Compatibility of polymeric materials governs their suitability for nearly all potential applications. An aspect of compatibility that is frequently important for fluoropolymers is their ability to isolate fluids by serving as a barrier to mass transport. This property is commonly expressed as permeability. In ideal cases, both solubility and diffusivity are constant at any given temperature and so the permeability is also a constant.(omitted)

The current-voltage characteristics of the semiconducting BaTiO3 ceramics are measured in the range of 0.01∼100 Volt. Non ohmic behavior was observed above Tc. This behavior is not dependent on specimen thickness and is not observed at the incomplete semiconducting sepcimen. From this experiment, non-ohmic behavior of PTC is attributed to Heywang's potential barrier not to space change limited current. In the low voltage range, current-voltage characteristics of PTC ceramics can be explained by Heywang model.

The reaction path Smoluchowski equation approach developed in a recent work to calculate the rate constant for a diffusive multidimensional barrier crossing process is extended to incorporate the configuration-dependent diffusion matrix. The resulting formalism is then applied to the investigation of stilbene photoisomerization dynamics. Adapting a model two-dimensional potential and a model diffusion matrix proposed by Agmon and Kosloff [J. Phys. Chem.,91 (1987) 1988], we derive an eigenvalue equlation for the relaxation rate constant of the stilbene photoisomerization. This eigenvalue equation is solved numerically by using the finite element method. The advantages and limitations of the present method are discussed.

Pores can form and grow in biomembranes because of factors such as thermal fluctuation, transmembrane electrical potential, and cellular environment. We propose a new statistical physics model of the pore growth treated as a non-Markovian stochastic process, with a free energy barrier and memory friction from the membrane matrix treated as a quasi-two-dimensional viscoelastic and dielectric fluid continuum.(omitted)

An idealized linear collision model has been employed to calculate the reaction probabilities for the three-atom rearrangement reaction $A+B-C{\to}A-B+C$. Potential energy surface used is also a highly idealized one with constant values. Numerical results were obtained for the system in which the atomic masses of all three atoms are the same. Potentials were varied to see the effect of the magnitude of the opposing potential barrier on the reaction probabilities. Results obtained were compared with those obtained using different models.

The green microstructure and sintering behavior of ZrO2 were analyzed in terms of kinetic stability (measured by the stability ratio ; W) and interfacial characteristics of colloidal suspension. Green density and the most frequent pore radius(MFPR) of green body were directly correlated with the stability ratio. These observations were explained using a concept of the critical stability ratio(Wc) and the potential energy of two interacting particles in colloidal suspension. Analysis of the data also indicates that the potential energy barrier between two interacting colloid particles should be higher than its critical value for a fabrication of ZrO2 green body with dense and uniform microstructure. Besides, we have successfully applied a concept of the donoracceptor interaction to increase the kinetic stability of ZrO2 slip and density of green body.

This paper has presented the dependence of the threshold voltage on back gate bias and drain voltage for FinFET. The FinFET has three gates such as the front gate, side and back gate. Threshold voltage is defined as the front gate bias when drain current is 1 micro ampere as the onset of the turn-on condition. In this paper threshold voltage is investigated into the analytical potential model derived from three dimensional Poisson's equation with the variation of the back gate bias and drain voltage. The threshold voltage of a transistor is one of the key parameters in the design of CMOS circuits. The threshold voltage, which described the degree of short channel effects, has been extensively investigated. As known from the down scaling rules, the threshold voltage has been presented in the case that drain voltage is the 1.0V above, which is set as the maximum supply voltage, and the drain induced barrier lowing(DIBL), drain bias dependent threshold voltage, is obtained using this model.

The two correlation times previously obtained in our coupled $^{13}C$ relaxation measurement for the methyl group in 2,6-dichlorotoluene may be used as a criterion for evaluating the reorientation dynamics of an internal rotor. We numerically tested an extended diffusion model and the Smoluchowski diffusion equation to see how the rotational inertial effect and jump character contribute to the internal correlation time ratio of the internal rotor. We also analytically solved the general jump model with three different rate constants in a sixfold symmetric potential barrier. By assuming that the internal rotation of the methyl group in 2,6-dichlorotoluene can be described in terms of jumps among sixfold harmonic potential wells, we can conclude that the jump model satisfactorily reproduce the experimental data and the rate for sixfold jump is at least 1.53 times as great as that of a threefold jump.

Geosynthetic Clay Liners (GCLs) have been used for the applications of the hydraulic containment system in landfill due to inexpensive costs, simple workability and distinguished ability as a barrier material. However, bentonite of GCLs is easy to be damaged by the chemical solutions. Thus, there is a need to evaluate the potential susceptibility of GCLs causing Increase the hydraulic conductivity when GCLs are exposed to raw leachate and dissolved humic substances from landfill leachate. The hydraulic conductivity tests were performed with flexible-wall permeameter (the falling -headwater/rising -tailwater procedure) in order to verify the potential susceptibility of GCLs. The values of the hydraulic conductivity conducted with raw leachate as a permeant liquid increased considerably; however, The change of the hydraulic conductivity in the case of humic and fulvic acid were not worthy of notice. As the results of swelling tests of bentonite, however, humic substances can affect badly on the dispersion behavior of bentonite. These results indicate that humic substances dissolved in leachate could reduce the hydraulic conductivity of GCLs in landfill.

The atomic scale details of the melting of solid argon were monitored with the aid of molecular dynamics simulations. The potential energy distribution is substantially disturbed by an increase in the interatomic distance and the random of set distance from the lattice points, with increasing temperature. The potential energy barriers between the lattice points decrease in magnitude with the temperature. Eventually, at the melting point, these barriers can be overcome by atoms that are excited with the entropy gain acquired when the atoms obtain rotational freedom in their atomic motion, and the rotational freedom leads to the collapse of the crystal structure. Furthermore, it was found that the surface of crystals plays an important role in the melting process: the surface eliminates the barrier for the nucleation of the liquid phase and facilitates the melting process. Moreover, the atomic structure of the surface varies with increasing temperature, first via surface roughening and then, before the bulk melts, via surface melting.
