A methodology to evaluate the kinetic stability of molecular nanostructures is presented based on the assumption of the independent and random nature of thermal vibrations, calculated at the density functional theory (DFT) level of theory using the harmonic approximation [1]. The kinetic stability (KS) is directly correlated to the cleavage probability for the weakest bond of a given molecular geometry. The application of the presented method to a selection of fullerenes (see Fig. 1) and carbon nanotubes yields clear correlation to their experimentally observed relative isomer abundances.
Moreover, we present good agreement of harmonic vibrational eigenmodes between DFT and the computationally more efficient density-functional tight-binding (DFTB) method [2-4]. Thus, DFTB-based KS calculations allow the estimation of kinetic stability for more than 100,000 isomers of the fullerenes C20-C100. We found that the experimentally observed isomer abundances, as recorded for instance by mass spectroscopic investigations, are reasonably well reproduced by the Boltzmann-weighted kinetic stabilities of the cage isomers. This result suggests a mechanism of fullerene formation involving cage destruction, such as recently predicted by quantum chemical molecular dynamics (QM/MD) simulations [5-6].

Electronic Switching of Single Silicon Atoms by Molecular Field Effectsioneec
We have observed on-off switching of scanning tunneling microscope current flow to silicon
adatoms of the Si(111)-(7 7) surface that are enclosed within a bistable dimeric corral of self-assembled
chlorododecane molecules. These thermally activated oscillations amounted to an order of magnitude
change in the current. Theory showed that small changes in molecular configuration could cause alterations
in the corralled adatom’s electronic energy by as much as 1 eV due to local field effects, accounting for the
observed current switching.
SWCNT Growth from Chiral and Achiral Carbon Nanorings: Prediction of Chiralit...Stephan Irle
Catalyst-free, chirality-controlled growth of chiral and achiral single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) from organic precursors is demonstrated using quantum chemical simulations [1]. Growth of (4,3), (6,5), (6,1), (10,1), (6,6) and (8,0) SWCNTs was induced by ethynyl radical (C2H) addition to organic precursors. These simulations show a strong dependence of the SWCNT growth rate on the chiral angle, θ. The SWCNT diameter however does not influence the SWCNT growth rate under these conditions. This agreement with a previously proposed screw-dislocation-like model of transition metal-catalyzed SWCNT growth rates [2] indicates that the SWCNT growth rate is an intrinsic property of the SWCNT edge itself. Conversely, we predict that the rate of local SWCNT growth via Diels-Alder cycloaddition of C2H2 is strongly influenced by the diameter of the SWCNT. We therefore predict the existence of a maximum local growth rate for an optimum diameter/chirality combination at a given C2H/C2H2 ratio. We also find that the ability of a SWCNT to avoid defect formation during growth is an intrinsic quality of the SWCNT edge.

Haeckelite and Graphene Formation on a Metal Surface: Evidence for a Phase Tr...Stephan Irle
Quantum chemical molecular dynamics (QM/MD) simulations of ensembles of C2
molecules on the Ni(111) terrace show that, in the absence of a hexagonal template, hydrogen, or step edge,
Haeckelite as a metastable intermediate is preferentially nucleated over graphene [1]. The nucleation process
is dominated by the swift transition of long carbon chains towards a fully connected sp2 carbon network.
Starting from a pentagon as nucleus, pentagons and heptagons condense during ring collapse reactions,
which results in zero overall curvature. To the contrary, in the presence of a coronene-like C24 template,
hexagonal ring formation is clearly promoted, in agreement with recent suggestions from experiments. In the
absence of step edges or molecular templates, graphene nucleation follows Ostwald’s ‘rule of stages’ cascade
of metastable states, from linear carbon chains, via Haeckelite islands that finally anneal to graphene.
Furthermore, we found similarities between graphene nucleation and other critical phase transition
phenomena [2]. Our analysis confirms the existence of a critical nC-C/NC value close to 1.0 (‘H’ model) and
1.1 (‘G’ model), where nC-C is the number of C-C bonds and NC is the number of carbon atoms. As in
random graph theory, above this critical value, the further conversion of linear carbon chains to sp2 carbon
polygons leads to the emergence of a fully networked carbon structure. Thus we find the theory of selforganized
criticality [2] applicable to discuss the sp2 network formation from sp chains in the formation
mechanism of graphenes.

