Improved infrared and visible emission spectra of the H3 and D3 molecules

Better-resolved Rydberg-Rydberg emission spectra of the neutral H₃ and D₃ molecules in the infrared and visible regions, with less interference from H₂ and D₂ emission, have been obtained by using a Droege-Engelking type of corona discharge source. Using nl_λ notation, the lower electronic states are 3p₁ in the infrared and 2p₀ in the visible, and the upper electronic states are mixed (3s,3p₀,3d₀,3d₁,3d₂) states. In particular, a line near 16 842 cm⁻¹ in H₃, previously obscured by an H₂ line, reveals a (3s,3d) interaction that is confirmed by other lines. The spectra are analysed including this interaction. However, fits to effective Hamiltonians still have relatively large standard deviations, probably partly due to poor convergence of the rotational expansions and partly due to many small perturbations of the levels by background states.     

Electronic excitation in phosphorus-containing molecules. II. Inner shell electron energy loss spectra of PF5, OPF3 AND OPCl3

Electron energy loss Spectroscopy has been used to obtain the inner shell excitation spectra of PF₅, OPF₃ and OPCl₃ in the P 2p,2s (L-shell) region as well as in the respective ligand K shell (F 1s, O 1s) and L shell (Cl 2p and 2s) regions. The spectra are compared and contrasted with earlier reported spectra obtained on the trivalent phosphorus compounds (PH₃, PCl₃, PF₃ and P(CH₃)₃). The spectra were obtained using an impact energy of 2.5keV and a scattering angle of about 1°. The spectra reported here are typical of molecules with electronegative ligands in that the discrete portions of the spectra show strong transitions to virtual molecular orbitais. In addition, intense features are observed at or just beyond the ionization edge attributable to transitions to trapped inner well states, while broad features further into the continuum can be ascribed to σ^*(P—L) shape-resonances (L = ligand). This resonance assignment was supported by a comparison with the corresponding spectra for PF₃ and PCl₃.

Electronic structure and chemical bonding of phosphorus-contained sulfides InPS4, TI3PS4, and Sn2P2S6

The electronic structure of phosphorus-contained sulfides InPS₄, Tl₃PS₄, and Sn₂P₂S₆ was investigated experimentally with X-ray spectroscopy and theoretically by quantum mechanical calculations. The partial densities of electron states calculated with the ab initio multiple scattering FEFF8 code correspond well to their experimental analogues—the X-ray K- and L_2,3-spectra of sulfur and phosphorus. The good agreement between theory and experiment was also achieved for K-absorption spectra of S and P in the investigated sulfides. In spite of the difference in the crystallographic structure of InPS₄, TI₃PS₄, and Sn₂P₂S₆ that influence the form of K-absorption spectra, the electronic structure of their valence bands are rather similar. This is due to the strong interaction of the P and S atoms, which are the nearest neighbors in the compounds studied. The electron densities of p- and s-states of phosphorus are shifted by about 3 eV to lower energies in comparison to the analogous electron states of sulfur. This is connected with the greater electro-negativity of sulfur, and is confirmed by the calculated electron charge transfer from P to S.

Electronic structures of MRhO2, MRh2O4, RhMO4 and Rh2MO6 on the basis of X-ray spectroscopy and ESCA data

X-ray O Kα, Rh Mγ and a series of M Lα emission spectra, ESCA spectra of the valence and inner levels, and O K and Rh M_III quantum-yield spectra for X-ray photoemission of the rhodium double oxides MRhO₂ (M = Li, Na, K), MRh₂ O₄ (M = Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb), RhMO₄ (M = V, Nb, Ta) and Rh₂MO₆ (M = Mo, W) have been measured and the dependence of electronic structure on the metal M analysed. For all compounds the inner part of the valence band corresponds to O 2p_σ + O 2p_π + Rh 4d states, while the outer part corresponds to Rh 4d. The valence band is separated from the conduction band by a narrow gap of width less than 1 eV. The first empty band, near the bottom of the conduction band, is formed by Rh 4d states, followed by a band due to vacant O 2p states.     

