Adsorption Isotherms II01:25

Adsorption Isotherms II

118
Brunauer, Emmett, and Teller (BET) introduced a theory in 1938 that modified Langmuir's assumptions to explain multilayer physical adsorption. This theory is applicable to Type II isotherms and provides a more realistic picture of adsorption processes. The BET theory assumes a uniform solid surface with localized adsorption sites, where adsorption at one site doesn't affect adsorption at neighboring sites. This theory also allows for the possibility of additional molecules being adsorbed on top...

Alterations in Respiration II01:30

Alterations in Respiration II

2.4K
There are numerous types of normal and abnormal respiration. Based on ventilatory movements, breathing patterns are classified as regular, deep, or shallow. Examples include Biot's breathing, Cheyne-Stokes respiration, Kussmaul's breathing, hyperventilation, and hypoventilation. Each pattern is clinically significant and aids in evaluating patients.
In Biot's breathing, the respiratory rate and depth are irregular, alternating between periods of deep gasping and apnea. Common causes...

The Electrical Double Layer01:30

The Electrical Double Layer

194
In the region where two bulk phases meet, an intricate electric charge distribution arises due to charge transfer, ion adsorption, molecular orientation, and charge distortion. This complex distribution is commonly referred to as the electrical double layer.When a solid electrode interfaces with ions in an electrolyte solution, the speed of electron transfer dictates the rates of oxidation and reduction. The electrode acquires a charge through the escape of atoms into the solution as cations or...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Black phosphorus (BP) is a novel 2D layered material with significant potential in nanoelectronics and optoelectronics.
  • Understanding the fundamental properties of few-layer BP is crucial for its technological applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To characterize and understand the low-frequency (LF) interlayer breathing modes (<100 cm⁻¹) in few-layer black phosphorus (BP).
  • To establish LF breathing modes as a tool for probing BP's crystalline orientation and thickness.

Main Methods:

  • Raman spectroscopy with laser polarization dependence study.
  • First-principles theory and group theory analysis.
  • Temperature-dependent Raman measurements (-150 to 30 °C).

Main Results:

  • The LF interlayer breathing modes in few-layer BP were identified and assigned to Ag symmetry.
  • These LF modes exhibit a stronger dependence on the number of layers compared to high-frequency (HF) modes.
  • LF breathing modes show weak anharmonic behavior, unlike the strongly anharmonic HF modes.

Conclusions:

  • LF interlayer breathing modes are a sensitive probe for few-layer BP thickness and crystalline orientation.
  • The distinct anharmonic behavior of LF modes provides further understanding of BP's lattice dynamics.
