The postulate assuming the photons striking on the material not only increase the thermal energy of the molecules of reactants but also lower down the energy barrier of the reaction to speed up the chemical reaction. It is believed the photon catalysis mechanism is unlversall in most of high temperature chemical reactions and looking forward to more evidences for the postulate proposed in this article.展开更多

The impurity segregation en- ergy and the charge distribution are calculated. The effects of B on the dislocation motion are discussed. The results show that B prefers to segregate at the Center-Al dislocation core. Moreover, B forms strong bonding states with its neighboring host atoms, which may not be beneficial to the motion of the dislocation. Therefore, it can be expected that the strength of NiAl single crystals may be increased.展开更多
