Analytical chemistry on many-center chiral compounds based on vibrational circular dichroism: Absolute configuration assignments and determination of…
2019
The absolute configuration of a chiral molecule is key to its biological activity. Being able to find out what this configuration is, is thus crucial for a wide range of applications. The difficulties associated with such a determination steeply rise as the number of chiral centers in a given compound becomes larger. Concurrently, it becomes increasingly more challenging to determine the levels and identity of potential stereochemical contaminants in a given sample with one and the same technique, leading in practice to extensive and laborious efforts employing multiple analytical techniques. Here, experimental and theoretical studies based on Vibrational Circular Dichroism (VCD) are presen…
Genetic Algorithm Modeling for Photocatalytic Elimination of Impurity in Wastewater
2019
The existence of C.I. Acid Yellow 23 (AY23) in water causes a great danger to people and society. Here, we suggest an advanced technique which predicts the photochemical deletion of AY23. The genetic algorithm (GA) technique is suggested in order to predict the photocatalytic removal of AY23 by implementing the Ag-TiO\(_{2}\) nanoparticles provided under appropriate conditions.
Effect of gaseous impurities and the laser optics
2004
The impurities into the volume of a material appear while the elaboration process of the considered material. If a material is non-homogenous, even if we machine this material by means of a classical technology we could remark some differences in the machining process like cutting, drilling a.s.o. even in the process of welding. The impurities may be gaseous or solid. Each kind of impurity has another effect for the classical tool, or for a non-traditional tool i.e. a kind of concentrated energy. Each kind of medium has another reaction versus laser beam, because each medium has other physical characteristics. The modifications of characteristics require modifications of photon beam paramet…
Microscopic defects and impurity analyses of multicrystalline silicon solar cells from different manufacturing routes
2013
It is important to fully understand the physical behavior of solar cells made by materials from alternative process routes. Solar cells from Elkem Solar Grade Silicon and standard polysilicon have been investigated with light beam induced current and electroluminescence imaging. The low efficiency regions have been further analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscopy under different imaging modes. It was found that cell regions of low performance had undergone plastic deformations resulting in the creation of crystalline defects appearing as subgrain patterns. Similar patterns were observed in both ESS™ and standard polysilicon. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and electron backscatte…

Atoms embedded in an electron gas: Phase shifts and cross sections
1983
The Fermi-level scattering phase shifts and the transport cross sections are reported for atoms embedded in a homogeneous electron gas. The applications of the results are discussed, using the electronic stopping power for slow ions and impurity resistivity as examples. Peer reviewed
Dielectric study of orientational disorder in (CO2)1−x(N2O)xmixed crystals
1990
The dipolar relaxation dynamics of solid solutions of carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide has been investigated using dielectric spectroscopy. The temperature dependence of the relaxation rate reveals an ideal Arrhenius behavior for all concentrations, with energy barriers which scale linearly between the two pure compounds. The attempt frequencies are anomalously high. The distribution of relaxation times due to the static random fields as introduced by the substitutional impurity molecules is almost negligible. The melting temperature is determined by a critical relaxation rate of 40 kHz.
Rapid characterization of alkylpolyphosphonates by CZE with indirect photometric and mass spectrometric detection.
2006
Methods for the rapid characterization of industrial alkylpolyphosphonates (APPs) by infusion MS and CZE with indirect photometric (IPD) and MS detection are described. Technical-grade APPs, including alkylaminepolyphosphonates with 3-5 phosphonate groups and different hydrocarbon skeletons, hydroxyethyl-amino-bis(methylenephosphonic acid), hydroxyethylidene-diphosphonic acid, and 2-phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid, were examined. A 10 mM solution of adenosine triphosphate disodium salt at pH 2.2 was used as BGE. The nominal compounds of the industrial APPs and their impurities were well resolved in less than 15 min. The peaks were identified by using extracted ion electropherograms…
From orientational glasses to structural glasses: What computer simulations have contributed to understand experiments
2002
Abstract Orientational glasses, produced by random dilution of molecular crystals, exhibit a freezing transition of the quadrupole moments. Monte Carlo simulations of lattice models (generalization of the Edwards–Anderson spin glass model) have been used to elucidate this behavior. While short range models exhibit a static glass transition at zero temperature only, the infinite range Potts glass exhibits a transition where a glass order parameter appears discontinuously. At higher temperature, a dynamical transition occurs, described by mode-coupling theory (MCT). MCT has also been tested by Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations of coarse-grained models of glass-forming polymers. W…
