17.2). In an effort to reach a stable state, the unstable atoms in these radioactive particles radiate energy. Some particles radiate energy for millions of years with slow radiation, while some do so in a very short time but with intense radiation. Because of the longevity of the nuclear ...
The invention relates to a method for the temporally stable marking of individual atoms or atom groups of a solid surface by a variable structural or electronic configuration as well as utilisation of this method for storing information.doi:EP0457168 A2FUCHS HARALD DR....
In order to better describe intermolecular interactions, we augmented the basis set with d orbitals on H atoms taken from ref. 44. To make the basis set apt for high-pressure calculations, the exponents of the radial part of the outermost functions of Scientific Reports | 6:32486 | DOI: ...
However, their effectiveness is hindered by low efficiency and unstable cyclic performance. Here we introduce an amine-support system designed to achieve efficient and stable CO2 capture. Through atom-level design, each polyethyleneimine (PEI) molecule is precisely impregnated into the cage-like pore ...
In principle, the reaction of IaH with a given A could proceed by an initial ET,(Equation 3)N-DMBI-H + A → N-DMBI-H⋅+ + A⋅−followed by further reaction of IaH⋅+ (clearly unstable from the irreversible cyclic voltammogram of IaH29) to form Ia+. E0/⋅−(A) values ...
XPS measurements were carried out to characterize the surface composition of the materials. The binding energy (BE) values were also measured to verify the oxidation states of the atoms as well as their chemical and physical environments. All of the samples show binding energies (BE) corresponding...
It was found that the adsorption of atomic hydrogen at N sites is even more unstable than adsorption at B sites in hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). Further, the adsorption on boron atoms causes a local sp2 to sp3 transformation, whereas adsorption on nitrogen atoms does not occur [45]. ...
Is there a way to determine if two atoms will form ions or a covalent bond when they react?An atom is in its most stable state when A) the number of electrons equals the number of protons. B) the number of neutrons equals the nu...
Of course by the same process it is also possible that if you run toward a wall the atoms in your body will quantum tunnel through the wall and you'll find yourself on the other side. The chances of that actually happening is negligible at best. Of course if the universe were too ...
Single-metal-atom chains (SMACs), as the smallest one-dimensional structure, have intriguing physical and chemical properties. Although several SMACs have been realized so far, their controllable fabrication remains challenging due to the need to arrange single atoms in an atomically precise manner....
