This model of a carbon nanotube shows that it consists of several concentric tubes. Such layered structures are very strong. 

Stelzer et al. [109] have studied the case of a nematic phase in the vicinity of a smooth solid wall. A distance-dependent potential was applied to favour alignment along the surface normal near the interface that is, a homeotropic anchoring force was applied. The liquid crystal was modelled with the GB(3.0, 5.0, 2, 1) potential and the simulations were run at temperatures and densities corresponding to the nematic phase. Away from the walls the molecules behave just as in the bulk. However, as the wall is approached, oscillations appear in the density profile indicating that a layered structure is induced by the interface, as we can see from the snapshot in Fig. 19. These layers are... 

Such layer structure does not allow ns to say a priori that hybridization of DNA will be possible, for it is protected by the octadecylamine layer. In order to control for this possibility, fluorescence measurements were performed. The first indication that hybridization was successful is that after the process, the sample surface became wettable, while before it and after cold hybridization it was not wettable at all. The results of the fluorescence measurements are summarized in Table 10. The results of the specific hybridization are three times more with respect to unspecific hybridization and one order of magnitude more with respect to cold hybridization. Thus, it appears that during a normal hybridization (100% homology) some structural changes and redistribution of the layer takes place. As a result, DNA becomes available for the specific reaction. Such a model also explains why the fluorescence level after unspecific hybridization (10% homology) is higher with respect to cold hybridization. Because the molecules have some mobility when the film is warmed, some DNA from the film could be hybridized on itself, while during cold hybridization this is impossible. 

Of crucial significance in deciding between various models have been estimates of the number of copper atoms required to transform the surface into a (2 x 3)N phase. This was the approach adopted by Takehiro et al 2 in their study of NO dissociation at Cu(110). They concluded that by determining the stoichiometry of the (2 x 3)N phase that there is good evidence for a pseudo-(100) model, where a Cu(ll0) row penetrates into the surface layer per three [ll0]Cu surface rows. It is the formation of the five-coordinated N atoms that drives the reconstruction. The authors are of the view that their observations are inconsistent with the added-row model. The structure of the (2 x 3)N phase produced by implantation of nitrogen atoms appears to be identical with that formed by the dissociative chemisorption of nitric oxide. 

Figure 8.20 Structure and phase sequence of prototypical bent-core mesogen NOBOW (8) are given, along with space-filling model showing one of many conformational minima obtained using MOPAC with AMI force field. With observation by Tokyo Tech group of polar EO switching for B2 smectic phases formed by mesogens of this type, banana LC field was bom. Achiral, polar C2v layer structure, with formation of macroscopic spontaneous helix in polarization field (and concomitant chiral symmetry breaking), was proposed to account for observed EO behavior.

Alben and Boutron suggest that the peak in the X-ray and neutron scattering functions at 1.7 A-1 is indicative of an anisotropic layer structure extending over at least 15 A in Polk type continuous random network models. To show this better Fig. 52 displays the radial distribution function of the Alben-Boutron modified...

The presence of the diffuse layer determines the shape of the capacitance-potential curves. For a majority of systems, models describing the double-layer structure are oversimplified because of taking into account only the charge of ions and neglecting their specific nature. Recently, these problems have been analyzed using new theories such as the modified Poisson-Boltzmann equation, later developed by Lamper-ski. The double-layer capacitanties calculated from these equations are...
