X-Ray diffraction and resonance shear measurement of nano-confined ionic liquids
Bibliographic record
Abstract
X-ray diffraction measurement at the SPring-8 synchrotron was employed to investigate the structures of two types of imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ([C4mim][NTF2]) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([C4mim][BF4]), confined between silica surfaces by varying the surface separation distances of ca. 500 nm (bulk liquid), ca. 10 nm, and ca. 2 nm (hard wall thickness). The obtained diffraction profiles and intensities were discussed by considering the structures and properties of the nano-confined ILs between the silica surfaces investigated by resonance shear measurement (RSM) and molecular dynamics simulation (MD) in our previous reports. [C4mim][NTf2] showed two diffraction peaks at q = 8.8 nm-1 (spacing d = 0.71 nm) and at q = 14.0 nm-1 (spacing d = 0.45 nm) at the greatest distance (D = ca. 500 nm), which were assigned to the interval between the same ions (anion-anion or cation-cation) within the polar network of [C4mim][NTf2] and the interval between the neighboring anion-cation, respectively. The positions of these two peaks remained the same at D = ca. 10 nm and at the hard wall (D = ca. 2 nm) and their intensity factor increased, indicating that both the cation and anion existed in the same layer. This result was consistent with the checkerboard structure of [C4mim][NTf2] on the silica surface computer simulated in our previous studies. On the other hand, [C4mim][BF4] showed a peak at q = 15.4 nm-1 (spacing d = 0.41 nm) corresponding to the anion-cation interval at the greatest distance (D = ca. 500 nm). This peak became broader and weaker at D = ca. 12 nm and at D = ca. 2 nm.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
