Dynamic behavior of a rotary nanomotor in argon environments.

When argon is used as a protecting gas in the fabrication or working environment of a nanodevice, absorption of some argon atoms onto the surface of the device lead to different responses. In this work, the rotation of the rotor in a carbon nanotube (CNT)-based rotary nanomotor in argon environment is investigated. In the rotary nanomotor, two outer CNTs act as the stator and are used to constrain the inner CNT (i.

Robust rotation of rotor in a thermally driven nanomotor.

In the fabrication of a thermally driven rotary nanomotor with the dimension of a few nanometers, fabrication and control precision may have great influence on rotor's stability of rotational frequency (SRF). To investigate effects of uncertainty of some major factors including temperature, tube length, axial distance between tubes, diameter of tubes and the inward radial deviation (IRD) of atoms in stators on the frequency's stability, theoretical analysis integrating with numerical experiments are carried out. From the results obtained via molecular dynamics simulation, some key points are illustrated for future fabrication of the thermal driven rotary nanomotor.

Rotation measurements of a thermally driven rotary nanomotor with a spring wing.

Due to the extremely small dimensions and super high frequency of the rotor in a thermally driven rotary nanomotor made from carbon nanostructures, measuring the rotational frequency of the nanomotor is still an open issue. To this end, a measuring system is constructed in which a spring wing is connected with the rotor to provide collisions with a probe tip whose deflection reflects the rotational frequency of the rotor. The spring wing is formed by connecting an end-tube from a carbon nanotube and a graphene with differently hydrogenated surfaces.

A method for measuring rotation of a thermal carbon nanomotor using centrifugal effect.

A thermal nanomotor is relatively easy to fabricate and regulate as it contains just a few or even no accessory devices. Since the double-wall carbon nanotube (CNT)-based rotary nanomotor was established in a thermostat, assessment of the rotation of the rotor (inner tube) in the stator (outer tube) of the nanomotor has been critical, but remains challenging due to two factors: the small size of the rotor (only a few nanometers) and the high rotational frequency (»1 GHz). To measure the rotation of the nanomotor, in the present study, a probe test method is proposed.

Pilot regulation of MnP-SA for treating PTA wastewater.

In the pilot study of treating the purified terephthalic acid (PTA) wastewater with the functional Strain Fhhh in the carrier activated sludge process (CASP), the ratio of COD: TN: TP and the concentrations of Cu, Mn, Se and Zn were controlled to improve the manganese peroxidase (MnP) levels for increasing the treatment efficiency. When the ratio of COD: TN: TP was 100: 0.36: 0.
