In VTE arrival of the individual molecules can be described as ballistic transport, thus the mfp is comparable with the crucible-substrate distance. Consequently the symmetry of the crucible, for example point source, multiple point source or linear source, and the texture of the organic materials loaded, is reflected in the thickness uniformity and layer coverage of the substrate. This explains the shadowing effects observed for structured substrates [12, 40, 44], As a result, coverage of the substrate by VTE is less uniform and may lead to pin-holes and is obviously not as perfect or quantitative as in OVPD. To reduce this disadvantage in VTE and to improve layer uniformity and coverage VTE uses, for example, substrate rotation to randomize the ballistic trajectories. 

The effect of an 8-propynyl group on dA has been studied in quadruplex structures. The effect was to increase the stability of the quadruplex due to an increase in the syn glycosidic conformation." An 8-histaminyl-dA phosphor-amidite has been incorporated into DNA, where it was suggested it might be useful to probe nucleic acid structures." 8-Chloro-dA has been examined as a substrate both as its 5 -triphosphate and in a template by the polymerase Klenow (exo-) fragment. Although it behaved as dA, incorporation efficiency was reduced." ... 

The stability of the crystalline and amorphous phases at the interface is a matter of kinetics and temperature. At high temperatures, the amorphous region remains randomized. At low temperatures, the structure is effectively frozen in, with only small changes in structure possible over long time periods. It is only at intermediate temperatures, roughly half the randomization temperature T, that the crystalline substrate can effectively serve as a seed for crystallization to extend into the amorphous region on a feasible time scale. 

Additional alterations in the work terms with the electrode material for outer-sphere reactions may arise from discreteness-of-charge effects or from differences in the nature of the reactant-solvent interactions in the bulk solution and at the reaction plane. Thus metals that strongly chemisorb inner-layer solvent (e.g., HjO at Pt) also may alter the solvent structure in the vicinity of the outer plane, thereby influencing k bs variations in the stability of the outer-sphere precursor (and successor) states. Such an effect has been invoked to explain the substantial decreases (up to ca. 10 -fold) in the rate constants for some transition-metal aquo couples seen when changing the electrode materiaf from Hg to more hydrophilic metals such as Pt. Much milder substrate effects are observed for the electroreduction of more weakly solvated ammine complexes . 

We now turn to a microscopic treatment of the. Toule-Thomson effect and begin with the limit of vanishing density. Th(j treatment below is very sinrilar to the one presented in Section 3.2.2 where we derived molecular expressions for the first few virial coefficients of the one-dimensional hard-rod fluid. Here it is important to realize that a mechanical expression for the grand potential exists for a fluid confined to a slit-pore with chemically structured substrate surfaces as we demonstrated in Section 1.6.1 [see Eq. (1.65)]. Combining this cxpres.sion with the tnolocular expression given in Eq. (2.81) we may write...
