Wind power has been recognized as one of the important green energy resources in Taiwan. However, installing large-capacity wind generators needs to meet many environmental regulations, limiting the penetration of wind power to households/communities. In this paper, the design of a novel double-deck vertical-axis wind generator for households is presented, hoping "many a little makes a mickle" and making better use of green energy to reduce carbon emission. The proposed wind generator is an axial-flux permanent-magnet (PM) synchronous generator, which design is different from other existing wind generators in several aspects: (1) double decks for double wind turbines vs. single turbine, (2) silicon-steel-lamination-cored vs. air-cored for armature coils, and (3) axial-flux PM generator vs. conventional PM generator. The performance of the proposed design is simulated with the aid of a finite element software package. The experimental results are consistent with the simulation. The prototype of the proposed wind generator is also compared with a commercial mini wind generator on the market. The proposed wind generator produces satisfactory results.

Novel copolymers based on acrylamide （AM） and complex pseudorotaxane monomer N＇-（3-vinylbenzyl）-l,4- diaminobutane dihydrochloride with cucurbit[6]uril （CB[6]） （3VBCB） were prepared via free-radical polymerization in aqueous solution, and characterized by XH-NMR, FT-IR, elemental analysis and static light scattering. The compositions of the copolymers （PAM3VBCB） with pseudorotaxane units were determined by 1H-NMR and elemental analysis. Thermal properties of the copolymers were studied by TGA, and the effects of the copolymer concentration and pH on the average hydrodynamic radius （Rh） of the copolymer molecules were studied by dynamic light scattering （DLS）. The experiment data show that CB[6] beads are localized on 1,4-diaminobutane units in side chains of the copolymers. TGA results show that thermal stability of the copolymer increases with increasing the content of pseudorotaxane unit because of the enhanced rigidity and the bulky steric hindrance of 3VBCB in side chains of PAM3VBCB. DLS data show that the average hydrodynamic radius of copolymer molecules increases with the increase in the copolymer concentration, and both the pH and electrical conductivity of PAM3VBCB solutions demonstrate an acute change with addition of NaOH because of CB[6] dethreading from the side chains of PAM3VBCB. CB[6] threading and dethreading of PAM3VBCB could be controlled by addition of BaC12 and Na2SO4.

Borohydrides have been recently hightlighted as prospective new materials due to their high gravimetric capacities for hydrogen storage. It is, therefore, important to under- stand the underlying dehydrogenation mechanisms for further development of these ma- terials. We present a systematic theoretical investigation on the dehydrogenation mecha- nisms of the Mg2（BH4）2（NH2）2 compounds. We found that dehydrogenation takes place most likely via the intermolecular process, which is favorable both kinetically and thermo- dynamically in comparison with that of the intramolecular process. The dehydrogenation of Mg2（BH4）2（NH2）2 initially takes place via the direct combination of the hydridie H in BH4 and the protie H in NH2-, followed by the formation of Mg-H and subsequent ionic recombination of Mg-Hδ-…Hδ＋-N.

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been used to investigate the atomic-scale mechanisms of growth of GaAs by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE). The influence of impurities such as silicon, oxygen and carbon on the small-scale periodic structure as well as on the large-scale features has been studied. The growth front of GaAs epitaxial films grown on vicinal GaAs (100) substrates exhibits periodic structure except for the Si doped GaAs grown on semi-insulating vicinal GaAs (100) substrates. The periodicity on the surface breaks down when oxygen, silicon or carbon concentration exceeds 1018cm−3. These impurities may preferentially attach at the step edges resulting in reduction of the mobility of the steps. At higher impurity concentrations, the motion of the growth front gets pinned on the surface resulting in a disruption of the step flow mode of growth. The wide terraces on Si doped GaAs grown on semi-insulating substrate is proposed as the kinetic limited step bunching during the step flow mode of growth.

The influence of foam morphology on the release rate of Indomethacin (INM) from a solid solution prepared by hot melt extrusion was investigated. Closed cell foams were produced through a batch process, employing CO2 as physical blowing agent. In all cases foamed disks showed faster INM's release than un-foamed disks. The time required for completing INM's release was reduced up to 75% mainly due to extensive and random breakage of the sample during dissolution test.