Quantum chemical molecular dynamics simulations of graphene hydrogenationStephan Irle
Chemical adsorption of hydrogen atoms on graphite
surfaces has attracted considerable interest due to its
relevance for a broad range of areas including
plasma/fusion physics, gap tuning in graphene, and hydrogen storage. We adjusted the C-H repulsive potential of the spin-polarized self-consistent-charge density-functional tight-binding (sSCC-DFTB) method to reproduce
CCSD(T)-based relaxed potential energy curves for the
attack of atomic hydrogen on a center carbon atom of
pyrene and coronene at a tiny fraction of the computational
cost. Using this cheap quantum chemical potential, we performed direct on-the-fly Born-Oppenheimer
MD simulations while “shooting” H atoms with varying collision energies on a periodic graphene target
equilibrated at 300 Kelvin. We compared reaction cross sections for a) elastic collisions, b)
chemisorption reactions, c) penetration reactions in dependence of H/D/T kinetic energies, and found
remarkable differences to previously reported classical MD simulations of the same process. Using the
same potential, in simulations involving the shooting of up to 400 hydrogen atoms on the graphene sheet,
we observed the self-assembly of C4H, a novel polymer with localized aromatic hexagons, in agreement
with recent experimental findings.

In the talk, we discuss the significance of the findings in the light of more traditional, static descriptions of growth reaction mechanisms, and highlight differences as well as commonalities.
Origin of the Size-Dependent Fluorescence Blueshift in [n]Cycloparaphenylenes Stephan Irle
We present quantum chemical electronic structure calculations to investigate the nature of the low-lying excited states of [n]cycloparaphenylenes ([n]CPPs) and the role of static and dynamic geometrical distortions in the bright states. The lowest-energy bright states involve single-electron excitations from S0 ground state to S2 and S3 states, which are at the Franck-Condon geometry the two components of a twofold degenerate 1E state. They couple to a twofold degenerate e vibration which induces Jahn-Teller (JT) deformation of the CPP geometry from circular to oval shape. Non-radiative decay from the S2/S3 states to the ground S0 and first excited, dark S1 states is suppressed due to symmetry rules. The emission spectral features in CPPs with large number of phenylene units n can therefore largely be attributed to the E ⊗ e JT system associated with S2 and S3. However, absorption and emission energies computed at the respective S0 and S2/S3 minimum energy geometries are found to be nearly identical, independent of the molecular size n in the CPP molecules. In contrast, molecular dynamics simulations performed on the excited state potential surfaces are able to explain the experimentally observed fluorescence blueshift of the strongest emission peaks with increasing molecular size. This unusual feature turns out to be a consequence of large vibrational amplitudes in small [n]CPPs, causing greater Stokes shifts, while large [n]CPPs are more rigid and therefore feature smaller Stokes shifts (“dynamic blueshift”). For the same reasons, symmetry rules are violated to a greater extent in small [n]CPPs, and it is expected that in their case a “static blueshift” due to emission from S1 contributes in the fluorescence spectra.
Rh(I)-catalyzed Aldol-type Reaction of Organonitriles under Mild Conditions: ...Stephan Irle
Chemical modification of nitrle groups has significant importance in the field of organic synthesis. In particular, aldol-type reactions of organonitriles with aldehydes provide β-hydroxynitries, which are potential precursors for pharmaceutically important functionality. We previously reported that RhI complexes efficiently catalyzed aldol-type reactions of nitriles under mild conditions. However, the mechanism for activation of nitrile group in this Rh catalysis was not made clear. Because of the difficulty in functionalizing the nitrile group, it is of great importance to elucidate the mechanism of such an efficient catalytic reaction. Here, we conducted theoretical investigations to clarify the mechanism for the Rh catalysis.
All structures were optimized using the density functional theory (DFT) with the B3PW91 functional. We chose a moderate basis set size (6-31G(d) for non-metal elements and LanL2DZ for Rh) for geometry optimization, and energy refinement was done using a larger basis set ((aug-)cc-pVTZ and ECP28MWB) at ONIOM(DF-LCCSD(T):DF-LMP2). We looked into several reaction pathways with monomer and dimer catalysts, and proposed a plausible catalytic cycle.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

If not thermodynamic stability, then “the suprising abundance of
C60 and C70 must be of kinetic origin”.

•Method to estimate kinetic stability developed and applied
•Using DFTB, harmonic normal mode calculation is easy for
~100 atom systems, 100,000 calculations!
•Fullerene isomer abundance can be correlated with kinetic
stability, not with thermodynamic stability
•Carbon nanotubes are produced under conditions closer to
thermodynamic equilibrium
•Fullerene isomers show “flatter” kinetic stability distributions
at higher temperatures; cooling is important!
