ABSTRACTComplex defects in Si and SiC such as coincidence tilt boundaries, planar defects and self-interstitial clusters were dealt with by using the transferable tight-binding method for Si and the self-consistent tight-binding method for SiC. These results have been compared with ab initio calculations of similar configurations. Essential features of the tight-binding results have been supported by the ab initio results. Especially, the agreement on stable atomic configurations is good, although there exits a tendency that energy increases are somewhat overestimated by the tight-binding methods. Serious faults have been found for the electronic structure by the tight-binding method for SiC.

In this study, self-cleaning polyester (PET) fabrics were prepared using TiOF2 and hexadecyltrimethoxysilane(HDS) treatment. TiOF2 was synthesized via direct fluorination of a precursor TiO2 at various reaction temperatures. The prepared PET fabrics had superior photocatalytic self-cleaning properties compared with anatase TiO2/HDS-treated PET fabrics under UV and sunlight with 98% decomposition of methylene blue. TiOF2/HDS-treated PET fabrics also had superior superhydrophobic self-cleaning properties compared with anatase TiO2/HDS-treated PET fabrics with a 161° water contact angle and 6° roll-off angle. After the self-cleaning tests of the non-dyed TiOF2/HDS-treated PET fabrics, we prepared dyed TiOF2/HDS-treated PET fabrics to test practical aspects of the treatment method. These PET fabrics were barely stained by tomato ketchup; even when stained, they could be self-cleaned within 4 h. These results suggest that practical self-cleaning PET fabrics with superhydrophobicity and photocatalytic degradation could be prepared using TiOF2/HDS-treatment.
