1H NMR study of N(CH3)4H(ClF2CCOO)2

The proton spin–lattice relaxation times and ¹H NMR second moments were measured over a wide range of temperature. The results were compared with those of the ¹⁹F NMR relaxation that we obtained earlier. For both nuclear species, the evolution of the longitudinal magnetizations with time is observed to be strongly bi-exponential and were in good quantitative agreement with the cross-relaxation theory.

The thermoelastic properties of [N(CH3)4]2ZnBr4 and [N(CH3)4]2MnBr4

The ferrodistortive phase transition in the bis-tetramethylammonium tetrabromide crystals below room temperature is studied within the framework of the Landau theory. The specific heats of [N(CH₃)₄]₂MnBr₄ and [N(CH₃)₄]₂ZnBr₄ are correctly described down to 40°C below the transition temperature. The phenomenological parameters are determined from calorimetric results, elastic constants and thermal expansion data. Using these coefficients, the monoclinic angle in the ferrodistortive phases is obtained. The anharmonic quantities, such as the isothermal compressibility, calculated from the specific heat data, are in good agreement with the values derived from the elastic measurements.     

势垒高度对Cl+H2(D2)反应的影响

使用三维含时波包方法在两个势能面上研究了Cl+H2(D2)反应．所使用的两个势能面都是从CW(Capecchi和Wener)势能面得到的，第一个是CW势能面的基态面加自旋轨道耦合修正，第二个是CW势能面的基态面没有自旋轨道耦合修正．在这两个势能面上得到了碰撞能从0.1到1.4 eV的积分截面以及反应几率．对于Cl与D2反应，考虑自旋轨道耦合后由于势垒高度的增加反应截面向高能处有一个平移，但Cl与H2反应在低能处的反应活性反而增大了，原因是虽然自旋轨道耦合效应增加了势垒高度，同时减小了势垒宽度，隧道效应更加明显，而隧道效应在低能处起着比较重要的作用，所以反应活性比较大．当碰撞能大于0.7 eV时，没有考虑自旋轨道耦合时势垒高度较低，因而反应活性较大．     

EPR of Co+2 in Mg(CH3COO)2·4H2O

EPR spectra of the ⁵⁹Co⁺² ion in oriented crystals of Mg(CH₃COO)₂·4H₂O have been measured at 9.4 GHz and a temperature of 4.2 K. The data for each of the two metal ion sites per unit cell are well-described by a spin Hamiltonian for $\text{S =}\text{1}\text{2}\text{, I =}\text{7}\text{2}$ with g_x = 6.13, g_y = 389, g_z = 2.49 and A_x = 0.0193, A_y' = 0.075, A_z' = 0.0032 cm^?1. Only the x-axes of the g- and A-tensors coincide. Orientation of the principal directions relative to the crystal axes has been established for the g- and A-tensors at both sites. They are consistent with the weakly ferromagnetic canted antiferromagnetism found in Co(CH₃COO)₂·4H₂O below T_N ?85mK.     

Pyroelectric properties of a ferroelectric single crystal [NH2(CH3)2]3Sb2Cl9 (DMACA)

The pyroelectric properties of DMACA single crystals have been measured in the range 135–293 K, revealing the existence of ferroelectric second order phase transition at T_c = 243 K. The saturation value of spontaneous polarization P_s along a-axis amounts to 6.8 × 10⁻³ Cm⁻² at about 203 K. Critical exponent β = 0.5 has been found in the region 0.5–10 K away from T_c.     

Lattice mediated interactions and ferroelectric anomalies in the crystal (CH3NH3)5Bi2Cl11 (PMACB)

Abstract

A two-sublattice compressible pseudospin model has been constructed to describe the behaviour of the spontaneous polarisation of PMACB in the temperature region comprising the ferroelectric phase transition (T=307K) and the isomorphous anomaly (T= 180 K). A strong coupling of pseudospins with a “pancake” strain ?(2ε₃₃ ? ε₁₁ - ε₂₂) /3 resulting from the comparison of the model with the experimental spontaneous polarisation agrees with the existing data on the dielectric susceptibility, and on the specific heat. The ferroelectric phase transition then turns out to be close to a tricritical point. The numerical values of the parameters of the model show how the ferroelastic phase transition (T=260K) can occur in this crystal without any discernible effect on the specific heat and on the dielectric susceptibility.     

