the surface water chemistry of thiruvananthapuram museum lake was carried out in the period of february 2013 to january 2014. correlation study of the parameters and overall ccme wqi (canadian council of ministers of the environment water quality index) was also prepared in the study for the lake water. the parameters analysed are cations such as ca2+, na+, mg2+ and k+ and the anions like po4-,...

Nanomaterials are widely used as pseudostationary and stationary phases in electrically driven separations. The advantages of using nanomaterials are numerous including tunable sizes, multiple core compositions, flexible injection schemes, and diverse surface chemistries. Nanomaterials, however, exhibit large surface energies which induce aggregation and may yield unpredictable function in sepa...

Using ab initio methods, we examine the electronic structure of substrate-supported metal films. We predict a coexistence between charge-transfer valence-bond states and bandlike metallic states. The role of the support composition in determining the balance of bond and band states is elucidated for Pt on Aland O-terminated -Al2O3, and we reveal how this coexistence evolves with metal film thic...

A semiempirical epitaxial model has been derived which correlates and interrelates the surface free energy, ultrastructural morphology, surface charge, surface chemistry, and surface molecular motions of a model triblock copolymer to thrombogenesis. This paper addresses the aspect of: (1) ultrastructure order versus disorder, (2) primary and secondary molecular motions, (3) surface and side cha...

A Monte Carlo sensitivity analysis is used to build a plasma chemistry model for octacyclofluorobutane (cc4F8) which is commonly used in dielectric etch. Experimental data are used both quantitatively and quahtatively to analyze the gas phase and gas surface reactions for neutral radlcal chemistry. The sensitivity data of the resulting model identifies a few critical gas phase and surface aided...

Complex-oxide interfaces host a diversity of phenomena not present in traditional semiconductor heterostructures. Despite intense interest, many basic questions remain about the mechanisms that give rise to interfacial conductivity and the role of surface chemistry in dictating these properties. Here we demonstrate a fully reversible >4 order of magnitude conductance change at LaAlO3/SrTiO3 (LA...

This report investigates the influence of surface chemistry (or wettability) on the evaporation performance of free-standing double-layered thin film on the surface of water. Such newly developed evaporation system is composed of top plasmonic light-to-heat conversion layer and bottom porous supporting layer. Under solar light illumination, the induced plasmonic heat will be localized within th...

We studied the adsorption behavior and surface chemistry of the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) on well-defined metal and insulator surfaces. TMV serves as a tubular supramolecular model system with precisely known surface termination. We show that if the surface chemistry of the substrate and the pH-dependent chemistry of the molecular surface match, for example, by hydrogen bonding, a strong adsor...
