Fine structure and isotope shift of the 3s4d 3 D-3s3p 3 P, 3s5d 3 D-3s3p 3 P and 3p 2 3 P-3s3p 3 P Transitions of MgI

Summary We report the measurements of the³ D(3s4d)-³ P(3s3p)³ D(3s5d)-³ P(3s3p), and³ P(3p ²)-³ P(3s3p) transition frequency of MgI, the fine-structure separation and isotope shift between²⁴Mg and²⁶Mg. The measurements have been performed in a metastable atomic beam; a good agreement is found for data already existing in the literature. The accuracy of the measurements reported in this paper is mainly limited by the Doppler broadening of theI ₂ transitions used as a reference and by the precision in the knowledge of the related wavelengths.     

The gas phase infrared band contours of s-triazine and s-triazine-d3: The fundamentals of C3N3H3 and C3N3D3 and some overtone and combination bands of C3N3H3

The systematic application of band contour techniques to account for most of the observed features of the ir spectra of s-triazine and s-triazine-d₃ have been made as well as a critique as to the limitations of such methods. The experimental and computer methods used to study the gas phase infrared band contours of s-triazine and s-triazine-d₃ are out-lined. Contours of the five E′ fundamentals of s-triazine have been recorded under moderate resolution and analyzed to give the Coriolis constants $\text{ζ}{}_{\mathrm{i}}{}^{\mathrm{z}}$, i = 6–10. The effects of l-resonance are very apparent for ν₈ and ν₉, in the form of holes in the Q branches of these bands. Under the highest resolution available, ν₆ and ν₁₀ also show l-resonance effects. Values of the l-doubling constants $\text{q}{}_{\mathrm{i}}{}^{\mathrm{(+)}}$ were obtained for these four fundamentals. One of the parallel A₂″ fundamentals of C₃H₃N₃ (ν₁₂) has also been studied. It lies close to ν₁₀(E′) and an A × E type of second-order Coriolis resonance may be the cause of the intensity enhancement observed in the inner wings of the ν₁₂ and ν₁₀ bands. Hot bands of the type (ν_i + nν₁₄ ? nν₁₄) have been observed in the contours of ν₈, ν₁₀, and ν₁₂. This is felt to be responsible for the large difference between our observed zeta sum (?1.30) and the theoretical sum (?1.00).The gas phase infrared band contours of the five E′ and 2A₂″ fundamentals of C₃N₃D₃ have also been recorded under moderate resolution. From P-R separations and by computer simulation of the contours, values of the Coriolis constants $\text{ζ}{}_{\mathrm{i}}{}^{\mathrm{z}}$ have been obtained for the E′ modes. The effects of l-resonance have been observed for ν₈(E′) and ν₁₀(E′) and values of the l-doubling constants $\text{q}{}_{\mathrm{i}}{}^{\mathrm{(+)}}$ have been estimated. An extensive series of hot bands of the type (ν₁₂ + nν₁₄ ? nν₁₄) has been observed in the contour of the ν₁₂ (A₂″) fundamental. The mass effect on the Coriolis constants has been discussed.Infrared band contours of the overtone 2ν₇ and seven degenerate E′ combination bands of C₃N₃H₃ have been recorded under moderate resolution. Analysis of these contours using the P-R separation method and computer simulation of the contours has given values of $\text{ζ}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>eff</mtext>}}{}^{\mathrm{z}}$ for these bands. Fermi resonance between 2ν₇ and ν₆ has been analyzed. The importance of considering both the observed contour as well as the observed frequency when assigning higher tone bands is illustrated.     

Dielectric investigations of solid solutions SrTiO3-KTaO3 and SrTiO3-KNbO3

The temperature dependences of the dielectric constant and dielectric hysteresis loops in ceramic samples of (1 ? x)SrTiO_3?x KNbO₃ and (1 ? x)SrTiO_3?x KTaO₃ (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.3) solid solutions prepared using different heat treatments have been investigated. Phase diagrams of the studied solid solutions have been constructed in the T-x coordinates. It has been shown that, after quenching of samples (spontaneous cooling at room temperature after long-term heating at the sintering temperature of the ceramic samples), the temperature of the induced phase transition increases because of the weakening of random electric fields associated with nonisovalent impurities due to their “frozen” nonequilibrium redistribution. For small concentrations x, strong dielectric relaxation is observed in the temperature range of 150–250 K. A model of relaxing centers, which is based on the local charge compensation of heterovalent impurities, has been proposed.     

