Abstract:
<p class="1Body">Absolute and relative atomic mass values are obtained in kg/atom, MeV, C, and u for the chemical elements. The results show that: (i) Absolute atomic mass value is, of course, given by the classical mass formula m = hϑ/c<sup>2</sup>; however, rotational speed per radius ω/r correlates with strain τ on the element’s intrinsic electromagnetic (e-m) transverse radiation to give the coefficient k whose value turns out to be atomic mass unit energy equivalent amu/eV = k = τ/(ω/r)<sup>½</sup>. (ii) Each component of the wave-particle doublet plays unique roles in atomic mass phenomenology; these roles readily account for H atom’s seeming fundamentality and preponderance of internal structures in virtually all particulate matter down to the electron. (iii) The mass constants amu/eV and amu/C are linear correlation coefficients of different dimensions of atomic units; the values are thus not specific to particular elements but obtainable from any element including the electron. (iv) The empirical expression e- = F/N<sub>A</sub> is incorrect; theoretically, charge q = m<sub>r</sub>F = m<sub>abs</sub>N<sub>A</sub>F. The error translates to values of N<sub>A</sub>, m<sub>e</sub>, and e/m<sub>e</sub> that are twenty orders of magnitude lower than theoretical values, e.g., e<sup>-</sup><sub>theor.</sub> = 47.062 C c.f. e<sup>-</sup><sub>lit.</sub> = 1.6022 x 10<sup>-19</sup> C. It is posited that the charge determinants ω and τ, might be suppressed or virtually nullified in an external e-m environment above some threshold voltage. (v) The error reflects also in all empirical E/c<sup>2</sup> values. A comparison of empirical and theoretical quantitative expressions for evaluating gravitational (gm) from electrostatic (E/c<sup>2</sup>) atomic mass shows that the former redeems the inherent error to retrieve proximate gm from E/c<sup>2</sup> value. (vi) Given the current literature E/c<sup>2</sup> values, the electron waveform mass does converge with the photon’s value, i.e., m<sub>w(e) </sub>≅ m<sub>photon</sub>. It is submitted, therefore, that particle physics has already struck matter’s fundamental unit in the photon mass, maybe unknowingly for lack of litmus test.</p>

Abstract:
General tilt grain boundaries can be viewed in terms of small structural units of varying complexity. High-resolution electron microscope (HREM) images of these boundaries in many materials show this repetitive similarity of the atomic structure at the boundary plane. The structure of particular grain boundaries has been examined for several special cases and commonly observed configurations include symmetric tilt grain boundaries and asymmetric tilt grain boundaries with one grain having a prominent, low-index facet. Several different configurations of the boundary structure may possibly occur, even in the same grain boundary. There are thus many possible ways to assemble the basic structural units to form a grain boundary. These structural units and their distribution have traditionally been examined by high-resolution electron microscopy. The images of the projection of the atomic columns (or the tunnels between atomic columns) providing a template for constructing “ball-and-stick ” models of the interface.

Abstract:
Sutton et al and Brokman et al suggested that long period asymmetrical boundary may facet on an atomic scale into short period symmetrical boundaries. This principle was first confirmed in the case of Σ=3 NiSi2(11)1/(15)2 and NiSi2(001)1/(21)2 asymmetrical boundaries in NiSi2 thin film by Chen et al using high resolution TEM. The asymmetrical boundaries contain a mixture of structural units of the (1)1/(11)2 and the (12)1/(12)2 symmetrical boundaries. The structural units of the (1)1/(11)2 is a 6-atom ring, while (12)1/(12)2 boundary has composite 5 and 7-atom rings. This result is consistent with the chain unit model (CUM) proposed by Wang and Vitek which describes the variation of the boundary structure with the inclination of the boundary plane.The principle of CUM was shown to be valid in the Σ=3 NiSi2(11)/(15)Si and NiSi2(21)/(001)Si asymmetrical interfaces. There are four possible atomic faceting structures for an asymmetrical interface. Fig. 1(a) shows the coexistence of two atomic faceting interfacial domains in a NiSi2(11)/(15)Si interface.

