Multiscale Modeling and Experimental Study of CO2 Absorption into Ionic Liquid Reverse Micelle

Shi W., Hong L., Kusuma V.A., Hopkinson D.P., National Energy Technology Laboratory, US

Highly viscous solvents for gas absorption will lead to large pumping power requirement and large absorption/desorption tower, resulting in high capital cost. Ionic liquids (ILs) represent such examples even though ILs have been extensively studied [...]

Surface Shaping by Ion Beams at Grazing Incidence: Simulations vs. Experiment

Stepanova M., Dew S.K., University of Alberta, CA

Miniaturization of electronic technologies highlights special approaches such as selforganization of nanostructures. Particularly, surface etching by ion beams at grazing incidence is of interest for applications, because it provides pronounced submicron size, self-organized ripples. Formation [...]
