The N 2 O decomposition mechanism is investigated over Cu-ZSM-5 using density functional theory (DFT). Though the mechanism is extended from Fe/Co-ZSM-5, the results show that a different step may be rate-determining over Cu-ZSM-5 compared to the Fe/Co-ZSM-5 system. In the beginning, Z[Cu] as active center decomposes…

Abstract Uniform dispersion and strong interfacial interaction are two critical prerequisites for application of single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in polymer composites. To endow the composites with multifunctional feature, no damage on the chemical/electronic structure of SWNTs is also usually required. With the…

We successfully obtained Sn-doped SrTiO${}_{3}$ (SSTO) perovskites, and clarified their ferroelectricity and structural properties by using first-principles theoretical calculations. The ferroelectricity of SSTO was confirmed by the appearance of a dielectric permittivity maximum and a clear hysteresis loop of the rel…
