The fabricator uses MBE (Molecular Beam Epitaxy) technology to produce parts and materials. MBE is extremely simple in concept: a beam of charged atoms is sprayed onto a substrate, not unlike painting a car. Successive layers of atoms are beamed on until the desired thickness is built up. Th...
I knew what I was looking for because the name of the product is “Raiden: Radio Wave Control clock” so it must be using a radio signal of some sort. When I opened it up, the radio antenna was immediately obvious and freakishly huge. In the picture below it’s in the lower left h...
But in reality there are atoms and the void. That is, the objects of sense are supposed to be real and it is customary to regard them as such, but in truth they are not. Only the atoms and the void are real. — Democritus of Abdera ...

crash into the nucleus, but instead find themselves in any combination of these orbital eigenstates. These orbitals' physical structure describe effects from how atoms bond to form compounds, magnetism, the size of atoms, the structure of crystals, to the structure of matter that we see around ...
In addition, the corresponding 3d-orbital populations of Co are also quantified based on the relationship between the multipole population parameters and d-orbital occupancies of transition-metal atoms. Along with theoretical calculations, we found that the extraction of Li ions from the LiCoO2 ...
An ideal crystal is thought of as an infinite repetition of an elementary unit cell in three dimensions, described by the crystal lattice. The real structure of even a good-quality crystal is far from this ideal picture; the periodicity is perturbed by thermal motion of atoms, static disorder...
In our case, the shift of the Fermi level to higher energies for the Co(d 9) and Ni(d 10) carbides 2 and 3 relative to the Fe(d 8) analogue 1 is reflected in the charge density picture by a significant change in the polarization pattern displayed by the valence shell charge ...
One of the curious features of the laws of physics is that many of them seem to be the result of the bulk behavior of many much smaller components. The atoms and molecules in a gas, for example, move at a huge range of velocities. When constrained in... ...
In this circumstance, the molecule contains a large number of atoms and a large number of active vibrational modes. An example would be C16F26, whose critical point temperature is 701 K (Cramer, 1991). For these molecules, the critical temperature generally ranges from ≈530–700 K. Two ...
