Sulfur-Rich Ageing Mechanism of Silicone Encapsulant Used in LED Packaging: An Experimental and Molecular Dynamic Simulation Study

In a light-emitting diode (LED) package, silicone encapsulant serves as a chip protector and enables the light to transmit, since it exhibits the advantages of high light transmittance, high refractive index, and high thermal stability. However, its reliability is still challenged under harsh operation conditions. In this study, the optical...

Forcefields based molecular modeling on the mechanical and physical properties of emeraldine base polyaniline

Molecular dynamics (MD) and molecular mechanical (MM) analysis are carried out to provide reliable and accurate model for emeraldine base polyaniline. This study validate the forcefields and model with the physical and mechanical properties of the polyaniline. The temperature effects on non-bond energy, potential energy and solubility parameter...
