On the base of the prior investigation, and from the point of view of bond population and net atomic charge, the relationships between the combination mode of the favorable growth unit and the relative intensity of chemical bond of the systems were discussed. The quantum chemistry calculations were performed at RB3LYP/6-31G and RHF/6-31G levels by ab initio and DFT methods respectively. From the point of view of bond population, it can be preliminarily presumed that the interatomic bond force of the system with side-face-combination-B mode is weaker to a certain extent. From the point of view of the net charge, when the combination mode is obverse-face-combination-D, the interatomic bond force will be enhanced.展开更多

The relationship between crystal morphology and physico-chemical conditions has been explained accord- ing to the modes of incorporation of the coordinative polyhedra of anions on the various faces of crystals. The dimensions of the growth units vary with the change of the growth condition.The incorporation rates on the various faces of the growth units with varied dimensions must be different,which leads to a satis- factory explanation for the variety of the crystal morphology.展开更多

According to the growth unit model, the growth units of lead tungstate are the aggregations of the tungsten oxide tetrahedrons and lead cations with various geometry configurations. It is suggested that the favorable growth units of lead tungstate crystal are pyramidal, tetragonal prism and quadrangular units corresponding to geometric orientations of the simple forms of the crystal. Under low restricted growth conditions, the growth form of lead tungstate crystallites is the aggregation of the geometric configurations of these favorable growth units. The above conclusions are completely confirmed by the experiment on hydrothermal preparation of lead tungstate crystallites.展开更多

The thickness of boundary layers changing with lattice faces was studied by \%in\|situ\% observation with Raman spectra, where the solution structure during crystal growth could be well observed. It was found that the solution structure at the boundary layer is similar to that of the crystal, so that the growth units are proposed as \[H\-2PO\-4\]\+-. The difference of growth rates of lattice faces is determined by the combination of growth units, which is mainly dominated by the angular orientation of K\|O and H\|O bonds. Consequently the reason about the difference of growth rates of lattice faces and the influence of pH value on the crystal morphology can be well elucidated.展开更多

Four sub-regions were detected with significant declines in summed growing season (May-September) EVI, namely theUpper Great Lakes, the Southern Appalachian, the Mid-Atlantic, and the southeastern Coastal Plain forests ecosystems. More than 20% of the undeveloped ecosystem areas in the four sub-regions with significant negative EVI growing season trends were classified as forested land cover over the entire study period. We detected relationships between annual temperature and precipitation patterns and negative forest EVI trends across these regions. Change patterns in both the climate moisture index (CMI) and growing degree days (GDD) were associated with declining forest EVI growing season trends. We conclude that temperature warming-induced change and variability of precipitation at local and regional scales may have altered the growth trends of large forested areas of the easternUnited Statesover the past decade.展开更多

Results show that the growth morphology of Mg2(OH)2CO33H2O whisker is consistent with the model of anion coordination polyhedron growth units. The growth solution Raman shift of Mg2(OH)2CO;3H2O was monitored using Raman spectroscopy. The growth units are [Mg-(OH)4]2- and H2COv The growth process of Mg2(OH)2COf3H2O whisker is as follows: growth unit [Mg-(OH)4]2- first incorporates into the larger dimension [Mg-(OH)4]2-, then the [Mg-(OH)4]2-n combines with H2CO3 into a linear skeleton Mg2(OH)2CO3 in the same line. Mg2(OH)2CO3 combines with H2O by hydrogen bonds and ultimately transforms into Mg2(OH)2COf3H2O whisker. Magnesium carbonate whiskers have a layered structure, each of which is made of magnesium, carbon, oxygen, with H2O in between each layer. When skeletons are superimposed within the same plane as a parallelepiped one, they grow into solid cuboid-shaped whiskers. When the parallelepiped skeletons planes combine with each other through the cascading links, they grow into hollow cylindrical whiskers.展开更多

(1)Several examples of the morphology of allomorph and homoeomorphism are given in the paper.There are three allomorphs of TiO 2 rutile,brookite and anatase.The morphology of these allomorphs are totally different because the stability of combination of octahedral [Ti O 6] 8- vary with the orientation and linked edges of coordination polyhedra.Another example is the homoeomorphism of cassiterite SnO 2.The orientation and combination of octahedral [Sn O 6] 8- in cassiterite are similar to that of octahedral [Ti O 6] 8- in rutile,so that cassiterite and rutile have similar morphology even for their form of twin and twin face.The combination of octahedral [Al O 6] 9- ,[Fe O 6] 9- and [Ti O 6] 8- respectively is similar at the orientation and linked form of coordination polyhedra in three crystals of corundum,hematite and ilmenite,so the same faces appear in these three crystals,resulted in similar morphology.展开更多
