The microwave spectrum,dipole moment and ring planarity of 1,2-dimethylenecyclobutane

The microwave spectrum of 1,2-dimethylenecyclobutane has been studied in the range 26.5–40 GHz using a Hewlett-Packard 8400C Stark-modulated spectrometer. The rigid rotor constants have been derived for the ground state (in MHz: A = 4925.22, B = 4089.88, C = 2301.67) and four excited states of the ring-puckering vibration. That the ring skeleton is planar is indicated by the smooth variation of the rotational constants with vibrational state and by the value of 1/2(I_a + I_b ? I_c) which is consistent with only 4 hydrogen atoms out of the plane of the remaining atoms.Analysis of the Stark effect yields a dipole moment lying along the b-axis; μ_b = 0.457 ± 0.002D. A physically reasonable set of structural parameters which reproduce the ground state rotational constants has been derived by adjustment of the carbon skeleton parameters by a diagnostic least-squares procedure.     

One-dimensional and two-dimensional quantum systems on carbon nanotube bundles

We report the first measurement of the structure of 4He atoms adsorbed on bundles of single-walled carbon nanotubes. Neutron diffraction techniques and nanotube samples closed at the end were used. At low coverage, 4He forms a 1D, single line lattice along the grooves between two nanotubes on the surface of the nanotube bundles. As coverage is increased, additional lines of 1D lattices form along the grooves. This is followed by an incommensurate, 2D monolayer covering the whole nanotube bundle surface. The lattice constants of these 1D and 2D systems are largely independent of filling once a single 1D line is formed. No occupation of the interstitial channels between nanotubes is observed in the present sample.     

Magnetic and electronic properties of two-dimensional metal-organic frameworks TM_3(C_2NH)_(12)

The ferromagnetism of two-dimensional(2 D) materials has aroused great interest in recent years, which may play an important role in the next-generation magnetic devices. Herein, a series of 2 D transition metal-organic framework materials(TM-NH MOF, TM = Sc–Zn) are designed, and their electronic and magnetic characters are systematically studied by means of first-principles calculations. Their structural stabilities are examined through binding energies and abinitio molecular dynamics simulations. Their optimized lattice constants are correlated to the central TM atoms. These 2 D TM-NH MOF nanosheets exhibit various electronic and magnetic performances owing to the effective charge transfer and interaction between TM atoms and graphene linkers. Interestingly, Ni-and Zn-NH MOFs are nonmagnetic semiconductors(SM) with band gaps of 0.41 e V and 0.61 e V, respectively. Co-and Cu-NH MOFs are bipolar magnetic semiconductors(BMS), while Fe-NH MOF monolayer is a half-semiconductor(HSM). Furthermore, the elastic strain could tune their magnetic behaviors and transformation, which ascribes to the charge redistribution of TM-3 d states. This work predicts several new 2 D magnetic MOF materials, which are promising for applications in spintronics and nanoelectronics.     

基于核运动效应下的H同位素双原子分子的解析势能函

在加入核运动效应修正下的Born-Oppenheimer近似电子能量的基础上, 采用QCISD(T)/ aug-cc-pvqz方法计算出H同位素双原子分子（H₂, HD, HT, D₂, DT,T₂）的势能函数参数, 获得体现H同位素分子质量差异下的势能函数。 并在此基础上导出H同位素分子的力常数和光谱数据。 同时对于OH, OD和OT分子采用QCISD/aug-cc-pvtz方法计算, 同样获得了这些分子对应的势能函数、 力常数和光谱数据。Based on the correction of the electron energy under Born Oppenheimer approximation using nuclear motion effect, the parameters of potential energy functions for hydrogen isotopic diatomic molecules (H₂, HD,HT,D₂, DT,T₂) are calculated with QCISD (T) method and aug-cc-pvqz basis set,and those potential energy functions that indicate the differences from the masses of hydrogen isotopic atoms are obtained. The force constants and spectroscopic data of those molecules are calculated as well. The potential energy functions, force constants, and spectroscopic data of the isotopic diatomic molecules OH, OD,and OT are also derived using QCISD method and aug-cc-pvtz basis set.     