Abstract:
A new scenario to realize negative refraction with a photonic-resonant vapor material that can exhibit both electric and magnetic responses via multilevel quantum coherence is suggested. Compared with the previous method of artificial composite metamaterial, where the mechanism was considered by means of classical electromagnetic theory and the materials produced have anisotropic millimetre-scale composite structures, the present scheme suggested within the framework of quantum optics can be used to design and fabricate isotropic negatively-refracting materials with atomic-scale microscopic structure units. Such an advantage may lead to a potentially important application in the techniques of superlens and perfect imaging.

Abstract:
Atomic masses (weights?) is an essential information for mining and metallurgy. The paper discusses four subjects around this problem. First, the classification of all the elements is suggested into 4 classes, based on their isotope features, determining the accuracy of their known atomic masses. As part of that, the class of elements is discussed with uncertain atomic weights in accordance with the 2009 IUPAC recommendations. A better (easier to use) format of atomic weights is presented for this class of elements. Third, it is found not informative to leave empty spaces instead of approximate atomic weights for elements with unstable isotopes. Fourth, the term atomic weight vs the term atomic mass is discussed shortly, in agreement with the SI system of units and in contrary to the questionable IUPAC convection.

Abstract:
In the present study, grain boundary energy and atomic structure of <110> symmetric tilt boundaries in copper were evaluated by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. From the simulations, the grain boundary energy of <110> symmetric tilt boundaries depended on misorientation angle and there were large energy cusps at the misorientation angles which corresponded to (111) S 3 and (113) S 11 symmetric tilt boundaries. It was found that the atomic structure of each <110> symmetric tilt boundary was described by the combination of three kinds of structural units which consisted of (331) S 19, (111) S 3 and (113) S 11 symmetric tilt boundaries and two single crystal units which consisted of (110) S 1and (001) S 1 single crystals. From the the analysis of the excess free volume in each grain boundary, it was found that the energy of structural units depended on the excess free volume of the units and that the misorientation dependence of grain boundary energy agreed with that of the free volume in grain boundaries.

Full text
Abstract:
Dynamic selection and dynamic binding and rebinding at runtime are new characters of composite services. The traditional static reliability prediction models are unsuitable to dynamic composite services. A new reliability predicting algorithm for composite services is proposed in this paper. Firstly, a composite service is decomposed into composition unites (executing path, composite module and atomic service) according to their constituents. Consequently, a hierarchical graph of all composite units is constructed. Lastly, a new dynamic reliability prediction algorithm is presented. Comparing with the traditional reliability model, the new dynamic reliability approach is more flexible, which does not recompute reliability for all composite units and only computes the reliability of the effected composite units. In addition, an example to show how to measure the reliability based on our algorithm is designed. The experimental results show our proposed methods can give an accurate estimation of reliability. Furthermore, a more flexible sensitivity analysis is performed to determine which service component has the most significant impact on the improvement of composite service reliability.

Abstract:
The structure of a decagonal quasicrystal in the Zn58Mg40Y2 (at.%) alloy was studied using electron diffraction and atomic resolution Z-contrast imaging techniques. This stable Frank–Kasper Zn–Mg–Y decagonal quasicrystal has an atomic structure which can be modeled with a rhombic/hexagonal tiling decorated with icosahedral units at each vertex. No perfect decagonal clusters were observed in the Zn–Mg–Y decagonal quasicrystal, which differs from the Zn–Mg–Dy decagonal crystal with the same space group P10/mmm. Y atoms occupy the center of `dented decagon' motifs consisting of three fat rhombic and two flattened hexagonal tiles. About 75% of fat rhombic tiles are arranged in groups of five forming star motifs, while the others connect with each other in a `zigzag' configuration. This decagonal quasicrystal has a composition of Zn68.3Mg29.1Y2.6 (at.%) with a valence electron concentration (e/a) of about 2.03, which is in accord with the Hume–Rothery criterion for the formation of the Zn-based quasicrystal phase (e/a = 2.0–2.15).

