A new parameterization of Si and Ge in the framework of the extended Hückel theory is presented. Bandgap and effective mass are calculated for unstrained and biaxially strained SiGe alloys. In SiGeC alloys with C atoms in close proximity, additional bands are observed, which are related to defect states in real crystals.

Advances and Trends in Terrain Classification Methods for Off‐Road Perception
ABSTRACT Off‐road autonomous vehicles (OAVs) are becoming increasingly popular for navigating challenging environments in agriculture, military, and exploration applications. These vehicles face unique challenges, such as unpredictable terrain, dynamic obstacles, and varying environmental conditions.

ABSTRACT As part of the special issue Centering Affect and Emotion Toward Justice and Dignity in Science Education, this paper examines the emergence and performance of hyperrationality in STEM classrooms. Hyperrationality describes verbal and embodied expressions whereby learners try to maintain an appearance of neutrality and emotional distance to ...

The Formation and Transformation of Low‐Dimensional Carbon Nanomaterials by Electron Irradiation
The article reviews irradiation phenomena in graphene‐ or graphite‐based nanomaterials from the scale of single atoms to tens or hundreds of nanometers. Observations dating back to the 1990s can now be explained on the basis of new results. The evolution of the understanding during three decades of research is presented, and the remaining problems are ...
