AbstractAn atomistic model of phase formation in ion bombarded thin binary metallic films is discussed. Compositional changes occur at the interface between collision cascades and crystal matrix. Relaxation arises via elementary charge transfer reactions, with formation of dimers of an effective compound. Comparing surface and thermochemical properties of initial and effective alloys, a set of conditions specific to vitrification and respectively tocrystal formation under ion bombardment is obtained.

Base-stacked structure is an important feature of DNA molecules. Previous studies on the stacking effect concerning DNA-mediated hole transfer have revealed the influence of neighboring bases on onsite energies. But the neighboring base effect acts only in a short-distance. Besides it, a long-range (longer than three base pairs) stacking effect called squeezing effect in this paper has not yet been reported. Such a squeezing effect causes the bases near the middle of a sequence consisting of same type base pairs have lower onsite energies than the bases near the terminals. We predict it by H ̈uckelanalysis in an unconventional way and confirmed it by semiempirical calculations combinated with molecular dynamics simulations. The results suggest that in order to obtain a reasonable onsite energy map when study charge transfer on DNA, the stacking effects should be considered in a long-distance as possible. The consideration of squeezing effect also provides a new suggestion on the driving force of fluctuation-assisted DNA charge transfer. The method used to calculate the onsite energies in abase stack can be generalized to other π-stacked systems.<br><br>
