LaMn1-xMgxO3钙钛矿的低温磁性

采用乙二胺四乙酸-柠檬酸联合溶胶凝胶法合成了B位掺镁的简单钙钛矿纯相样品LaMn1-xMgxO3(x=0~0.50). Mg在钙钛矿B位的掺杂和调节Mn3+/Mn4+的摩尔比强烈地影响样品的磁性行为. x≤0.08时, 样品低温下表现弱的铁磁性; x≥0.18时, 随着Mg掺杂引入的Mn4+离子间的反铁磁性超交换作用与Mn3+-Mn4+离子间的铁磁性双交换作用使样品在低温下呈现自旋玻璃态. 随着Mg2+掺杂量的增加, 样品的磁有序温度与自旋凝固温度单调降低.     

银掺杂对稀土锰钙钛矿输运性质的影响

将La0.67Sr0.33MnO3,Ag2O及TiO2粉混合经高温烧结后制备了两个系列钙钛矿相与金属Ag相的复合体系,通过改变Ti及Ag在样品中的含量,比较研究了材料的输运特性.0.07摩尔比Ti4+离子的掺杂能有效地把居里温度降至室温,而Ag的掺杂使材料的导电性明显增强.在顺磁高温区,材料的电导满足极化子跃迁机制,说明该复合体系中钙钛矿材料仍是系统的主要导电通道.室温下从Ag摩尔比z=0.30样品中得到最大的磁电阻,约为32%,是La0.67Sr0.33MnO3样品的8倍,也是未掺Ag样品的1.6倍.结果表明,采用Ag复合方法是提高钙钛矿材料室温磁电阻的有效手段.     

铜含量对La2/3Sr1/3MnO3的电输运及磁电阻的影响

先用溶胶-凝胶法制备出La2/3Sr1/3MnO3的颗粒系统, 然后用化学的方法将Cu材料引入到La2/3Sr1/3MnO3的颗粒表面, 形成(1-x)La2/3Sr1/3MnO3/xCu (x≤0.05)的复合样品. 实验表明 Cu含量较低(x＜0.02)时, 复合样品电阻率较大, 仅在低温区表现出大的磁电阻效应, Cu含量较高(x＞0.025)时, 复合样品的电阻率较小(～10-2 Ω·cm), 在室温附近(270～300 K)、 3 T的磁场下, 表现出较大的不随温度变化的磁电阻效应～10%.     

(La1-xREx)2/3Sr1/3MnO3(RE=Y,Sm,Eu,Tb;x=0.1～0.5)的晶体结构及磁性质研究

采用空气中固相反应烧结法制备了一系列钙钛矿结构的(La1-xREx)2/3Sr1/3MnO3(RE=Y,Sm,Eu,Tb;x=0.1～0.5)稀土锰氧化物多晶样品.X射线衍射(XRD)分析表明掺杂RE部分替代La以后,样品的晶体结构为正交结构,空间群为Pbmm.在室温(300K)和液氮温度(77K)下分别测试了样品的磁性质,发现磁性质的改变与RE的掺入量以及RE的离子半径有关.在掺Tb的样品中明显存在巨磁电阻效应,磁场为2 T,温度为300和77 K分别测得(La0.6Tb0.4)2/3Sr1/3MnO3和(La0.7Tb0.3)2/3Sr1/3MnO3的磁电阻(MR)为80%和85%.随着Tb掺杂量的增加,在不同的磁场下,样品电阻-温度关系曲线的峰均向高温方向移动.     

Ca、Bi掺杂Ba_(0.67)Sr_(0.33)TiO_3陶瓷弛豫特性研究

通过低成本固相法制备了Ca、Bi掺杂Ba_(0.67)Sr_(0.33)TiO_3陶瓷.利用透射电子显微镜(TEM)和阻抗分析仪分析技术,详细研究了Ca、Bi掺杂Ba_(0.67)Sr_(0.33)TiO_3陶瓷的弛豫特性.研究发现Ca、Bi掺杂使BST陶瓷呈现显著的铁电弛豫行为,且随着掺杂量的增加,介电峰弥散程度和弛豫强度逐渐增强.     

