Regulation of Pulse01:20

Regulation of Pulse

2.3K
Pulse regulation involves physiological mechanisms that ensure adequate blood flow throughout the body. The heartbeat, regulated by the autonomic nervous system, is influenced by hormonal balance, physical activity, and emotional state.

Properties of Transition Metals02:58

Properties of Transition Metals

29.7K
Transition metals are defined as those elements that have partially filled d orbitals. As shown in Figure 1, the d-block elements in groups 3–12 are transition elements. The f-block elements, also called inner transition metals (the lanthanides and actinides), also meet this criterion because the d orbital is partially occupied before the f orbitals.

Oxidation Numbers

42.5K
In redox reactions, the transfer of electrons occurs between reacting species. Electron transfer is described by a hypothetical number called the oxidation number (or oxidation state). It represents the effective charge of an atom or element, which is assigned using a set of rules.

Phase Transitions

23.1K
Whether solid, liquid, or gas, a substance's state depends on the order and arrangement of its particles (atoms, molecules, or ions). Particles in the solid pack closely together, generally in a pattern. The particles vibrate about their fixed positions but do not move or squeeze past their neighbors. In liquids, although the particles are closely spaced, they are randomly arranged. The position of the particles are not fixed—that is, they are free to move past their neighbors to...

Pyruvate Oxidation01:15

Pyruvate Oxidation

168.7K
After glycolysis, the charged pyruvate molecules enter the mitochondria via active transport and undergo three enzymatic reactions. These reactions ensure that pyruvate can enter the next metabolic pathway so that energy stored in the pyruvate molecules can be harnessed by the cells.
First, the enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase removes the carboxyl group from pyruvate and releases it as carbon dioxide. The stripped molecule is then oxidized and releases electrons, which are then picked up by NAD+...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Surface Science
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Scanning probe lithography is crucial for device fabrication but suffers from uncontrolled oxidation and etching due to complex interfacial reactions.
  • The underlying mechanisms governing the transition between oxidation and etching remain unclear, hindering effective control.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the role of pulsed bias in controlling interfacial reactions during scanning probe lithography.
  • To elucidate the transition mechanism between oxidation and etching at the atomic scale on silicon carbide surfaces.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized pulsed bias in scanning probe lithography to manipulate ion transport and electron transfer.
  • Performed density functional theory (DFT) and electronic structure calculations to analyze reaction pathways and energy barriers.
  • Employed high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM) to assess structural integrity.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated tunable atomic-level oxidation and etching patterns on 4H-SiC (0001) surfaces by adjusting pulse parameters.
  • DFT calculations revealed that bias-driven charge transfer modulates transition-state energy barriers and Si-C bond strength.
  • Confirmed intact lattice structures without subsurface damage in etched regions via HAADF-STEM.

Conclusions:

  • Pulsed bias effectively regulates the competition between ion transport and electron transfer, enabling selective oxidation or etching.
  • Provided theoretical insights into atomic-scale oxidation and etching mechanisms and their tunable transition.
  • The findings have significant implications for fabricating advanced wide-bandgap semiconductor devices with enhanced performance and stability.
