Dynamic probe of ZnTe(110) surface by scanning tunneling microscopy

The reconstructed surface structure of the II–VI semiconductor ZnTe (110), which is a promising material in the research field of semiconductor spintronics, was studied by scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/STS). First, the surface states formed by reconstruction by the charge transfer of dangling bond electrons from cationic Zn to anionic Te atoms, which are similar to those of IV and III–V semiconductors, were confirmed in real space. Secondly, oscillation in tunneling current between binary states, which is considered to reflect a conformational change in the topmost Zn–Te structure between the reconstructed and bulk-like ideal structures, was directly observed by STM. Third, using the technique of charge injection, a surface atomic structure was successfully fabricated, suggesting the possibility of atomic-scale manipulation of this widely applicable surface of ZnTe.     

Self-Irradiation Cascade Simulations in Plutonium Metal: Model Behavior at High Energy

The Modified Embedded Atom Method model for Pu metal is revised so that it more accurately captures the behavior of the Ziegler-Biersack-Littmark model of ion-ion interactions. Two revision are tested with somewhat different stiffnesses in the 2-1000 eV range. The revised models show higher damage levels at 20 KeV than an earlier model, suggesting that the behavior of the models above 100 eV is dominating damage production, at least in the earlier stages of the cascade. Work was performed at Los Alamos National Laboratory under the auspices of the US Department of Energy, under contract DE-AC52-06NA25396.     

甲基丙烯酸三氟乙酰氧乙酯的聚合

对甲基丙烯酸三氟乙酰氧乙酯(TFAOEMA)的阴离子聚合及原予转移自由基聚合进行了研究。常用的阴离于引发剂如丁基锂、1，1-二苯基已基锂等很难引发TFAOEMA的阴离子聚合，而碱性较弱的引发剂如三乙基铝却容易引发，且产率较高。以氯化亚铜、五甲基二乙基三胺、溴代丙酸乙酯为引发体系的TFAOEMA的本体原子转移自由基聚合符合活性聚合特征。但在四氢呋喃为溶剂的原子转移自由基聚合中却存在活性中心失活现象。以末端含卤素的聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯为大分子引发剂，引发TFAOEMA的原子转移自由基聚合，得到了含氟双嵌段聚合物。

Preparation of branched polyacrylonitrile through self‐condensing vinyl copolymerization

Branched polyacrylonitrile (PAN) was prepared through a self‐condensing vinyl copolymerization of acrylonitrile and 2‐(2‐bromopropionyloxy)ethyl acrylate (BPEA). The branched architecture of the product was confirmed by NMR spectra and the average degree of branching (DB ) was estimated. Through a comparison of the intrinsic viscosity of the product with that of its linear analogue, the contraction factor g′ was calculated. It was found that the viscosity of the branched PAN was obviously lower that that of linear PAN. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008     

The desorption of O2 during NO and N2O decomposition on Cu- and Fe-zeolites

The decomposition of NO and of N₂O over a CuZSM-5 zeolite and a Fe-mordenite, respectively, has been studied using tracer techniques. The results demonstrate the high mobility of the lattice oxygen ions in self-diffusion. They afford a possible explanation for the problem of how two extralattice oxygens located at positions remote from each other may combine to form the O₂ molecules which are spontaneously desorbed in these redox reactions. They show that a portion of the lattice oxygen mixes into the O₂ released on decomposition. The data also show that N¹⁸O and N₂ ¹⁸O undergo exchange with the catalyst oxygen under reaction conditions.On leave from Central Research Institute for Chemistry, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, H-1525 Budapest, Hungary.     

SOLUTION BEHAVIOUR OF VARIOUS ALLOYING ELEMENTS IN Ni_3Si

The solid solubilities of 15 common alloying elements added to the Ll_2-type intermetalliccompound Ni_3Si at 900°C have been estimated,and their substitution modes have been de-duced from the direction of solubility lobe of the compound.It is shown that the alloyingbehaviours in Ni_3Si are determined by both size and electronic factors,i.e.,the substitutionmode is governed by electronic configuration and solubility by the both.An interactionparameter is presented to describe quantitatively the influence of electronic configuration onsubstitution mode and the solubility limit can be successfully explained together with atom radius.     

对3种典型铝硅合金熔体温度处理的对比分析

对3种典型成分的铝硅合金(Al-20%Si、Al-12%Si和Al-7%Si)进行了熔体温度处理凝固组织变化规律的比较研究.结果表明: 在Al-12%Si共晶合金熔体处理组织中存在α枝晶与初晶硅共存以及α枝晶在一定处理条件下可以完全消失的现象; 3种成分Al-Si合金的α枝晶及初晶硅的形态尺寸随过热温度、静置时间增加出现周期性的变化规律, 出现最小尺寸的温度、时间并不完全一致; 熔体温度处理对Al-7%Si中枝晶大小、形态等有一定影响, 但细化效果不明显.在铝硅合金中, 硅原子微观有序团簇和铝有序偏聚原子团簇可能存在于不同的温度区间, 铝有序偏聚原子团簇存在的温度区间更靠近温度轴, 硅原子微观有序团簇具有比铝有序偏聚原子团簇更强的结合能.     

Properties of poly(n‐butyl methacrylate) prepared by reverse atom transfer radical polymerization in an aqueous dispersed system

Reverse atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of n‐butyl methacrylate (BMA) in waterborne media using Cu(II) complexes with azo initiators (i.e., reverse ATRP) was conducted. The influence of several factors, such as surfactant, catalyst, and reaction time, on the stability of the emulsion, the particle size, the morphology of the emulsion particles, and the control of the polymerization was investigated. The results showed great differences between ATRP and conventional emulsion polymerization, especially the nucleation mechanism and the kinetics. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
