Polarization amplifier

Fig. 13.13. A three-body polarization amplifier, (a) A represents a non-polarizable cation, B and C are polarizable molecules (C is the amplifier), (b) An electroscope. C is a metal wire, B represents two strips of paper, (c) The molecular amplifier resembles an electroscope with A being a positively charged metal ball, C a metal wire (i.e. a body with high polarizability) and B undergoes a huge charge redistribution due to the mediation of wire C.

DifTerential amplifier. An operational amplifier with two inputs of opposite-gain polarity with respect to its output. Differential-output amplifiers can also have two opposite-sense outputs. 

Both the chemical solubility and the electrical properties are consistent with those expected of a lightly polar polymer, whilst reactivity is consistent with that of a polymer containing hydrolysable carbonate ester linkages partially protected by aromatic hydrocarbon groupings. The influence of these factors on specific properties is amplified in subsequent sections. 

The electrochemical circuitry required for SECM is relatively straightforward. Since the interface is not generally externally polarized in SECM measurements of liquid-liquid interfaces, a simple two-electrode system suffices (Fig. 3). A potential is applied to the tip, with respect to a suitable reference electrode, to drive the process of interest at the tip and the corresponding current that flows is typically amplified by a current-to-voltage converter.

The dead-end setup is by far the easiest apparatus both in construction and use. Reactor and separation unit can be combined and only one pump is needed to pump in the feed. A cross-flow setup, on the other hand, needs a separation unit next to the actual reactor and an additional pump to provide a rapid circulation across the membrane. The major disadvantage of the dead-end filtration is the possibility of concentration polarization, which is defined as an accumulation of retained material on the feed side of the membrane. This effect causes non-optimal membrane performance since losses through membrane defects, which are of course always present, will be amplified by a high surface concentration. In extreme cases concentration polarization can also lead to precipitation of material and membrane fouling. A membrane installed in a cross-flow setup, preferably applied with a turbulent flow, will suffer much less from this... 

From the manner in which 7ra-7rb overlap in 1 arises primarily from the region of the connecting atoms C2 and C3, it is apparent that polarity changes that amplify the orbitals in this connecting region will enhance the conjugative interaction.