Electronic excitations in phosphorus-containing molecules. I. Inner shell electron energy loss spectra of PH3, P(CH3)3, PF3 and PCL3

Electron energy loss Spectroscopy has been used to obtain the inner shell electronic excitation spectra of PH₃, PF₃, PCl₃ and P(CH₃)₃ in the phosphorus L-shell (P 2p, 2s) region as well as the respective ligand K -shells (F 1s, C 1s) and L-shell (Cl 2p and 2s) regions. The spectra were obtained under small momentum transfer conditions so that dipole-allowed transitions dominate. An impact energy of 2.5 ke V was used and inelastically scattered electrons were detected at a typical scattering angle of about 1°. A dipoleforbidden transition of unusual character is observed at 135.11 eV in the P 2p spectrum of PCl₃. Although optically forbidden, as indicated by its absence in a soft X-ray absorption spectrum, the intensity of this transition rises very rapidly with increase in momentum transfer.     

Orbital-decomposed electronic and magnetic properties of the double perovskite Sr2FeReO6

The detailed orbital-decomposed electronic structures and magnetic properties of the double perovskite Sr₂FeReO₆ have been studied using the first-principles projector augmented wave (PAW) potential within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA). Both occupied and unoccupied s and three p states of Fe³⁺ ion are located far away from the Fermi level, while all up-spin states and most down-spin states are completely filled for the s and three p states of Re⁵⁺ ion. The octahedral crystal field of the oxygen atoms around transition-metal (TM) sites splits the five-fold degenerate d states of the free TM atoms into triply degenerate t_2g states with smaller bonding-antibonding splitting and doubly degenerate e_g states with larger bonding-antibonding splitting. The Fe³⁺ and Re⁵⁺ ions are in the states (3d⁵, S=5/2) and (5d², S=1) with magnetic moments 3.70 and −0.86μ_B, respectively and thus antiferromagnetic coupling via oxygen between them. There are no direct interactions between two nearest Fe-Fe or Re-Re pairs, whereas along each Fe-O-Re-O-Fe or Re-O-Fe-O-Re chains, the hybridizations between Fe 3d and 4s, O 2s and 2p, as well as Re 5p, 5d and 6s orbitals are fairly significant.     

1S0 and 3S13D1 nucleon-nucleon potentials in the quark compound bag model

For nucleons interacting via formation of the quark compound bag the resulting potential is written in a general form. Explicit examples of potentials are constructed in the ¹S₀, ³S₁ and ³S₁-³D₁ states fitted to the experimental data at T_L ? 1 GeV. As an outcome the QCB energy levels (dibaryons) and NN admixture in QCB are obtained in good agreement with theoretical predictions.     

Effects of Zn impurities on the electronic properties of Pr doped CaTiO3

Microcosmic investigations of weak red-emitting materials are crucial for their further development and application. In this work, we have focused on the band structures and electronic properties of Pr mono- and (Zn, Pr) co-doped CaTiO₃ using density functional theory. Zn substitution for Ca or Ti tends to form clusters energetically with Pr substituting for Ca in CaTiO₃. In Pr mono-doped CaTiO₃, the O_2p→Ti_3d transition in CaTiO₃ host corresponds to the centered 330 nm excitation spectra. The gap states above the valence band of ∼1.30 eV and ∼2.06 eV are hybridized by Pr_4f, O_2p and Ti_3d orbitals. They are mainly due to Pr_4f orbitals in CaTiO₃:Pr. The former gap level is related to red emission at 614 nm due to ¹D₂→³H₄ transition of Pr³⁺ activator. The latter is related to the excitation spectra centered at 380 nm due to the low-lying Pr-to-mental intervalence charge transfer transitions (Pr³⁺-O²⁻-Ti⁴⁺?Pr⁴⁺-O²⁻-Ti³⁺). The band structures of (Zn, Pr) co-doped CaTiO₃ keep the similar gap levels to those in Pr mono-doped CaTiO₃. The incorporation of Zn brings out the two stronger localized gap states, which are hybridized by Pr_4f, O_2p and Ti_3d orbitals, in comparison with those in Pr mono-doped CaTiO₃. Therefore, when Zn impurities are added into Pr doped CaTiO₃, the present calculations visualize the two enhanced levels and the distorted structures around Pr.     

