First-principles calculations of equilibrium silicon isotope fractionation among mantle minerals
Silicon isotope fractionation factors for mantle silicate minerals, including olivine, wadsleyite, ringwoodite, pyroxenes, garnet (pyrope), majorite, and Mg-perovskite, are calculated using density functional theory. Our results show that equilibrium fractionations of Si isotopes are negligible among pyroxenes, olivine, and pyrope, but are significant between olivine and its polymorphs (wadsley...
متن کاملConcentration effect on equilibrium fractionation of Mg-Ca isotopes in carbonate minerals: Insights from first-principles calculations
Naturally occurring carbonates have a wide variation in Mg and Ca contents. Using the density-functional-theory calculations, this study examines the effect of Mg and Ca concentrations on bond lengths and equilibrium fractionation factors of Mg-Ca isotopes among calcite-type carbonate minerals (MgxCa1 xCO3). Mg content x and Ca content (1 x) of the investigated carbonate minerals range from 1/1...
متن کاملAqueous Stability of Alkali Superionic Conductors from First-Principles Calculations
Ceramic alkali superionic conductor solid electrolytes (SICEs) play a prominent role in the development of rechargeable alkali-ion batteries, ranging from replacement of organic electrolytes to being used as separators in aqueous batteries. The aqueous stability of SICEs is an important property in determining their applicability in various roles. In this work, we analyze the aqueous stability ...
متن کاملPossible isotopic fractionation effects in material sputtered from minerals
We discuss in detail a model which makes definite predictions for the fractionation of isotopes in sputtered material. The fractionation patterns can be nonlinear, and the pattern for a particular set of isotopes depends on the chemical matrix within which those isotopes are contained. Calculations are presented for all nonmonoisotopic elements contained in the minerals perovskite, anorthite, a...
متن کاملThe building blocks of metallothioneins: heterometallic Zn(2+) and Cd(2+) clusters from first-principles calculations.
Electronic structures of Zn(2+) and Cd(2+) thiolate clusters found in metallothioneins (MT) have been obtained using density functional theory. We have found that the inherent asymmetry of cluster architectures gives rise to seven distinct metal sites. Whereas the non-strained bond lengths of such tetrathiolate complexes are found to be 2.60 Å and 2.39 Å for Cd-S and Zn-S, in the MT clusters fo...
