Effect of the degree of template removal from mesoporous silicate materials on their adsorption of heavy oil from aqueous solution
(
Springer VerlagHigher Education Press
, 2014 , Article)
The key aim of this study is to evaluate the adsorption of heavy oil from aqueous solutions with different oil contents over mesoporous silicate materials having different surfactant template contents. The mesoporous ...
Modeling of dual-metal Schottky contacts based silicon micro and nano wire solar cells
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2014 , Article)
We study solar cell properties of single silicon wires connected at their ends to two dissimilar metals of different work functions. Effects of wire dimensions, the work functions of the metals, and minority carrier lifetimes ...
Rheology of a viscoelastic zwitterionic surfactant used in acid stimulation: Effects of surfactant and electrolyte concentration
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
Acid diversion systems play an important role in increasing the efficiency of the acid stimulation process. Viscoelastic surfactant (VES) based diverting systems have many advantages that make them preferred for well acid ...
Hydrogen bond coupling in sodium dihydrogen triacetate
(
Springer Verlag
, 2014 , Article)
The coupling of hydrogen bonds is central to structures and functions of biological systems. Hydrogen bond coupling in sodium dihydrogen triacetate (SDHTA) is investigated as a model for the hydrogen bonded systems of the ...
Photoconductive response of strained silicon nanowires: A Monte Carlo study
(
AIP Publishing LLC.
, 2014 , Article)
Using Ensemble Monte Carlo simulations, the photocurrent in a 500 nm long strained [110] silicon nanowire with diameter of 3.1 nm is investigated. It was observed that a phototransistor based on this nanowire can have ...
Optimization of selection of chain amine scrubbers for CO2 capture
(
Springer Verlag
, 2014 , Article)
In order to optimize the selection of a suitable amine molecule for CO2 scrubbers, a series of ab initio calculations were performed at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory. Diethylenetriamine was used as a simple chain ...
Mechanism of GaAs surface sulfidation
(
Electrochemical Science Group
, 2014 , Article)
The mechanism of GaAs sulfidation under illumination and potentiodynamic polarization was investigated in acidified thiourea (TU) electrolytes. Sulfidation generated smooth surfaces, as revealed by scanning electron ...
