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.

The kinetic use of stable nitroxyl radicals in reactions of phosphites

Conclusions It was shown by the method of radical acceptors-stable nitroxyl radicals-that phosphoranyl radicals, formed in the reaction of tert-butylhydroperoxide with triethyl phosphite, are converted to phosphoranyl peroxide radicals in the presence of oxygen. The rate constant of formation of phosphoranyl peroxide radicals found at 20° is 250 times lower than the rate constant of the disproportionation of primary phosphoranyl radicals according to the reaction with the free radical.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 11, pp. 2454–2458, November, 1973.     

The open-shell interaction of He with the B 3Piu(0+) state of Br2: an ab initio study and its comparison with a diatomics-in-molecule perturbation model

The interaction of He with Br2 in electronically excited B 3Piu state is investigated using spin-unrestricted single and double coupled-cluster approach with noniterative perturbative treatment of triple excitations. Internal electrons of the Br atom are described by effective core pseudopotentials. The validity of this approach is analyzed by comparing the lowest 2Sigma+ and 2Pi electronic states of the HeBr molecule with those obtained in all electron calculations [J. Chem. Phys. 115, 10438 (2001)]. In this context, we examine the performance of different basis sets and saturation with bond functions. The comparison of theoretical blue-shifts with the experiment provides confidence about the present ab initio calculations. In addition, He-Br results of ab initio calculations at the same level are used to obtain approximate He-Br2 (3Piu) interactions in the framework of the diatomics-in-molecule first order perturbation theory (IDIM-PT1) [J. Chem. Phys. 104, 9913 (1996)]. Overall, the IDIM-PT1 model results show a good agreement with the ab initio ones, being the main difference the sensitivity to the elongation of the Br-Br bond.     

Interaction potentials of the RG-I anions, neutrals, and cations (RG = He, Ne, Ar)

Interaction potentials of the iodine atom, atomic cation, and anion with light rare-gas atoms from He to Ar are calculated within the unified ab initio approach using the unrestricted coupled-cluster with singles and doubles and perturbative treatment of triples correlation treatment, relativistic small-core pseudopotential, and an extended basis set. Ab initio points are fit to a flexible analytical function. The calculated potentials are compared with available literature data, assessed in the I(-)-and I+-ion mobility calculations and the Ar-I(-)-anion zero electron kinetic-energy spectra simulations, and analyzed using the correlation rules. The results indicate a high precision of the reported potentials.
