Close-packed dimers on nonorientable surfaces
Abstract The problem of enumerating dimers on an M×N net embedded on non-orientable surfaces is considered. We solve both the Möbius strip and Klein bottle problems for all M and N with the aid of imaginary dimer weights. The use of imaginary weights simplifies the analysis, and as a result we obtain new compact solutions in the form of double products. The compact expressions also permit us to...
متن کاملElectronic structure of fcc and bcc close-packed silver surfaces.
We report results of total energy and electronic structure calculations of fcc and bcc silver bulk and surfaces. We find that under normal conditions (positive pressure) bcc silver is not stable. However, if silver is grown with a volume per atom & 10% larger than that of the well-known fcc silver, the total energy of the bcc structure becomes below that of fcc silver. For bcc (110) a surface s...
متن کاملRoughening of Ion-eroded Surfaces
Recent experimental studies focusing on the morphological properties of surfaces eroded by ion-bombardment report the observation of self-affine fractal surfaces, while others provide evidence about the development of a periodic ripple structure. To explain these discrepancies we derive a stochastic growth equation that describes the evolution of surfaces eroded by ion bombardment. The coeffici...
متن کاملNew Tetrahedrally Close-Packed Structures
We consider mathematical models of foams and froths, as collections of surfaces which minimize area under volume constraints. Combinatorially, because of Plateau’s rules, a foam is dual to some triangulation of space. We examine the class of foams known as tetrahedrally close-packed (TCP) structures, which includes the one used by Weaire and Phelan in their counterexample to the Kelvin conjectu...
متن کاملStructure and energetics of hydrogen-bonded networks of methanol on close packed transition metal surfaces.
Methanol is a versatile chemical feedstock, fuel source, and energy storage material. Many reactions involving methanol are catalyzed by transition metal surfaces, on which hydrogen-bonded methanol overlayers form. As with water, the structure of these overlayers is expected to depend on a delicate balance of hydrogen bonding and adsorbate-substrate bonding. In contrast to water, however, relat...
