Configurational Entropy Revisited
1548 Journal of Chemical Education • Vol. 84 No. 9 September 2007 • www.JCE.DivCHED.org Entropy change is categorized in some prominent general chemistry textbooks as being either positional (configurational) or thermal. Positional entropy focuses on the number of positions in space that can be occupied by the molecules of a system. Then, to the extent that more positions exist after a process ...
متن کاملConfigurational entropy of hard spheres
We numerically calculate the configurational entropy Sconf of a binary mixture of hard spheres, by using a perturbed Hamiltonian method trapping the system inside a given state, which requires less assumptions than the previous methods [R.J. Speedy, Mol. Phys. 95, 169 (1998)]. We find that Sconf is a decreasing function of packing fraction φ and extrapolates to zero at the Kauzmann packing frac...
متن کاملMagnetic skyrmion transistor: skyrmion motion in a voltage-gated nanotrack
Magnetic skyrmions are localized and topologically protected spin configurations, which are of both fundamental and applied interests for future electronics. In this work, we propose a voltage-gated skyrmion transistor within the well-established framework of micromagnetics. Its operating conditions and processes have been theoretically investigated and demonstrated, in which the gate voltage c...
متن کاملMagnetic skyrmion-based synaptic devices
Magnetic skyrmions are promising candidates for next-generation information carriers, owing to their small size, topological stability, and ultralow depinning current density. A wide variety of skyrmionic device concepts and prototypes have recently been proposed, highlighting their potential applications. Furthermore, the intrinsic properties of skyrmions enable new functionalities that may be...
متن کاملConfigurational Entropy in Chiral Solutions - Negative Entropy of Solvent Envelopes
A homogeneous solution of a chiral substance is acquired with an overall asymmetry which is expressed by a specific rotation of a linearly polarized light. Such a solution, despite being at a complete equilibrium, stores configurational entropy in a form of negative entropy which can be nullified by mixing with a solution of the opposite enantiomer. This abundant, yet quite a specific case of i...
