Our values agree well with those of Campbell et al.4 for CH3OH and C2H5OH, while for l-C3H7OH their value is ~30% lower than ours; they used a rate constant for the reaction of OH + n-butane of 1.4 X 1012 cm3 mol"1 s"1, if the more recent value of 1.65 X 1012 cm3 mol"1 s"1 is used,15 very good agreement is obtained for all alcohols. Our value for 2-C3H7OH is somewhat lower than, but within the wide error limits of
Near-surface (∼1000 Å) modification in the net carrier concentration in n-type InP (n=6×1015–1.5×1017 cm−3) was observed after reactive ion etching (RIE) in Cl-based (CCl2F2/O2) or organic-based (C2H6/H2) discharges. The carrier loss is slightly more pronounced in the latter case, due possibly to the creation of deep level, compensating acceptors at greater depths as a result of implantation of the light hydrogen ions. Near-complete recovery of the initial carrier density occurs after annealing at 500 °C for 30 s. Structural disorder is detected by ion channeling to depths of ∼400 Å after C2H6/H2 RIE with a self-bias of 380 V. This disorder shows significant recovery after 400 °C, 30 s annealing. Current-voltage measurements on Au Schottky diodes showed ohmic behavior after etching of the InP in a C2H6/H2 discharge, due to the nonstoichiometric surface remaining after RIE. Diodes fabricated on CCl2F2/O2 etched material show only a slight increase in reverse current compared to unetched control samples.
The results of microwave and radio frequency spectroscopy of the weakly bound complexes of hydrogen fluoride with carbon dioxide and carbonyl sulfide are presented. The following spectroscopic constants are determined: A nearly linear hydrogen bonded equilibrium structure with an O–H bond length of ∼1.9 Å is consistent with all the experimental data. The stretching force constant, estimated from the distortion constant to be ks = 0.021 mdyne/Å for CO2–HF, appears anomalously small for such a short bond.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
