It is shown that an isomorphism exists between the mixing entropy and the size of a computer program that simulates the physical system. This isomorphism must be constructed with respect to some theorems, and it is shown that the composition of two isomorphisms, one based on a run length encoding and another by encoding sequences in a dictionary allows us to quantify the entropy of binary and ternary systems at the equilibrium. Finally, it is shown that the energy consumed by a physical system encoded by this system and executed on a Turing machine is proportional to the free energy of the thermodynamic system.

A method for the determination of individual components of complex mixtures is presented. The technique used is based on ir-absorbance measurements for stearic acid at 1700 and at 935 cm−1 when the concentration range exceeds 0.50% wt/vol; for isopropenyl stearate at 1145 and at 865 cm−1; for stearic anhydride at 1030 cm−1 and mixed stearic-acetic anhydride at 1000 cm−1. The baseline method was used in all absorbance measurements. Absorbance-concentration relationships obeyed Beer's law from 0 to 2.0% wt/vol for most compounds; the exception being stearic acid (at 1700 cm−1), where linearity was limited to a maximum 0.50% wt/vol. Due to spectral interference between the two anhydrides at low concentration ratios, an empirical percent transmission ratio method was used to estimate the relative concentration of each. Binary and ternary systems were studied and the standard deviations of the differences between theoretical and calculated values indicate that this method is reliable.

AbstractVarious theories have been developed to describe the diffusion-controlled growth of precipitates with shapes approximating needles or plates. The most comprehensive one is due to Ivantsov, Horvay and Cahn, and Trivedi (HIT theory), where all the factors that may influence the precipitate growth, i.e. diffusion, interface kinetics and capillarity, are accounted for within one equation. However, HIT theory was developed based on assumptions that transformation strain/stress and interfacial free energy are isotropic, which are not true in most of the real systems. An improved growth theory of precipitates of needle and plate shapes was developed in the present study. A new concept, the compression ratio, was introduced to account for influences from the anisotropy of transformation strain/stress and interfacial free energy on the precipitate morphology. Experimental evidence supports such compression effect. Precipitate growth kinetics were quantified using this concept. The improved HIT theory (IHIT theory) was then applied to study the growth of Widmanstatten austenite in ferrite in Fe-C-Mn steels. The calculated results agree well with the experimental observations.

Damage-free drying becomes increasingly difficult with the scaling of semiconductor devices. In this work, we studied a new sublimation drying technology for 3nm node and beyond. In order to investigate the collapse factor by conventional sublimation drying, we observed the pattern with cryo-SEM and revealed that the collapse occurred when the liquid film on the substrate solidified. Based on this result, we considered that it was important to deposit a solidified film uniformly from the substrate side to suppress collapse. Two key process parameters were evaluated to achieve the uniform formation of the solidified film. One is interfacial free energy and the other is film thickness of solution just before solidification. By optimizing two key parameters, it was successfully demonstrated to suppress pattern collapse of challenging devices. In this paper, we report on a new drying method: sublimation drying by LPD (Liquid-phase deposition).