Infrared spectra of matrix isolated BH3NH3, BD3ND3, and BH3ND3

The infrared spectra of ammonia-borane, BH₃NH₃, and two of its deuterated isotropic species, BD₃ND₃ and BH₃ND₃, isolated in argon matrix at liquid hydrogen temperature have been measured. Well resolved bands for these three isotopic species have been observed for all the fundamentals. A complete frequency assignment based on C₃v molecular symmetry has been made. A set of force constants have been calculated from the data for the two isotopes BH₃NH₃ and BD₃ND₃ using a valence force field. The agreement between experiment and frequencies calculated from these force constants for the mixed isotopic species, BH₃ND₃, substantiates the present assignment.     

Modulated magnetic structures of ErPb3, HoPb3, ErTl3 and HoTl3

Neutron diffraction experiments have been carried out on the magnetically ordered phases of ErPb₃, HoPb₃, ErTl₃ and HoTl₃. The magnetic moments were found to be sinusoidally modulated with a propagation vector of (0, 0.2, 0.5) for the Pb-compounds and (0.38, 0.38, 0.16) for the Tl-compounds.Work supported by the Bundesministerium für Forschung und Technologie

Improvement of Photoluminescence of Perovskite CH_3NH_3Pb I_3 by Adding Additional CH_3NH_3I during Grinding

The organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite CH_3NH_3PbI_3 has been a good candidate for many optoelectronic applications such as light-emitting diodes due to its unique properties.Optimizing the optical properties of the CH_3NH_3PbI_3 material to improve the device performance is a hot topic.Herein,a new strategy is proposed to enhance the light emission of CH_3NH_3PbI_3 phosphor effectively.By adding the reactant CH_3NH_3I powder in an appropriate proportion and simply grinding,the emission intensity of CH_3NH_3PbI_3 is greatly improved.The advantages of the proposed method are swiftness,simplicity and reproducibility,and no requirement for a complex organic ligand.The mechanism of this phenomenon is revealed by x-ray diffraction,scanning electron microscopy,energy dispersive spectroscopy,photoluminescence,and temperature-dependent photoluminescence.This study offers a unique insight for optimizing the optical properties of halide perovskite materials.

Hyperfine suppression of 2 3 S 1--3 3 P J transitions in 3He

Two anomalously weak transitions within the 2(3)S_(1)--3(3)P_(J) manifolds in 3He have been identified. Their transition strengths are measured to be 1000 times weaker than that of the strongest transition in the same group. This dramatic suppression of transition strengths is due to the dominance of the hyperfine interaction over the fine-structure interaction. An alternative selection rule based on IS coupling (where the nuclear spin is first coupled to the total electron spin) is proposed. This provides qualitative understanding of the transition strengths. It is shown that the small deviations from the IS coupling model are fully accounted for by an exact diagonalization of the strongly interacting states.     

Luminescence properties of Nd3+, Sm3+ and Eu3+ intercalated CdPS3

Nd³⁺, Sm³⁺ and Eu³⁺ have been intercalated by cation exchange into CdPS₃. The photoluminescence and IR spectra show the creation of cadmium cation vacancies. Crystal field analysis indicates that the rare earths have entered the intralamellar vacancies and formed a complex defect center with C₂ or lower symmetry.     

CH_3NH_3 Formed by Electron Injection at Heterojunction Inducing Peculiar Properties of CH_3NH_3PbI_3 Material

The effect of formed CH_3NH_3 at the heterojunction on properties of CH_3NH_3PbI_3 material is investigated based on experiment and theoretical calculation. Our calculation results show that the giant dielectric constant, anomalous hysteresis and long-lasting polarization for CH_3NH_3PbI_3 originate from the formed CH_3NH_3 at the heterojunction. It is found that the induced weak EPS by the reorientation of CH_3NH_3 sub-group along the built-in electric field enables us to effectively increase the ordering of entire lead-halide framework. In addition, the heterojunction has an advantage of channel separation between carrier transport and electron diffusion. These properties of the heterojunction are the main origin of the high efficiency of CH_3NH_3PbI_3 solar cells.     

