The nature and properties of the electronically excited state of the complex responsible for its luminescence are determined.     

Effects of helium implantation on mechanical properties of (Al_(0.31)Cr_(0.20)Fe_(0.14)Ni_(0.35)) O high entropy oxide films

It is widely accepted that helium(He) bubbles can prevent dislocations from moving and causing hardening and embrittlement of the material. However, He can affect the mechanical properties of materials in various ways. In this work,ultrafine nanocrystal high entropy oxide(HEO) films with He implantation are prepared by using a radio frequency(RF)reactive magnetron sputtering system to investigate the effects of He bubbles located at grain boundary on the mechanical properties of the films. The mechanical properties of the HEO films are investigated systematically via nanoindentation measurements. The results indicate that the grain boundary cavities induced by He implantation can degrade the hardness,the elastic modulus, and the creep resistance of the HEO films. The mechanical properties of the HEO films are sensitive to the interaction between the He bubbles and the dominating defects.

Low thermal expansion and broad band photoluminescence of Zr0.1Al1.9Mo2.9V0.1O12

A new material of Zr0.1Al1.9Mo2.9V0.1O12 is synthesized by the traditional solid state synthesis method.The phase transition,coefficient of thermal expansion,and luminescence properties of Zr0.1Al1.9Mo2.9V0.1O12 are explored with Raman spectrometer,dilatometer,and x-ray diffraction(XRD)diffractometer.The results show that the Zr0.1Al1.9Mo2.9V0.1O12 possesses the strong broad-band luminescence characteristics almost in the whole visible region.The sample is crystallized in a monoclinic structure group of P21/a(No.14)crystallized at room temperature(RT).The crystal is changed from monoclinic to orthorhombic structure when the temperature increases to 463 K.The material has very low thermal expansion performance in a wide temperature range.Its excellent low thermal expansion and strong pale green light properties in a wide temperature range suggest its potential applications in light-emitting diode(LED)and other optoelectronic devices.     

Surface and bulk normal state transport properties in K(3)C(60)

The temperature dependence of the surface resistivity for a metallic K(3)C(60) ordered film in the nonsuperconducting state has been obtained by reflection electron energy loss spectroscopy. We demonstrate that the normal state electronic and transport properties of the top molecular layer of K(3)C(60) are similar to the corresponding properties measured with bulk sensitive techniques. These observations strengthen and give a general character to the experimental results obtained with surface sensitive techniques on fullerene compounds. In addition, the transport properties may deviate from the Fermi-liquid behavior above 500 K.     

Analysis of Off-Axial Optical Systems (1)

We have established a new method of aberration analysis for off-axial optical systems which are generalized concepts of co-axial optical systems, by introducing two kinds of newly defined 4-element vectors and expanding these vectors with the help of tensor algebra. In this method, since aberration properties are represented in tensor form, we can easily formulate the aberration relations between different azimuths. We can then evaluate the azimuth dependence of aberration properties in greater detail by separating them into inherent optical properties parts, which are independent of azimuths, and the paraxial ray-tracing part, which includes the expression of the evaluation azimuth.     

First-Principles Study of Magnetic Properties of TM_(13) and TM_(13)@Au_(32) Clusters(TM = Mn,Co)

The structural and magnetic properties of TM_(13 )and TM_(13)@Au_(32 )clusters(TM=Mn,Co)are studied by firstprinciples calculations.We find that the Au_(32 )cluster can tune not only the magnetic moment but also the magnetic coupling properties between the TM atoms of the TM cluster.The Au_(32 )cluster can increase the net magnetic moment of Mn_(13 )clusters while reducing that of Co_(13 )clusters.The interaction between Au and Mn atoms induces more Mn atoms to form spin parallel coupling,resulting in an increase of the total magnetic moment of Mn_(13 )clusters,while for the Co_(13 )clusters,the interaction between Au and Co atoms does not change the magnetic coupling states between the Co atoms,but reduces the magnetic moment of the Co atoms,leading to a decrease of the total magnetic moment of this system.Our findings indicate that the encapsulation of Au_(32 )clusters can not only raise the chemical stability of TM clusters,but also can tune their magnetic coupling properties and magnetic moment,which enables such systems to be widely applied in fields of spintronics and medical science.     

Stimuli-responsive poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(2-vinylpyridine)-b-poly(ethylene oxide) triblock copolymers and complexation with poly(acrylic acid) at low pH

The self-organization of the double hydrophilic triblock copolymer poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(2-vinylpyridine)-b-poly(ethylene oxide), PEO-b-P2VP-b-PEO, was investigated in dilute aqueous solution under several experimental conditions using turbidimetry, as well as static and dynamic light scattering. As a result of the temperature-sensitive properties of the end PEO blocks and the p H-responsive properties of the middle P2VP block, the formation of large star-like micellar nanostructures is observed at high p H, while at low p H, but in the presence of salt and at high temperature, flower-like micelles are formed. Moreover, the viscosimetric and dynamic light scattering studies at low p H revealed that micelle-like nanostructures are formed upon mixing the triblock copolymer with poly(acrylic acid), PAA, due to hydrogen bonding interpolymer complexation.     

