions are larger as the lattice mismatch between the constituent binaries increases. Further, it is noted that these alloys have partial virtual crystal model characteristics and tend to be more towards the flexible (floppy) crystal limit as compared to the rigid crystal limit. The topological rigidity parameters are bond-type dependent. The angular deviations from perfect tetrahedral structure are also measured.     

Dihydrogen bond in C2H4− n Cl n ··· NaH (n = 0, 1, 2, 3) complexes: ab initio,AIM and NBO studies

The dihydrogen-bonded complexes of ethylene and its chlorine derivatives with sodium hydride have been systematically investigated at the MP2/6-311++G(d,p) level. The studied complexes are divided into three groups (including Linear, Five- and Six-membered cyclic structures) based on the optimized structures. The structural, energetic and topological parameters are presented and analysed in terms of their possible correlation with the interaction energies and the intermolecular H?···?H distances. The nature of the electrostatic interaction in this type of dihydrogen bond has also been unveiled by means of atoms in molecules (AIM) and natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. The effect of ring structure on the dihydrogen bonding systems has been considered by comparing with the corresponding linear structure. NBO analysis suggests that the electron density transfer (EDT) in cyclic structures have dual-channel character.
