Fe(3+) ions in alkali lead tetraborate glasses--an electron paramagnetic resonance and optical study

Glass systems of composition 90R(2)B(4)O(7)+9PbO+1Fe(2)O(3) (R=Li, Na and K) and 90Li(2)B(4)O(7)+(10-x)PbO+xFe(2)O(3) (x=0.5, 1, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 9 mol %) have been investigated by means of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and optical absorption techniques. The EPR spectra exhibit three resonance signals at g approximately 6.0, 4.2 and 2.0. The resonances at g approximately 6.0 and 4.2 are attributed to Fe(3+) ions in rhombic and axial symmetry sites, respectively. The g approximately 2.0 resonance signal is due to two or more Fe(3+) ions coupled together with dipolar interaction. The EPR spectra of 1 mol % of Fe(2)O(3) doped in lithium lead tetraborate glass samples have been studied at different temperatures (123-433 K). The intensity of g approximately 4.2 resonance signal decreases and the intensity of g approximately 2.0 resonance signal increases with the increase of temperature. The line widths are found to be independent of temperature. The EPR spectra exhibit a marked concentration dependence on iron content. A decrease in intensity for the resonance signal at g approximately 4.2 with increase in iron content for more than 4 mol % has been observed in lithium lead tetraborate glass samples and this has been attributed to the formation of Fe(3+) ion clusters in the glass samples. The paramagnetic susceptibility (chi) is calculated from the EPR data at various temperatures and the Curie constant (C) has been evaluated from 1/chi versus T graph. The optical absorption spectrum of Fe(3+) ions in lithium lead tetraborate glasses exhibits three bands characteristic of Fe(3+) ions in an octahedral symmetry. The crystal field parameter D(q) and the Racah interelectronic repulsion parameters B and C have also been evaluated. The value of interelectronic repulsion parameter B (825 cm(-1)) obtained in the present work suggests that the bonding is moderately covalent.     

Ammonium dithionate- a new material for highly sensitive EPR dosimetry

Polycrystalline ammonium dithionate has been examined for its radiation response in the low dose range (<5Gy) using EPR technique. The SO(3)(-) radical ion was detected as a single EPR line with a peak-to-peak derivative width of ca. 0.44mT in irradiated samples and its intensity was found to vary linearly with dose. At equal and moderate settings of microwave power and modulation amplitude ammonium dithionate was at least seven times more sensitive than l-alanine which is the most common EPR dosimeter standard. Pulse experiments were performed on the powder samples to obtain the longitudinal relaxation time. These and microwave saturation experiments served to indicate the optimal microwave power to be applied during measurements as an EPR dosimeter for best sensitivity of this material. It is thus claimed that ammonium dithionate has excellent potential to become an EPR dosimeter with a low limit of the measurable dose for cases where tissue equivalence is not required or can be corrected for.     

Compounds of 6Li and natural Li for EPR dosimetry in photon/neutron mixed radiation fields

Formates and dithionates of 6Li, enriched and 7Li in natural composition of Li offer a possibility to measure the absorbed dose from photons and thermal neutrons in a mixed radiation field for instance at a boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) facility. Tests with formates and dithionates of enriched 6Li and lithium compounds with natural composition have been performed at the BNCT facility at Studsvik, Sweden. Irradiations have been performed at 3 cm depth in a Perspex phantom in a fluence rate of thermal neutrons 1.8 x 10(9) n cm(-2) s(-1). The compounds were also irradiated in a pure X-ray field from a 4MV linear accelerator at 5 cm depth in a phantom with accurately determined absorbed doses. The signal intensity and shape was investigated within 3 h after the irradiation. A single line spectrum attributed to the CO2- radical was observed after irradiation of lithium formate. An increase in line width occurring after neutron irradiation in comparison with photon irradiation of the 6Li sample was attributed to dipolar broadening between CO2- radicals trapped in the tracks of the alpha particles. A spectrum due to the SO3- radical anion was observed after irradiation of lithium dithionate. The signal amplitude increased using the 6Li in place of the Li with natural composition of isotopes, in studies with low energy X-ray irradiation. Due to the decreased line width, caused by the difference in g(N) and I between the isotopes, the sensitivity with 6Li dithionate may be enhanced by an order of magnitude compared to alanine dosimetry. After comprehensive examination of the different combinations of compounds with different amounts of 6Li and 7Li regarding dosimetry, radiation chemistry and EPR properties these dosimeter material might be used for dose determinations at BNCT treatments and for biomedical experiments. Interesting properties of the radical formation might be visible due to the large difference in ionization density of neutrons compared to photons.     

