Fractal sets compartmentalized systems

Regarding the dependence of the reaction efficiency on the dimensionality of the compartmentalized system, the studies reported in Sections III.B.3 and III.B.4 on processes taking place on sets of fractal dimension showed that, consistent with the results found for spaces of integer dimension, the higher the dimensionality of the lattice, the more efficient the trapping process, ceteris paribus. Processes within layered diffusion spaces, which can be characterized using an approach based on the stochastic master equation (4.3), show a gradual transition in reaction efficiency from the behavior expected in c( = 2 to that in = 3 as the number k of layers increases from fe = 1 to k = 11.
