Direct Methods for Surfaces

چکیده
This paper reviews recent progress in the application of Direct Methods to solve surface structures using surface X-ray or transmission electron diffraction data. The basic ideas of (crystallographic) Direct Methods are presented, as well as the additional problems posed by trying to apply them to surfaces and how they connect to the mathematical theory of projections. Surface crystallography notation is presented, which differs from the widely used LEED notation in that it emphasizes the surface symmetry. This is followed by a description of methods for structure completion and refinement, followed by applications to some experimental systems, both those where the structure was previously known (calibration tests) and a few where it was not, concluding with problems and limitations.

An extension theorem for finite positive measures on surfaces of finite dimensional unit balls in Hilbert spaces
A consistency criteria is given for a certain class of finite positive measures on the surfaces of the finite dimensional unit balls in a real separable Hilbert space. It is proved, through a Kolmogorov type existence theorem, that the class induces a unique positive measure on the surface of the unit ball in the Hilbert space. As an application, this will naturally accomplish the work of Kante...
متن کاملComparison of Aerobic Sporadic Bacilli Structure with Electron Microscopy
I. The existence of differences and similarities in the sur- 4. face features not only of different organisms or groups but also within given species has been demonstrated by a variety of techniques. 2. The different reactions of various organisms to the Gram stain might well be taken as one piece of evidence, the use of the electron microscop and associated preparative techniques (includi...
متن کاملDynamics of Macro–Nano Mechanical Systems; Fixed Interfacial Multiscale Method
The continuum based approaches don’t provide the correct physics in atomic scales. On the other hand, the molecular based approaches are limited by the length and simulated process time. As an attractive alternative, this paper proposes the Fixed Interfacial Multiscale Method (FIMM) for computationally and mathematically efficient modeling of solid structures. The approach is applicable to mult...

متن کاملEvaluation of Diagnodent Accuracy in Detecting Approximal Caries in Primary Molars
Introduction: Detection of caries lesions on approximal surfaces of posterior teeth is difficult, since wide contact points hamper direct visual inspection. Due to the importance of the early detection of dental caries, the aim of this study is to compare the performance of different methods (visual, bitewing radiography and DIAGNOdent) in detecting approximal caries in primary molars. Methods:...
