Crystal structure prediction seeks to identify the stable or metastable crystal structures for any given chemical compound adopted under specific conditions. Traditionally, this process relies on ...
The symmetry and geometry of a crystal fundamentally determine its various physical and chemical properties. However, crystal structure prediction, including space group determination and crystal ...
Beryl’s crystal structure is more complicated than corundum’s because of the additional elements in the formula, but each aluminum ion is again surrounded by six oxygen ions.
In this structure, the width of the end-face waveguides and the spacing between them affect the final coupling efficiency. Therefore, taking TE mode as an example, the effects of the width of end-face ...
Despite the ubiquity of molecular crystals in many everyday products, the ability to predict their three-dimensional structures remains a challenge, especially if a compound can crystallize into ...
