An Orthorhombic Polymorph of Lanthanum Ultraphosphate LaP_5O_（14）：Synthesis, Structure and Density Functional Study

An orthorhombic polymorph of lanthanum ultraphosphate, LaP5O14, was firstly synthesized by the high temperature solid-state reaction and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction technique. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmna space group with a=13.155(3), b=8.816(2), c=9.115(2) , V=1057.1(4) 3 and Z=4. The structure features (P5O14)3-anionic ribbons linked with neighboring LaO8 polyhedra. The title solid-state compound is an insulator. Theoretically calculated energy band structure, density of states (DOS), and optical response function by density function theory (DFT) for LaP5O14 were also performed.     

强磁场作用对聚苯胺颗粒形貌及电性能的影响

聚苯胺的聚合掺杂条件对其颗粒结构及其导电性能有着很大的影响. 本文在10 T强磁场的作用下用化学氧化溶液原位聚合法得到聚苯胺并观察充分聚合后聚苯胺的颗粒结构、形貌特征及与其形成复合材料的电性能. 实验表明, 在没有强磁场作用下掺杂聚苯胺颗粒呈现礁石状, 而强磁场作用下的原位聚合聚苯胺颗粒呈现直径大约50 nm的棒状, 但其复合材料的电阻率与没有强磁场相比高出3个数量级; 本征态聚苯胺在强磁场下再掺杂得到20～30 nm的球状颗粒, 其复合材料电阻率却降低1个数量级. 分析认为这主要由于强磁场对聚苯胺晶粒的取向作用以及强磁场对聚合掺杂过程的影响所至.
