Modification of Diamond Conditioner with V-SAM Coatings for Corrosion Prevention During Metal CMP

International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2013
In the present work, the vapor phase-self assembled monolayers made from two different precursors, 1-dodecanethiol (DT) and perfluoroctyltrichlorosilane (FOTS), were prepared on a nickel surface under optimized conditions [2].

A Novel Deep Temporal Feature Enhanced Just‐in‐Time Learning Framework for Predicting Rare Earth Component Content

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Real‐time online detection of rare earth element component contents is a crucial link in ensuring the stable production of the rare earth extraction and separation industry and improving the quality of rare earth products. The traditional methods for predicting the content of rare earth element components based on just‐in‐time learning fail to

Performance of a transcritical carbon dioxide heat pump for simultaneous refrigeration and water heating : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Technology at Massey University [PDF]

, 1998
Many industrial processes require both refrigeration to less than 0°C and water heating to greater than 60°C. Traditional independent refrigeration and boiler systems have relatively poor energy efficiency, whilst conventional heat pumps can provide both

Variations of the Lifshitz-van der Waals force between metals immersed in liquids

, 2010
We present a theoretical calculation of the Lifshitz-van der Waals force between two metallic slabs embedded in a fluid, taking into account the change of the Drude parameters of the metals when in contact with liquids of different index of refraction ...

Measuring Molecular Forces With Atomic Force Microscopy 1: Solvent Influence on Hydrophobic Interactions

Microscopy Research and Technique, EarlyView.
Atomic force microscopy enables precise evaluation of the magnitude and range of hydrophobic and van der Waals interactions. This primer presents a protocol for fluorocarbon functionalization of gold surfaces and examines how water: DMSO mixtures affect hydrophobic forces, with data interpreted through an extended van der Waals model.