Investigations on molecular constants of the CD（X^2∏） radical and elastic collisions between ground-state C and D atoms at low temperatures

The potential energy curve of the CD(X~2Π) radical is obtained using the coupled-cluster singles-doublesapproximate-triples [CCSD(T)] theory in combination with the correlation-consistent quintuple basis set augmented with diffuse functions,aug-cc-pV5Z.The potential energy curve is fitted to the Murrell-Sorbie function,which is used to determine the spectroscopic parameters.The obtained D0,De,Re,ωe,ωeχe,αe and Be values are 3.4971 eV,3.6261 eV,0.11197 nm,2097.661 cm 1,34.6963 cm 1,0.2083 cm 1 and 7.7962 cm 1,respectively,which conform almost perfectly to the available measurements.With the potential obtained at the UCCSD(T)/aug-cc-pV5Z level of theory,a total of 24 vibrational states have been predicted for the first time when J = 0 by solving the radial Schr¨odinger equation of nuclear motion.The complete vibrational levels,the classical turning points,the inertial rotation constants and centrifugal distortion constants are reproduced from the CD(X~2Π) potential when J = 0,and are in excellent agreement with the available measurements.The total and the various partial-wave cross sections are calculated for the elastic collisions between the ground-state C and D atoms at energies from 1.0×10 11 to 1.0×10 4 a.u.when the two atoms approach each other along the CD(X~2Π) potential energy curve.Only one shape resonance is found in the total elastic cross sections,and the resonant energy is 8.36×10 6 a.u.The results show that the shape of the total elastic cross section is mainly dominated by the s partial wave at very low temperatures.Because of the weak shape resonances coming from higher partial waves,most of them are passed into oblivion by the strong total elastic cross sections.     

Dielectric constants of Zr silicates: a first-principles study

Using density-functional theory, we compute the optical and static dielectric constants for a set of Zr silicates modeled by various SiO2 crystals, with Zr atoms substitutional to Si, and by an amorphous structure. We then derive a microscopic scheme that relates the dielectric constants to structural units centered on Si and Zr atoms through the definition of characteristic parameters. Applied to amorphous (ZrO2)(x)(SiO2)(1-x), these schemes describe the observed dependence of the dielectric constants on the Zr concentration and highlight the role of ZrO6 units.     

Rotational Spectroscopy and Ring-Puckering Conformation of 3-Hydroxytetrahydrofuran

The microwave spectrum of 3-hydroxytetrahydrofuran was recorded using a Fourier transform microwave spectrometer; the rotational constants (MHz) are: A = 5581.8230(7), B = 3638.8316(7), and C = 2924.7410(7). Microwave spectra for four (13)C isotopic species were recorded in natural abundance. Stark effect measurements were used to determine the projections of the dipole moment on the principal inertial axes: μ(a) = 0.956(1) D, μ(b) = 0.875(2) D, μ(c) = 1.050(2) D, and μ(tot) = 1.667(2) D. The internal coordinates of the carbon and oxygen atoms were least-squares fit to the 15 moments of inertia, and the best-fit structure is a C(4')-endo envelope ring conformation, in good agreement with ab initio calculations (MP2/6-31Gdaggerdagger).

Optoelectronic properties of two-dimensional GaN adsorbed with H,N and O: A first-principle study

In this paper, we have investigated optoelectronic properties of two-dimensional GaN adsorbed with non-metal atoms: H, N and O based on first-principle. We find that adsorption of H, N and O atom on 2D GaN is achieved by chemisorption, and the most stable adsorption site is at the top of N atom. Band structure of 2D GaN after adsorbing H atom moves to low energy region and two-dimensional GaN is transformed into an n-type semiconductor. After adsorption of N atom, a new impurity energy appears at the Fermi level, and N adatom could induce magnetism into 2D GaN. Static dielectric constants of 2D GaN increase and adsorption spectrums have extend to infrared band when adsorbing H and N. Strong reflection peaks and strong adsorption peaks after adsorption are located at deep ultraviolet range, which is beneficial for optoelectronic application in the deep ultraviolet. Specifically, two-dimensional GaN adsorbed with H atom is more conducive to manufacture of nano-optoelectronic devices.

Crystal structure,magnetizations of sublattices,and the spin-reorientation transition in the Er<Subscript>2</Subscript>Fe<Subscript>17</Subscript>N<Subscript>2.18</Subscript> compound

The structural and magnetic properties of the Er₂Fe₁₇N_2.18 compound have been studied for polycrystalline samples by neutron diffraction in the temperature range 4–700 K. The experimental temperature dependences of the magnetization of the erbium and iron atoms have been compared with those calculated within the molecular-field theory. With the use of the known model, the spin-reorientation transition has been interpreted and the numerical values of the first constants of the magnetic anisotropy for the Er and Fe atoms have been determined.     

