Journal of Electrochemistry

As the semiconductor integrated circuits evolve into 7 nm technology and beyond, the resistance of the Cu filling at back-end-of-line interconnects no longer linearly scales with dimension. The metal Co with lower mean free path can be used to replace Cu for reducing the line resistance caused by the scattering on the outer surface and grain boundary in the smaller and smaller size. In this study, CoSO4 was used as the main salt, boric acid as a buffer and malachite green (MG) as an inhibitor for further research. According to the electrochemical cyclic voltammetric (CV) curves by using a …

The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium

Currently, tablets and capsules are the most common ways of delivering drugs. The active pharmaceutical ingredients and excipients used to make those tablets and capsules are in their crystalline form generally. However, a single molecule can form multiple different crystal structures because of different packing arrangements of the molecules. These different crystal structures have identical chemical composition but different properties such as solubility, density, stability, etc. This phenomenon is called polymorphism. Occurrence of polymorphism could be a disaster for both patients and pharmaceutical companies, as the drug could lose its efficacy due to changes in properties. Studying intermolecular interactions in …