Magnetic properties of bulk polycrystalline Pr1-x Ndx（x=0,0.8）FeB permanent magnets

For spin reorientation （SRT）, the applications of sintering NdFeB permanent magnets are limited at low temperature. The sintering PrFeB permanent magnet （PM） presents no SRT and shows excellent magnetic properties at low temperature. The magnetic properties of bulk polycrystalline sintering Prl-xNdxFeB （x = 0 and 0.8 correspond to P42H and N50M respectively） are studied in this paper. The results show that magnetic properties and stability of N50M are better than those of 42H at room temperature. With the decrease of temperature, the parameters ofBr, Hcb, and Hci of P42H present a nearly linear increasing trend; Br and Hcb of N50M first increase and then decline, Hci presents an increasing trend. At 77 K, Br, Hci, and Jr of P42H are increased by 18.7%, 308%, and 17.1% respectively over than those at 300 K; at 120 K, Br, Hci, and Jr of N50M are increased by about 16.19%, 245%, and 12.6% respectively over than those at 300 K. The magnetic properties of P42H are better than those of N50M at low temperature. The sintering PrFeB is the preferred PM in various low-temperature devices.     

Magnetoelectric effects in multiferroic Y-type hexaferrites Ba_(0.3)Sr_(1.7)Co_xMg_(2-x)Fe_(12)O_(22)

Y-type hexaferrites with tunable conical magnetic structures are promising single-phase multiferroics that exhibit large magnetoelectric effects. We have investigated the influence of Co substitution on the magnetoelectric properties in the Y-type hexaferrites Ba(0.3)Sr(1.7)CoxMg(2-x)Fe(12)O(22)(x = 0.0, 0.4, 1.0, 1.6). The spin-induced electric polarization can be reversed by applying a low magnetic field for all the samples. The magnetoelectric phase diagrams of BaBa(0.3)Sr(1.7)CoxMg(2-x)Fe(12)O(22) are obtained based on the measurements of magnetic field dependence of dielectric constant at selected temperatures. It is found that the substitution of Co ions can preserve the ferroelectric phase up to a higher temperature, and thus is beneficial for achieving single-phase multiferroics at room temperature.     

Preparation and characterization of Sr_(0.5)Ba_(0.5)Nb_2O_6 glass-ceramic on piezoelectric properties

We studied the influence of heat treatment time on the optical, thermal, electrical, and mechanical properties of strontium barium niobate(Sr_(1-x)Ba_xNb_2O_6; hereafter SBN) piezoelectric glass-ceramics with tungsten bronze-type structure,which have good piezoelectric properties and are important lead-free piezoelectric materials. We found that the best heat treatment time is 4 h. The properties of the prepared materials are better than that of SBN ceramics and the glass-ceramic growth is faster than the SBN crystal when the heat treatment time of the SBN piezoelectric glass-ceramic is controlled,reducing the preparation costs greatly.

A method for synthesis of seven Pt(II) and Pd(II) complexes with 2,3,5,6-tetrakis(2-yridyl)pyrazine is developed. The spectral-luminescent properties of the complexes in the solid phase and solution are studied at 77 and 298 K. The types of excited electronic states responsible for the luminescence and nonradiative excitation energy relaxation in the complexes are determined.     

ab initio Studies on Molecular Conductor (BEDSe-TTF)2[Fe(CN)5NO]

In this paper the ab initio study using pseudopotential plane wave method with the local spin density functional approximation is presented for the molecular conductor (BEDSe-TTF)₂[Fe(CN)₅NO]. The mean electronic density distributions are obtained, and we find that the extended π orbital of the selenium does not affect the properties of material as assumed in other papers and the "side-by-side" type S...S interaction is the primary interaction between donors. From band structure calculations we analyze the influence of the NO groups on the electronic structure and magnetic properties of molecule. It is shown that the itinerant electrons important to electronic properties in these types of hybrids are delocalized electrons contributed by NO groups, instead of by the 3d electrons of Fe. Additionally, we have found that the localized magnetic moment is also contributed by the NO groups in this molecular conductor. From total energy calculations the molecular structure with the lowest energy is found due to the interaction between split spins, and the particular positions of the NO groups are obtained.     

Magnetic couplings in CsV(2)O(5): a new picture

Concerning its magnetic properties, the layered vanadate CsV(2)O(5) has long been considered as formed by isolated spin-1/2 dimers characterized by a large antiferromagnetic coupling of about 146 K. This interpretation was supported by both magnetic susceptibility measurements and the obvious presence of magnetically active strongly dimerized V(4+) ions. In this work we investigate the magnetic properties of this compound through an extensive use of the broken-symmetry formalism in the framework of density-functional theory. Our calculations demonstrate that the system is built from strongly dimerized alternating chains where the structural and magnetic dimers are distinct from each other.     

Electronic structure and magnetism of La(4)Ni(3)O(8) from first principles

The magnetic and electronic properties of La(4)Ni(3)O(8) are investigated by performing the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method. The C-type antiferromagnetic spin ordering is preferred and a molecular correlated insulating state with high-spin Ni ions is found. Our results have proved that this insulating state is caused by a correlation effect and the strong interlayer interaction. Such strong interlayer coupling results from the high-spin occupation of Ni ions.     

Optical and electronic properties of (GaAs)n / (InAs)n(001) superlattices: LMTO-ASA approach

The optical and electronic properties of (GaAs)_n/(InAs)_n superlattices are calculated by means of LMTO-ASA method. The too small band gap problem of bulk material and superlattices is corrected by adding to the effective potentials an additional external potential that is sharply peaked at the atomic sites. The results show that the optical properties of GaAs/InAs(001) superlattices are about average of that of two bulks of GaAs and InAs.
