Porosity control in nylon-6/nylon-6, 6 membranes

The possibility of porosity control in N6/N66 membranes prepared from N6/N66 blend solutions of calcium chloride – methanol mixture was investigated. For N6/N66 blend solutions at 10 °C and 20 °C, the four-phase structure of solid, gel 1, gel 2 and solution was observed clearly in the pore formation process after adding water on a solution surface.

Inner-shell and valence-shell electronic excitation of SF6, SeF6 and TeF6 by high energy electron impact: An investigation of potential barrier effects

Inner- and valence-shell electron energy loss spectra of gaseous SF₆, SeF₆ and TeF₆ have been measured at high impact energy (2.0–3.7 keV) and zero degree scattering angle. The resulting inner-shell excitation spectra include F 1s, S 2s and 2p in SF₆: F 1s, Se 3s, 3p and 3d in SeF₆ and F 1s, Te 4s, 4p, 4d and 3d in TeF₆. The results for each of these hexafluorides are interpreted, in the framework of the potential barrier model, as excitations to resonances involving a common manifold of virtual valence (inner-well) orbitals and also to Rydberg (outer-well) orbitals. The below-edge shape resonances in corresponding inner-shell excitation spectra of these hexafluorides show very similar variations in intensities in accord with expectations based on electric-dipole selection rules. This is an indication that these below-edge resonances in SeF₆ and TeF₆ are of the same symmetry as those in SF₆ (i.e. a_1g and t_1u). The continuum (above-edge) shape resonances in SeF₆ also show similar spectral behavior to those of SF₆ and can be understood by including Se 4d and S 3d orbitals in the basis for the respective MO schemes. However, in TeF₆ completely different spectral behavior is observed for the continuum resonances. In particular, there is a dramatic series of intense resonances observed above the Te 3d and 4d edges. The TeF₆ spectrum can only be understood by extending the MO basis set to include the Te 4f orbitals which are even lower lying than the Te 5d orbitals. Therefore, these continuum resonances which are also seen in the F 1 s and Te 3p spectra of TeF₆ are assigned to l=3 (f-type) continuum shape resonances due to involvement of the 4f orbitals rather than the l=2 (d-type) continuum resonances observed in SF₆ and SeF₆. This is the first reported observation of such f-type continuum shape resonances and such considerations will likely prove to be important in the understanding of near-edge spectra of heavy atom containing species. The VSEELS spectra which are very similar for the three hexafluorides also show significant continuum shape resonances. A consideration of both the ISEELS and the VSEELS spectra indicates that there is a weakening of the potential barrier in going through the series from SF₆, SeF₆ to TeF₆.     

Das Reaktionsverhalten von Cp2NbCl2 gegenüber WF6—Struktur von [Cp2NbCl2]4[WF6]2[WCl6]

The oxidation of Cp₂NbCl₂ with pure WF₆ in SO₂ solution yielded the cationic metallocene species [Cp₂NbCl₂]⁺[WF₆]⁻ essentially in quantitative yield. The same reaction carried out in the presence of either equimolar amounts or a two-fold excess of HCN led to the preparation of the new niobocenium salt [Cp₂NbCl₂]₄⁺[WF₆]²⁻ which was studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction. This compound represents the first example of a structurally characterized metallocene-WF₆⁻ complex, and crystallizes in the tetragonal system: space group, P4₁2₁2(No. 92), a = 11.083(8) Å, c = 48.285 (9) Å; Z = 8; R = 0.0759, R_W = 0.0841. ab]Die Oxidation von Cp₂NbCl₂ mit reinem WF₆ führt in SO₂-Lösung zur Synthese von [Cp₂NbCl₂ ]⁺[WF₆]⁻ in nahezu quantitativer Ausbeute.

Molecular dynamics study on lattice defects and heat capacity of LiCr1/6Mn11/6O4-d

Heat capacity of spinel LiCr_1/6Mn_11/6O_4-d (d=0, 0.0184)was measured between 5 and 300 K. Both compounds showed no anomaly in the measured temperature range, especially around the room temperature where a structural phase transition is reported for the parent compound LiMn₂O₄. The non-stoichiometric compound LiCr_1/6Mn_11/6O_3.9816 has greater heat capacity than that of the stoichiometric LiCr_1/6Mn_11/6O₄. Molecular dynamics study on the vibrational property of LiMn₂O_4-d revealed that the lattice defects in the non-stoichiometric compound increase the low frequency phonons compared with the stoichiometric compound. It should be related to the greater heat capacity of the non-stoichiometric compound LiCr_1/6Mn_11/6O_3.9816. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Fabrication and Luminescent Properties of 6H-SiC/3C-SiC/6H-SiC Quantum Well Structure

Quantum well structure film of 6H-SiC/3C-SiC/6H-SiC was fabricated on 6H-SiC (0001) with the substrate temperature of 1350 K by solid source molecular beam epitaxy (SSMBE) through the variation of Si flux rate. The crystal polytypes and luminescent properties of the film were characterized by reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) and photoluminescence (PL), respectively. The results of RHEED indicated that the film was 6H-SiC/3C-SiC/6H-SiC with the quantum well structure. The results of PL excited by He-Gd laser at room temperature showed that there were intense emissions in the range of 480–600 nm, which could not be observed from the substrate. The fitting peaks were consistent with the results calculated from the model of quantum well structure, which showed that such intense emissions were probably from the quantum wells with different widths.

Mott-Schottky Analysis and Impedance Spectroscopy of TiO2/6T and ZnO/6T devices

Schottky junctions have been realized by evaporating gold spots on top of sexithiophen (6T), which is deposited on TiO 2 or ZnO with e-beam and spray pyrolysis. Using Mott-Schottky analysis of 6T/TiO2 and 6T/ZnO devices acceptor densities of 4.5x10(16) and 3.7x10(16) cm(-3) are obtained, respectively. For 6T/TiO2 deposited with the e-beam evaporation a conductivity of 9x10(-8) S cm(-1) and a charge carrier mobility of 1.2x10(-5) cm2/V s is found. Impedance spectroscopy is used to model the sample response in detail in terms of resistances and capacitances. An equivalent circuit is derived from the impedance measurements. The high-frequency data are analyzed in terms of the space-charge capacitance. In these frequencies shallow acceptor states dominate the heterojunction time constant. The high-frequency RC time constant is 8 micros. Deep acceptor states are represented by a resistance and a CPE connected in series. The equivalent circuit is validated in the potential range (from -1.2 to 0.8 V) for 6T/ZnO obtained with spray pyrolysis.

Synthesis, structural characterization and reactivity of the amino borane 1-(NPh2)-2-[B(C6F5)2]C6H4

The bright red title compound 1 was synthesized from (2-lithiophenyl)diphenylamine and bis(pentafluorophenyl)boron chloride. Its reactions with small acids like H₂O and HCl proceeded easily giving zwitterionic compounds. For 1 and its water adduct 2 the crystal structures were determined, the latter featuring an ammonium borate structure containing a short intramolecular hydrogen bond bridge. Treatment of 1 with Jutzi's acid, [H(OEt₂)₂][B(C₆F₅)₄], did not result in protonation of the nitrogen, but reaction of 1 with LiH in the presence of 12-crown-4, led to the isolation of the aminoborate [1-(Ph₂N)-2-{B(H)(C₆F₅)₂}C₆H₄][Li(12-crown-4)] (3). Borohydride 3 reacted with Jutzi's acid to regenerate 1 and liberate hydrogen.
