Standard reversible decomposition voltages, E0, for various decomposition reactions of K2CO3, Na2CO3, Li2CO3, BaCO3, CaCO3, MgCO3, Na2SO4, NaNO3, and KNO3 are calculated from thermal data and the values obtained plotted against temperature. That reaction which has the lowest values of E0 is considered to be the most likely to occur when the particular salt is electrolyzed. The results obtained indicate that in the case of the carbonates metal deposition is possible only for K2CO2 and Na2CO3 above 870 °K. In all other cases metal oxide and carbon (or CO at higher temperatures) are the favored cathode products. For Na2SO4, Na2S and Na2O are the favored cathode products and for the nitrates, nitrite and oxide or nitrogen evolution and oxide formation appear equally feasible thermodynamically.Once the likely electrolytic decomposition products are known, a method is presented whereby the products formed by reduction of the oxy-anions by metals (and in the case of the carbonates, by carbon) may be predicted. This method involves drawing an appropriate redox line on an Ellingham diagram. Finally, a comparison is made between the thermodynamic predictions and the few experimental results available.

This paper proposes the simulated and experimental results of a universal filter using the voltage differencing differential difference amplifier (VDDDA). Unlike the previous complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) structures of VDDDA that is present in the literature, the present one is compact and simple, owing to the employment of the multiple-input metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) transistor technique. The presented filter employs two VDDDAs, one resistor and two grounded capacitors, and it offers low-pass: LP, band-pass: BP, band-reject: BR, high-pass: HP and all-pass: AP responses with a unity passband voltage gain. The proposed universal voltage mode filter has high input impedances and low output impedance. The natural frequency and bandwidth are orthogonally controlled by using separated transconductance without affecting the passband voltage gain. For a BP filter, the root mean square (RMS) of the equivalent output noise is 46 µV, and the third intermodulation distortion (IMD3) is −49.5 dB for an input signal with a peak-to peak of 600 mV, which results in a dynamic range (DR) of 73.2 dB. The filter was designed and simulated in the Cadence environment using a 0.18-µm CMOS process from Taiwan semiconductor manufacturing company (TSMC). In addition, the experimental results were obtained by using the available commercial components LM13700 and AD830. The simulation results are in agreement with the experimental one that confirmed the advantages of the filter.

Ca-ion batteries (CIBs) have the potential to provide inexpensive energy storage, but their realization is impeded by the lack of suitable electrolytes. Motivated by recent experimental progress, we perform ab initio molecular dynamics simulations to investigate early decomposition reactions at the anode-electrolyte interface. By examining different combinations of solvent—tetrahydrofuran (THF) or ethylene carbonate (EC)—and salt—Ca(BH4)2, Ca(BF4)2, Ca(BCl4)2, and Ca(ClO4)2—we identify a variety of behavioral trends between electrolyte solutions. Next, we perform a separate trajectory with pure THF and gradually increased negative charge; despite an addition of -32e, no THF decomposition is detected. Charge analysis reveals that in a reductive environment, THF distributes excess charge evenly across its hydrocarbon backbone, while EC concentrates charge on its ester oxygens and carbonyl carbon, resulting in decomposition. Graphs of charge vs. time for both solvents reveal that EC decomposition products can be reduced by up to five electrons, while those of THF are limited to a single electron. Ultimately, we find Ca(BH4)2 and THF to be the most stable solution investigated herein, corroborating experimental evidence of its suitability as a CIB electrolyte.

Water-based infrared ray shielding coating, that is, nanometer metal oxide is added to the water-based paint, which has anti-IR features without affecting the transparency of the paint. In this paper, the nanometer oxides are prepared by sol-gel method, added into polypropylene sour. In order to improve the infrared ray shielding of the thin film, two kinds of nanometer oxides are added into the polypropylene sour with different volume ratios, the shielding performance of the paint is studied. Experimental results show: in the 8000 ~ 4000cm-1 range, the transmittances of infrared ray is 30% to 75%; in 4000 ~ 400cm-1 range, transmittances decrease significantly; 3% ZnO, 3% Fe2O3, 3% Y2O3, 2% Al2O3 are the best mass ratio of every single nanometer oxide; the infrared shielding rate of Fe2O3 and Y2O3 mixture with the volume ratio of 1 to 4 is better than Fe2O3 and Y2O3 single.

AbstractWe present experimental results regarding the thermodynamic stability of the high-k dielectrics ZrO2 and HfO2 in contact with Si and SiO2. The HfO2/Si interface is found to be stable with respect to formation of silicides whereas the ZrO2/Si interface is not. The metal oxide/SiO2 interface is marginally unstable with respect to formation of silicates. Cross-sectional transmission electron micrographs expose formation of nodules, identified as silicides, across the polysilicon/ZrO2/Si interfaces but not for the interfaces with HfO2. For both ZrO2 and HfO2, the X-ray photoemission spectra illustrate formation of silicate-like compounds in the MO2/SiO2 interface.

Good Agreement

A combustion model is presented to account for the nitric oxide formation in diesel engines at all operating conditions. The paper tries to introduce the concept of variable air-fuel ratio estimated to exist during diesel combustion. Analytical solutions are found to be in good agreement with experimental results. Further investigations will be directed to diesel engines having combustion systems other than the M.A.N.-FM system, and to possible remedies to reduce the formation of nitrogen oxides.
