Change of Ground State Configuration Induced by the Stark Shift of Surface States in Some bcc(001) Surfaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using density functional calculations, we found that the ground state configuration of some bcc(001) surfaces are field dependent because different configurations experience different Stark shifts of surface states. When the W(001) surface is positively biased, an external electric field stabilizes a cs2 3 2d array of surface vacancies, so that the ground state is no longer the well-established “Debe-King” model. Similar behavior is found for Mo(001), but not for Nb(001). The field-induced change of ground state provides a natural explanation for the anomalous behavior of W(001) inside field ion microscopes.

Microscopic Parameters in the Excited State of Toluene and Some of Its Haloderavatives
The Ultraviolet-visible (UV) spectra of toluene, ortho-bromo and para-bromo toluene in different solvents have been studied. The electric dipole moments and polarizabilities in the molecular excited electronic states were determined. It was found that the electric dipole moments for the excited states (µ*) and the ground states (µ) of these compounds are equal, and the change in dipole moment i...
متن کاملPhase transition of the dry friction between crystalline surfaces induced by normal load
A major source of energy dissipation and surface wear is the kinetic friction at the interfaces of sliding bodies. Traditionally, on a macroscopic scale, this undesirable effect is reduced with lubricating the surfaces by introducing oil into their interface. An interesting phenomenon, called superlubricity, has been reported on a nanometer scale where dry (without lubricant oil) fruition and w...
متن کاملExistence of ground states for approximately inner two--parameter $C_0$--groups on $C^*$--algebras
In this paper, we generalize the definitions of approximately inner $C_0$-groups and their ground states to the two- parameter case and study necessary and sufficient conditions for a state to be ground state. Also we prove that any approximately inner two- parameter $C_0$--group must have at least one ground state. Finally some applications are given.
متن کاملAb initio study of antiferroelectric PbZrO3 (001) surfaces
We have carried out first-principles totalenergy calculations of bulk and (001) surfaces of PbZrO3. The ground state for bulk PbZrO3 is determined to be the antiferroelectric orthorhombic phase, with the ferroelectric rhombohedral and paraelectric cubic phases being 0.14 and 0.39 eV per formula unit higher in energy, respectively. PbOand ZrO2-terminated (001) surfaces, either clean or when hydr...
متن کاملSolvation Dynamics in Water: 2. Energy Fluxes on Excited- and Ground-State Surfaces.
This series' first installment introduced an approach to solvation dynamics focused on expressing the emission frequency shift (following electronic excitation of, and resulting charge change or redistribution in, a solute) in terms of energy fluxes, a work and power perspective. This approach, which had been previously exploited for rotational and vibrational excitation-induced energy flow, ha...
