  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Yoked prism can move the image away from primary gaze without the need for a constant head tilt or turn. Prism correction is measured in prism dioptres. A prescription that specifies prism correction will also specify the "base". The base is the thickest part of the lens and is opposite from the apex.

  3. Octahedral molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octahedral_molecular_geometry

    0. In chemistry, octahedral molecular geometry, also called square bipyramidal, [1] describes the shape of compounds with six atoms or groups of atoms or ligands symmetrically arranged around a central atom, defining the vertices of an octahedron. The octahedron has eight faces, hence the prefix octa. The octahedron is one of the Platonic ...

  4. Capped trigonal prismatic molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capped_trigonal_prismatic...

    7. In chemistry, the capped trigonal prismatic molecular geometry describes the shape of compounds where seven atoms or groups of atoms or ligands are arranged around a central atom defining the vertices of an augmented triangular prism. This shape has C 2v symmetry and is one of the three common shapes for heptacoordinate transition metal ...

  5. Square antiprism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_antiprism

    Square antiprism. In geometry, the square antiprism is the second in an infinite family of antiprisms formed by an even-numbered sequence of triangle sides closed by two polygon caps. It is also known as an anticube. [1] If all its faces are regular, it is a semiregular polyhedron or uniform polyhedron .

  6. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    The phase diagram shows, in pressure–temperature space, the lines of equilibrium or phase boundaries between the three phases of solid, liquid, and gas . The curves on the phase diagram show the points where the free energy (and other derived properties) becomes non-analytic: their derivatives with respect to the coordinates (temperature and ...

  7. Trigonal prismatic molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonal_prismatic...

    In chemistry, the trigonal prismatic molecular geometry describes the shape of compounds where six atoms, groups of atoms, or ligands are arranged around a central atom, defining the vertices of a triangular prism. Examples Portion of lattice of [Te 6](O 3 SCF 3) 2. The intra- and inter-triangle Te-Te distances are 2.70 and 3.06 Å, respectively.

  8. Periodic boundary conditions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_boundary_conditions

    Periodic boundary conditions. Periodic boundary conditions ( PBCs) are a set of boundary conditions which are often chosen for approximating a large (infinite) system by using a small part called a unit cell. PBCs are often used in computer simulations and mathematical models. The topology of two-dimensional PBC is equal to that of a world map ...

  9. Ramachandran plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramachandran_plot

    Ramachandran plot. Backbone dihedral angles φ and ψ (and ω). All three angles are at 180° in the conformation shown. In biochemistry, a Ramachandran plot (also known as a Rama plot, a Ramachandran diagram or a [φ,ψ] plot ), originally developed in 1963 by G. N. Ramachandran, C. Ramakrishnan, and V. Sasisekharan, [1] is a way to visualize ...
