Coupled solution

Fig. 4.5. The degree of approximation for the increase of current in time for uncoupled and weakly coupled solutions for impact-loaded, x-cut quartz and z-cut lithium niobate is shown by comparison to the numerically predicted, fully coupled case. In the figure, the initial current is set to the value of 1.0 at the measured value (after Davison and Graham [79D01]).

The determination of piezoelectric constants from current pulses is based on interpretation of wave shapes in the weak-coupling approximation. It is of interest to use the wave shapes to evaluate the degree of approximation involved in the various models of piezoelectric response. Such an evaluation is shown in Fig. 4.5, in which normalized current-time wave forms calculated from various models are shown for x-cut quartz and z-cut lithium niobate. In both cases the differences between the fully coupled and weakly coupled solutions are observed to be about 1%, which is within the accuracy limits of the calculations. Hence, for both quartz and lithium niobate, weakly coupled solutions appear adequate for interpretation of observed current-time waveforms. On the other hand, the adequacy of the uncoupled solution is significantly different for the two materials. For x-cut quartz the maximum error of about 1%-1.5% for the nonlinear-uncoupled solution is suitable for all but the most precise interpretation. For z-cut lithium niobate the maximum error of about 8% for the nonlinear-uncoupled solution is greater than that considered acceptable for most cases. The linear-uncoupled solution is seriously in error in each case as it neglects both strain and coupling.

Hybrid MPC-MD schemes may be constructed where the mesoscopic dynamics of the bath is coupled to the molecular dynamics of solute species without introducing explicit solute-bath intermolecular forces. In such a hybrid scheme, between multiparticle collision events at times x, solute particles propagate by Newton s equations of motion in the absence of solvent forces. In order to couple solute and bath particles, the solute particles are included in the multiparticle collision step [40]. The above equations describe the dynamics provided the interaction potential is replaced by Vj(rJVs) and interactions between solute and bath particles are neglected. This type of hybrid MD-MPC dynamics also satisfies the conservation laws and preserves phase space volumes. Since bath particles can penetrate solute particles, specific structural solute-bath effects cannot be treated by this rule. However, simulations may be more efficient since the solute-solvent forces do not have to be computed. 

In principle the ISFET is derived from a MOSFET, where the metal is replaced by the couple solution-reference electrode and where a CIM (Chemically Interactive Material) is deposited on the S1O2, the gate oxide. 

If a Saa with free hydroxy groups is used the cyclization is performed with TBTU/HOBt by adding 1 equivalent of HzO per hydroxy group to the linear precursor to prevent inter-molecular acylation. The peptide is then added dropwise to a coupling solution of TBTU/...

Both Na+ and solute combine with a common membrane component (carrier, C) to form a ternary complex with simultaneous translocation of both Na+ and the coupled solute (S). 

Figure 1. A theoretical model for Na+-coupled solute transport. The model assumes a reversible system where only two forms of the carrier are mobile, the empty carrier, C, and the ternary complex, CSNa+. Neither CS nor CNa+ is mobile in either direction so that in absence of Na+ there is no translocation of S. In this model there is random binding of Na+ and S. The net direction of movement will be dictated by the direction of the driving forces. The external and internal milieux are represented by the symbols o and i, respectively.

That Na+ influences either Vmax or Ks of the cotransported solute has been thoroughly documented (Curran et al., 1967 Goldneret al., 1969 Kimmich, 1981 Stein, 1986 Bimir et al., 1991 Parent et al., 1992b). Further, there is a reciprocal capacity of either Na+ or coupled solute to drive the cotransported substance against its own electrochemical gradient (Hajjar et al., 1970 Curran et al., 1970 see also Heinz, 1978 and Stein, 1986 for theoretical treatments). 

Many ambiguities in the study of Na+ (or H+) coupled solute transport have been clarified by the introduction of isolated membrane vesicles to study transport. The inherent property of membranes to seal up and hence form a closed system for measuring translocation has made these preparations popular with investigators. A large variety of cell types and even greater number of solutes have been used in these systems. 

Fig. 1. Contour plots of the four unique orbitals in the single-configuration spin-coupled solution for BH3, at / bh=2.24 a . All plots are drawn in the plane of the nuclei. The upper two plots (contours every 0.2 a.u.) depict the two fully-symmetric inner orbitals. The lower two plots (contours every 0.05 a.u.) depict one of the three symmetry-related orbital pairs. The other two pairs can be obtained by rotations through 120° about an axis going through each orbital plot s origin and perpendicular to the plane of the paper (the molecule s C3 axis). All orbitals are normalized.

Orbital overlaps - single-configuration spin-coupled solution (KBH=2.24 ao). 

A somewhat surprising result emerges as one tries to merge the fully-symmetric single-configuration spin-coupled solution with the six-configuration <7-7r mixed MCSC wavefunction discussed in the previous Subsection.

Unfortunately, evaluating this formula exactly would still require that we know the fully coupled solute-solvent dynamics because it calls for Fext(t) = Fext(q((t)), but since the solvent perturbs the solute vibration only weakly, a perturbative treatment suffices (just as it does quantum mechanically). To leading order, Fext(t) = F Oj, what the solvent force would be if the solute s vibrational mode were held fixed. Thus, the average rate of solute-solvent energy transfer in the steady state is...