Hydrogen-induced states in VHx and VDx observed by soft X-ray emission spectroscopy

From measurements of soft X-ray emission spectra (V-L₃) of VH_x and VD_x, a gradual change of d-band of V metal with addition of H(D), and an appearance of H(D)-induced states immediately below the d-band, are clearly demonstrated. The states, located at 7 eV below the Fermi energy for all compositions, are interpreted as being bonding states formed by H(D)-1s and V-3d orbitals. No isotope effects were detected within the accuracy of the experiment.     

The ν3 and 2ν3 bands of SO3, SO3, SO3, and SO3

This sixth of a series of publications on the high-resolution rotation-vibration spectra of sulfur trioxide reports the results of a systematic study of the ν₃ and 2ν₃ infrared bands of the four symmetric top isotopomers ³²S¹⁶O₃, ³²S¹⁸O₃, ³⁴S¹⁶O₃, and ³⁴S¹⁸O₃. An internal coupling between the l=0(A₁^′) and l=2(E^′) levels of the 2ν₃ states was observed. This small perturbation results in a level crossing between |k−l|=9 and 12, in consequence of which the band origins of the A₁^′,l=0 “ghost” states could be determined to a high degree of accuracy. Ground and upper state rotational constants as well as vibrational anharmonicity constants are reported. The constants for the center-of-mass substituted species ³²S¹⁶O₃ and ³⁴S¹⁶O₃ vary only slightly, as do the constants for the ³²S¹⁸O₃, ³⁴S¹⁸O₃ pair. The S-O bond lengths for the vibrational ground states of the species ³²S¹⁶O₃, ³⁴S¹⁶O₃, ³²S¹⁸O₃, and ³⁴S¹⁸O₃ are, respectively, 141.981 99(1), 141.979 38(6), 141.972 78(8), and 141.969 93(8) pm, where the uncertainties, given in parentheses, are two standard deviations and refer to the last digits of the associated quantity.     

Electron spectroscopy using excited atoms and photons IX. Penning ionization of CO2, CS2, COS,N2O,H2S,SO2, and NO2

The electron spectra resulting from thermal collisions of He* (predominantly 2³S) metastable atoms with the seven triatomic molecules, CO₂, COS, CS², N₂O H₂S, SO₂ and NO₂, are compared with their respective 584-Å photoelectron spectra using a transmission-corrected electron spectrometer. The normalised relative electronic-state transition probabilities for production of ionic states in Penning ionization and photoionization are reported together with energy shifts (ΔE values) for He*(2³S) Penning ionization. The cross-section for Penning ionization to lower states of NO₂⁺ is extremely low as has been observed in other open shell molecules such as NO and O₂.     

Composition depth profiles of Bi3.15Nd0.85Ti3O12 thin films studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy

In the present work, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to investigate the composition depth profiles of Bi_3.15Nd_0.85Ti₃O₁₂ (BNT) ferroelectric thin film, which was prepared on Pt(1 1 1)/Ti/SiO₂/Si(1 0 0) substrates by chemical solution deposition (CSD). It is shown that there are three distinct regions formed in BNT film, which are surface layer, bulk film and interface layer. The surface of film is found to consist of one outermost Bi-rich region. High resolution spectra of the O 1s peak in the surface can be decomposed into two components of metallic oxide oxygen and surface adsorbed oxygen. The distribution of component elements is nearly uniform within the bulk film. In the bulk film, high resolution XPS spectra of O 1s, Bi 4f, Nd 3d, Ti 2p are in agreement with the element chemical states of the BNT system. The interfacial layer is formed through the interdiffusion between the BNT film and Pt electrode. In addition, the Ar⁺-ion sputtering changes lots of Bi³⁺ ions into Bi⁰ due to weak Bi-O bond and high etching energy.

