Abstract:
The embedded atom method (EAM) has been used to compare the stability of a series of small palladium clusters with 5–60 atoms and a variety of shapes. It is found that the 13- and 55-atom icosahedra and cubo-octahedra are stable at 0 K. However, other sized icosahedra and cubo-octahedra are unstable at 0 K. Upon annealing, the icosahedra and cubo-octahedra reconstruct into nonpolyhedral structures which are highly strained. The strained structures are much more stable than the icosahedron or cubo-octahedron except when there are 13 or 55 atoms in the cluster. Further, there are many disordered

Abstract:
This paper aims to present an approach to address the atom rearrangement problem by developing Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models. These models predict the coordinates for atom movements while ensuring collision-free transitions and filling all vacancies in the target array. The process begins with designing a cost function for the assignment problem that incorporates constraints to prevent collisions and guarantee vacancy filling. We then build and train CNN models using datasets for three different grid sizes: 10×10, 13×13, and 21×21. Our models achieve high accuracy in predicting ato

Abstract Metal-atom contamination often induces the degradation of organic molecular devices. In this work, we studied the clustering feature of Au and Al impurity metal atoms in pentacene solids by first-principles calculations. We found that Au atoms prefer to produce clusters in a molecule-edge space due to the strong bonding among Au atoms, and such clusters can increase their sizes by producing molecule vacancies. On the other hand, the Al atom prefers to locate separately around the center of pentacene molecules due to the strong bonding between the Al atom and surrounding molecules, whi

This means that doped S atom can enhance CO adsorption on the Au clusters. Furthermore, through the Mulliken population analysis, we can see that charges transfer from the Au clusters to S atom, while charges donate to the Au clusters from the CO in CO/AunS sytem.

Abstract:
Abstract Hierarchically porous monoliths based on copper (Cu), cobalt (Co) and manganese (Mn) oxides with three-dimensionally (3D) interconnected macropores and open nanopores were prepared using metal bromides as precursors via a sol–gel process accompanied by phase separation. The difficulty of gelation for low-valence metal cation was overcome by introducing a highly electronegative Br atom near to the metal atom to control the rates of hydrolysis and polycondensation. The 3D interconnected macropores were obtained using appropriate polymers to induce phase separation. The domain sizes of m

Abstract:
Micro-particles have sizes ranging from 1 to 1000 μm. This research reveals the role of environmentally friendly bamboo micro-particles as biomaterials with engineered material characteristics. The study indicates that bamboo, when meshed to 300 and processed with a blender machine, results in micro-cracks on the bamboo surface. SEM morphology testing, bamboo under one year old and over one year old exhibits micro-particle shapes such as imperfect circles, elongated forms, and clumps. The micro-cracks lead to the breakage of covalent bonds in cellulose. The breakage of bonds is caused by photo

The structure of defective tubes in ground state is considered, the role of effects related to finite sizes of a model is evaluated.

Abstract:
Koshland’s four-point location model is applied to consider some enzymatic reactions of deracemization. The sequen-tial model is a theory describing the cooperativity of protein subunits. It postulates that the conformation of the protein changes with each binding of a ligand, thus sequentially changing its affinity to ligands at adjacent binding sites. When the substrate binds to the active site of one subunit of the enzyme, the remaining subunits are activated. The possibility of the alternative binding of both substrates and products of the enzymatic reaction can be assessed on the basis of

Two different sizes (34 and 38 atom) have been considered for all compositions of CoPd/MgO(001) nanoalloys. Co and Pd atoms, for all the compositions, have cube-on-cube (001) epitaxy with substrate at interface. For both sizes, we have found that Pd rich composition nanoalloys have three layers, Co rich composition nanoalloys have four layers
