Rovibrational spectrum and potential energy surface of the N2-N2O van der Waals complex

The rovibrational spectrum of the N₂-N₂O van der Waals complex has been recorded in the N₂O ν₁ region (∼1285 cm⁻¹) using a tunable diode laser spectrometer to probe a pulsed supersonic slit jet. The observed transitions together with the data observed previously in the N₂O ν₃ region are analyzed using a Watson S-reduced asymmetric rotor Hamiltonian. The rotational and centrifugal distortion constants for the ground and excited vibrational states are accurately determined. The band-origin of the spectrum is determined to be 1285.73964(14) cm⁻¹. A restricted two-dimensional intermolecular potential energy surface for a planar structure of N₂-N₂O has been calculated at the CCSD(T) level of theory with the aug-cc-pVDZ basis sets and a set of mid-bond functions. With the intermolecular distance fixed at the ground state value R = 3.6926 Å, the potential has a global minimum with a well depth of 326.64 cm⁻¹ at θ_N2 = 11.0° and θ_N2O = 84.3° and has a saddle point with a barrier height of 204.61 cm⁻¹ at θ_N2 = 97.4° and θ_N2O = 92.2°, where θ_N2(θ_N2O) is the enclosed angle between the N-N axis (N-N-O axis) and the intermolecular axis.     

Microwave spectrum of (CH3)3CCN-SO3

Eight rotational transitions of the complex (CH₃)₃CCN-SO₃ have been recorded using pulsed-nozzle Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy and a series of ab initio calculations has been performed. The complex is a symmetric top with free or nearly free internal rotation of the SO₃ and (CH₃)₃CCN subunits. The nitrogen-sulfur bond distance is determined to be 2.394(19) Å. Calculations at the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ level/basis, which are in excellent agreement with the experimental results, give a binding energy of 11.0 kcal/mol relative to (CH₃)₃CCN and SO₃. Physical properties of the system, including N-S bond length, N-S-O angle, binding energy, and the degree of electron transfer (obtained from Townes and Dailey analysis of the ¹⁴N nuclear quadrupole coupling constant) are compared with those of similar complexes. The proton affinity of the base is a useful parameter for ordering complexes in the series.     

Chemical quenching of positronium in Fe2O3/Al2O3 catalysts

Fe₂O₃/Al₂O₃ catalysts were prepared by solid state reaction method using α-Fe₂O₃ and γ-Al₂O₃ nano powders. The microstructure and surface properties of the catalyst were studied using positron lifetime and coincidence Doppler broadening annihilation radiation measurements. The positron lifetime spectrum shows four components. The two long lifetimes τ₃ and τ₄ are attributed to positronium annihilation in two types of pores distributed inside Al₂O₃ grain and between the grains, respectively. With increasing Fe₂O₃ content from 3 wt% to 40 wt%, the lifetime τ₃ keeps nearly unchanged, while the longest lifetime τ₄ shows decrease from 96 ns to 64 ns. Its intensity decreases drastically from 24% to less than 8%. The Doppler broadening S parameter shows also a continuous decrease. Further analysis of the Doppler broadening spectra reveals a decrease in the p-Ps intensity with increasing Fe₂O₃ content, which rules out the possibility of spin-conversion of positronium. Therefore the decrease of τ₄ is most probably due to the chemical quenching reaction of positronium with Fe ions on the surface of the large pores.     

Microwave spectrum of the heterodimers: CH3OH-CO2 and CH3OH-H2CO

Molecular complexes, dimers and heterodimers often show interesting structures, large amplitude internal motions and orientations for reaction coordinates. These properties were the motivations for the current study of the rotational spectra of the heterodimers, CH₃OH-CO₂ and CH₃OH-H₂CO, in a pulsed nozzle Fourier-transform microwave (FTMW) spectrometer. In addition to studying the normal isotopic forms, several isotopologues containing ¹³C or deuterium substituted atoms of each heterodimer were analyzed in order to obtain structural data of the complexes. All species showed splittings from internal rotation of the methyl group and splittings on the b-type transitions of the CH₃OH-H₂CO species suggesting rotation of the H₂CO group between equivalent structural forms. Stark effect measurements on each of the parent species provided dipole moment components. Theoretical ab initio results are compared to the experimentally determined molecular parameters.     

Rovibrational spectrum of the Ne-N2O van der Waals complex in the 1285 cm region

The rovibrational spectrum of the Ne-N₂O van der Waals complex has been recorded in the symmetric stretching mode region of the N₂O monomer (∼1285 cm⁻¹) using a tunable diode laser spectrometer in conjunction with an astigmatic multi-pass cell and a pulsed supersonic slit jet. The spectra of both ²⁰Ne-N₂O and ²²Ne-N₂O isotopomers are assigned and analyzed using a Watson S-reduced asymmetric-rotor Hamiltonian. The rotational and centrifugal constants for the excited vibrational state are accurately determined. The band-origin of the spectrum is determined to be ν₀ = 1285.12251(18) cm⁻¹ for ²⁰Ne-N₂O and 1285.12363(27) cm⁻¹ for ²²Ne-N₂O, which shows a blue-shift of 0.21921 cm⁻¹ for ²⁰Ne-N₂O and 0.22033 cm⁻¹ for ²²Ne-N₂O from that of the N₂O monomer, respectively.