Calculation of the normal modes of CH3OP(s)Cl2 and (CH3O)2P(S)Cl

Frequency and form are deduced for the normal modes. The calculated and observed deformation frequencies of the CH₃O group agree only if the force field of that group has C_S symmetry. The C-O, P-O, P=S, and P-Cl modes are examined for characteristic behavior. The integral intensities of the corresponding bands are reported for trichlorothiophosphate, methyldichlorothiophosphate, dimethylchlorothiophosphate, and trimethylthiophospate.The behavior of the integral intensity of the P=S band is discussed.     

Electrical properties and conduction mechanism of [N(C2H5)4][N(CH3)4]CuCl4 compound

The [N(CH₃)₄][N(C₂H₅)₄]CuCl₄ single crystal has been synthetized in order to determinate the temperatures transition and to study the electrical properties and the conduction mechanism. At room temperature, this compound crystallizes in the tetragonal system with P-42₁m space group. The calorimetric study shows three anomalies at 248, 284 and 326 K. Electrical conduction and dielectrical relaxation mechanisms at various frequencies and temperatures were analyzed by impedance spectroscopy and the equivalent circuit based on the Z-View-software was proposed. The variation of f_p relaxation determinate by the modulus study and σ_dc specific to the AC conductivity as a function of temperature and confirm the all transitions for our sample. The values of the activation energy are determined and compared by those, which are found in the similar compound. Frequencies dependence of alternative current (AC) conductivity is interpreted in terms of Jonscher's law and the conduction mechanisms for each phase are determined with the Elliot's theory.     

Room-Temperature Inductively Coupled Plasma Etching of InP Using Cl2/N2 and Cl2/CH4/H2

We optimize the room-temperature etching of InP using Cl2/CH4/H2 and Cl2/N2 inductively coupled plasma reactive ions. A design of experiment is used in the optimization. The results, in terms of etch rate, surface roughness and etched profile, are presented. These Cl2-based recipes do not require substrate heating and thus can be more cost effectively and widely applied. The Cl2/CH4/H2 process is able to give a higher etch rate （about 850 nm/min） and cleaner surface with less polymer formation compared to the conventional CH4/H2 process. The Cl2/N2 process produces even higher etch rate （as high as 2μm/rain）, but rougher surface with slight sidewall undercut. The Cl2/N2 process also has no polymer formation due to the absence of methane gas. Both the processes give very good selectivity to the silicon dioxide （SiO2） etch mask. The selectivity of InP to the oxide mask （up to 55：1） for the Cl2/N2 process is one of the highest reported so far. The etched structures possess reasonably good sidewall verticality and surface quality comparable to that obtained under elevated temperature condition （〉 200℃）.     

35Cl NQR study of the low temperature transition in ferroelectric (CH3NH3)HgCl3

In addition to the paraelectric-ferroelectric phase transition at T_c = + 62°C there is another low T phase transition in the −152 to −165°C range associated with a sudden change in the NQR spectra.The three ³⁵Cl NQR lines observed in the P3₂ ferroelectric phase of (CH₃NH₃)HgCl₃ below T_c = 62°C suddenly disappear on cooling below −152°C. No lines could be observed between 152 and −165°C. Below this temperature five ³⁵Cl NQR lines appear and remain down to liquid nitrogen temperature.     

