Exchange integral defect

With such calculations one can approach Hartree-Fock accuracy for a particular cluster of atoms. These calculations yield total energies, and so atomic positions can be varied and equilibrium positions determined for both ground and excited states. There are, however, drawbacks. First, Hartree-Fock accuracy may be insufficient, as correlation effects beyond Hartree-Fock may be of physical importance. Second, the cluster of atoms used in the calculation may be too small to yield an accurate representation of the defect. And third, the exact evaluation of exchange integrals is so demanding on computer resources that it is not practical to carry out such calculations for very large clusters or to extensively vary the atomic positions from calculation to calculation. Typically the clusters are too small for a supercell approach to be used.

The calculated mean field phase diagrams in the coordinates surface defects concentration - dielectric permittivity 82 are reported in the Fig. 4.16 for the same parameters as those in the Fig. 4.15. It is seen that for high defects concentration the exchange integral is larger than the corresponding mean field (the region Tc > T in the Fig. 4.16), the equilibrium curve shifts to the lower defects concentrations with permittivity increase, while effective mass increase leads to the increase of critical (threshold) concentration.

Taking into account the defect of vibrational energy in the W-exchange process, 2xs(E - E), where Xe is the coefficient of anharmonicity and ko is the rate coefficient of gas-kinetic collisions, the W-exchange probabihties Q in integral (3-122) are related to each other by the following detailed equilibrium relation ... 

The proton transport through the membrane of baeteriorhodopsin (BR), an integral membrane protein of Halobacterium salinamm, has been studied by Chaumont and eo-workers. The protein exhibits a water-filled channel through which a proton can be transported. This proeess is initiated by the absorption of a photon that eauses in turn several isomerisations and exchanges of proton defects. As a consequence a proton is pumped out of...