The Raman spectra and cross-sections of the ν2 band of H2O, D2O, and HDO

We report the experimental Raman spectra of the ν₂ band of H₂O, D₂O, and HDO in the vapor phase at room temperature. A complete interpretation of the Raman intensities is carried out employing the variational rovibrational wavefunctions obtained from a Hamiltonian in Radau coordinates and an ab initio polarizability surface at 514.5 nm. We show the importance of the rotation-vibration coupling to obtain the correct line intensities. Several tables with the assignments of the individual rotational-vibrational transitions and their Raman scattering strengths are reported. From these tables, the ν₂ Raman spectra can be simulated up to 2000 K for H₂O, and up to 300 K for D₂O and HDO.

XPS investigation of diffusion of two-layer ZrO2/SiO2 and SiO2/ZrO2 sol–gel films

Two-layer ZrO₂/SiO₂ and SiO₂/ZrO₂ films were deposited on K9 glass substrates by sol–gel dip coating method. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) technique was used to investigate the diffusion of ZrO₂/SiO₂ and SiO₂/ZrO₂ films. To explain the difference of diffusion between ZrO₂/SiO₂ and SiO₂/ZrO₂ films, porous ratio and surface morphology of monolayer SiO₂ and ZrO₂ films were analyzed by using ellipsometry and atomic force microscopy (AFM). We found that for the ZrO₂/SiO₂ films there was a diffusion layer with a certain thickness and the atomic concentrations of Si and Zr changed rapidly; for the SiO₂/ZrO₂ films, the atomic concentrations of Si and Zr changed relatively slowly, and the ZrO₂ layer had diffused through the entire SiO₂ layer. The difference of diffusion between ZrO₂/SiO₂ and SiO₂/ZrO₂ films was influenced by the microstructure of SiO₂ and ZrO₂.

Eu掺杂量对锐钛矿相TiO2电子寿命和吸收光谱影响的第一性原理研究

采用基于密度泛函理论框架下的第一性原理平面波超软赝势方法,建立了不同Eu掺杂量的锐钛矿相TiO₂超胞模型,计算了其态密度、差分电荷密度、能带结构和吸收光谱.结果发现:掺杂后Eu在TiO₂的禁带中产生杂质能级.通过对比两种不同Eu掺杂量(1.39at%和2.08at%)下的锐钛矿TiO₂的能带结构,发现掺杂量越高,杂质能级越向深能级方向移动,说明电子复合率随杂质浓度增加而增加,即电子寿命变小,同时吸收光谱红移越显著,强度越强.根据实际需要,可在锐钛矿TiO₂中适量掺杂Eu,在适当减少电子寿命情况下,使吸收光谱红移.

A facile synthesis of monodisperse CoFe2O4/SiO2 nanoparticles

Aminated-CoFe₂O₄/SiO₂ magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared from primary silica particles using modified StÖber method. By optimizing the preparation conditions, monodisperse CoFe₂O₄/SiO₂ NPs with high amino groups’ density were obtained, which is necessary for enzyme immobilization. TEM confirm that the sample is a core/shell structure. These aminated-CoFe₂O₄/SiO₂ NPs have narrow size distributions with a mean size of about 60 nm. Moreover, the aminated-CoFe₂O₄/SiO₂ NPs can be easily dispersed in aqueous medium. The experimental results also show that the NPs have superparamagnetism, indicating that the aminated-CoFe₂O₄/SiO₂ NPs can be used as an effective carrier for the enzyme immobilization.     

Influence of calcining temperature on photoluminescence and thermal quenching in europium-doped Y2SiO5 using the MOD process

The crystalline Eu_0.25Y_1.75SiO₅ (EYSO) fine powders were prepared using metallorganic decomposition process, in which the pure X₁- and X₂-Y₂SiO₅ phases were obtained by calcining at temperatures from 850°C to 1600°C. The influence of calcining temperature on photoluminescence (PL) and thermal quenching were systematically investigated from room temperature to 573 K for the first time. As a consequence, the X₂-EYSO was higher in light emission intensities than the X₁-EYSO, but the X₁-EYSO possessed better temperature dependence of PL. The phase structure had a significant effect on the light emission intensity and energy as well as its temperature characteristics in the EYSO.

A Theoretical Study of ãA2 CH2

The potential energy surface and dipole moment surfaces of the ã⁴A₂ electronic state of CH₂⁺ are calculated ab initio using an augmented correlation-consistent polarized valence quadruple-ζ (aug-cc-pVQZ) basis set, with the incorporation of dynamical correlation using the coupled cluster method with single and double excitations and perturbatively connected triple excitations [CCSD(T)]. We use these surfaces in the MORBID program system to calculate rotation and rotation-vibration term values for ã-state CH₂⁺, CD⁺₂, and CHD⁺ and to simulate the rotation and rotation-vibration absorption spectrum of CH₂⁺ in the ã⁴A₂ electronic state. Our work is motivated by studies of CH₂⁺ that use the Coulomb explosion imaging technique and by the goal of predicting spectra that may be obtained from discharge sources. Although the ã state is the lowest-lying excited state above the X?/Ã ground state pair, it turns out to be relatively high-lying, and we determine that T_e(ã)=30447.5 cm⁻¹. The equilibrium bond angle for ã-state CH₂⁺ is only 77.1°; as a result the asymmetric top κ value is close to 0, and the molecule is equally far from the oblate and prolate symmetric top limits in this electronic state.
