Approaching the diamond surface: first principles modelling the physics and chemistry of approaching radicals
No full textThe diamond surface plays a central role in much of the diamond research, and as such much of its properties are described and studied in great detail. There is a clear picture of the atomic scale structure of the different facets and their reconstructions. Also terminations with H, O, N and other atomic species as well as the incorporation of these elements has been modelled [1,2]. The electronic structure and the negative electron affinity mechanism is elucidated and so on. In contrast, however, the atomic scale models of diamond growth are much less developed, though progress is being made [3]. In these models the reaction barriers between stable and meta-stable intermediates are being calculated, providing insights into the kinetics of the surface. However, quantum mechanical models can provide much more insights than this. In this work, we simulated the approach of radical atoms and molecules towards the H-terminated diamond 001 surface. By allowing the model to equilibrate at every step, the physics and chemistry of the approach can be followed in minute detail. It allows us to indicate at which distance the surface and radical start interacting, and what that interaction entails. The charge evolution of the radical and the surface is followed by means of Hirshfeld-I charges, providing insights into charge transfer mechanisms. [4] Throughout the approach, the interaction can be followed through different physical and chemical concepts. Different types of bonding are identified as well as H-abstraction events and covalent bonding. In this work, our focus goes to C and P based radicals, showing them to behave very differently near the surface, providing insights into the requirements for improved P incorporation.The author name needs to be updated to include the middle names: Danny E.P.

Danny Sloan
No full textDanny Sloan was born in Camden, New Jersey. Inspired by a televised performance of Alwin Nikolais, Sloan began his dance education at the late age of twenty. He received a scholarship at the Pennsylvania School of Ballet where he often fought prejudices that discouraged African-Americans from studying ballet. Sloan eventually moved to New York City and studied at the Joffrey Ballet. He found living in New York difficult and when faced with a decision between a small Broadway role or an opportunity to move to Boston and help Talley Beatty establish a dance company, he opted for the latter. In 1969 Sloan moved to Boston, the city that would become the center for his work as a performer, choreographer, and educator.
Talley Beatty was invited to be a guest artist at the Elma Lewis School in Roxbury. He was well versed in Graham technique and was one of the first African-Americans to study at the prestigious School of American Ballet founded by Lincoln Kirsten and George Balanchine. He was also one of the first nine dancers to tour with Katherine Dunham. Talley Beatty’s choreography and Katherine Dunham’s technique became the defining influences on Danny Sloan. Beatty’s residency at the Elma Lewis School fostered a new dance company called the Dance Company of the National Center for Afro-American Artists. Following Beatty’s stay in Boston the company was directed by choreographer Billy Wilson. Sloan played a major role as a performer in this all black company dancing in the works of these two important choreographers. Although the DCNCAAA was committed to presenting works by various African-American choreographers, by 1975 Sloan’s choreography dominated the playbill. In 1976 he began the process of creating his own company.
The Danny Sloan Dance Company became a successful force in the New England dance community. The establishment of the company and its dedication to keeping the works of choreographers such as Geoffrey Holder, Billy Wilson, and Talley Beatty in its repertory played an important role in extending the influence of seminal African-American choreographers outside of New York City. His solidly trained dancers presented well crafted modern-based jazz choreography to communities throughout the Northeast. Sloan’s choreography included work that expressed the African American experience as well as high quality abstract dances. His company specifically targeted communities that might otherwise not have been exposed to dance. Not only did the Danny Sloan Dance Company carry the important choreographic works of Talley Beatty and Geoffrey Holder to inner city audiences, but it also provided a vehicle for young choreographers to show their work.
Sloan was also a distinguished teacher who instilled respect for the discipline of dance and a joyous sense of movement through his classes. He brought dance to disadvantaged children through his Inner City Dance Project and trained many adult performers and teachers in his strong technique. At various times throughout his career he was on the faculty of Boston Ballet, Jeanette Neill Studio, The Boston Conservatory of Music, Dean Junior College, The Walnut Hill School, and committed himself to residencies and master classes throughout New England.
He was honored by two choreographic fellowships from the Artists Foundation and received a Best of Boston Award for choreography in 1982. Danny Sloan’s contributions span over twenty-five years and reach deep into a broad cross section of the New England community. He leaves a significant body of dance work and has touched educators, artists, minority communities, and a wide range of audiences throughout New England. Bridgewater State University celebrates the important contributions of Danny Sloan as an performer, choreographer, and educator through the Hall of Black Achievement.https://vc.bridgew.edu/hoba/1014/thumbnail.jp
