Prediction of four Si3N4 compounds by first-principles calculations
Four Si3N4 crystal structures were predicted using an ab initio evolutionary methodology. The mechanical and dynamic stabilities were confirmed by the density functional theory assuming zero-pressure conditions. Energetic stability calculations indicated

Chemical Abrasion: The Mechanics of Zircon Dissolution
Abstract. Chemical abrasion is a technique that combines laboratory annealing and partial dissolution in hydrofluoric acid (HF) to selectively remove radiation-damaged portions of zircon crystals prior to U-Pb isotopic analysis, and it is applied ubiquitously to zircon prior to U-Pb isotope dilution thermal ionization mass spectrometry (ID-TIMS).