Development of nickel-doped lithium formate as potential EPR dosimeter for low dose determination

EPR dosimetry employing L-alpha-alanine has been in vogue during the past few years, due to its tissue equivalence and linear dose response. However, L-alpha-alanine dosimetry has been improved during the past years, the sensitivity of this material is still too low for clinical applications. Polycrystalline lithium formate doped with NiCl2 was therefore examined for radiation response in the dose range of clinical interest (<5 Gy) using CW EPR and pulse EPR techniques. At equal and moderate settings of microwave power and modulation amplitude lithium formate doped with 1.6 wt% of NiCl2 was almost four times more sensitive compared to L-alpha-alanine, which is the most common EPR dosimeter standard. It was shown that the nickel-doped lithium formate has an excellent radiation response with a low limit of the measurable dose, and a linear dose response in the range 1-5 Gy. The relaxation and power saturation studies showed that high microwave power can be applied during measurements to improve the sensitivity of this material as an EPR dosimeter. These results show that lithium formate doped with Ni(II) exhibits promising properties required for further development of an EPR dosimeter in the dose range typical for clinical dosimetry.     

Artifacts in the electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of C60 fullerene ions: inevitable C120O impurity

Aspects of the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of C60n- fulleride ions (n = 2, 3) and the EPR signal observed in solid C60 are reinterpreted. Insufficient levels of reduction and the unrecognized presence of C120O, a ubiquitous and unavoidable impurity in air-exposed C60, have compromised most previously reported spectra of fullerides. Central narrow line width signals ("spikes") are ascribed to C120On- (n = odd). Signals arising from axial triplets (g approximately 2.0015, D = 26-29 G) in the spectrum of C602- are ascribed to C120On- (n = 2 or 4). Their D values are more realistic for C120O than C60. Less distinct signals from "powder" triplets (D approximately 11 G) are ascribed to aggregates of C120On- (n = odd) arising from freezing nonglassing solvents. In highly purified samples of C60, we find no evidence for a broad approximately 30 G signal previously assigned to a thermally accessible triplet of C60(2-). The C60(2-) ion is EPR-silent. Signals previously ascribed to a quartet state of the C60(3-) ion are ascribed to C120O4-. Uncomplicated, authentic spectra of C60- and C60(3-) become available when fully reduced samples are prepared under strictly anaerobic conditions from freshly HPLC-purified C60. Solid off-the-shelf C60 has an EPR signal (g approximately 2.0025, DeltaH(pp) approximately 1.5 G) that is commonly ascribed to the radical cation C60*+. This signal can be reproduced by exposing highly purified, EPR-silent C60 to oxygen in the dark. Doping C60 with an authentic C60*+ salt gives a signal with much greater line width (DeltaH(pp) = 6-8 G). It is suggested that the EPR signal in air-exposed samples of C60 arises from a peroxide-bridged diradical, *C60-O-O-C60* or its decomposition products rather than from C60*+. Solid-state C60 is more sensitive to oxygen than previously appreciated such that contamination with C120O is almost impossible to avoid.

VO2+ ions in zinc lead borate glasses studied by EPR and optical absorption techniques

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and optical absorption spectra of vanadyl ions in zinc lead borate (ZnO-PbO-B2O3) glass system have been studied. EPR spectra of all the glass samples exhibit resonance signals characteristic of VO2+ ions. The values of spin-Hamiltonian parameters indicate that the VO2+ ions in zinc lead borate glasses were present in octahedral sites with tetragonal compression and belong to C4V symmetry. The spin-Hamiltonian parameters g and A are found to be independent of V2O5 content and temperature but changing with ZnO content. The decrease in Deltag( parallel)/Deltag( perpendicular) value with increase in ZnO content indicates that the symmetry around VO2+ ions is more octahedral. The decrease in intensity of EPR signal above 10 mol% of V2O5 is attributed to a fall in the ratio of the number of V4+ ions (N4) to the number of V5+ ions (N5). The number of spins (N) participating in resonance was calculated as a function of temperature for VO2+ doped zinc lead borate glass sample and the activation energy was calculated. From the EPR data, the paramagnetic susceptibility was calculated at various temperatures and the Curie constant was evaluated from the 1/chi-T graph. The optical absorption spectra show single absorption band due to VO2+ ions in tetragonally distorted octahedral sites.