Scintillation properties of Ce3+-doped YCl3 and YBr3

The dependence of the scintillation properties of Ce³⁺-doped YCl₃ and YBr₃ on activator concentration (0.5, 1 and 2 mol%) has been studied. The radioluminescence spectra of both materials contain asymmetric bands with maxima located at 3.13 eV (383 nm) for YCl₃:Ce³⁺ and 2.84 eV (422 nm) for YBr₃:Ce³⁺. The scintillation pulse decay curves for both materials are described by two components with decay constants of 37 and 640 ns for YCl₃:Ce³⁺ and 36 and 450 ns for YBr₃:Ce³⁺, the fractions of the faster component being 86 and 79 per cent, respectively. The dependences of the light yield of the studied materials on Ce³⁺ concentration pass through a maximum near 1 mol% of the activator, and the maximum light yields (relative to NaI:Tl) are 8700 photons per MeV for YCl₃:Ce³⁺ and 20,600 photons per MeV for YBr₃:Ce³⁺.     

Dielectric properties of solid solutions PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3-SrTiO3

Ceramic samples of the solid solutions PbMg_1/3Nb_2/3O₃-SrTiO₃ are synthesized. The dielectric properties are studied and a phase diagram is constructed. The results obtained are discussed in terms of ideas concerning relaxor ferroelectrics for solid solutions on the PMN side and from the standpoint of potential ferroelectrics on the SrTiO₃ side. The introduction of SrTiO₃ into PMN gradually degrades relaxor properties, and the introduction of PMN into SrTiO₃ does not result in initiation of the ferroelectric phase transition, possibly because of the appearance of random fields in the lattice. The possibility of practical applications of the synthesized system is also discussed. Fiz. Tverd. Tela (St. Petersburg) 41, 1091–1095 (June 1999)

The methods for few-body physics are introduced to extract structures of low-lying states of threeatom clusters of neon, argon and krypton. Similarities among the states have been found, and accordingly a number of rotational bands have been identified. Each band is characterized by a specific mode of internal oscillation. The decisive effect of symmetry has been emphasized.     

E-T phase diagrams of a solid solution of the multicomponent PbZn1/3Nb2/3O3-PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3-PbNi1/3Nb2/3O3-PbTiO3 system near the morphotropic phase boundary

The specific features of the dielectric and pyroelectric responses of a solid solution in the barium-doped multicomponent yPbZn_1/3Nb_2/3O₃-mPbMg_1/3Nb_2/3O₃-nPbNi_1/3Nb_2/3O₃-xPbTiO₃ system of the composition y = 0.0982, m = 0.4541, n = 0.1477, and x = 0.3 near the morphotropic phase boundary have been investigated. It has been assumed that the maxima revealed in the dependences of the reversible permittivity on the electric field strength with both the forward and backward changes in the field (E ₌) are associated with the induced phase transition. Based on the experimental results, the E-T phase diagrams are constructed in the temperature range from ?100 to 150°C for different temperature-field regimes: (i) variation in the electric field E ₌ at a fixed temperature of the sample and (ii) variation in the temperature of the sample at a constant value of E ₌. It has been found that there is a singular point in the E-T phase diagram and that, in the vicinity of this point, the dielectric and pyroelectric responses of the studied ceramics exhibit specific features.

Far infrared optical properties of polycrystalline NaClO3, KClO3, NaBrO3 and KBrO3

The resonant frequencies, damping constants and oscillator strengths of far infrared lattice vibrations of polycrystalline NaClO₃, KClO₃, NaBrO₃ and KBrO₃ have been obtained through classical dispersion (CD) analysis of transmission data. Space group analysis has been applied for attribution assignments and to ascertain the translational and rotational character of the respective lattice bands. The damping constants were found to be unusually large indicating short lifetimes of the excited states in spite of an apparent absence of phonon-phonon coupling. The CD analysis of the spectra also provide reliable values of oscillator strength and resonant frequency.
