Range

14.3K
The range is one of the measures of variation. It can be defined as the difference between a dataset's highest and lowest values. For example, in the study of seven 16-ounce soda cans, the filled volume of soda was measured, thus producing the following amount (in ounces) of soda:
15.9; 16.1; 15.2; 14.8; 15.8; 15.9; 16.0; 15.5
Measurements of the amount of soda in a 16-ounce can vary since different subjects record these measurements or since the exact amount - 16 ounces of liquid, was not...

Factors Affecting Dissolution: Polymorphism, Amorphism and Pseudopolymorphism

736
Polymorphism refers to the existence of a drug substance in multiple crystalline forms, known as polymorphs. Recently, this term has been expanded to include solvates (forms containing a solvent), amorphous forms (non-crystalline forms), and desolvated solvates (forms from which the solvent has been removed).
Some polymorphic crystals possess lower aqueous solubility than their amorphous counterparts, leading to incomplete absorption. For instance, the oral suspension of Chloramphenicol, which...

¹H NMR: Long-Range Coupling

2.7K
The coupling interactions of nuclei across four or more bonds are usually weak, with J values less than 1 Hz. While these are usually not observed in spectra, the presence of multiple bonds along the coupling pathway can result in observable long-range coupling.
In alkenes, spin information is communicated via σ–π overlap, as seen in allylic (four-bond) and homoallylic (five-bond) couplings. These coupling interactions are stronger when the σ bond is parallel to the alkene...

Scatter Plot

The most common and easiest way to display the relationship between two variables, x and y, is a scatter plot. A scatter plot shows the direction of a relationship between the variables. A clear direction happens when there is either:

Quantifying Work

As a system undergoes a change, its internal energy can change, and energy can be transferred from the system to the surroundings, or from the surroundings to the system.

Raman Spectroscopy: Overview01:20

Raman Spectroscopy: Overview

1.8K
The underlying principle of Raman spectroscopy is based on the interaction between light and matter, specifically molecules' inelastic scattering of photons. When a monochromatic beam of light, typically from a laser source, interacts with a sample, most scattered light has the same frequency as the incident light. This is known as Rayleigh scattering.
However, a small fraction of the scattered light exhibits a frequency shift due to the exchange of energy between the incident photons and...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • Spectroscopy

Background:

  • Amorphous silicon (a-Si) lacks long-range atomic order, making its structural characterization challenging.
  • Understanding short-range order (SRO) in a-Si is crucial for its electronic and optical properties.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a quantitative method for determining the short-range order (SRO) in amorphous silicon (a-Si) using Raman scattering.
  • To establish a universal framework applicable across different a-Si preparation methods.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized established Raman scattering frameworks for spectral line-shape and size-dependent peak shift analysis.
  • Proposed a theoretical line-shape function based on a modified phonon confinement model.
  • Introduced an empirical formula derived from the bond polarizability model.

Main Results:

  • Established an analogy between 'confinement size' in nanocrystalline silicon and SRO distance in a-Si.
  • Developed a method to quantify SRO distance directly from the Raman peak position.
  • Validated the proposed methods using three independent datasets from diverse a-Si samples.

Conclusions:

  • Raman scattering can effectively quantify the short-range order in amorphous silicon.
  • The proposed theoretical and empirical approaches offer a universal and accessible method for SRO analysis in a-Si.