Abstract:
Robustly coherent spin centers that can be integrated into devices are a key ingredient of quantum technologies. Vacancies in semiconductors are excellent candidates, and theory predicts that defects in conjugated carbon materials should also display long coherence times. However, the quantum performance of carbon nanostructures has remained stunted by an inability to alter the sp2-carbon lattice with atomic precision. Here, we demonstrate that topological tailoring leads to superior quantum performance in molecular graphene nanostructures. We unravel the decoherence mechanisms, quantify nuclear and environmental effects, and observe spin-coherence times that outclass most nanomaterials. These results validate long-standing assumptions on the coherent behavior of topological defects in graphene and open up the possibility of introducing controlled quantum-coherent centers in the upcoming generation of carbon-based optoelectronic, electronic, and bioactive systems.

These granules are organo-mineral composites. A comparison of the size and shape of the granules in different taxa (Mollusca, Brachiopoda) suggests a possible relationship with taxonomy and/or phylogeny.

Full text
Abstract:
The mole is the most recent addition to the set of base units that form the International System of Units, although its pre-cursor the ‘gram-molecule’, had been in use by both physicists and chemists for more than 120 years. A proposal has been published recently to establish a new definition for the mole based on a fixed value for the Avogadro constant. This would introduce consistent relative uncertainties for the molar and the atomic masses while making no change to the system of relative atomic masses (‘atomic weights’). Although the proposal would have little impact on the measurement uncertainty of practical work, it has stimulated considerable debate about the mole and the nature of the quantity amount of substance. In this paper, the rationale for the new definition is explained against the background of changes in the way the quantity amount of substance has been used, from its first use during the early development of thermodynamics through to the use of the ‘number of gram-molecules’ at the end of the nineteenth century.

The classical molecular dynamics (MD) technique was used to investigate the atomistic structure of amorphous hafnium oxide (HfO2) under pressure. The local atomic structure and the liquid-solid transition of HfO2 were analyzed for the pair radical distribution functions, bond angle distributions and coordination number. The simulation reveals that although the fractions of structural units HfO[Formula: see text] and OHf[Formula: see text] strongly change with the density, the partial bond angle distributions of these structural units are almost identical for all constructed models. This result has enabled us to establish a relationship between the bond angle distributions and the fractions of structural units.

Abstract:
Glasses with composition of GexSb40-xSe60 (x= 40, 35, 32, 27, 20, 15 at. %) have been synthesized. Neutron and X-ray diffraction techniques were used to study the atomic glassy structure, and Reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) simulations were applied to model the 3-dimensional atomic configurations and thorough mapping of the atomic parameters, such as first and second neighbour distances, coordination numbers, and bond-angle distributions. The results are explained with formation of GeSe4 and SbSe3 structural units, which correlate with the Ge/Sb ratio. For all the studied compositions, the Ge-Se, Sb-Se, Ge-Ge, and Se-Se bonds are significant. RMC simulations reveal the presence of Ge-Sb and Sb-Sb bonds, being dependent on Ge/Sb ratio. All atomic compositions satisfy formal valence requirements, i.e., Ge is fourfold coordinated, Sb is threefold coordinated, and Se is twofold coordinated. By increasing the Sb content, both the Se-Ge-Se bonds angle of 107±3° and Se-Sb-Se bonds angle of 118±3° decrease, respectively, indicating distortion of the structural units. Far infrared Fourier Transform spectroscopic measurements conducted in the range of 50-450 cm-1 at oblique (75°) incidence radiation have revealed clear dependences of the IR band’s shift and intensity on the glassy composition, showing features around x=27 at.% supporting the topological phase transition to a stable rigid network consisting mainly of SbSe3 pyramidal and GeSe4 tetrahedral clusters. These results are in agreement with the Reverse Monte Carlo models, which define the Ge and Sb environment.

