چکیده

The melting transition of Xe monolayers adsorbed on a single-crystal exfoliated graphite substrate has been studied by high-resolution synchrotron x-ray scattering. At temperatures slightly above the melting transition the fluid phase has a high degree of orientational order. The results are discussed in the context of current theories of two-dimensional melting including the effects of the substrate.

Experimental Observation of Continuous Melting into a Hexatic Phase

This paper reports the results of an x ray-diffuse scattering study of the melting transition of monolayer xenon on the surface of single crystals of exfoliated graphite. It is found that the two-dimensional xenon solid melts into an orientationally ordered liquid (or hexatic) phase. The temperature dependence of the orientational correlations suggests that the hexatic phase exists as a consequ...

Bond-orientational structure and melting signature in krypton physisorbed onto graphite at complete coverage

A constant-temperature, constant-density molecular-dynamics method is utilized to study the bondorientational structure and behavior in Kr-gr for the solid, fluid, and melting transition regimes at monolayer completion (r51). Several bond-orientational order parameters are introduced to help monitor the system’s symmetry behavior, both with respect to the substrate as well as intrinsic. The fir...

Diffusion and melting of adsorbed monolayers by Mössbauer spectroscopy

2014 Mössbauer spectroscopy is applied to the study of dynamical properties of adsorbed monolayers with special attention to changes in resonant absorption cross section caused by diffusion along the surface. Specific systems studied were films of butadiene iron tricarbonyl on exfoliated graphite (Papyex) at several coverages, from 130 K to room temperature. The absorption spectra of the Fe57 c...

Dynamics of xenon, krypton, and methane monolayers in registry with graphite.

The self-consistent phonon (SCP) theory is used to study the dynamics of monolayers of xenon, krypton, and methane adsorbed on graphite. Only the ~3Xv 3 sohd phase is considered. It is shown that the phonon energies of the Xe monolayers are very similar to those of their Soating counterparts, while the interaction of the Kr and CH4 monolayers vnth the graphite signNcantly a8ects the phonon disp...

An investigation on absorption properties of exfoliated graphite for oil spill from Caspian Sea water

Oil spills are the most important environmental impact in oceans and seas. In this article, Oil absorption, which was explored from Sardar-e-Jangal oilfield in Caspian Sea, by exfoliated graphite (EG), was investigated. Graphite was exfoliated through the reaction of graphite-CrO3 intercalation compounds with hydrogen peroxide. The obtained absorbent was characterized by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller ...
