Electron tunnelling tlirough monolayers of long-chain carboxylic acids is one aspect of interest since it was assumed tliat such films could be used as gate electrodes in field-effect transistors or even in devices depending on electron tunnelling [24, 26, 35, 36, 37 and 38]- It was found, however, tliat tlie whole subject depends critically on... 

Our lack of knowledge concerning the mechanisms of molecular recombination has serious consequences for plasma modeling. If the measured data are subject to three-body and field effects, then their application to low-density plasmas (e.g. space plasmas) is questionable. For this reason, studies that focus on recombination... 

From the foregoing discussion of electric field effects In Ionic equlibria It Is clear that a solution of a weak electrolyte shows a non-linear behavior In conductance (or resistance) at high field strengths. With an Interdisciplinary look at the field of electronics we note that such nonlinearities are at the heart of all modern electronic circuits and devices. We therefore can use a solution of a weak electrolyte subjects to high electric fields as an electronic device, which Is the basic Idea of the Field Modulation Tecnnlque, the general principles we will discuss now. 

Fio. 15. Fractional field effect at 17 kOe, Akt7, for a-Cr203 subject to progressive Hj poisoning. Poisoning and measurements made at 318 K (O) and at 296 K ( ). The time involved, from left to right, was about 2 hr. 

Induction of New Phenomena by Imposed Gradients. Studies on the effects of imposed electric fields on chemical waves (see below on signal propagation) show that phenomena can be induced in the system by the imposed gradient that do not exist in the field free medium. For example, it was found (l l) that for a system wherein only one type of wave existed in the field free case, two stable types of waves exist in the system subject to the field. This "induction of multiplicity" implies that beyond a critical value of the applied field strength new phenomena may set in that are not simple distortions of field free patterns. Another strictly imposed field effect is found in the case of a new two dimensional crescent shaped wave that occurs when a circular wave is subjected to a supracritical field (15). 

Imposed Field Effects. In this section we have set forth a set of equations to describe pattern formation in a multicellular electrophysiological system. A central goal of the theory is to study the effects of applied electric fields. This is done by imposing appropriate boundary conditions on the equations developed here. For example, assume we subject a one dimensional tissue to fixed ionic currents 1. Then if the tissue is in the interval 0 x along the x axis, the boundary conditions for the electro-diffusion model of the small gradient theory, i.e. (6k), are replaced by J = I at x = 0, L. One expects the richness of effects to include hyperpolarizability, induction of new phenomena and imperfect bifurcations to be found in these systems... 

The renewed interested in ZnO as an optoelectronic material has been triggered by reports on p-type conductivity, diluted ferromagnetic properties, thin film oxide field effect transistors, and considerable progress in nanostructure fabrication. All these topics are the subject of a recently published book [11],... 

The optical properties of GalnN/GaN quantum wells differ somewhat from the well-known behaviour of other III-V-based strained quantum well structures, partly due to the rather strong composition and well width fluctuations, possibly induced by a partial phase separation of InN and GaN. The even more dominant effect seems to be the piezoelectric field characteristic for strained wurtzite quantum wells, which strongly modifies the transition energies and the oscillator strengths. However, the relative influence of localisation and piezoelectric field effect is still subject to considerable controversy. 

As mentioned above, the field-effect experiments on a-Si H have been of basic importance to the subject of this article, and we shall therefore begin with a brief discussion of the principles underlying this experimental method. 

Due to the spin conserving rule, the rate constants of some excitonic interactions are subject to modulation by weak magnetic fields (less than IT). The magnetic field modulation of the singlet exciton fission rate [see Scheme (80)] can be experimentally observed as a magnetic field effect on prompt fluorescence [192,200,201,273-278]. The magnetic field sensitive triplet-triplet (80) and triplet-doublet (110) annihilation... 

We are cognizant that the structural data on hydrogen bonds derived from crystal structure analyses refer particularly to the hydrogen bond in the solid state. These data are subject to crystal field effects caused by other intermolecular forces. Just as with any discussion of covalent or ionic bonds observed in crystals, these crystal field effects have to be taken into consideration when extrapolating from the precise data available from the crystalline state to the imprecise data that applies to the liquid state in which most chemical and biochemical reactions take place. 

In this chapter we deal with the thermodynamic analysis of systems subjected to external fields gravitational, surface, radiation, electric, and magnetic. Not only are the resulting new effects of intrinsic interest, but the analysis provided below sheds new light on the systematics of the procedures outlined in Chapters 1 and 2. The reader is urged to keep this latter view in mind the study of field effects serves as an excellent pedagogical tool for an understanding of thermodynamics as a systematic discipline. 

In order to examine whether the acidities observed in a-C(0)R, a-N02, a-CN and a-CF3 substituted eyelopropanes are correctly explained by a predominating mesomeric effect in the case of the a-C(0)R and a-N02 substituents, and a stronger dipole (field) effect with a-CN and a-CFa substituents Wagner and Boche " investigated this subject by means of STO-3G calculations. It was of interest to determine whether the calculations are able to reproduce the relative acidities of cyclopropyl and isopropyl compounds, as well as the configuration of the corresponding cyclopropyl anions.
