In this work we report on the pressure dependence of the refractive index of indium selenide (InSe) for polarization perpendicular to the c -axis ( E ⊥ c ). The refractive index dispersion n ⊥ (ω) of InSe has been measured between 0.77 and 1.5 eV for hydrostatic pressures up to 8 GPa and interpreted through a single o…

Upon increasing the temperature, a lyotropic mixture consisting of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), butanol, toluene, and brine solution, with oil and water in equal volumes (midrange mixture), has been shown to order spontaneously into two kinds of cubic crystalline arrays exhibiting Fd 3 m and Pm 3 n symmetries. Cubic…

The structural and electronic properties of liquid As 2 Se 3 mixtures are studied by ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. We detail the temperature dependence of the atomic structure by calculating the correlation functions in a real space as well as in a reciprocal space. It is found that the network structure c…

First-principles molecular dynamics simulations of liquid tellurium at 1123 K and at continuously varied densities are presented. The question of why recent studies within density functional theory overestimated the number of nearest neighbours is analysed in terms of structure factors and contributions of different n…

Water addition to molecular single, double and triple M-O-M bridges (M = Sc, Ti, V, Cr, and Mn) were considered, and the stabilities toward stepwise hydrolysis of the oxygen bridges were studied by means of quantum chemistry. The M-O bond distances for the studied systems were compared to experiment for demonstration…

EXAFS, conductivity and Hall coefficient measurements have been carried out for liquid As-Te mixtures. EXAFS analysis reveals the presence of chemical disorder marked by the existence of homopolar As-As and Te-Te pairs. At high temperature around 500 °C the network structure composed of threefold coordinated As atoms…

The results of ab initio calculations on a series of [MH] n polyhedral cages (M = C, Si, Ge, and Sn; n = 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, and 24) are presented. The energies are partitioned into contributions from each ring to obtain an estimate of how strain changes as a function of ring size for each of these elements. Resu…