Phenomenological analysis of the phase transitions sequence in the ferroelectric crystal (CH3NH3)5Bi2Cl11 (PMACB)

A phenomenological model is proposed to describe the sequence of phase transitions in Pentakis (methylammonium) Undecachlorodibismuthate (111), (CH₃NH₃)₅Bi₂Cl₁₁ (PMACB) crystal on the basis of the recent structural data. The ferroelectric phase transition at 307 K is attributed to the ordering in a sublattice of the methylammonium cations CH₃NH ₃ ⁺ } placed in centrosymmetric sites in the paraelectric phase, whereas the isomorphous anomaly at about 180 K is related to a variation of the order in the sublattice of the remaining CH₃NH ₃ ⁺ } cations. The phenomenological thermodynamic potential is constructed for this system of two nonequivalent sublattices and the numerical values of its coefficients are then estimated from the dielectric, pyroelectric and calorimetric data. The sublattices are found to be weakly coupled near the ferroelectric phase transition. The anomaly at 180 K is interpreted as a continuous trace of a first order phase transition in a field created by the cations already ordered in the ferroelectric phase transition. This is analogous to a cusp A₊₃ in the catastrophes theory. The comparison of the Curie constants with the saturation values of the spontaneous polarization suggests that the sublattices cannot be treated as consisting of simple two-states pseudospins.     

Effect of temperature and high pressure on Mn2+ EPR spectra in K3H(SO4)2 fast-proton conductor

The linewidth ΔH _pp and spin-Hamiltonian parameters under temperature and high hydrostatic pressure by X-band continuous wave electron paramagnetic resonance in the K₃H(SO₄)₂ crystal were studied. Spin-Hamiltonian parameters, direction cosines and coordination of Mn²⁺ ion were determined at room temperature. The pressure at 300?MPa leads to the change of hydrogen bond potential and the transition from double well to single well potential moves about 10?K towards a higher temperature.     

(C5H5NH)2MnxZn1-xCl4和((CH3)4N)2MnxZn1-xCl4中Mn2+的电子顺磁共振

对于发绿光的四面体化合物(C5H5NH)2MnCl4和((CH3)4N)2MnCl4人们已做了广泛的研究。但是它们的电子顺磁共振谱仅表现为一些很宽的带而没有精细和超精细结构。在同晶型的(C5H5NH)2MnxZn1-xCl4或((CH3)4N)2MnxZn1-xCl4中掺入低浓度的Mn2+(x=1%),我们可以由(g～值的)角度变化导出自旋哈密顿量的全组参数来。这种四面体的晶格发生了严重的畸变且(在所有的情况下)产生一种C1-对称。     

Effect of hydrostatic pressure on the phase transition of ferroelectric PbTiO3

The effect of hydrostatic pressure on the dielectric constant of the Nb-doped lead titanate ceramics was measured up to 60 kbar at room temperature. From the previously observed pressure dependence of lattice parameters and the present results, it is concluded that the tetragonality decreases linearly with a slope of ?7.6×10^?4/kbar and that the pressure dependence of the tetragonal-cubic transition temperature is ?8.4K/kbar.     

Dielectric relaxation,modulus behavior and thermodynamic properties in [N(CH3)3H]2ZnCl4

[N(CH₃)₃H]₂ZnCl₄ has been analyzed by X-ray powder diffraction patterns, differential scanning calorimetry and impedance spectroscopy. The [N(CH₃)₃H]₂ZnCl₄ hybrid compound is obtained by slow evaporation at room temperature and found to crystallize in the orthorhombic system with Pnma space group. Five-phase transitions at low temperature were detected by differential scanning calorimetry measurements. The analysis of Nyquist plots has revealed the contribution of three electrically active regions corresponding to the bulk mechanism, distribution of grain boundaries and electrode processes. The dielectric relaxation is described by a non-Debye model. The study of the dielectric constants ?′, ?″ and loss tangent tan (δ) with frequency exhibits a distribution of relaxation times. The complex modulus plots have confirmed the presence of grains and grain boundaries as well as a non-Debye type of relaxation in the material. Thermodynamic parameters such as the free energy for dipole relaxation ΔF, the enthalpy ΔH and the change in entropy ΔS have been determined with the help of the Eyring theory.
