During the initial development period for most CVD processes, the selection of reactant species is quite simple Compounds commercially available for other purposes are considered. These include the traditional organometallic molecules MR, where M represents the metal of interest and R generally is restricted to methyl, ethyl, or other lower alkyl radicals. Several main group elements have volatile hydrides. Recently, unacceptable restrictions imposed on CVD processes by this limited range of precursors have reared their unsightly head, which has led to the development of a number of new source molecules. In this section, the structural motifs of some organometallic molecules are considered. A more detailed discussion of these concepts, as specifically applied to the CVD of metallic films, may be found in a VCH companion book, edited by Kodas and Hampden-Smith [2]. 

The relationship between the diffusion coefficient and polymer structure has been reviewed in detail in the classic text edited by Crank and Park (J). The diffusion coefficient in a polymer is conveniently measured in a sorption experiment. The polymer sample is suspended on a balance and is initially equilibrated with vapor of a given diffusant substance at a certain pressure Pi. It is suddenly exposed to a different pressure Pf of the same vapor, and the rate of absorption of the diffusant is determined. When equilbrium has been attained, the pressure of the diffuant is reduced to Pi, and the rate of desorption is measured. Normally Pi is zero, and the film is initially free of diffusant molecules. 

For decades, colloid and surface scientists have known that amphiphilic molecules such as phospholipids can self-assemble or self-organize themselves into supramolecular structures of bilayer lipid membranes (planar BLMs and spherical liposomes), emulsions, and micelles [2-4]. As a matter of fact, our current understanding of the structure and function of biomembranes can be traced to the studies of these experimental systems such as soap films and Langmuir monolayers, which have evolved as a direct consequence of applications of classical principles of colloid and interfacial chemistry. As already mentioned in Section I, the seminal work on the self-assembly of planar lipid bilayers and bilayer or black lipid membranes was carried out in 1959-1963. The idea started while one of the authors was reading a paperback edition of Soap Bubbles by C. 

The aim of this edition is to provide an up-to-date account of these recent advances. The first chapter describes a fascinating application of the X-ray diffraction technique to the study of the structure-reactivity relationship in electrocatalysis. The next two chapters illustrate the power of UV-visible spectroscopy and epifluorescence microscopy to explore electric field-driven transformations of thin organic films. Two chapters are devoted to non-linear spectroscopies at the liquid-liquid and liquid-solid interfaces, demonstrating the uniqueness of these techniques for revealing the structural details of these buried interfaces. Four chapters give a comprehensive description of applications of infrared spectroscopy to in-situ studies of electrified semiconductor-solution and metal-solution interfaces. The volume is concluded by a chapter that describes the emerging new technique of STM tip-induced surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy. 

Most filmmakers go well beyond the pitch when planning their films. The next step is an outline which, like the pitch, will continue to be revised and honed over the course of production and editing. The outline is where you begin to flesh out your train, by anticipating and sketching out the sequences and the order in which they ll appear. If you re using an act structure, that also will be made apparent. 

On many documentary projects, the film s producer and/or director is also the writer (meaning the individual responsible for story and structure, regardless of whether there is also narration), and in that role also writes narration. At other times, a person identified as the writer may be involved in the project through development, production, and editing, and will therefore take primary responsibility for narration. It s also not uncommon for an editor to rough out pieces of narration as he or she works, which will then be polished in collaboration with the film s writer(s).
