Nanoparticles' and atoms' geometry-wave potential unified properties

by Tian, Z. R.

This work has introduced a geometry-wave (GW) potential to linearly fit, consistently unify, and quant. predict pm- and nm-sized particles' GW potential-based properties "known" and new, thus-complementing de Broglie's matter-wave generally. The "known" properties cover gold nanoparticles' (NPs') m.p. and surface plasmon resonance, semiconducting NPs' optical bandgap, and main group atoms' electronegativity (EN), ionization potential (IPs), and polarizability. The new properties include NP-surface atoms' layering (like atom-surface electrons'), self-assembled NPs' inter-bonding via sharing surface-atoms (like surface electron-shared interat. bonding), and atom-like NPs GW-potential's periodicity like atoms electronegativity's.