Stereodefined synthesis of O3'-labeled uracil nucleosides. 3'-[(17)O]-2'-Azido-2'-deoxyuridine 5'-diphosphate as a probe for the mechanism of inactivation of ribonucleotide reductases

Thermolysis of a 2'-[(16)O]-O-benzoyl-[(17)O]-5'-O-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-O(2),3'-cyclouridine derivative gave the more stable 3'-[(17)O]-O-benzoyl-[(16)O]- 5'-O-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-O(2),2'-cyclouridine isomer, which was converted into 3'-[(17)O]-2'-azido-2'-deoxyuridine by deprotection and nucleophilic ring opening at C2' with lithium azide. The 5'-diphosphate was prepared by nucleophilic displacement of the 5'-O-tosyl group with tris(tetrabutylammonium) hydrogen pyrophosphate. Model reactions gave (16)O and (18)O isotopomers, and base-promoted hydrolysis of an O(2),2'-cyclonucleoside gave stereodefined access to 3'-[(18)O]-1-(beta-D-arabinofuranosyl)uracil. Inactivation of ribonucleoside diphosphate reductase with 2'-azido-2'-deoxynucleotides results in appearance of EPR signals for a nitrogen-centered radical derived from azide, and 3'-[(17)O]-2'-azido-2'-deoxyuridine 5'-diphosphate provides an isotopomer to perturb EPR spectra in a predictable manner.     

Bluish-white emission from radical carbonyl impurities in amorphous Al(2)O(3) prepared via the Pechini-type sol-gel process

Many efforts have been devoted to exploring novel luminescent materials that do not contain expensive or toxic elements, or do not need mercury vapor plasma as the excitation source. In this paper, amorphous Al2O3 powder samples were prepared via the Pechini-type sol-gel process. The resulting samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), photoluminescence (PL) excitation and emission spectra, kinetic decay, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). The obtained amorphous Al2O3 powder samples annealed at 500 and 600 degrees C exhibit bright bluish-white emission centered at 430 and 407 nm, respectively. The luminescent mechanisms of the amorphous Al2O3 powder samples can be ascribed to the carbon-related impurities such as radical carbonyl species. The calculated band structure of the defective amorphous Al2O3 agrees well with the results of spectral analysis and the proposed luminescent mechanism.     

Chemical process to separate iron oxides particles in pottery sample for EPR dating

Ancient potteries usually are made of the local clay material, which contains relatively high concentration of iron. The powdered samples are usually quite black, due to magnetite, and, although they can be used for thermoluminescene (TL) dating, it is easiest to obtain better TL reading when clearest natural or pre-treated sample is used. For electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements, the huge signal due to iron spin-spin interaction, promotes an intense interference overlapping any other signal in this range. Sample dating is obtained by dividing the radiation dose, determined by the concentration of paramagnetic species generated by irradiation, by the natural dose so as a consequence, EPR dating cannot be used, since iron signal do not depend on radiation dose. In some cases, the density separation method using hydrated solution of sodium polytungstate [Na6(H2W12O40).H2O] becomes useful. However, the sodium polytungstate is very expensive in Brazil; hence an alternative method for eliminating this interference is proposed. A chemical process to eliminate about 90% of magnetite was developed. A sample of powdered ancient pottery was treated in a mixture (3:1:1) of HCl, HNO(3) and H(2)O(2) for 4h. After that, it was washed several times in distilled water to remove all acid matrixes. The original black sample becomes somewhat clearer. The resulting material was analyzed by plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), with the result that the iron content is reduced by a factor of about 9. In EPR measurements a non-treated natural ceramic sample shows a broad spin-spin interaction signal, the chemically treated sample presents a narrow signal in g=2.00 region, possibly due to a radical of (SiO(3))(3-), mixed with signal of remaining iron [M. Ikeya, New Applications of Electron Spin Resonance, World Scientific, Singapore, 1993, p. 285]. This signal increases in intensity under gamma-irradiation. However, still due to iron influence, the additive method yielded too old age-value. Since annealing at 300 degrees C, Toyoda and Ikeya [S. Toyoda, M. Ikeya, Geochem. J. 25 (1991) 427-445] states that E1'-signal with maximum intensity is obtained, while annealing at 400 degrees C E1'-signal is completely eliminated, the subtraction of the second one from 300 degrees C heat-treated sample isolate E1'-like signal. Since this is radiation dose-dependent, we show that now EPR dating becomes possible.     

Investigation of phase separation in Nd3+ doped ternary sodium borosilicate glasses by optical spectroscopy

Two glasses doped with 1 mol% Nd2O3 and batch compositions inside the miscibility gap of the ternary Na2O-B2O3-SiO2 system were prepared by rapid quenching of the 1,400 degrees C melts. Phase separation was induced by heat-treatment at 600 degrees C for different exposure times and monitored qualitatively by an observation of Rayleigh scattering. The 4I(9/2-->P(1/2) transition of Nd3+ around 23300 cm(-1) recorded for the quenched samples without heat-treatment was used to demonstrate that submicroscopic phase separation in the doped glasses occurs instantaneously upon quenching. The effect of the Nd3+ concentration on this submicroscopic phase separation was investigated.     

