At 1394 °C γ-Fe may transform back to the bcc structure, so-called δ-phase, the latter finally melting at 1538 °C. However, it has recently been demonstrated that in spite of the thermodynamic instability of the γ-Fe phase at low temperatures, it may be retained in iron nanowires ...
Therefore, it can be concluded that the substituted elements of Bi and Ga with minor concentrations are randomly distributed in these sites. Fig. 1: Atomic structure of unit cells in iron garnet films. a The atomic model of garnet in the unit cell. b The projected atomic arrangement along ...
We consider a homogeneous structure (liquid) and a perfect periodic crystal, which are constructed from the one-mode approximation of the phase field crystal model. A diagram of 2D structures is constructed from the analytic solutions of the model using atomic density functionals. The diagram ...
Atomic Structure refers to the fundamental components of matter, namely atoms, which consist of a nucleus and orbiting electrons. The nucleus, acting as the center of an atom, is positively charged and has a much greater mass than the negatively charged electrons. Atoms are electrically neutral ...
Topic 1: The changing models of atomic structureThis topic will highlight the changing models of atomic structure and how sequence of experiments, observations, analysis and conclusions led to the modern day model of atom. The content of the article will be restricted to AS/A-level students....

Atomic structure of the nanowire for various transition-metal dichalcogenides: (a) atomic structural model of the nanowire, where dashed red triangles indicate the orientation of each layer in the nanowire, and (b) experimental (left) and simulated (right) STEM Z-contrast images of individual MoSe...
atom [Gr.,=uncuttable (indivisible)], basic unit of matter; more properly, the smallest unit of a chemical element having the properties of that element. Structure of the Atom The atom consists of a central, positively charged core, the nucleus, and negatively charged particles called electrons...
Motivated by the structure evolution experiments of Janus NiAu nanoparticles (NPs), we present a detailed study on the thermodynamic evolution of Ni and Au NPs with different ratios of Au and Ni through the molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. It is found that, for fixed Ni particle size (5.8...
Unfortunately, due to the speed limit in PES evaluation, the time scale of MD simulations is generally below nano-seconds, which is far not enough for finding the most stable structure at a given composition, a global optimization problem. To this end, a number of global optimization methods ...
