On the basis of a multipole refinement of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data collected using an Ag source at 90 K to a resolution of 1.63 Å−1, a quantitative experimental charge density distribution has been obtained for fluorite (CaF2). The atoms-in-molecules integrated experimental charges for Ca2+and F−ions are +1.40 e and −0.70 e, respectively. The derived electron-density distribution, maximum electron-density paths, interaction lines and bond critical points along Ca2+...F−and F−...F−contacts revealed the character of these interactions. The Ca2+...F−interaction is clearly a closed shell and ionic in character. However, the F−...F−interaction has properties associated with the recently recognized type of interaction referred to as `charge-shift' bonding. This conclusion is supported by the topology of the electron localization function and analysis of the quantum theory of atoms in molecules and crystals topological parameters. The Ca2+...F−bonded radii – measured as distances from the centre of the ion to the critical point – are 1.21 Å for the Ca2+cation and 1.15 Å for the F−anion. These values are in a good agreement with the corresponding Shannon ionic radii. The F−...F−bond path and bond critical point is also found in the CaF2crystal structure. According to the quantum theory of atoms in molecules and crystals, this interaction is attractive in character. This is additionally supported by the topology of non-covalent interactions based on the reduced density gradient.

ABSTRACTA modified critical point model dielectric function for graphene is derived here and used to analyze spectroscopic ellipsometry data obtained over a wide spectral range from 3 to 9 eV. Critical point and exciton resonance energies are extracted and discussed. Our findings indicate that epitaxial graphene on SiC to exhibits equivalent exciton behavior to that of suspended graphene. We further apply our model dielectric function to evaluate dielectric function data for highly oriented pyrolytic graphite reported in the literature. Excellent agreement is found between the critical point model developed here and the literature data even for the low energy spectral range up to 1 eV.

The three commonly used techniques, viz. critical point model, area under the curve and multiple linear regression, were applied to study the relationship between scald infection and grain yield in field experiments conducted during 1979-1983 in Western Australia. In the preliminary analysis leaf three from the top and the mean of the top three leaves were found to be best correlated with yield. The three models did not dilfer greatly, presumably owing to the high correlations between scald at the milky ripe stage and at the earlier growth stages. The critical point model was chosen because of its simplicity. Percentage yield loss in combined data from all experiments showed a significant correlation (P < 0.001) with scald at the milky ripe stage and defined percentage yield loss in cultivars Clipper and Stirling to be about one-third of the mean scald damage on leaves 1 (flag), 2 and 3 at g.s. 75. Due to the range of trials in this analysis, it was suggested that this relationship may be applied to estimate yield loss from survey data in other parts of southern Australia, where scald is endemic.
