The theoretical model proposed earlier, which assumes that protein molecules in the surface layer can exist in multiple conformations with different molar area, so far has been applied to the equilibrium isotherms of surface pressure, adsorption, and adsorption layer thickness. Here we use the model for the surface di…
The Raman scattering due to confined acoustic vibrations in metal particles is studied theoretically. Various coupling mechanisms between the surface plasmon--polaritons and the confined vibrations are investigated. Their relative contribution to the light scattering is discussed. We found that two mechanisms play an…
Abstract Chemical scale inhibitors are commonly used to prevent or inhibit scale formation in production. The most economic treatment of scale inhibitor is normally via chemical squeeze. However, there is little agreement regarding the primary mechanism by which the threshold scale inhibitors are retained in producing…
The effects of H on the cross-slip process of a dissociated screw dislocation in nickel are studied by atomistic simulations using a configuration-space-path technique. We find that H binding in the stacking fault exerts no effect on the activation energy of cross-slip. H that is bound to the cores of the partial disl…

The crystal structure of natural rubber has been studied by many researchers including Bunn and Nyburg. However, the accepted crystal structure has not been reported. In the present study, the X-ray crystal structure analysis was carried out by using an imaging plate at −50 °C. Four molecular chains with STS̄cisS̄TSci…
New adsorbents were prepared and tested for the separation of propane-propylene mixtures by adsorption. The ordered mesoporous material SBA-15 was used as the starting material for silver-ion deposition for pi-complexation with propylene. Two different loadings of silver were evaluated. Adsorption equilibrium and kine…
Particle mobility, aggregate structure, and the mechanism of aggregate growth at the two-dimensional level have been of long-standing interest. Here, we use solid-stabilized emulsions as a model system to investigate the mobility of charged microparticles at poly(dimethylsiloxane) (oil)-water interfaces using confocal…
Porous metal-oxide filaments were readily fabricated using hydrophobic silk as template via the surface sol−gel process, followed by removal of the organic components. Such biotemplated porous matrixes were employed as nanoreactors for in situ synthesis of gold nanoparticles by NaBH 4 reduction of the incorporated gol…
The basal spacings of sodium montmorillonite (MMT) dispersed in various solvents and monomers were measured via X-ray diffraction. Some liquids with strong hydrogen-bonding groups (δ h ) showed little suspended MMT, but liquids with moderate or poor hydrogen-bonding groups precipitated MMT completely, this indicates t…
Interstitial water and oxygen molecules are ubiquitous impurities and participate in various defect formation processes in thermally grown ${\mathrm{SiO}}_{2}$ films and synthetic silica glass. Using results of first-principles calculations we report the types of defects (including different possible charge states) th…
Selective synthesis of particles of angstrom to nanometer size consisting of one to many metal atoms is instrumental in various applications, but it has been hampered by the tendency of the metal atom to form large clusters. We found, as studied by the state-of-the-art electron microscopic technique, a strategy to pro…
Gold nanoparticles stabilized by thiol-terminated poly(ethylene glycol) monomethyl ethers with molecular weights ranging from 350 to 2000 have been prepared at thiol-to-gold molar ratios ranging from 3:1 to 1:8. Particle size distributions have been constructed for these particles from transmission electron microscopy…
Abstract Scale inhibitors (SI) have been applied very successfully over many years in oilfields to prevent the formation of mineral scale. Both barium sulphate and calcium carbonate scales may be prevented using inhibitors, although in this work we will focus on the more difficult barite inhibition problem. A number o…
CdS/polystyrene nanocomposite hollow spheres with diameters between 240 and 500 nm were synthesized under ambient conditions by a novel microemulsion method in which the polymerization of styrene and the formation of CdS nanoparticles were initiated by gamma-irradiation. The product was characterized by transmission e…
We have used scanning tunneling microscopy to identify individual phosphorus dopant atoms near the clean silicon (100)-(2x1) reconstructed surface. The charge-induced band bending signature associated with the dopants shows up as an enhancement in both filled and empty states and is consistent with the appearance of n…
We find there are at least two different steady states for transport across noncollinear magnetic multilayers. In the conventional one there is a discontinuity in the spin current across the interfaces which has been identified as the source of current induced magnetic reversal; in the one advocated herein the spin to…
We show that the transverse components of spin current in a ferromagnet is linked to an off diagonal spin component of the transmission matrix at interfaces;it has little to do with the mismatch of band structures between dissimilar metals. When we take account of this component,not considered in prior analyses, we fi…
There are at least two different putative steady state solutions for current across noncollinear magnetic multilayers; one has a discontinuity in the spin current at the interface the other is continuous. We compare the resistance of the two and find the solution with the continuous spin currents is lower. By using th…
We show that when one drives a charge current across noncollinear magnetic layers the two electron Coulomb scattering creates a spin flip potential at interfaces. This scattering is found when the interface potential is updated due to the spin accumulation attendant to charge flow, and it contributes in linear respons…
