Abstract:
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation was performed to investigate the ionic current through charged nanopores, and the results were compared with the calculation of Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) equations based on the continuum theory. Results show that the current obtained by MD simulation is lower than the current calculated by PNP equations, and the discrepancy depends on the surface charge density of the nanopores. Also, MD simulation shows that the contribution of the electro-osmotic flow effect on ionic current could be 10% higher than the results obtained by solving PNP equations. Since the PNP equations do not take the effect of the pore wall into consideration, we suggest that adjusting the diffusion coefficient in the PNP equations can obtain more accurate results when calculating the ionic current through charged nanopores.

Abstract:
The first excited singlet state of tropolone (A B-1(2)) and the attendant pi(*)<-pi electronic transition have been examined computationally by applying several quantum chemical treatments built upon the aug-cc-pVDZ basis set, including time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT/B3LYP), configuration interaction singles with perturbative corrections [CIS and CIS(D)], and equation-of-motion coupled-cluster schemes [EOM-CCSD and CR-EOMCCSD(T)]. As in the case of the X (1)A(1) ground state [L. A. Burns, D. Murdock, and P. H. Vaccaro, J. Chem. Phys. 124, 204307 (2006)], geometry optimization procedures and harmonic force-field calculations predict the electronically excited potential surface to support a global minimum-energy configuration of rigorously planar (C-s) symmetry. Minimal Hartree-Fock (HF/CIS) and density-functional (DFT/TDDFT) approaches yield inconsistent results for the X (1)A(1) and A B-1(2) manifolds; however, coupled-cluster (CCSD/EOM-CCSD) methods give fu!
lly relaxed proton-transfer barrier heights of Delta E-pt(X)=3296.1 cm(-1) and Delta E-pt(A)=1270.6 cm(-1) that are in accordance with the experimentally observed increase in vibrationless tunneling splitting upon electronic excitation. Detailed analyses show that this reduction in Delta E-pt stems from a variety of complementary factors, most notably an overall contraction of the proton-transfer reaction site (whereby the equilibrium O center dot O donor-acceptor distance decreases from 2.53 to 2.46 A) and a concomitant shortening of the intramolecular hydrogen bond. Further refinement of A B-1(2) energies through single-point perturbative triples corrections [CR-EOMCCSD(T)] leads to 1316.1 cm(-1) as the best current estimate for Delta E-pt(A). Direct comparison of the lowest-lying out-of-plane torsional mode [nu(39)(a(2))] for X (1)A(1) and A B-1(2) tropolone reveals that its disparate nature (cf. nu(X)(39)=101.2 cm(-1) and nu(A)(39)=42.0 cm(-1)) mediates vibrational-aver!
aging effects which can account for inertial defects extracted!
by rota
tionally resolved spectroscopic measurements.

Abstract:
We present a recently developed one-dimensional dipole lattice model that accurately captures the key properties of water in narrow nanopores. For this model, we derive three equivalent representations of the Hamiltonian that together yield a transparent physical picture of the energetics of the water chain and permit efficient computer simulations. In the charge representation, the Hamiltonian consists of nearest-neighbor interactions and Coulomb-like interactions of effective charges at the ends of dipole ordered segments. Approximations based on the charge picture shed light on the influence of the Coulomb-like interactions on the structure of nanopore water. We use Monte Carlo simulations to study the system behavior of the full Hamiltonian and its approximations as a function of chemical potential and system size and investigate the bimodal character of the density distribution occurring at small system sizes.

Abstract:
We demonstrate how the surrogate process approximation (SPA) method can be used to compute both the potential of mean force along a reaction coordinate and the associated diffusion coefficient using a relatively small number (10-20) of bidirectional nonequilibrium trajectories coming from a complex system. Our method provides confidence bands which take the variability of the initial configuration of the high-dimensional system, continuous nature of the work paths, and thermal fluctuations into account. Maximum-likelihood-type methods are used to estimate a stochastic differential equation (SDE) approximating the dynamics. For each observed time series, we estimate a new SDE resulting in a collection of SPA models. The physical significance of the collection of SPA models is discussed and methods for exploiting information in the population of estimated SPA models are demonstrated and suggested. Molecular dynamics simulations of potassium ion dynamics inside a gramicidin A c!
hannel are used to demonstrate the methodology, although SPA-type modeling has also proven useful in analyzing single-molecule experimental time series [J. Phys. Chem. B 113, 118 (2009)].

