  2. Rutherford scattering experiments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rutherford_scattering...

    Rutherford scattering or Coulomb scattering is the elastic scattering of charged particles by the Coulomb interaction. The paper also initiated the development of the planetary Rutherford model of the atom and eventually the Bohr model. Rutherford scattering is now exploited by the materials science community in an analytical technique called ...

  3. Metal–organic framework - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal–organic_framework

    More formally, a metal–organic framework is a potentially porous extended structure made from metal ions and organic linkers. [1][2][3] An extended structure is a structure whose sub-units occur in a constant ratio and are arranged in a repeating pattern.

  4. Liquid-crystal display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-crystal_display

    A wavy structure is easier to mass-produce than a prismatic one using conventional diamond machine tools, which are used to make the rollers used to imprint the wavy structure into plastic sheets, thus producing prism sheets. [112] A diffuser sheet is placed on both sides of the prism sheet to distribute the light of the backlight uniformly ...

  6. Density functional theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_functional_theory

    Density functional theory (DFT) is a computational quantum mechanical modelling method used in physics, chemistry and materials science to investigate the electronic structure (or nuclear structure) (principally the ground state) of many-body systems, in particular atoms, molecules, and the condensed phases. Using this theory, the properties of ...

  7. Isaac Newton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaac_Newton

    During this period he investigated the refraction of light, demonstrating that the multicoloured image produced by a prism, which he named a spectrum, could be recomposed into white light by a lens and a second prism. [63] Modern scholarship has revealed that Newton's analysis and resynthesis of white light owes a debt to corpuscular alchemy. [64]

  8. Platonic solid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platonic_solid

    This follows from the spherical excess formula for a spherical polygon and the fact that the vertex figure of the polyhedron {p,q} is a regular q-gon. The solid angle of a face subtended from the center of a platonic solid is equal to the solid angle of a full sphere (4 π steradians) divided by the number of faces. This is equal to the angular ...