Comparative study of the water oxidizing reactions and the millisecond delayed chlorophyll fluorescence in photosystem II at different pH

Water splitting activity, the multiline EPR signal associated with S(2)-state of the CaMn(4)-cluster and the fast and slow phases of the induction curve of the millisecond delayed chlorophyll fluorescence from photosystem II (PSII) in the pH range of 4.5-8.5 were studied in the thylakoid membranes and purified PSII particles. It has been found that O(2) evolution and the multiline EPR signal were inhibited at acidic (pK approximately 5.3) and alkaline (pK approximately 8.1) pH values, and were maximal at pH 6.0-7.0. Our results indicate that the loss of O(2) evolution and the S(2)-state multiline EPR signal associated with the decrease of the millisecond delayed chlorophyll fluorescence only in alkaline region (pH 7.0-8.5). Possible correlations of the millisecond delayed chlorophyll fluorescence components with the donor side reactions in PSII are discussed.     

EPR and optical investigations of manganese ions in alkali lead tetraborate glasses

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and optical absorption spectra of Mn2+ ions in different alkali lead tetraborate glasses 90R2B4O7+9.25PbO+0.75MnSO4 (R=Li, Na and K) and 90Li2B4O7+(10-x)PbO+xMnSO4 (x=0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25, 1.5 and 2 mol%) have been studied. The EPR spectrum of all the glass samples exhibit three resonance signals at g=2.0, 3.3 and 4.3. The resonance signal at g=2.0 is attributed to the Mn2+ ions in an environment close to an octahedral symmetry. The resonance signals at g=3.3 and 4.3 have been attributed to the rhombic symmetry of the Mn2+ ions. The effect of temperature (123-433 K) and the composition dependence of EPR signals have been studied for Mn2+ ions in lithium lead tetraborate glasses. It is interesting to observe that the variation of paramagnetic susceptibility (chi) with temperature obeys Curie-Weiss law. From the slope of 1/chi versus T graph, the Curie constant (C) has been evaluated. The zero-field splitting (zfs) parameter D has been calculated for different alkali lead tetraborate glasses from the intensities of the allowed hyperfine lines. The optical absorption spectrum exhibits three bands. An intense and broad band at lower energy side has been assigned to the spin-allowed (5Eg-->5T2g) transition of Mn3+ ions in an octahedral symmetry. The intense and sharp band and a broad band at higher energy side have been assigned to charge transfer bands. A red shift is observed with increase of alkali ion size. The optical band gap energy (Eopt) decreases, whereas the Urbach energies (DeltaE) increases with increase of Mn content. The theoretical values of optical basicity (Lambdath) of the glasses have also been evaluated.

浓度梯度分布的镍和氮共掺杂TiO2光催化剂的制备和表征

以TiCl4为钛前驱体, 氨水和氯化镍为掺杂离子给体, 采用沉淀和层层浸渍相结合的方法制备了氮、镍共掺杂TiO2光催化剂. 采用X射线衍射(XRD)、氮气吸附-脱附、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、紫外-可见漫反射吸收光谱(UV-Vis)等现代表征方法对催化剂的晶体结构、微结构、掺杂基团和光谱性质进行了表征. XRD和氮吸附-脱附分析结果表明, 氮、镍共掺杂TiO2为单一锐钛矿相, 具有介孔结构. XPS谱证实掺杂的氮和镍分别以NOx和Ni2O3及NiO的形式存在, 且镍在共掺杂表面的浓度高于体相中的浓度, 在扩散方向上存在浓度梯度分布. 4-氯酚的降解实验结果表明, 浓度梯度分布镍和氮共掺杂TiO2的紫外光-可见光催化活性均高于均相共掺杂TiO2、单掺杂和未掺杂TiO2的催化活性. 其原因是掺杂的氮以NOx形式存在, 使催化剂的感光范围拓展至可见光区; 而掺杂的镍维持了半导体体系的电荷平衡, 有效抑制了Ti3+的产生. 同时掺杂的镍在催化剂中存在浓度梯度分布, 减少了光生电子和空穴的复合几率, 提高了催化剂的光催化活性.     

Structural and magnetic properties of self assembled Fe-doped Cu2O nanorods

Cuprous oxide (Cu₂O) nanorods doped with iron impurities have been synthesized by the polyol method using sodium dodecyl sulfate as the surfactant. The X-ray diffraction measurement reveals the pure phase of simple cubic Cu₂O and the electron microscopy displays its one dimensional morphology. Ferromagnetism was observed at room temperature in the magnetic measurements of the doped samples while undoped sample exhibits only diamagnetism. Room temperature Mössbauer spectra for the samples exhibited only doublets but no sextet, which corresponds to the presence of paramagnetic iron sites. As magnetic moment contribution of the doped ions was insignificant for the observed magnetism, ferromagnetic property in the doped samples could have been originated from the defects as cation vacancies. Existence of the defects was supported by the room temperature photoluminescence spectra of the doped samples in reference to the undoped sample.