Abstract:
We utilize chemical vapor deposition to demonstrate the reactivation of catalyst for multiple regrowths of vertically aligned carbon nanotube arrays (carpets) in the context of water-assisted supergrowth. The carpets are transferred from the growth substrate, and the catalyst and substrate are reactivated by annealing in air. Annealing parameters control the length and diameter distribution of nanotubes in the regrown carpets due to active catalyst termination followed by a size-dependent process of iron carbide particle reoxidation. The lack of achieving indefinite regrowth from a 0.5 nm thick Fe layer can be attributed to factors such as catalyst dynamics taking place during the growth and regrowth processes.

AB We present a recently developed one-dimensional dipole lattice model
that accurately captures the key properties of water in narrow
nanopores. For this model, we derive three equivalent representations
of the Hamiltonian that together yield a transparent physical picture
of the energetics of the water chain and permit efficient computer
simulations. In the charge representation, the Hamiltonian consists of
nearest-neighbor interactions and Coulomb-like interactions of
effective charges at the ends of dipole ordered segments.
Approximations based on the charge picture shed light on the influence
of the Coulomb-like interactions on the structure of nanopore water. We
use Monte Carlo simulations to study the system behavior of the full
Hamiltonian and its approximations as a function of chemical potential
and system size and investigate the bimodal character of the density
distribution occurring at small system sizes.

AB We calculated the optical absorption spectrum response of single-walled
carbon nanotubes under charge doping by using density functional
theory. We find that the spectrum responses can be generally divided
into two categories: one is similar to those obtained from the graphene
zone-folding and rigid-band model, while the other deviates from the
expectation and shows several special features. Our analysis reveals
that the doping type and curvature effects play the primary role.
Finally, we argue that the present results will probably prevail in
more blaborate methods and other similar nanotubes.

Abstract:
Under ambient humidity, water condenses as a nanometre meniscus between an atomic force microscope (AFM) tip and a surface, giving rise to a strong capillary force on the tip. To examine the molecular features of the meniscus, we performed an all-atom molecular dynamics simulation. By varying the tip-surface distance, we have simulated the formation, thinning and snap-off of the water meniscus. The meniscus is several nanometres wide and substantially fluctuates in its periphery when its neck is narrow. The density profile of the meniscus shows that its periphery is not sharp but has a fuzzy boundary whose thickness ranges from 0.4 to 0.9 nm. We obtained the neck radius of the meniscus and the radius of curvature of its periphery. Due to the sharp asperity of the AFM tip, these two structural parameters are comparable in size, in contrast to the case of a macroscopic tip, where the neck radius is much greater. We found that the meniscus periphery is often far from a circle i!
n shape. With the structural parameters of the meniscus, we calculated the capillary force by using the Laplace-Kelvin equation. Our calculation reproduces the typical behaviour of the force-distance curve in the AFM experiment.

Title: Plastic flow in very low temperature regime within annular micropores
Authors: Chu, ZKH
Author Full Names: Chu, Z. Kwang-Hua
Source: ZEITSCHRIFT FUR ANGEWANDTE MATHEMATIK UND PHYSIK 60 (3): 529-542 MAY 2009

KeyWords Plus: CRYSTAL PLASTICITY; STRAIN-RATE; DEFORMATION; STRESS; METALS; SHEAR; LOCALIZATION; STEEL; RATES
Abstract: The rate of deformation for glassy (amorphous) matter confined in microscopic domain at very low temperature regime was investigated using a rate-state-dependent model considering the shear thinning behavior which means, once material being subjected to high shear rates, the viscosity diminishes with increasing shear rate. The preliminary results show that there might be the enhanced rate of deformation and (shear) yield stress due to the almost vanishing viscosity in micropores subjected to some surface conditions: The relatively larger roughness (compared to the macroscopic domain) inside micropores and the slip. As the pore size decreases, the surface-to-volume ratio increases and therefore, surface roughness will greatly affect the (plastic) flow in micropores. By using the boundary perturbation method, we obtained a class of microscopic fields for the rate of deformation and yield stress at low temperature regime with the presumed small wavy roughness distributed along ! the walls of an annular micropore.

Abstract:
A novel hybrid density functional theory, MPWB1K, was firstly employed to investigate static adsorptions of a nifedipine on a (10, 10) type of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT), which was modeled by C200H40 and C-280, respectively, For both SWCNT models the internal adsorption is more stable than the external adsorption in a range of 5.3-7.8 kcal/mol, which indicates that a nifedipine has a preference to internally adsorb on the (10, 10) SWCNT. Molecular dynamic simulations were then used to predict the dynamic behaviors of a nifedipine and the (10, 10) SWCNT system in both gas phase and aqueous solution. The classical MID simulations show that for both cases a nifedipine could spontaneously encapsulate into the SWCNT and migrate in a Surprising oscillation behavior inside the SWCNT; however, both phenomena are significantly delayed in the presence of water molecules. The present study suggests that the nanotube network may be used as an efficient tool for transporting t!
his kind of calcium channel antagonists. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