IrO_2掺杂对La_(0.7)Ca_(0.2)Sr_(0.1)MnO_3室温磁电阻效应的增强

将IrO2掺杂到固相反应法制备的La0.7Ca0.2Sr0.1MnO3(LCSMO)微粉中,制备了(1-x)La0.7Ca0.2Sr0.1MnO3+xIrO2(LCSMO/IrO2)复合体系。通过X射线衍射(XRD)、振动样品磁强计(VSM)以及直流四探针法测试,对复合材料的结构及性能进行了研究。结果发现,在复合体系中,一部分Ir4+离子取代了B位的Mn4+离子,另一部分以IrO2氧化物的形式存在于颗粒的边界处。随着IrO2掺杂量的增加,样品的比饱和磁化强度(σs)快速下降,而居里温度(TC)先下降后上升,电阻率也发生显著变化。与此同时,IrO2的掺杂使样品的低场磁电阻效应(LFMR)和高场磁电阻效应(HFMR)都有所增强,在H=3 kOe,T=307 K,x=5%的样品磁电阻达到11.65%;同样对于x=5%的样品,在H=2 T,T=295 K,磁电阻达到28%,室温磁电阻得到显著增强,这可能与本征磁电阻效应的特点及材料的TC和相变温度接近室温有关,另外掺杂物本身的特性对磁电阻的增强也有一定的影响。     

高性能Bi3+掺杂改性PbO2电极的制备及表征

采用电沉积法制备了金属Bi3+改性PbO2(Bi-PbO2)电极,并通过扫描电镜(SEM)、X射线能谱(EDS)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、X射线衍射(XRD)、紫外-可见漫反射(UV-VisDRS)、荧光光谱(FP)、莫特-肖特基(Mott-Schottky)曲线、电化学阻抗谱(EIS)和线性极化扫描(LSV)等方法表征了其微结构和电化学性能.SEM、EDS和XPS结果表明,Bi3+以Bi2O3的形式掺杂进入PbO2镀层,同时其掺杂改性可明显改善PbO2镀层的微结构,使电极表面颗粒细化;XRD和UV-VisDRS分析结果显示Bi3+掺杂改性后,PbO2晶体的晶胞参数发生变化,同时禁带宽度(Eg)变小;荧光光谱分析表明Bi-PbO2电极可促进羟基自由基的产生,增强电极降解有机物的催化活性;电化学性能测试显示,Bi3+改性PbO2电极电催化活性的提升与电极的平带电势(Efb)负移、活性表面积增大、电化学反应电阻减小和析氧电位提高有关.     

Ti(Ⅳ)掺杂Bi_2O_3电子结构和可见光催化活性的原理

密度泛函理论(DFT)计算对掺杂体系新型环境光催化剂设计开发具有指导意义.基于DFT框架下的第一性原理平面波超软赝势方法(USPP),对α、β、γ、δ-Bi2O3晶体几何结构分别进行了优化计算,从理论上得到了Bi2O3的总体态密度(TDOS)和Bi、O原子的分波态密度(PDOS).在此基础上对Bi2O3超晶胞进行Ti(IV)的掺杂计算,讨论了Ti(IV)掺杂对各种Bi2O3的电子结构和光吸收特性的影响.结果表明Ti(IV)掺杂Bi2O3晶体后,Ti(IV)的3d轨道进入禁带并与O2p、Bi6p轨道作用,使禁带宽度(Eg)变小,Bi2O3的吸收边红移,从而有助于Bi2O3光催化活性的改善.通过水热合成法制备的Ti(IV)掺杂Bi2O3样品的紫外-可见光漫反射光谱验证了计算的结果.在光催化降解有机染料结晶紫的实验中,光催化剂活性的改善进一步得到证实.     

