AbstractRhombic dodecahedron is a space filling polyhedron which represents the close packing of spheres in 3D space and the Voronoi structures of the face centered cubic (FCC) lattice. In this paper, we describe a new coordinate system where every 3-integer coordinates grid point corresponds to a rhombic dodecahedron centroid. In order to illustrate the interest of the new coordinate system, we propose the characterization of 3D digital plane with its topological features, such as the interrelation between the thickness of the digital plane and the separability constraint we aim to obtain. We also present the characterization of 3D digital lines and study it as the intersection of multiple digital planes. Characterization of 3D digital sphere with relevant topological features is proposed as well along with the 48-symmetry appearing in the new coordinate system.

Two polymer solutions of polyacrylonitrile, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, and Ni(CH3COOH)2 in dimethylformamide were electrospun into ternary composite nanofibers, followed by stabilization and carbonization processes to obtain porous carbon/nickel composite nanofibers with diameters of 100–200 nm. The study revealed that carbon/nickel composite nanofibers were successfully prepared, which allowed nickel particles with diameters of 20–70 nm to be uniformly distributed in the carbon nanofibers. It was also observed that the fibrous structures with particles embedded formed and the fibers broke into shorter fibers after sintering. X-ray diffraction indicated that embedded particles crystallized with the face centered cubic structure. The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis revealed that carbon/nickel composite nanofibers with meso-pores possessed larger specific surface area than that of carbon nanofibers. The specific capacitance of the composite nanofiber electrode was as high as 103.8 F/g and showed stable cyclicity (73.8%).

Multilayer SiO2 crystals modified by alkoxysilanes were fabricated by the vertical deposition technique combined with self-assembly method. The SiO2 colloidal crystallization was prepared by the traditional Stöber-Fink-Bohn method, and modified by different alkoxysilanes to investigate the properties of the films. The films fabricated by the ordering of SiO2 spheres were investigated by infrared spectrometer, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, UV-visible spectrophotometer. The results showed that thin film is the face-centered cubic structures and the spheres are [111]-oriented.

BIOREDUCTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF SILVER NANOPARTICLES FROM OIL PALM EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH (OPEFB). The synthesis of silver nanoparticles was successfully carried out by extracting oil palm empty fruit bunch. The precursor used was silver nitrate (AgNO3) with a concentration of 9x10-4 M and 5 wt% of the oil palm empty fruit bunch extract. OPEFB acted as a capping agent in the synthesis of silver nanoparticles. The bioreduction method Ag+ to Ag0 produced a silver nanoparticle colloid in brown color. The results of the UV-Vis spectrophotometer showed the silver nanoparticles colloids spectrum at a wavelength of 420 nm with an absorbance value of 0.5. FTIR shows the reduction and shift of absorption peak in the hydroxyl functional group (-OH) at wavenumbers of 3323 cm-1 and the presence of absorption peaks at 560 cm-1. While, XRD pattern showed the specific crystallinity peaks of silver nanoparticles at 2θ: 33.24°; 39.98°; 61.23°; dan 79.13° respectively with the face-centered cubic crystal structure (FCC) and crystallite size of 15 nm. PSA analysis showed two specific peaks with an average size distribution silver nanoparticles of 43.5 nm and a PDI value of 0.4. Analysis of TEM shows the average particle size of 20 nm with a spherical particle shape.

The orthogonal projections of the Voronoi and Delone cells of root lattice An onto the Coxeter plane display various rhombic and triangular prototiles including thick and thin rhombi of Penrose, Amman–Beenker tiles, Robinson triangles, and Danzer triangles to name a few. We point out that the symmetries representing the dihedral subgroup of order 2h involving the Coxeter element of order h=n+1 of the Coxeter–Weyl group an play a crucial role for h-fold symmetric tilings of the Coxeter plane. After setting the general scheme we give samples of patches with 4-, 5-, 6-, 7-, 8-, and 12-fold symmetries. The face centered cubic (f.c.c.) lattice described by the root lattice A3 , whose Wigner–Seitz cell is the rhombic dodecahedron projects, as expected, onto a square lattice with an h=4-fold symmetry.

ABSTRACTTICx films prepared by reactive sputtering using a Ti target and different methane partial pressures were characterized by analytical transmission electron microscopy. The films are polycrystalline, and the plasmon energy increases considerably with increasing carbon content. Combination of the information obtained from electron energy loss plasmon and core loss spectra, and electron diffraction indicates that x in TiCx increases linearly with methane partial pressure. We find that the face centered cubic TIC phase spans the composition from TiC0.2 to TiC1.0 and when x<l we have a mixture of TiC1.0 and amorphous C.

The composition, crystal structure and precipitation crystallography of a newly found precipitate are characterized by Cs-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy. The composition of the plate-like precipitate could be expressed as MgxAl2−xGd (x= 0.38), and its crystal structure is the same as the face-centered cubic type Laves phases Mg2Gd and Al2Gd, with a lattice parameter of 7.92 Å (space group No. 227, Fd\overline 3m). The orientation relationship between the matrix and precipitate is found to be (0001)m//(111)pand [10\overline 10]m//[1\overline 10]p, and the habit plane is parallel to the (0001)m//(111)pplane. In addition, this preferred crystallography of phase transformation is well explained on the basis of the atomic matching at the interface.
