Glycine on Cu(001) is used as an example to illustrate the critical role of molecular polarity and finite temperature effect in self-assembly of biomolecules at a metal surface. A unified picture for glycine self-assembly on Cu(001) is…
The free-electron-like state observed in a scanning tunneling spectroscopy study of a chiral p(2x4) monolayer of glycinate ions on the Cu(100) surface [K. Kanazawa et al, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 129, 740 (2007)] is shown from density functional…
The electronic structure of graphene on Cu(111) and Cu(100) single crystals is investigated using low energy electron microscopy, low energy electron diffraction and angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy. On both substrates the graphene…
Microstructure properties, phase transitions, and charge ordering in the LuFe2O4 materials have been extensively investigated by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The (001) twins as a common defect frequently appear in the…
We investigate some surfaces of a paradigmatic sp bonded metal--namely, Al(110), Al(100), and Al(111)--by means of the "electron localization function" (ELF), implemented in a first-principle pseudopotential framework. ELF is a ground-state…
We present the results of self-consistent calculations of the electronic shell and supershell structure for clusters having up to 6000 valence electrons. The ionic background is described in terms of a homogeneous jellium. The calculations…
X-ray diffraction experiments were performed on polycrystalline and single-crystal specimens of Ce$_{2}$Fe$_{17}$ at temperatures between 10 K and 300 K. Below $T_{\mathrm{t}}$ = 118$\pm$2 K, additional weak superstructure reflections were…
The settling of heavy spherical particles in a column of quiescent fluid is investigated. The performed experiments cover a range of Galileo numbers ($110 \leq \text{Ga} \leq 310$) for a fixed density ratio of $\Gamma = \rho_p/\rho_f =…
A new chemical model is presented that simulates fully-coupled gas-phase, grain-surface and bulk-ice chemistry in hot cores. Glycine (NH2CH2COOH), the simplest amino acid, and related molecules such as glycinal, propionic acid and propanal,…
Effect of microstructures and interactions on segmental dynamics in polyethylene glycol (PEG) solution in water is probed with macro-scale oscillatory rheology and micro-scale diffusion of a fluorescent probe. PEG solution fluorescence…
Reflection electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) in specular and off specular geometry has been employed to study the early stage of the copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) growth on Al (100) substrate. EEL spectroscopy has been a useful tool…
Extra-terrestrial polymers of glycine with iron have been characterized by mass spectrometry to have a core mass of 1494Da with dominant rod-like variants at m/z 1567 and m/z 1639 [1]. Several principal macro-structural morphologies are…
Computer simulations yield evidence of superfluid behavior of nanoscale size clusters of parahydrogen adsorbed on a graphite substrate at low temperature ($T\lesssim 0.25 \text{ K}$). Clusters with a number of molecules between 7 and 12…
In order to investigate the orientational ordering of molecular dipoles and the associated electronic properties, we studied the adsorption of chlorogallium phthalocyanine molecules (GaClPc, Pc=C_32N_8H_16) on Cu(111) using the X-ray…
Low energy electron diffraction (LEED), scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), and photoelectron spectroscopy have been used to study an ordered structure formed by Ge atoms deposited onto the Au(111) surface. Based on a careful analysis of…
We report on total-energy electronic structure calculations in the density-functional theory performed for the ultra-thin atomic layers of Si on Ag(111) surfaces. We find several distinct stable silicene structures:…
The surface atomic and electronic structure after deposition of 1/3 monolayer (ML) Te on Cu(111) was determined using a combination of low-energy electron diffraction (LEED), scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS),…
Cerium, in which the 4$f$ valence electrons live at the brink between localized and itinerant characters, exhibits varying crystal structures and therefore anomalous physical properties with respect to temperature and pressure.…
Structural investigations by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) on KFexSe2 with 1.5 \leq x \leq 1.8 have revealed a rich variety of microstructure phenomena, the KFe1.5Se2 crystal often shows a superstructure modulation along…
Motivated by recent experiments on Al nanoparticles, we have studied the effects of fixed electron number and small size in nanoscale superconductors, by applying the canonical BCS theory for the attractive Hubbard model in two and three…
