Comparison of the Coating Structure of Silicon‐Based PECVD Coatings With Varying Organic Content
Silicon‐based PECVD coatings transition abruptly from organic SiOCH to oxidic SiOx at ~32 at% silicon, exhibiting threshold behavior in barrier performance. Chemical composition seems to dominate over porosity: SiOx coatings unexpectedly show higher porosity yet superior barrier properties, possibly due to rigid cage‐like molecular structures ...

Atomic and molecular structures of positronium, dipositronium and positronium hydride [PDF]
The three positron based chemical entities, analogous to hydrogen atom, hydrogen molecule and hydride, are drawing increasing attention in the literature. While a lot is known about the binding energies, not much is known about the radii of the atoms and

Organic redox flow batteries are promising for grid stabilisation, but the insufficient ion separation by membrane separator can limit the lifetime and increase the cost. Here, we present an ultra‐ion‐selective SPEEK‐SX membrane, it enables 600 cycles at 160 mA cm−2 with only 0.00935% per cycle capacity decay, outperforming Nafion‐212, offering a ...

A scalable one‐step copolymerization strategy is developed to produce low‐cost microporous ion exchange membranes that boost both the efficiency and lifespan of flow batteries. When combined with organic electrolytes in aqueous systems, these membranes enable safe and cheap flow battery energy storage, supporting the widespread integration of renewable

Can the mirror world explain the ortho-positronium lifetime puzzle? [PDF]
We suggest that the discrepant lifetime measurements of ortho-positronium can be explained by ortho-positronium oscillations into mirror ortho-positronium.

Discrete symmetries such as parity (P), charge-conjugation (C) and time reversal (T) are of fundamental importance in physics and cosmology. Breaking of charge conjugation symmetry (C) and its combination with parity (CP) constitute necessary conditions ...

Cooling positronium to ultralow velocities with a chirped laser pulse train. [PDF]
When laser radiation is skilfully applied, atoms and molecules can be cooled allowing precise measurements and control of quantum systems. This is essential in fundamental studies of physics as well as practical applications such as precision ...

Dissolved hydrogen‐induced plasticization of polyamide 11 (PA11) detected as a decrease in flexural modulus (E f) using Cyclic Three‐Point Bending (Cyc‐3PB). ABSTRACT The effect of dissolved hydrogen on polyamide 11 (PA11) after decompression from a 90 MPa hydrogen gas environment was investigated. Structural analyses using wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction

Positronium emission from semiconductors
Positronium is spontaneously emitted from solids, when the formation potential or the work function is negative. So far, positronium emission from solids have been investigated mainly with metals and insulators.

A Positronium Beam and Positronium Reflection from LiF [PDF]
At the Brookhaven National Laboratory we have constructed a positronium (Ps) beam by transmitting monoenergetic, low energy positrons through a gas cell containing either Ar or He which provide an electron to form positronium. A description of the positron beam and of the Ps formation mechanisms are found in these Proceedings (see M. Weber, et al.
