Interaction between Iron and Graphene Nanocavity: Formation of Iron Membranes, Iron Clusters, or Iron Carbides
Motivated
from a recent experimental study on filling of a graphene nanocavity
by iron membrane at room temperature (<i>Science</i> <b>2014</b>, 343, 1228), we perform a comprehensive study of morphology
changes of two-dimensional Fe membranes and iron carbides embedded
in graphene nanocavities with specific sizes and shapes using the
first-principles calculations and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations.
Our simulations show that Fe atoms tend to gradually seal the graphene
nanocavity via growing a metastable Fe membrane until the nanocavity
is completely covered. Notably, a densely packed Fe membrane in the
graphene nanocavity shows higher structural stability than a loosely
packed one as long as more triangular lattices can form to release
high tensile strain. The Fe membrane under high tensile strain tends
to collapse and turns into a three-dimensional Fe cluster upon detaching
from the edge. The structural transformation of Fe nanostructures
follows the melting recrystallization mechanism at ambient temperatures
in high vacuum. Moreover, the iron carbide can also exist in the graphene
nanocavity and once formed can be highly stable even at 1200 K
Design of Ferroelectric Organic Molecular Crystals with Ultrahigh Polarization
Inspired by recent successful synthesis
of room-temperature ferroelectric
supramolecular charge-transfer complexes, i.e., tetrathiafulvalene
(TTF)- and pyromellitic diimide (PMDI)-based crystals (Tayi et al.<i> Nature</i> <b>2012</b>, <i>488</i>, 485–489),
three new ferroelectric two-component organic molecular crystals are
designed based on the TTF and PMDI motifs and an extensive polymorph
search. To achieve energetically favorable packing structures for
the crystals, a newly developed computational approach that combines
polymorph predictor with density functional theory (DFT) geometry
optimization is employed. Tens of thousands of packing structures
for the TTF- and PMDI-based crystals are first generated based on
the limited number of asymmetric units in a unit cell as well as limited
common symmetry groups for organocarbon crystals. Subsequent filtering
of these packing structures by comparing with the reference structures
yields dozens of promising crystal structures. Further DFT optimizations
allow us to identify several highly stable packing structures that
possess the space group of <i>P</i>2<sub>1</sub> as well
as high to ultrahigh <i>spontaneous polarizations</i> (23–127
ÎĽC/cm<sup>2</sup>) along the crystallographic <i>b</i> axis. These values are either comparable to or much higher than
the computed value (25 ÎĽC/cm<sup>2</sup>) or measured value
(55 ÎĽC/cm<sup>2</sup>) for the state-of-the-art organic supramolecular
systems. The high polarization arises from the ionic displacement.
We further construct surface models to derive the electric-field-switched
low-symmetry structures of new TTF- and PMDI-based crystals. By comparing
the high-symmetry and low-symmetry crystal structures, we find that
the ferroelectric polarization of the crystals is very sensitive to
atomic positions, and a small molecular displacement may result in
relatively high polarizations along the <i>a</i> and <i>c</i> axes, polarity reversal, and/or electronic contribution
to polarization. If these newly designed TTF- and PMDI-based crystals
with high polarizations are confirmed by experiments, the computer-aided
ferroelectric material design on the basis of hydrogen-bonded charge-transfer
complexes with flexible electron-donor and acceptor molecules would
be proven valuable for expediting the search of room-temperature “displasive-type”
ferroelectric organic crystals
Influence of Structural Fluctuations, Proton Transfer, and Electric Field on Polarization Switching of Supported Two-Dimensional Hydrogen-Bonded Oxocarbon Monolayers
The structural alignment, proton
transfer, and molecular dipole
under an electric field and as a function of simulation time have
been investigated computationally for experimentally observed two-dimensional
sheets of croconic acid (CA) on Ag(111) surface and rhodizonic acid
(RA) molecules on Au(111) surface at room temperature. Depending on
their local environment, some of the OH···O bonds in
the CA monolayer exhibit spontaneous proton transfer especially for
those bonds that are part of a trimer unit within the hydrogen-bonding