Positronium reactions with diamagnetic organic molecules

Rate constants for the interaction of ortho-positronium atoms with a series of diamagnetic organic compounds have been determined. Nitrated aromatic molecules interact far more readily with ortho-positronium than do nitrated aliphatic molecules. The observed rate constants for the aromatic molecules show a distinct dependency on the nature of the substituents and their relative positions in the aromatic ring. This dependency may be attributed to steric interactions which influence the relative electron charge density on the atoms in the molecule and alter the molecular energy levels.

TiC lattice dynamics from ab initio calculations

Ab initio calculations and a direct method have been applied to derive the phonon dispersion curves and phonon density of states for the TiC crystal. The results are compared and found to be in a good agreement with the experimental neutron scattering data. The force constants have been determined from the Hellmann-Feynman forces induced by atomic displacements in a supercell. The calculated phonon density of states suggests that vibrations of Ti atoms form acoustic branches, whereas the motion of C atoms is confined to optic branches. The elastic constants have been found using the deformation method and compared with the results obtained from acoustic phonon slopes. Received 23 February 1998     

Rotation-translation coupling effect on intermolecular forces of single crystal of fcc and hcp argon alloys

Rotation-translation coupling (RTC) effects on the intermolecular forces in the form of elastic constants of single crystals of Ar(O₂) alloy for the fcc and hcp structure have been studied. The use of dynamical interactions of the O₂ impurity with host atoms indicated that RTC plays an important role in the intermolecular forces.     

Adsorption studies of Pd on MoS2

Adsorption of Pd on the basal plane of MoS₂ layer compound has been studied in an UHV system with AES, LEED and WF measurements. For substrate temperatures at or below 500 K the deposited Pd formed initially 2D islands. Upon further Pd deposition a number of the 2D islands, depending on temperature, changed to 3D particles. At 700 K Pd grew to 3D particles from the early stages of its deposition. Heating of Pd-covered MoS₂ at RT caused a change of the 2D islands to 3D particles which coalesce to larger and fewer. The Pd adatoms did not interact with the surface S atoms as Fe does. The Pd particles thus remain clean on MoS₂ which is promising in heterogeneous catalysis. At 1200 K a small amount of Pd atoms remained about uniformly distributed and submerged under the S atoms of the outmost layer of MoS₂.     

Adsorption and two-body recombination of atomic hydrogen on 3He-4He mixture films

We present the first systematic measurement of the binding energy E(a) of hydrogen atoms to the surface of saturated 3He- 4He mixture films at temperatures 70-400 mK. E(a) is found to decrease almost linearly from 1.14(1) K down to 0.39(1) K, when the population of the ground surface state of 3He grows from zero to 6x10(14) cm(-2), yielding the value 1.2(1)x10(-15) K cm(2) for the mean-field parameter of H- 3He interaction in 2D. Measuring by ESR the rate constants K(aa) and K(ab) for second-order recombination of hydrogen atoms in hyperfine states a and b, we find the ratio K(ab)/K(aa) to be independent of the 3He content and to grow with temperature.     

Vibrational properties of the adsorbed monolayer on face-centered cubic crystals

Calculations of mean-square displacements 〈u²〉 of the atoms in adsorbed monolayers on fcc crystals are presented and compared with LEED experimental results. This text is restricted to the case of a C(2 × 2) adsorbed layer on a (100) surface [experimental case of Ni(100) with adsorbed sulfur, sodium, cesium or oxygen]. 〈u²〉's perpendicular to and parallel to a (100) surface are calculated for the adsorbed atoms and the atoms of the first surface layer of the crystal. The values obtained are compared with those for a clean (100) surface and the volume of the crystal. Every possibility for force constants between adsorbate and substrate atoms is examined. It is shown that the measurement of 〈u²〉 perpendicular to the (100) surface yields the adsorbate-substrate force constants and that 〈u²〉 parallel to the (100) surface yields the adsorbate-adsorbate force constants.     

Nuclear spin-spin coupling constants prediction based on XGBoost and LightGBM algorithms

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a robust method for the analysis of molecular complex structures, and the measurement of the nuclear spin–spin coupling constant is the key. In this paper, based on the 3D coordinates of the atoms in the molecule, the spin–spin coupling constants of atom-pairs are directly predicted using Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) and Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM). The calculated result of DFT method is taken as the target value. Experiment shows that LightGBM (R²: 0.93) overall performance is better than XGBoost. In some molecules, the predicted fit (R²) of the coupling constant between atoms even reached 1.00. This research avoids complex quantum mechanics and can assist in NMR to gain insight into the structure and dynamics of molecules, thereby enriching the data information analysis method of nuclear magnetic interaction.