Bi掺杂NaTaO3中Bi的化学价态对其光催化性能的影响

分别采用NaBiO3和Bi(NO3)3为Bi源制备了Bi掺杂NaTaO3光催化剂,研究了Bi离子的价态对NaTaO3光催化分解水制氢性能的影响.采用X射线衍射(XRD)、拉曼光谱、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)和紫外-可见吸收光谱研究了催化剂的晶体结构、Bi离子的化学状态和催化剂的光学吸收性能.以光催化分解水制氢反应研究了Bi离子掺杂NaTaO3的催化性能. XRD结果表明,对于两个不同Bi源掺杂的NaTaO3样品, Bi离子的掺杂没有改变催化剂的单斜相结构,但拉曼光谱证实Bi离子的掺杂致使Ta–O–Ta键角偏离了180o. XPS结果表明,以Bi(NO3)3为Bi源时, Bi离子以Bi3+掺杂于NaTaO3的A位;当以NaBiO3为原料时, Bi3+和Bi5+共掺杂于NaTaO3的A位.两种不同Bi源掺杂得到的样品在紫外-可见吸收光谱中给出了相似的光学吸收,但Bi3+的掺杂对NaTaO3光催化性能影响不大,而Bi3+和Bi5+共掺杂大大提高了NaTaO3的光解水制氢性能. Bi离子取代Na离子在A位的掺杂,在NaTaO3结构中引入了能够促进载流子分离的空位和缺陷;与此同时, Bi的掺杂导致Ta–O–Ta键角偏离180o而不利于载流子迁移.对于Bi3+掺杂的NaTaO3样品,这两种作用相互抵消,使得其催化性能与NaTaO3相比没有变化;而Bi3+和Bi5+的共掺杂和高价态Bi5+的掺杂引入了更多的空位和缺陷,提高了光生电子-空穴的分离效率,从而提高了光催化产氢性能.研究表明,光催化过程中载流子的迁移是影响催化性能的重要因素,而在ABO3钙钛矿结构的A位引入高价态离子是促进光生载流子分离的有效途径.     

Thermochromic Meltable Materials with Reverse Spin Transition Controlled by Chemical Design

We report a series of meltable Fe^II complexes, which, depending on the length of aliphatic chains, display abrupt forward low-spin to high-spin transition or unprecedented melting-triggered reverse high-spin to low-spin transition on temperature rise. The reverse spin transition is perfectly reproducible on thermal cycling and the obtained materials are easily processable in the form of thin film owing to their soft-matter nature. We found that the discovered approach represents a potentially generalizable new avenue to control both the location in temperature and the direction of the spin transition in meltable compounds.

Spin-inversion mechanisms in O2 binding to a model heme complex revisited by density function theory calculations

Spin-inversion mechanisms in O₂ binding to a model heme complex, consisting of Fe(II)-porphyrin and imidazole, were investigated using density-functional theory calculations. First, we applied the recently proposed mixed-spin Hamiltonian method to locate spin-inversion structures between different total spin multiplicities. Nine spin-inversion structures were successfully optimized for the singlet–triplet, singlet–quintet, triplet–quintet, and quintet–septet spin-inversion processes. We found that the singlet–triplet spin-inversion points are located around the potential energy surface region at short Fe–O distances, whereas the singlet–quintet and quintet–septet spin-inversion points are located at longer Fe–O distances. This suggests that both narrow and broad crossing models play roles in O₂ binding to the Fe-porphyrin complex. To further understand spin-inversion mechanisms, we performed on-the-fly Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics calculations. The reaction coordinates, which are correlated to the spin-inversion dynamics between different spin multiplicities, are also discussed.     

Tunneling spectroscopy of single electron spin

The possibility of detection of the electron spin of a single paramagnetic species (an atom, a radical, or an ion) on the surface was discussed. The analysis was based on spin chemistry laws taking into account the statistics of the spin states of both the tunneling electron and paramagnetic center. The equations for the tunneling current as a function of temperature and magnetic field strength were derived. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

One-bond 1J(15N─19F) spin–spin coupling constants of cationic fluorinating reagents: Insights from DFT calculations

We have investigated, by means of density functional theory protocols, the one-bond ¹J(¹⁵N─¹⁹F) spin–spin coupling constants in a series of fluorinating reagents, containing the N─F bond, recently studied experimentally. The results of the calculations show a very good linear relationship with the experimental values, even though only the M06-2X(PCM)/pcJ-2//B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level affords a very low mean absolute error. The calculations allow to analyze the various molecular orbitals contributions to the J coupling and to rationalize the observed positive sign, corresponding to a negative sign of the reduced spin–pin coupling constant K(N─F). Moreover, of the four Ramsey contributions, only the diamagnetic spin orbit is negligible, whereas the paramagnetic spin orbit and spin dipole terms decrease the magnitude of the Fermi contact (FC) term by an amount that goes from a minimum of 35% up to more than 60% of the FC term itself. Several effects have been investigated, namely, the contribution of the long-range solvent reaction field, relativistic corrections, and conformational and vibrational effects.

