TL;DR: A new family of ternary logic circuits that uses both depletion and enhancement types of complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) transistors is presented.
Abstract: A new family of ternary logic circuits that uses both depletion and enhancement types of complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) transistors is presented. These circuits use two power supplies, each below the transistor's threshold voltages, and do not include resistors. Circuit designs of basic ternary operators (inverters, NAND, NOR) are described. These basic ternary operators can be used as building blocks in the VLSI implementation of three-valued digital systems. An example of the design of a ternary full adder using this family of logic circuits is also presented.

TL;DR: In this article, a thermodynamic model for quadrilateral pyroxene solutions is developed from the following assumptions: 1) Nonconvergent cation-disorder of Fe and Mg occurs over the Ml and M2 sites; 2) Ca is partitioned completely into the M2 site; and 3) Clinopyroxenes unmix to a high-Ca plus low-Ca phase.
Abstract: A thermodynamic model for quadrilateral pyroxene solutions, is developed from the following assumptions: 1) Non-convergent cation-disorder of Fe and Mg occurs over the Ml and M2 sites; 2) Ca is partitioned completely into the M2 site; and 3) Clinopyroxenes unmix to a high-Ca plus low-Ca phase. This ternary model is an extension of Thompson's (1969, 1970) binary model. Model expressions are presented that describe cation distributions, exchange equilibria and chemical potentials of both ternary and quadrilateral components.

TL;DR: Evidence has been obtained that suggests that the initiator ternary complex does not function in the elongation cycle because the dissociation rate of the complex is very fast.
Abstract: A new method for measuring the dissociation rate of the Escherichia coli elongation factor Tu-GTP--aminoacyl-tRNA complex has been developed and applied to the determination of the dissociation rates of ternary complexes formed between E. coli EF-Tu-GTP and a set of E. coli aminoacyl-tRNAs. The set of aminoacyl-tRNAs includes at least one tRNA coding for each of the 20 amino acids as well as purified isoacceptor tRNA species for arginine, glycine, leucine, lysine, and tyrosine. The results reveal that the dissociation rates vary for each ternary complex. Tu-GTP-Gln-tRNA dissociates the slowest and Tu-GTP-Val-tRNA the fastest of all noninitiator ternary complexes at 4 degrees C, pH 7.4. The equilibrium dissociation constant for Tu-GTP-Thr-tRNA has been determined to be 1.3 (0.4) X 10(-9) M under identical reaction conditions, and the absolute value of the equilibrium dissociation constant has been calculated for 28 ternary complexes from the relative equilibrium dissociation constant ratios previously measured [Louie, A., Ribeiro, N. S., Reid, B. R., & Jurnak, F. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 5010-5016]. The association rate of each ternary complex has been estimated from the ratio of the dissociation rate relative to the equilibrium dissociation constant. Tu-GTP-His-tRNA associates the fastest and Tu-GTP-Leu-tRNA1Leu the slowest. By inclusion of Tu-GTP-Met-tRNAfMet in the studies, evidence has been obtained that suggests that the initiator ternary complex does not function in the elongation cycle because the dissociation rate of the complex is very fast.

TL;DR: In this paper, the sign of the heats of mixing along four joins in the ternary reflects the presence or absence of glass-glass immiscibility in the Na20-B 203−SiO2 system.
Abstract: Glasses synthesized in the system Na20-B 203−SiO2 were studied by high-temperature (974 K) solution calorimetry. The sign of the heats of mixing along four joins in the ternary reflects the presence or absence of glass-glass immiscibility. Calculations of binary phase diagrams using thermochemical data and a configurational entropy model give good agreement with experimental determinations, but complexities arise due to the simplicity of the entropy model used.

