Surface science studies of metal hexaborides.
Over 30 years of surface science research on metal hexaborides are reviewed. Of this class of compounds, lanthanum hexaboride has been the subject of the majority of the studies because of its outstanding properties as a thermionic emitter. The use of LaB6 cathodes as an electron source stems from the unusually low work function of ∼2.5 eV for the (100) surface combined with a low evaporation r...
متن کاملInduced charge-density oscillations at metal surfaces
Induced charge-density (ICD) oscillations at the Cu(111) surface caused by an external impurity are studied within linear response theory. The calculation takes into account such properties of the Cu(111) surface electronic structure as an energy gap for three-dimensional (3D) bulk electrons and a s − pz surface state that forms two-dimensional (2D) electron system. It is demonstrated that the ...
متن کاملTopological Analysis of Theoretical Charge Density of Alkali Metal Cations (LC, Na+, le)ICrown Ether (18e6) Complexes
The DO1(18c6)fi (MwLi. Na. K and I 8c6=18-crown-6) complexes have been chosen as the model systems toinvestigate the nature of chemical bonds between alkali metal cations and large mffitidentaie orgmnic ligands.The B3LYP/6-3I+G(d,p) level of calculation has been used for obtaining equilibrium geernetnes and p(r)functions (electron density distributions). By the aid of fundamental physical theor...
متن کاملCharge-density analysis of an iron-sulfur protein at an ultra-high resolution of 0.48 Å.
The fine structures of proteins, such as the positions of hydrogen atoms, distributions of valence electrons and orientations of bound waters, are critical factors for determining the dynamic and chemical properties of proteins. Such information cannot be obtained by conventional protein X-ray analyses at 3.0-1.5 Å resolution, in which amino acids are fitted into atomically unresolved electron-...
متن کاملCharge density of divalent metal cations determines RNA stability.
RNA molecules are exquisitely sensitive to the properties of counterions. The folding equilibrium of the Tetrahymena ribozyme is measured by nondenaturing gel electrophoresis in the presence of divalent group IIA metal cations. The stability of the folded ribozyme increases with the charge density (zeta) of the cation. Similar scaling is found when the free energy of the RNA folded in small and...