Electronic spectra and intersystem spin‐orbit coupling in 1,2‐ and 1,3‐squaraines

The main photophysical properties of a series of recently synthetized 1,2‐ and 1,3‐squaraines, including absorption electronic spectra, singlet‐triplet energy gaps, and spin‐orbit matrix elements, have been investigated by means of density functional theory (DFT) and time‐dependent DFT approaches. A benchmark of three exchange‐correlation functionals has been performed in six different solvent environments. The investigated 1,2 squaraines have been found to possess two excited triplet states (T₁ and T₂) that lie below the energy of the excited singlet one (S₁). The radiationless intersystem spin crossing efficiency is thus enhanced in both the studied systems and both the transitions could contribute to the excited singlet oxygen production. Moreover, they have a singlet‐triplet energy gap higher than that required to generate the cytotoxic singlet oxygen species. According to our data, these compounds could be used in photodynamic therapy applications that do not require high tissue penetration. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Determination of heisenberg exchange coupling constants in clusters with magnetic sites: A local spin approach

This work studies the ability of the two‐center local spin quantities, provided by the partitioning of the expectation value of the spin‐squared operator corresponding to N‐electron systems, for determining spin‐exchange coupling constants within the Heisenberg spin Hamiltonian model. The spin‐exchange parameters, which characterize this Hamiltonian for a determined system, have been evaluated in the HeH₂ aggregate and in several clusters (n = 2, 3, 4) with different geometrical arrangements, using internuclear distances larger than the equilibrium ones (beyond the bonding regions). The results found have been analyzed and compared with those arising from other approaches, showing the feasibility of our methodology. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

密度泛函理论方法研究双核铜化合物的磁性和自旋密度分布

Magnetic coupling constants J between Cu ions and spin density map for a binuclear complex Cu₂(2,2′-bpy)₂(4,4′-bpy)₂L₂ have been calculated by the combination of the broken symmetry approach with the spin project method under the DFT framework and the effect of nonorthogonality between magnetic α and β orbitals in the broken symmetry solution. The result indicates that using SV/SVP basis sets in the calculation of Gaussian 98 is much better than using LanL2DZ pseudo-potential function in above system. It is interesting that calculated J value is quite near to the experimental value in the studies of magnetic susceptibility.     

Studies of a Large Odd‐Numbered Odd‐Electron Metal Ring: Inelastic Neutron Scattering and Muon Spin Relaxation Spectroscopy of Cr8Mn

The spin dynamics of Cr₈Mn, a nine‐membered antiferromagnetic (AF) molecular nanomagnet, are investigated. Cr₈Mn is a rare example of a large odd‐membered AF ring, and has an odd‐number of 3d‐electrons present. Odd‐membered AF rings are unusual and of interest due to the presence of competing exchange interactions that result in frustrated‐spin ground states. The chemical synthesis and structures of two Cr₈Mn variants that differ only in their crystal packing are reported. Evidence of spin frustration is investigated by inelastic neutron scattering (INS) and muon spin relaxation spectroscopy (μSR). From INS studies we accurately determine an appropriate microscopic spin Hamiltonian and we show that μSR is sensitive to the ground‐spin‐state crossing from S=1/2 to S=3/2 in Cr₈Mn. The estimated width of the muon asymmetry resonance is consistent with the presence of an avoided crossing. The investigation of the internal spin structure of the ground state, through the analysis of spin‐pair correlations and scalar‐spin chirality, shows a non‐collinear spin structure that fluctuates between non‐planar states of opposite chiralities.
