On the limits of surface fractal behaviour in silica. A virtual adsorbates simulation

A computer simulation technique, suited to replicate real adsorption experiments, was applied to pure simulated silica in order to gain insight into the fractal regime of its surface. The previously reported experimental fractal dimension was closely approached and the hitherto uncharted lower limit of fractal surface behaviour is reported herein.

On the crystal structure of lithium peroxide, Li2O2

The two published lithium peroxide structures, both ascribed to the hexagonal P -6 space group, were subjected to reinterpretation and another more symmetric structure, now belonging to the P 63/m m c space group, was found. Detailed density-functional quantum mechanical calculations and crystal structure optimisations were carried out on both structures and the energetic arguments obtained therewith helped to rule out one of them.
