Equilibrium-like behavior in far-from-equilibrium chemical reaction networks
In an equilibrium chemical reaction mixture, the number of molecules present obeys a Poisson distribution. We ask when the same is true of the steady state of a nonequilibrium reaction network and obtain an essentially complete answer. In particular, we show that networks with certain topological features must have a Poisson distribution, whatever the reaction rates. Such driven systems also ob...
متن کاملLow-temperature plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition of carbon nanotubes
Vertically aligned carbon nanotubes were selectively grown at temperatures as low as 120 8C by plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition. We investigated the effects of acetylene, ethylene and methane as carbon source gases together with ammonia as an etchant and nickel as catalyst material. The diluted acetylene plasma gave the highest nanotube growth rate and showed the most intense C Swan b...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics simulations of a chemical reaction; conditions for local equilibrium in a temperature gradient.
We have examined a simple chemical reaction in a temperature gradient; 2F <==> F2. A mechanical model was used, based on Stillinger and Weber's 2- and 3-body potentials. Equilibrium and non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations showed that the chemical reaction is in local thermodynamic as well as in local chemical equilibrium (delta(r)G = 0) in the supercritical fluid, for temperature gra...
متن کاملGrand challenges in low-temperature plasma physics
INTRODUCTION A plasma is a hot ionized gas and classification of this fourth state of matter can be initially done using the basic concept of temperature. A prime example is the Sun which exhibits a very hot plasma in its core with temperatures of about 1.5 × 107 K (a result of fusion reactions with a proton density of ∼1026 cm−3) and cooler surface temperatures of about 6000 K [1]: the Solar w...
متن کاملLow Temperature Plasma Technology Laboratory Equilibrium theory of cylindrical discharges with special application to helicons
Radiofrequency discharges used in industry often have centrally peaked plasma density profiles n(r) although ionization is localized at the edge, even in the presence of a dc magnetic field. This can be explained with a simple cylindrical model in one dimension as long as the short-circuit effect at the endplates causes a Maxwellian electron distribution. Surprisingly, a universal profile can b...
