in the present study we focused on the electronic and structural properties of na and mg adsorption on the surface of the (6, 6) armchair sicnts. the adsorption energy (eads), band gap energy (eg), partial density of state (pdos), chemical potential (μ), global hardness (η), electrophilicity index (ω), global softness (s), work function values (φ) and work function change (δφ) are calculated by...

Gap junctions mediate intercellular communication and are critical for development and nervous system function. Initially thought to function solely as stand-alone molecules, it has now been shown that a stomatin-like protein regulates a gap junction channel in Caenorhabditis elegans.

The electronic absorption spectral line shape of a diatomic molecule with harmonic potential curves is calculated using the time correlation function formalism. Both the equilibrium shift and the frequency shift of the two linking electronic states ate taken into account. The spectrum is also calculated using the cumulated expansion which is related to the correlation function of the time-d...

Zinc Sulfide (ZnS) thin films were deposited on glass substrates at the pressure of 10-6 mbar by thermal resistor evaporation technique. The effects of annealing on the structural, optical properties of ZnS films were studied. Crystalline ZnS films have been analyzed by X-ray diffraction. Only cubic phase with the preferred (111) plane was found in ZnS films. Optical characteristics were studie...
