“…Because energetic materials are densely packed, we predict that there are many other manifestations of the crystal arrangement governing the decomposition chemistry and hence the sensitivity. To mention just a few vivid illustrations, we recall the shear-strain effect in DADNE [21,124,141], the aspects of autocatalysis analyzed for DADNE and TATB [124], polarization-induced charge transfer in δ-HMX [96], enhanced optical absorption on PETN-MgO interfaces [142], and photocatalytic dissociation of PETN molecules adsorbed on F 0 -centers on the α-Al 2 O 3 (0001) surfaces [143]. A variety of structural and electronic defects also play a role in changing decomposition chemistry in organic molecular crystals [19,122,133,144,145,146].…”