TL;DR: In this article, the reactions of Pd on atomically clean or air-exposed (100) and (110) GaAs surfaces at temperatures between 20 to 500 C in different ambients were investigated by transmission electron microscopy.
Abstract: The reactions of Pd on atomically clean or air‐exposed (100) and (110) GaAs surfaces at temperatures between 20 to 500 °C in different ambients were investigated by transmission electron microscopy. Interfacial reactions quite different from previous x‐ray results were observed and two new Pd‐Ga‐As ternary phases were identified for the first time. At lower temperatures (T≲250 °C) the formation of a ternary phase PdGa∼0.3As∼0.2, which has a hexagonal structure very similar to that of Pd2Ge or Pd2Si with a0=b0=0.672 nm and c0=0.340 nm, was observed. This ternary phase is epitaxially oriented with (120)ternary∥(100)GaAs and [001]ternary∥[011]GaAs on (100) GaAs substrates, and with (110)ternary∥(110)GaAs and [001]ternary∥[110]GaAs on (110) GaAs substrates. At temperatures between 350 and 500 °C only one phase, PdGa, was observed to form in a high vacuum environment, whereas in a forming gas ambient, either a mixture of PdAs2 and another ternary phase PdGa∼0.6As∼0.4 (at 350 °C) or a mixture of PdAs2 and Pd...

TL;DR: In this article, a perovskite-type phase Sc3AlN1 − x (a = 0.4396-0.4435 nm) occurs at 1273 K. This phase is in equilibrium with ScN, Sc(solid solution), Sc2Al and ScAl.
Abstract: In the ternary ScAlN system a perovskite-type phase Sc3AlN1 − x (a = 0.4396–0.4435 nm) occurs at 1273 K. This phase is in equilibrium with ScN, Sc(solid solution), Sc2Al and ScAl. AlN does not coexist with scandium but does so with ScN, ScAl2 and ScAl3. The binary phase ScAl was found to be orthorhombic with a = 0.502 99 nm, b = 0.989 45 nm and c = 0.312 63 nm. In the Y-Al-N system no ternary phase was found. AlN reacts with up to 40 at.% Y to yield YN and YAl2. Isothermal sections at 1273 K are presented for both ternary systems.

Abstract: We have succeeded in growing epitaxial layers and multilayer heterostructures of In1−xGaxAs1−ySby quaternary and InAs0.92Sb0.08 ternary alloys lattice matched to GaSb by molecular beam epitaxy. High quality epilayers with lattice mismatch Δa/a∼8×10−4, excellent morphology, and efficient photoluminescence were grown. The surface reconstructions during growth of these quaternary and ternary alloys were also investigated using in situ reflection high‐energy electron diffraction.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of the enhancement of the removal of a volatile impurity in a polymer film by the addition of a second solvent is analyzed, and it is shown that more than a 10-fold decrease in the devolatilization time can be achieved using a second solver and appropriate processing conditions.
Abstract: The problem of the enhancement of the removal of a volatile impurity in a polymer film by the addition of a second solvent is analyzed. The introduction of a second solvent that diffuses faster than the impurity can increase the free volume of the system and can thus facilitate removal of the volatile impurity. Solution of the ternary diffusion problem indicates the role of the properties of the second solvent and of processing conditions on the devolatilization effectiveness. It is shown that more than a 10-fold decrease in the devolatilization time can be achieved using a second solvent and appropriate processing conditions.

TL;DR: The phase equilibria in the zirconia-rich part of the system were determined at 1200°, 1400°, and 1650°C as mentioned in this paper, and the ionic conductivities of ternary specimens in this system were measured using the complex impedance analysis technique.
Abstract: The phase equilibria in the zirconia-rich part of the system ZrO2−Yb2O3−Y2O3 were determined at 1200°, 1400°, and 1650°C. The stabilizing effects of Yb2O3 and Y2O3 were found to be quite similar with <10 mol% of either being necessary to fully stabilize the cubic fluorite-structure phase at 1200°C. The two binary ordered phases, Zr3Yb4O12 and Zr3Y4O12, are completely miscible at 1200°C. These were the only binary or ternary phases detected. The ionic conductivities of ternary specimens in this system were measured using the complex impedance analysis technique. For a given level of total dopant, the substitution of Yb2O3 for Y2O3 gives only minor increases in specimen conductivity.

