Ground-state shapes and structures of colloidal domains
In charged colloidal suspensions, the competition between square-well attraction and long-range Yukawa repulsion leads to various stable domains and Wigner supercrystals. Using a continuum model and symmetry arguments, a phase diagram of spheres, cylinders, and lamellae is obtained as a function of two control parameters, the volume fraction and the ratio between the surface tension and repulsi...
متن کاملDimeric and dipolar ground state orders in colloidal molecular crystals.
A two-dimensional colloidal suspension subject to a periodic substrate evolves into a colloidal molecular crystal under situations of strong confinement. We focus on the long-range orientational order thereby emerging, in the ground state. We study by simulations the situations where in each trap lies a pair of identical colloids, or alternatively a pair of oppositely charged macroions. We cons...
متن کاملGround-state structures of atomic metallic hydrogen.
Ab initio random structure searching using density functional theory is used to determine the ground-state structures of atomic metallic hydrogen from 500 GPa to 5 TPa. Including proton zero-point motion within the harmonic approximation, we estimate that molecular hydrogen dissociates into a monatomic body-centered tetragonal structure near 500 GPa (r(s)=1.23) that remains stable to 1 TPa (r(s...
متن کاملRelation Between RNA Sequences, Structures, and Shapes via Variation Networks
Background: RNA plays key role in many aspects of biological processes and its tertiary structure is critical for its biological function. RNA secondary structure represents various significant portions of RNA tertiary structure. Since the biological function of RNA is concluded indirectly from its primary structure, it would be important to analyze the relations between the RNA sequences and t...
متن کاملGround state structures and photoelectron spectroscopy of [Com(coronene)]- complexes.
A synergistic approach involving theory and experiment has been used to study the structure and properties of neutral and negatively charged cobalt-coronene [Com(coronene)] complexes. The calculations are based on density functional theory with generalized gradient approximation for exchange and correlation potential, while the experiments are carried out using photoelectron spectroscopy of mas...