Decoupled magnetic subsystems in the random mixture FepCo1-p(C5H5NO)6(ClO4)2

Specific heat data on the random mixtures Fe_pCo_1-pL₆(ClO₄)₂, where L = C₅H₅NO, are presented. The Fe and Co magnetic atoms have competing anisotropies since the pure Fe and Co compounds are known to be good examples of the simple cubic, $\text{S =}\text{1}\text{2}$, Ising and XY magnet, respectively. The experimental data show the two magnetic subsystems in the mixtures to be almost completely decoupled, which is a consequence of the fact that the crystal field anisotropies of the Fe²⁺ and Co²⁺ ions, yielding g_∥ ? g_⊥ and g_⊥ ? g_∥, respectively, are very strong compared to the magnetic exchange interactions. Consequently the two magnetic subsystems experience one another as nonmagnetic impurities. A model is presented which explains these results, as well as those previously found for related random mixtures, in terms of two interpenetrating percolation clusters.     

Spectra and oscillator strengths of 3p63d9--3p53d10 and 3p63d9--3p63d84p transitions for cobalt-like Sn23+ ion

Microwave spectra of dimethylsulfide-d6, (CD3)2S,ground and excited torsional states

The microwave spectra of the molecular isotope (CD₃)₂S in the ground state and the first and second excited states of methyl top torsion (internal rotation) and of CSC deformation as well as the ground-state spectra of the ¹³C and ³⁴S substituted forms have been measured. The rotational constants and centrifugal distortion and rotation-vibration interaction constants could be determined. The rotational lines in the excited torsional states (1₁, 1₂, 2₁, 2₂, 2₃) were found to be split into quartets due to the interaction between molecular rotation and methyl top internal rotation. The experimental multiplet splittings were fitted to those calculated from a rotation-internal rotation Hamiltonian in order to obtain values for the internal rotation barrier V₃ and the top-top interaction potential coefficients V₁₂ and V′₁₂. V₁₂ was too highly correlated with V₃ for a separate determination. The values following from the least-squares adjustment are discussed.     

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of Co3O4, Fe3O4, Mn3O4, and related compounds

The metal 2p region spectra of the mixed valence spinels, Co₃O₄, Fe₃O₄, Mn₃O₄, and related compounds were studied. The satellite splittings of Co 2p_{$\text{3}\text{2}$} for the octahedrally coordinated cobaltous ions are 6.2 eV and those for the tetrahedrally coordinated ones are about 5.3 eV. The Co 2p spectrum for Co₃O₄ is considered to be the sum of spectra of magnetic cobaltous ions and low-spin cobaltic ions. In the cases of Fe₃O₄ and Mn₃O₄, the oxidation states were not clearly distinguished because both the divalent and trivalent ions of iron and manganese are high-spin.     

Dye laser site selection spectroscopy on U6+ luminescent molecular centers in LiF-U3O8 crystals

The polarized excitation and emission spectra of the U⁶⁺ molecular centers giving the most intense emission lines at 18 940 cm^?1 and 19 285 cm^?1 are presented and analyzed in detáil. From the polarization experiments, it is shown that the symmetry of the centers is C_4v and that the symmetries of the observed electronic states are Γ₂, Γ₁ and Γ₅. Finally, an electronic model is proposed which associates the emission and excitation lines of the U⁶⁺ centers in the visible region to transitions between the fundamental state $\text{Γ}{}_1\text{(6p}{}^6\text{,}{}^1\text{S)}$ and the states of the excited configuration $\text{6p}{}^5\text{(}{}^2\text{P}\text{3}\text{2}\text{) 7s}$.