Abstract:
The computer simulation methods have been applied to calculate structure and energy of symmetric tilt grain boundaries (GB) with the misorientation axes [110] and [111]. The calculations have been carried out with the use of the structural-vacancy model. The study of the atomic structure has been carried out within the entire range of misorientation angles. The reverse density of coincidence sites in special grain boundaries has amounted Σ≤57. The calculations have been carried out with the use of the Morse pair potential and the Cleri-Rosato many-body potential. When calculated with different potentials, the dependence of GB energy on the misorientation angle has a similar form, and the atomic structure completely coincides. It has been shown that the structure of any GB with the misorientation axes [110] and [111] may be represented by a limited number of basic structural units. All found basic structural units defined as units of A, B, C and D types are based on the structures of special grain boundaries. Such special GBs shall be Σ3(111), Σ3(112), Σ11(113) and Σ9(114) for GBs with the misorientation axis [110], and as regarding GBs with the misorientation axis [111], such special GBs shall be Σ3(112), Σ7(123) and Σ13(134). Ranges of angles within which certain basic structural units are found have been defined.

Abstract:
Nanotechnology is vital to the fabrication of integrated circuits, memory devices, display units, biochips and biosensors. Scanning probe microscope (SPM) has emerged to be a unique tool for materials structuring and patterning with atomic and molecular resolution. SPM includes scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). In this chapter, we selectively discuss the atomic and molecular manipulation capabilities of STM nanolithography. As for AFM nanolithography, we focus on those nanopatterning techniques involving water and/or air when operated in ambient. The typical methods, mechanisms and applications of selected SPM nanolithographic techniques in nanoscale structuring and fabrication are reviewed.

Abstract:
Abstract In a crystalline material, structural defects such as dislocations or twins are well defined and largely determine the mechanical and other properties of the material. For metallic glass (MG) with unique properties in the absence of a long-range lattice, intensive efforts have focused on the search for similar ‘defects’. The primary objective has been the elucidation of the flow mechanism of MGs. However, their atomistic mechanism of mechanical deformation and atomic flow response to stress, temperature, and failure, have proven to be challenging. In this paper, we briefly review the state-of-the-art studies on the dynamic defects in metallic glasses from the perspective of flow units. The characteristics, activation and evolution processes of flow units as well as their correlation with mechanical properties, including plasticity, strength, fracture, and dynamic relaxation, are introduced. We show that flow units that are similar to structural defects such as dislocations are crucial in the optimization and design of metallic glassy materials via the thermal, mechanical and high-pressure tailoring of these units. In this report, the relevant issues and open questions with regard to the flow unit model are also introduced and discussed.

Abstract:
AbstractSynchrotron-based XANES characterization of sulphated sulphur combined with atomic force microscopy and transmission electron microscopy (imaging and diffraction) allow insights into the crystallization of the calcareous units produced by invertebrates. As a result of a series of converging data, reticulate crystallization of the amorphous Ca-carbonate molecules conveyed to the micron-thick growth layer by the sumicrometric organo-mineral units seems a reasonable hypothesis, providing us with a method of explaining the multiple and taxonomy-linked ‘vital effects’ which have long been recognized among the calcareous biocrystals.

Abstract:
Recent advances in the continuing study of [2+2] photodimerization reactions in supramolecular, non-covalent systems are presented. The covalent photocapture of small dynamic assemblies which are formed using weak hydrogen-bonding interactions between two different complementary units, barbiturates and melamines, is discussed. One unit serves as a photo-inert supramolecular template capable of bringing two photoactive units together using multiple hydrogen-bonds. The second type of unit unites the corresponding, complementary hydrogen-bonding motif with a photoactive unit. Irradiation of the supramolecular assemblies leads to photodimerization of adjacent units and generation of an imprinted site for the template. Moieties which are adapted to participate in photodimerization reactions are styrene, cinnamate, stilbene and fullerene units. The results are interpreted on the basis of topochemical reaction control.

Abstract:
An analysis of atomic charges is presented for simple alkanes. Basically, Mulliken's scheme is followed, except for the partitioning of CH overlap populations. This achieves a relative ordering of atomic charges which is independent of the basis sets used in abinitio calculations. The absolute magnitude of atomic charges, however, is basis set dependent. Extensive geometry and scale factor optimizations yield the following results (in 10−3 e units) for the carbon net charge in ethane: 69.4 (STO-3G), 55.1 (STO-3G + CI), 42.8 (4-31G), and 37.8 (4-31G + CI). It appears that charge analyses converge toward the empirical result, 35.1 × 10−3 e, provided they are carried out after configuration interaction involving reasonably large optimized basis sets.
