Computer Investigation of the Energy Landscape of Amorphous Silica Typeset Using Revt E X

چکیده
The multidimensional topography of the collective potential energy function of a so-called strong glass former (silica) is analyzed by means of classical molecular dynamics calculations. Features qualitatively similar to those of fragile glasses are recovered at high temperatures : in particular an intrinsic characteristic temperature T c ' 3500K is evidenced above which the system starts to investigate non-harmonic potential energy basins. It is shown that the anharmonicities are essentially characterized by a roughness appearing in the potential energy valleys explored by the system for temperatures above T c .

بررسی تغییرات فازی سیلیس و سیلیسیوم به هنگام آسیاب کاری
In the present study phase transformation of silicon and silica during milling in different atmospheres was investigated. The silicon powder was subjected to high energy ball milling in ammonia (25%) atmosphere. The milled powder was subsequently annealed at 1200 ◦C for 1 hour. In another test a mixture of AlN and amorphous silica (micro silica) was subjected to high energy ball milling. The m...
متن کاملSynthesis and Characterizations of Silica Nanoparticles by a New Sol-Gel Method
Silica nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical methods from tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS), polyethylene glycol 5% and hydrochloric acid 0.001 N. The sol-gel process was applied for the preparation of nano silica gel. This method is hydrolysis and condensation reactions of TEOS as precursor of silica. The optimal synthesis conditions for the preparation of silica nanoparticles were obtained ...
متن کاملLevel Spacing Statistics of Classically Integrable Systems -investigation along the Line of the Berry-robnik Approach- Typeset Using Revt E X 1
By extending the approach of Berry and Robnik, the limiting level spacing distribution of a system consisting of infinitely many independent components is investigated. The limiting level spacing distribution is characterized by a single monotonically increasing function μ̄(S) of the level spacing S. Three cases are distinguished: (i) Poissonian if μ̄(+∞) = 0, (ii) Poissonian for large S, but pos...
متن کاملLyapunov Exponents and Transport in Self-organized Criticality. Typeset Using Revt E X
We discuss the role played by the Lyapunov exponents in the dynamics of the Zhang's model of Self-Organized Criticality. We show that a wide part in the spectrum (slowest modes) is associated to energy transport in the lattice. We give in particular bounds on the first negative Lyapunov exponents in terms of the energy flux dissipated at the boundaries per unit time. We then establish an explic...

In this work, we investigated synthesis, magnetic properties of silica coated metal ferrite, (CoFe2O4)/SiO2 and Manganese doped cobalt ferrite nanoparticles (MnxCo1-xFe2O4 with x= 0.02, 0.04 and 0.06)/SiO2 for possible biomedical application. All the ferrites nanoparticles were prepared by co-precipitation method using FeCl3.6H2O, CoCl2.6H2O and MnCl2.2H2O as precursors, and were silica coated ...
