hyperdiamonds are covalently bonded fullerenes in crystalline forms, more or less related todiamond, and having a significant amount of sp3 carbon atoms. design of severalhypothetical crystal networks was performed by using our original software programscvnet and nano-studio. the topology of the networks is described in terms of the netparameters and several counting polynomials, calculated by ...

the present study investigates the crystal preferred orientation (cpo) of quartz crystals in psammitic rocks to ascertain the deformationmechanism using electron backscatter diffraction (ebsd) on quartz crystals from north of the renvyle-bofin slide (rbs) nearletterfrack in western ireland. complete crystallographic orientations were determined for several thousand individual quartz crystalsin ...

the zinc(ii) complex [zn2(dmdtc)2(μ-dmdtc)2] has been synthesized directly from thiram ligand, containing a disulfide bond {dmdtc = n,n-dimethyldithiocarbamate; thiram = n,n-tetramethylthiuram disulfide}, and characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods. surprisingly thiram, undergoes a reductive disulfide bond scission upon reaction with zn2+ in methanolic media to give the [z...

an octahedral cobalt(iii) complex, trans-[(me2bpb)co(bzlan)2]clo4 (1), with h2me2bpb = n,n’-(4,5-dimethyl-1,2-phenylene)dipicolinamide and bzlan = benzylamine, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, ir, uv-vis, and 1h nmr spectroscopy. the structure of this complex has been determined by x-ray crystallography. the me2bpb2– is a di-anionic tetradentate ligand furnishing a ...

in the present paper, resonant frequencies and modes of a three-atom photonic molecule and a photonic crystal placed within a cavity are numerically calculated. first, governing formulation in transverse electric field mode (te) is obtained using maxwell equations. then, an algorithm based on a finite difference scheme and matrix algebra is presented. the algorithm is then implemented in a comp...

in this paper, a photonic crystal waveguide with point defects and lattice constant perturbations of +5%, -5% are being investigated. firstly waveguide structures with constant and specific parameters are being studied and photonic band gap diagrams for te/tm modes are depicted; then pulse propagation in the frequencies available in the band gap are shown. after that, effects of parameters like...

waveguides with low confinement loss, low chromatic dispersion, and low nonlinear effects are used in optical communication systems. optical fibers can also be employed in such systems. besides optical fibers, photonic crystal fibers are also highly suitable transmission media for optical communication systems. in this paper, we introduce two new designs of index-guiding photonic crystal fiber ...

a novel complex of cadmium (ii) [cdl0.5(no3)(h2o)](1), l= n,n-bis (o-hydroxyacetophenone) ethylene diamine, have been synthesized as single crystal and nano size. compound 1 in nano size was obtained under sonochemical irradiation and has been characterized by ir, 1hnmr spectroscopy, x-ray powder diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). the gray single crystal of compound 1 has...
