چکیده

We have measured the 1/f noise through the metal–nonmetal transition in carbon black/polymer composites as a function of temperature and doping. At the electronic transition, the resistivity power spectrum Sr varies as Sr;r , with Q52.77, in agreement with classical three-dimensional percolation. At lower temperatures, a crossover to tunneling-dominated transport occurs with Sr ;ln Sr /r . Our results show that 1/f noise can be a more sensitive technique than resistivity itself for probing transport behavior near a percolation-induced electronic transition. © 2000 American Institute of Physics. @S0003-6951~00!02505-5#

Quantum molecular dynamics simulations for the nonmetal-to-metal transition in fluid helium.

We have performed quantum molecular dynamics simulations for dense helium to study the nonmetal-to-metal transition at high pressures. We present new results for the equation of state and the Hugoniot curve in the warm dense matter region. The optical conductivity is calculated via the Kubo-Greenwood formula from which the dc conductivity is derived. The nonmetal-to-metal transition is identifi...

Structural and electronic properties of compressed selenium and tellurium under high pressure

We investigate the mechanisms of the nonmetal-metal transitions of Se and Te induced by the volume compression both in the solid and liquid states by the density functional method. The volume compression increases the band width and the system transforms from nonmetal to metal phase both in the crystalline Se and Te. When the system has structural disorder, the energy of the anti-bonding level ...

Medium-range fluctuations accompanying the metal-nonmetal transition in expanded fluid hg.

We have carried out small angle x-ray scattering experiments of expanded fluid Hg in the metal-nonmetal (M-NM) transition region around 9.0 g cm(-3). Increase of small angle scattering intensity following the Ornstein-Zernike equation is clearly observed in the M-NM transition region as well as near the liquid-vapor critical point at 5.8 g cm(-3). The short-range correlation length, R, becomes ...

Modification of Polyaniline/Polystyrene and Polyaniline/Metal Oxide Structure by Surfactant

Polyaniline/polystyrene (PAni/PS) composites were prepared in aqueous solution by polymerization of styrene and aniline in two-stages. Firstly styrene polymerize by using Ammonium persulfate (APS) as an oxidant in the presence of various surfactants such as poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP), hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC), poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and surfactive dopant sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate...
