Today, most research and development in this material system are focused on its conventional, hexagonal (i.e., wurtzite) phase although its cubic (i.e., zincblende) phase has more inherent advantages ...

This single layer is the precursor of the simple cubic (SC) unit cell. The lattice points are touching one another but not in the most efficient way. In other words, we are creating a lot of empty ...

This single layer is the precursor of the body centered cubic (BCC) unit cell. The lattice points are in the same general form as the simple cubic (SC) unit cell, with the exception that the atoms are ...

A new, simple form of a cubic equation of state (EOS) has been developed in a recent study. A comparison to experimental data and other cubic equations of state show that the new EOS is more accurate.
