Disordered kalsilite KAlSiO4

The X‐ray powder diffraction pattern that corresponds to the disordered state of kalsilite (potassium aluminium orthosilicate), KAlSiO₄, is investigated. The directionality of (Al,Si)O₄ tetrahedra within single six‐membered tetrahedral ring building units (S6R) could not be defined. With equal probability for the directionality of each tetrahedra within one S6R [free apex pointing up (U) or down (D)], an undefined sequence of U and D directionalities is needed to describe the S6R building units. The extinction conditions of disordered kalsilite are also different compared to ordered kalsilite within the space group P6₃. In disordered kalsilite, h0l and hhl reflections with l = 2n + 1 are systematically absent.     

Quartz crystal microbalance simulation of the directionality of Si etching in CF4 glow discharges

Two quartz crystal microbalances have been mounted in a planar rf discharge system in such a way that the potential of the microbalances with respect to the glow discharge can be varied. This apparatus allows a rapid simulation of the etching directionality that can be expected in real pattern transfer situations in that operating one microbalance at ground and one at a negative potential gives a measure of the sidewall and vertical etch rates, respectively. The voltage threshold for ion-assisted etching has been determined to be 20 V which is the approximate value of the plasma potential in this asymmetric system.

Effects of Structural Variations on the Cellular Response and Mechanical Properties of Biocompatible,Biodegradable, and Porous Smectic Liquid Crystal Elastomers

The authors report on series of side‐chain smectic liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) cell scaffolds based on star block‐copolymers featuring 3‐arm, 4‐arm, and 6‐arm central nodes. A particular focus of these studies is placed on the mechanical properties of these LCEs and their impact on cell response. The introduction of diverse central nodes allows to alter and custom‐modify the mechanical properties of LCE scaffolds to values on the same order of magnitude of various tissues of interest. In addition, it is continued to vary the position of the LC pendant group. The central node and the position of cholesterol pendants in the backbone of ε‐CL blocks (alpha and gamma series) affect the mechanical properties as well as cell proliferation and particularly cell alignment. Cell directionality tests are presented demonstrating that several LCE scaffolds show cell attachment, proliferation, narrow orientational dispersion of cells, and highly anisotropic cell growth on the as‐synthesized LCE materials.

     

Influence of pad shape on self-alignment in electronic packaging

Anisotropic self-alignment of the noncircular pads is investigated to reduce the misalignment in electronic packaging, and the effects of the direction and length ratio of the noncircular pads are analyzed. The restoring forces of circular and noncircular pads are calculated numerically using the surface evolver and are compared with the experimental data. The restoring force in the minor-axis direction of the noncircular pad becomes largest followed by the circular pad and the major-axis direction of the noncircular pad. Directionality increases with the length ratio, which implies that more accurate alignment can be achieved in the specific direction.     

部分相干厄米-高斯列阵光束通过湍流大气传输的方向性

推导出了部分相干厄米-高斯(H-G)列阵光束通过湍流大气传输的二阶矩束宽和远场发散角的解析公式。采用远场发散角作为光束方向性的评价参数,研究了部分相干H-G列阵光束通过湍流大气传输的方向性。研究表明:在一定条件下,部分相干H-G列阵光束与对应的高斯光束不论在自由空间还是湍流大气中均具有相同的方向性。此外,进一步研究发现,在自由空间中,由远场发散角和归一化远场平均光强分布所表征的部分相干H-G列阵光束的方向性是不一致的,但湍流可以使得两种描述相一致。这一结论与高斯-谢尔模型(GSM)列阵光束的相关结论存在差异。在自由空间中,与高斯光束具有相同远场发散角的非相干合成的GSM列阵光束与对应的高斯光束具有相同的归一化远场光强分布。     

Magnitude and origin of the attraction and directionality of the halogen bonds of the complexes of C6F5X and C6H5X (X = I, Br, Cl and F) with pyridine

The geometries and interaction energies of complexes of pyridine with C₆F₅X, C₆H₅X (X=I, Br, Cl, F and H) and R_FI (R_F=CF₃, C₂F₅ and C₃F₇) have been studied by ab initio molecular orbital calculations. The CCSD(T) interaction energies (E_int) for the C₆F₅X–pyridine (X=I, Br, Cl, F and H) complexes at the basis set limit were estimated to be ?5.59, ?4.06, ?2.78, ?0.19 and ?4.37 kcal mol^?1, respectively, whereas the E_int values for the C₆H₅X–pyridine (X=I, Br, Cl and H) complexes were estimated to be ?3.27, ?2.17, ?1.23 and ?1.78 kcal mol^?1, respectively. Electrostatic interactions are the cause of the halogen dependence of the interaction energies and the enhancement of the attraction by the fluorine atoms in C₆F₅X. The values of E_int estimated for the R_FI–pyridine (R_F=CF₃, C₂F₅ and C₃F₇) complexes (?5.14, ?5.38 and ?5.44 kcal mol^?1, respectively) are close to that for the C₆F₅I–pyridine complex. Electrostatic interactions are the major source of the attraction in the strong halogen bond although induction and dispersion interactions also contribute to the attraction. Short‐range (charge‐transfer) interactions do not contribute significantly to the attraction. The magnitude of the directionality of the halogen bond correlates with the magnitude of the attraction. Electrostatic interactions are mainly responsible for the directionality of the halogen bond. The directionality of halogen bonds involving iodine and bromine is high, whereas that of chlorine is low and that of fluorine is negligible. The directionality of the halogen bonds in the C₆F₅I– and C₂F₅I–pyridine complexes is higher than that in the hydrogen bonds in the water dimer and water–formaldehyde complex. The calculations suggest that the C? I and C? Br halogen bonds play an important role in controlling the structures of molecular assemblies, that the C? Cl bonds play a less important role and that C? F bonds have a negligible impact.
