Large Nondipole Effects In The Angular Distributions Of K-Shell Photoelectrons From Molecular Nitrogen, Oliver Hemmers, H. Wang, P. Focke, I. A. Sellin, Dennis W. Lindle, J. C. Arce, J. A. Sheehy, P. W. Langhoff Dec 2001

Large Nondipole Effects In The Angular Distributions Of K-Shell Photoelectrons From Molecular Nitrogen, Oliver Hemmers, H. Wang, P. Focke, I. A. Sellin, Dennis W. Lindle, J. C. Arce, J. A. Sheehy, P. W. Langhoff

Environmental Studies Faculty Publications

Measurements of angular distributions of K-shell electrons photoejected from molecular nitrogen are reported which reveal large deviations at relatively low photon energies ( ħω≤500eV) from emission patterns anticipated from the dipole approximation to interactions between radiation and matter. A concomitant theoretical analysis incorporating the effects of electromagnetic retardation attributes the observed large nondipole behaviors in N2 to bond-length-dependent terms in the E1⊗(E2,M1) photoelectron emission amplitudes which are indicative of a potentially universal nondipole behavior in molecular photoionization.

Adsorption And Oxidation Of Methanol On Pt And Sb, S Modified Pt Electrodes Using Cyclic Voltammetry And Eqcm, Guo-Liang Chen, Sheng-Pei Chen, Heng Lin, Xing-Hong Zheng, Shi-Gang Sun

Journal of Electrochemistry

The processes of adsorption and oxidation of methanol on Pt, Pt/Sb ad and Pt/S ad electrodes were studied by using cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM). The results demonstrated that the oxidation of methanol depends strongly on oxidation states of electrode surface. Sb adatoms on Pt surface can adsorb oxygen at relatively low potentials, and exhibit catalytic effects for methanol oxidation. In contrast to Pt electrodes, the oxidation peak potential of methanol in this case negatively shifted to about 130 mV. In a contrary, the oxidation of Sad atoms consumes oxygen species of Pt electrode surface. As …

Environmental Studies Faculty Publications

Two decades ago, it was predicted [Y. S. Kim et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 46, 1326 (1981)] that relativistic effects should alter the dynamics of the photoionization process in the vicinity of Cooper minima. The present experimental and theoretical study of the angular distributions of Xe 4d3/2 and 4d5/2 photoelectrons demonstrates this effect for the first time. The results clearly imply that relativistic effects are likely to be important for intermediate- Z atoms at most energies.

Uneven Anodic Dissolution Of Iron Induced By Magnetic Field, Zhan-Peng Lv, De-Lun Huang, Wu Yang Aug 2001

Uneven Anodic Dissolution Of Iron Induced By Magnetic Field, Zhan-Peng Lv, De-Lun Huang, Wu Yang

Journal of Electrochemistry

The effects of magnetic field on anodic dissolution of iron in sulfuric acid were studied by potentiostatic polarization measurements and scanning electron microscopy observation. Magnetic field would reduce the surface film coverage fraction on electrode by enhancing the film dissolution process, thus made the electrode prone to active dissolution state. With increasing the applied potentials, magnetic field would accelerate the anodic dissolution, change the oscillation state or passive state to active dissolution state, or maintain the passive state, respectively. Potential for onset of passivation moved in the noble direction when magnetic field was imposed. At specific anodic potentials, denting occurred …

Simultaneous Determination Of Gold(Ⅲ) And Copper(Ⅱ) With Two-Way Stripping Voltammetry, Rong-Zong Hu, Dong-Ping Wei, Guang Wei, Yue-Ying Liu Aug 2001

Simultaneous Determination Of Gold(Ⅲ) And Copper(Ⅱ) With Two-Way Stripping Voltammetry, Rong-Zong Hu, Dong-Ping Wei, Guang Wei, Yue-Ying Liu

Journal of Electrochemistry

A novel Two-way Stripping Voltammetry method for simultaneous determination of Au3+ and Cu2+ was reported in this paper. Because of the strongly electrostatic attraction of carbon paste electrode towards Au(Ⅲ) ion at positive potential and the biochemical contribution of Gram-positive bacteria strain DO1, the ion can be determined by cathodic stripping voltammetry. At the same time, Cu(Ⅱ) is reduced readily under the catalysis of ultra-fine gold particles, thereafter it can be determined by anode stripping voltammetry. There is no interference between the determination of Au3+ and Cu2+ . A perfect liner relationship between the concentrations of …

The Activation Mechanism Of Al Alloys With Tin And Gallium In Alkaline Electrolytes, Zhen-Ya Li, Ling Yi, Zhi-Hui Liu, Lin Yang, Jing-Xin Su, Yan-Ying Chen Aug 2001

The Activation Mechanism Of Al Alloys With Tin And Gallium In Alkaline Electrolytes, Zhen-Ya Li, Ling Yi, Zhi-Hui Liu, Lin Yang, Jing-Xin Su, Yan-Ying Chen

Journal of Electrochemistry

The major reason for Al-anode's activation is that Ga and Sn deposit on the aluminum surface and form activated points. The Al-Sn and Al-Ga binary alloys can't be activated in alkaline medium. During the dissolution of the Al-Sn-Ga ternary anode, Sn and Ga dissolve into the solution and transform into ions. After the Sn ions deposit on the surface of Al-anode, the Ga ions will deposit on Sn. The higher activation of the polynary alloy anode is caused by much more new activated points composed of Ga-Sn alloy being continually formed. Ga- Sn alloy with low melting point deposited on …

A New Method For Impregnating Nafion Solution Into The Electrode Of Pemfc, Qian Tang, Ming Han, Bao-Lian Yi, Zhi-Yin Lin

Journal of Electrochemistry

We have developed a new method for impregnating Nafion solution into the catalyst layer of homemade hydrophobic electrode using capillary process. Those electrodes show better performance and higher utilization of catalyst (detected by CV and TEM) than traditional spray method in PEMFC. According to the results of SEM photograph and linear-analysis of sulfur and platinum for the electrode cross-section, we can conclude that the resin is uniform in the catalyst layer and has almost same depth as catalyst in the impregnated electrode. While in traditional method resin is not uniform in the catalyst layer and penetrates into the diffusion layer, …

Characterization And Electrochemical Investigation Of Boron-Doped Mesocarbon Microbeads Anode Materials For Lithium-Ion Battery, Mao-Hui Chen, Guo-Tao Wu, Guang-Ming Zhu, Jin-Kua You, Zu-Geng Lin

Journal of Electrochemistry

The anodic performances of boron doped and undoped mesocarbon microbeads(MCMBs) were comparatively studied and the structures were characterized by XPS, SEM, XRD and electrochemical measurements. It was found that boron doping samples greatly increased the degree of graphitization and the crystallite size, leading to quite different morphology. Electrochemical discharge/charge cycle tests indicate that lithium intercalation occurred at a little higher potential for the boron doped MCMBs, being attended by greater irreversible capacity loss.
