Abstract Fresnel diffraction from a phase step for measuring diffusion coefficient in transparent liquids is investigated. When a transparent glass plate immersed vertically in a cell containing two diffusing liquids is illuminated by a parallel beam of light, the diffraction pattern of the plate edge forms on a screen perpendicular to the beam direction and varies by diffusion. The gradient of the refractive index in the liquids is then obtained by analyzing the diffraction patterns at different times after the beginning of the diffusion process, from which the diffusion coefficient is determined. Using this method, we study the diffusion process of the sucrose-water solution and report the diffusion coefficient with a reliable accuracy.

2D and especially 3D symmetry information required to determine the crystal structure of four intermetallic phases present as small particles (average size in the range 100-500nm) in a Fe.22Cr.5Ni.3Mo.0.03C duplex stainless steel is not present in most Convergent Beam Electron Diffraction (CBED) patterns. Nevertheless it is possible to deduce many crystal features and to identify unambiguously these four phases by means of microdiffraction patterns obtained with a nearly parallel beam focused on a very small area (50-100nm).From examinations of the whole pattern reduced (RS) and full (FS) symmetries the 7 crystal systems and the 11 Laue classes are distinguished without ambiguity (1). By considering the shifts and the periodicity differences between the ZOLZ and FOLZ reflection nets on specific Zone Axis Patterns (ZAP) which depend on the crystal system, the centering type of the cell and the glide planes are simultaneously identified (2). This identification is easily done by comparisons with the corresponding simulated diffraction patterns.

In order to examine the origin of extra diffraction spots and streaks observed in selected area diffraction patterns of deuterium irradiated silicon, systematic diffraction experiments have been carried out by using parallel beam illumination.Disc specimens 3mm in diameter and 0.5mm thick were prepared from a float zone silicon single crystal(B doped, 7kΩm), and were chemically thinned in a mixed solution of nitric acid and hydrogen fluoride to make a small hole at the center for transmission electron microscopy. The pre-thinned samples were irradiated with deuterium ions at temperatures between 300-673K at 20keV to a dose of 1022ions/m2, and induced lattice defects were examined under a JEOL 200CX electron microscope operated at 160kV.No indication of formation of amorphous was obtained in the present experiments. Figure 1 shows an example of defects induced by irradiation at 300K with a dose of 2xl021ions/m2. A large number of defect clusters are seen in the micrograph.

A process of segregation of two distinct fractions of solid particles in a rotating horizontal drum mixer was described by stochastic model assuming the segregation to be a diffusion process with varying diffusion coefficient. The model is based on description of motion of particles inside the mixer by means of a stochastic differential equation. Results of stochastic modelling were compared to the solution of the corresponding Kolmogorov equation and to results of earlier carried out experiments.

Приведено решение нелинейной задачи диффузионного переноса с учетом предварительной подготовки экстрагента методом электрохимической активации. Для расчета параметров процесса использована капиллярная модель. Показаны результаты расчета симплекса концентраций от числа Фурье Е = f(Fo). Представлены экстракционные кривые в чистых сахарных растворах с различными видами экстрагентов и температурами процесса 20 и 70°С. Аналитическая обработка кинетических кривых позволила определить основные параметры диффузионного процесса экстрагирования сахарозы. Проведен полный двухфакторный эксперимент lnЕ= f(С; τ), получено уравнение регрессии и построена поверхность отклика, которая исследована методом неопределенных множителей Лагранжа с получением оптимальных значений для проведенной серии опытов С = 15,4% и τ = 750 с. Выполненные расчеты позволяют моделировать внутренний массоперенос экстрагирования концентрационно-зависимого коэффициента диффузии сахарозы при наложении электрического поля при обработке экстрагента. We present a solution to the nonlinear diffusion transfer problem, taking into account the preliminary preparation of the extractant by electrochemical activation (ECHA). A capillary model is used to calculate the process parameters. The results of calculating the concentration simplex from the Fourier number E= f(Fo) are shown. The description of the laboratory installation, the method of the process, and the modes of ECHA preparation of extractants are given. Extraction curves in pure sucrose solutions with different types of extractants and process temperatures are presented. Analytical processing of the kinetic curves of the sucrose extraction process for the regular stage of the process allowed us to determine the main parameters of the diffusion process. A complete two-factor experiment lnE= f(C; τ) was performed. A regression equation was obtained and the response surface was constructed, which was studied by the method of indeterminate Lagrange multipliers to obtain optimal values for the series of experiments С = 15,4% and τ = 750 s. The calculations performed allow us to model the internal mass transfer of extraction of the concentration-dependent sucrose diffusion coefficient when an electric field is applied during processing of the extractant.

Powder X-ray diffraction patterns for three forms of MIL-53(Al), a metal organic framework (MOF) compound with breathing characteristics, were investigated using the Rietveld refinement method. These three samples are referred to as the MIL-53(Al)as-syn (the as synthesized sample), orthorhombic, Pnma, a = 17.064(2) Å, b = 6.6069(9) Å, c = 12.1636(13) Å, V = 1371.3(2) Å3, Z = 4), MIL-53(Al)LT-H (low-temperature hydrated phase, monoclinic P21/c, a = 19.4993(8) Å, b = 15.2347(6) Å, c = 6.5687(3) Å, β = 104.219(4) °, V = 1891.55(10) Å3, Z = 8), and MIL-53(Al)HT-D (high-temperature dehydrated phase, Imma, a = 6.6324(5) Å, b = 16.736(2) Å, c = 12.840(2), V = 1425.2(2) Å3, Z = 4). The crystal structures of the “as-syn” sample and the HT-D sample are confirmed to be the commonly adopted ones. However, the structure of the MIL-53(Al)LT-H phase is confirmed to be monoclinic with a space group of P21/c instead of the commonly accepted space group Cc, resulting in a cell volume double in size. The structure has two slightly different types of channel. The pore volumes and pore surface area were estimated to be 0.11766 (8) cm3/g and 1461.3(10) m2/g for MIL-53(Al)HT-D (high-temperature dehydrated phase), and 0.08628 (5) cm3/g and 1401.6 (10) m2/g for MIL-53(Al)as-syn phases, respectively. The powder patterns for the MIL-53(Al)as-syn and MIL-53(Al)HT-D phases are reported in this paper.
