Chemical vapor deposition of aluminum for ulsi applications

Aluminum has been used widely as a conducting material in the fabrication of integrated circuits, and chemical vapor deposition process for Al has been actively investigated for the application in ultra large scale integration. In this review, various precursors, mainly alkyl aluminum and alane compounds, and reaction mechanisms of these precursors in Al CVI) are described. Epitaxial growth and selectivity of the deposition are also discussed. In addition to thermal reactions, plasma and photochemical reactions are also briefly described.     

饮用水氯化中氯仿形成的动力学模式

以黄腐酸（ＦＡ）为卤仿前驱物质，分别测定不同投氯量、ＴＯＣ水平、温度以及ｐＨ值对ＣＨＣｌ３形成速率的影响，确定出ＣＨＣｌ３形成的动力学模式。该模式可用于预测投氯后的管网水中ＣＨＣｌ３的形成量，以便采取必要措施保证饮用水符合国家规定ＣＨＣｌ３〈６０μｇ／Ｌ的标准。

Intelligent Control of Consolidation and Solidification Processes

Intelligent processing of materials (IPM) deals with the integration of process models and in situ sensors into an intelligent process controller to achieve desired material properties. IPM-based control systems recently have been developed for both consolidation and solidification processes. This article explores the application of models based on the finite- element method (FEM) to develop process actuation systems, to design process schedules and component shape, and to develop a control model with which to control the process. The results in this article were presented at the AeroMat ’93 Advanced Aerospace Materials/Processes Conference and Exposition, Anaheim, CA, 7–10 June 1993

Fischer-Tropsch synthesis on Fe-Mn ultrafine catalysts

The Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis on Fe-Mn ultrafine catalysts prepared by a special degradation method of Fe-Mn complexes is presented. The effects of preparation method and Mn content on the FT performance are examined and the active phases and the role of Mn are elucidated.     

Oxidation of methane over platinum in a solid proton-conducting electrolyte cell

Studies of the complete oxidation of methane on a Pt electrode-catalyst in the cell with a solid proton-conducting electrolyte (CH₄ + O₂, Pt ¦ SrCe_0.92Dy_0.08O₃ ¦ Pt, H₂O + N₂) were carried out. The non-Faradaic effect of electrochemical hydrogen pumping on the rate of methane oxidation has been demonstrated. The induced change in the reaction rate at anodic polarization of a Pt electrode-catalyst was over two orders of magnitude higher than the rate of hydrogen pumping from the reaction zone through the electrolyte.     

Zirconium tetra-n-butylate modified with different organic acids: Hydrolysis and polymerization of the products

In this work, (a) complexation reaction of zirconium tetra-n-butylate, Zr(OBu ⁿ )₄, with MAc and different organic acids, (b) the hydrolysis reaction of modified Zr species, and (c) the polymerization reaction of complex products are studied. Zr(OBu ⁿ )₄ was reacted with different mole ratios of methacrylic acid (MAc) at room temperature and the maximum combination ratio was found to be 1:2 [Zr(OBu ⁿ )₄:MAc] by FT-IR. The modification of zirconium tetra-n-butylate with the acid mixtures [methacrylic acid-acetic acid (MeCOOH), methacrylic acid-propionic acid (EtCOOH), methacrylic acid-butyric acid (PrCOOH)] was made for a combination ratio of 1:1:1 [MAc:RCOOH:Zr(OBu ⁿ )₄; R: Me, Et, Pr] and the products were characterized by¹H-NMR, FT-IR, and UV spectroscopies. Following their synthesis, hydrolysis of the complexes with various amounts of water and polymerization with benzoyl peroxide were realized. The hydrolysis and polymerization products of the complexes were studied by Karl-Fischer coulometric titration and thermal analysis, respectively. Methyl ethyl ketone(MEK) and chloroform were chosen as solvents.     

Homology modelling of annexin I: implicit solvation improves side-chain prediction and combination of evaluation criteria allows recognition of different types of conformational error

Annexin I homology models were built from the annexin V crystalstructure. Three methods for side-chain prediction were testedbased on molecular mechanics conformational search, the useof a rotamer database, or a combination of these two methods.We showed that rotamer-based methods were more efficient andthat molecular mechanics energy minimizations, prior to rotamerselection, did not afford clearly improved predictions. Modelsbuilt in vacuo and with an implicit solvation term were comparedwith the annexin I crystal structure which became availableduring the course of this study. The analysis of solvation energies,root mean square deviations, Xi angles and hydrogen bonds showedthat models built with implicit solvation were of better quality.In annexin V, repeat III displays A-B and D-E loop conformationsquite different from other repeats. Since the sequence differencessuggest that repeat III in annexin I might present a conformationsimilar to other repeats, two annexin I models with differentrepeat III conformations were built and compared to determinewhether the correct conformation could have been predicted.We show that using a combination of evaluation criteria, itis possible to discriminate unequivocally between the nativeand the incorrect fold, stressing that only one criterion shouldnot be used to evaluate protein structures.