TL;DR: In this paper, an isothermal section of the Ni-Cr-Al system at 1423 K was investigated using Knudsen cell mass spectrometry to determine the activities of nickel, chromium and aluminium.
Abstract: An isothermal section of the Ni-Cr-Al system at 1423 K has been investigated using Knudsen cell mass spectrometry to determine the activities of nickel, chromium and aluminium. These data provide independent measurements, i.e. without the need for integration, of all of the components, both in the binary and ternary systems. The data on the binaries are mutually consistent, as can be seen by the comparisons given between the experimental results and values obtained by integration.

TL;DR: In this paper, the behavior of rare earths with tin and nickel or palladium in the stoichiometric ratio 1:1:1 were studied, and it was confirmed that these alloys have structures belonging to the CeCu2 family (oI12 (CeCu2) or oP12 (TiNiSi).
Abstract: Ternary alloys of the rare earths (R) with tin and nickel or palladium in the stoichiometric ratio 1:1:1 were studied. It was confirmed that these alloys have structures belonging to the CeCu2 family (oI12 (CeCu2) or oP12 (TiNiSi) types). The behaviour of the average atomic volumes of these phases is compared with the behaviour of other series of similar compounds, and the general properties of several RTSn alloys are briefly summarized.

TL;DR: In this article, the thermal conductivity of four pure normal paraffin hydrocarbons (C11, C14, C15, C16) and binary and ternary mixtures of three n-paraffin polymers were measured in the temperature range from about 20 to 90°C at atmospheric pressure.
Abstract: The thermal conductivity of four pure normal paraffin hydrocarbons (C11, C14, C15, C16) and binary and ternary mixtures of three n-paraffin hydrocarbons (C7, C11, C16) have been measured in the temperature range from about 20 to 90°C at atmospheric pressure. Measurements have been performed with the aid of a fully automated transient hot-wire instrument. The accuracy of the reported data is estimated to be ±1.0 to ±1.5%. A new simple and practical equation, which can calculate the thermal conductivity of pure n-paraffin hydrocarbons (4≤n≤ 16) with the uncertainty of ±1%, has been correlated in terms of temperature and number of carbon atoms based on the present results including some other reliable data. Also, a mixing rule for the mixtures of n-paraffin hydrocarbons was proposed and was adequately confirmed by the present results within the experimental error.

TL;DR: In this paper, the low-temperature magnetic susceptibilities and electrical resistivities of a new family of ternary suicides of general formula RMSi 3 are described, where R ≡ La or Ce and M ≡ Co, Rh, Ir, or Ru and Os crystallize in the BaNiSn 3 structure.
Abstract: The low-temperature magnetic susceptibilities and electrical resistivities of a new family of ternary suicides of general formula RMSi 3 are described. These compounds, where R ≡ La or Ce and M ≡ Co, Rh, Ir, or Ru and Os crystallize in the BaNiSn 3 structure. LaRhSi 3 and LaIrSi 3 are found to be superconducting with T c ∼- 2.5 K. In CeRhSi 3 and CeIrSi 3 , the Ce valence is close to 3 and these compounds are Kondo-lattice systems. An anomaly occurs in their susceptibilities at ∼-2 K and 5 K, respectively, accompanied by a sudden change from T to a T 2 regime in their resistivities. At the other end of the series, CeCoSi 3 behaves like a normal metal and becomes superconducting below T c ∼- 1.2 –1.4 K.

TL;DR: In this article, the phase equilibria in the transition-metal-rich area of the ternary SmCo-Fe system have been investigated to determine the Fe solubility in those intermetallic phases occurring in the binary system.
Abstract: The phase equilibria in the transition-metal-rich area of the ternary SmCoFe system have been investigated to determine the Fe solubility in those intermetallic phases occurring in the binary SmCo system. Complete miscibility of Co and Fe is found for the three phases Sm2(Co, Fe)17, Sm(Co, Fe)3, and Sm(Co,Fe)2; whereas only limited Fe solubility exists in SmCo5, Sm2Co7, Sm9Co4, and Sm3Co. No ternary phase forms. Computer calculations of the binary systems SmCo, SmFe and CoFe were carried out using all the thermodynamic and phase diagram data from the literature. On the basis of this description the ternary SmCoFe system was extrapolated and compared with our own experimental results.