network. In stark contrast, the RA molecules exhibit little proton
transfer. It is found that thermal structural fluctuations of the
molecular layers translate into considerable fluctuations of the polarization
vector within the film plane, and even polarization reversal, at room
temperature, which even can mask additional contributions to the polarization
from the spontaneous and electric field induced proton transfer in
CA monolayer. A common feature for both supported CA and RA monolayers
is their constant polarization normal to the film plane

Similarity between Referents Constrains the Processing of Contrastive Focus during Reading
Contrastive focus implies a contrast between two elements. However, it is unclear whether and how any interplay between such a contrast and similarity between potentially contrasting elements might affect focus processing. Accordingly, we report an eye movement experiment investigating this issue. The experiment used a background story to introduce eight characters whose social identities were manipulated to be similar or dissimilar. Participants first read this background story, then a series of two-sentence discourses while their eye movements were recorded. Each discourse referred to two characters from the passage who had either similar or dissimilar identities, with one (the target character) either focused using the Chinese particle zhiyou (meaning only) or unfocused. The results showed a typical focus facilitation effect, such that target character names were processed more quickly when focused than unfocused. We also observed a main effect of the similarity / dissimilarly of characters and, crucially, an interaction between this variable and focus. This interaction was due to slower processing of a post-target region when the target character was focused and the two characters had similar rather than dissimilar identities, but no such effect when the target character was unfocused. The findings suggest that establishing a contrast between referents is effortful during reading when these have similar rather than dissimilar social identities and so are more difficult to differentiate. The distinctiveness of referents in a discourse context may therefore constrain the establishment of contrastive focus during reading. We discuss these findings in relation to current theories of focus interpretation
Surface Pseudorotation in Lewis-Base-Catalyzed Atomic Layer Deposition of SiO<sub>2</sub>: Static Transition State Search and Born–Oppenheimer Molecular Dynamics Simulation
Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a novel deposition technique
for
constructing uniform, conformal, and ultrathin films in microelectronics,
catalysis, energy storage, and conversion. The possible reaction pathways
for the uncatalyzed and catalyzed ALD of silicon dioxide (SiO<sub>2</sub>) using SiCl<sub>4</sub> and H<sub>2</sub>O have been investigated
by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, combining static
transition state searches with Born–Oppenheimer molecular dynamics
(BOMD) simulations. In stepwise pathways of the uncatalyzed SiO<sub>2</sub> ALD reaction, the rate-determining step is the Si–O
bond formation accompanied by the rotation of SiCl<sub>4</sub> with
the activation free energy of 23.8 kcal/mol. The introduction of Lewis-base
catalyst, pyridine or NH<sub>3</sub>, can reduce the activation free
energy to 6.8 or 2.7 kcal/mol. The low energy barrier and flexible
pentacoordinated intermediate facilitate the surface pseudorotation
(SPR) pathway, which is similar to Berry pseudorotation (BPR) pathway
of the trigonal bipyramid (TBP) molecules, such as FeÂ(CO)<sub>5</sub>, SiCl<sub>5</sub><sup>–</sup>, and PF<sub>5</sub>. The catalyzed
reaction may undergo multistep pathways, including adsorption of precursor,
axial addition, surface pseudorotation, axial elimination, and desorption
of byproduct steps. With one ligand pivot linked to the surface, the
catalyzed reaction possesses three possible rotation modes. Through
the low-barrier pseudorotation transition states, the axial angle
changes from near 180° to 120° and the equatorial angle
changes from 120° to near 180°, indicating the pairwise
exchange of axial and equatorial ligands. The generality of Berry
and surface pseudorotations with the characterized TBP topology exhibits
the common fluxional behavior in pentacoordinated compounds containing
main-group and metal elements. Useful information can be provided
for ALD fabrication of various functional materials
