Chromium wheels quasi-hexagonal 2D assembling by direct UHV sublimation.

چکیده
Chromium(III)-based wheels close-pack on the Ag(110) surface forming a quasi-hexagonal 2D network following direct sublimation in ultra high vacuum (UHV). Wheels organization and chemical integrity have been proved through in situ Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) studies.

Graphene-Like Bilayer Hexagonal Silicon Polymorph
We present molecular dynamics simulation evidence for a freezing transition from liquid silicon to quasi-twodimensional (quasi-2D) bilayer silicon in a slit nanopore. This new quasi-2D polymorph of silicon exhibits a bilayer hexagonal structure in which the covalent coordination number of every silicon atom is four. Quantum molecular dynamics simulations show that the stand-alone bilayer silico...
متن کاملFolded Cr12Co12 and Cr12Ni12 wheels: a sharp increase in nuclearity of heterometallic chromium rings.
Two novel record-sized heterometallic Cr12M12 (M = Co, Ni) chromium wheels with an unusual saddle-like architecture are created by reacting appropriate precursor complexes with the bridging ligand 2,2'-bipyrimidine.
متن کاملIn situ observation of graphene sublimation and multi-layer edge reconstructions.
We induced sublimation of suspended few-layer graphene by in situ Joule-heating inside a transmission electron microscope. The graphene sublimation fronts consisted of mostly {1100} zigzag edges. Under appropriate conditions, a fractal-like "coastline" morphology was observed. Extensive multiple-layer reconstructions at the graphene edges led to the formation of unique carbon nanostructures, su...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional hexagonal CrN with promising magnetic and optical properties: A theoretical prediction.
Half-metallic ferromagnetic materials with planar forms are promising for spintronics applications. A wide range of 2D lattices like graphene, h-BN, transition metal dichalcogenides, etc. are non-magnetic or weakly magnetic. Using first principles calculations, the existence of graphene-like hexagonal chromium nitride (h-CrN) with an almost flat atomically thin structure is predicted. We find t...
متن کاملSublimation of atomic layers from a chromium surface.
We employ low-energy electron microscopy to study the kinetics of thermal etching, or sublimation, of Cr(001) at approximately 1100 K. Atomic layers are removed from the surface by spontaneous nucleation and growth of two-dimensional vacancy islands, by rotation of spiral steps, and by island decay. The growth rates of vacancy islands and the rotation frequencies of double spirals are measured ...
