A comparison of the197Au Mössbauer spectra of MAu (M=K,Rb, Cs) with (2, 2, 2-crypt M) Au

Gold-197 Mössbauer spectroscopy has been used to investigate the MAu system (M=K, Kb, Cs). Of the 11 alloys RbAu and CsAu give Mössbauer spectra consistent with cubic gold environments, while (2,2,2-crypt M) Au, (M=K, Pb, Cs) all have cubic gold environments. Comparison of the isomer shifts for the crypted and uncrypted salts leads to the conclusion that in RbAu and CsAu considerable electron density is removed from the gold 5d orbitals.     

Magnetic properties of hole-doped SCGO, SrCr(8)Ga(4-x)M(x)O(19) (M?=?Zn, Mg, Cu)

We report changes in the magnetic properties of hole-doped SCGO, SrCr8Ga4O19, induced by replacing non-magnetic Ga3+ with both non-magnetic (Mg2+ and Zn2+) and magnetic (Cu2+) cations. The resulting solid solutions, SrCr(8)Ga(4-x)M(x)O(19) (M = Zn, Mg, Cu) have been studied by x-ray diffraction and magnetic susceptibility measurements. For all cases, at least 10% of Ga can be replaced by divalent cations resulting in oxidation of ≥5% of the Cr3+ d3 to Cr4+ (d2). The hole doping results in an increase in ferromagnetic interactions and reduces the magnetic frustration. In the SrCr(8)Ga(4-x)Cu(x)O(19) series an enhancement of the spin-glass-like transition is observed, T(f)～ 6 K, which we ascribe to the magnetic nature of the Cu2+ (d9) dopant.     

Ab Initio Study on Structures and Vibrational Spectra of M+(H2O)Ar2 (M = Cu,Au)

Previous investigations have shown that it is difficult to acquire the infrared (IR) spectra of M⁺(H₂O) (M?=?Cu, Au) using a single IR photon by attaching an Ar atom to M⁺(H₂O). To explore whether the IR spectra can be obtained using the two Ar atoms tagging method, the geometrical structures, IR spectra and interaction energies are investigated in detail by ab initio electronic structure calculations for M⁺(H₂O)Ar₂ (M?=?Cu, Au) complexes. Two conceivable isomeric structures are found, which result from different binding sites for two Ar atoms. CCSD(T) calculations predict that two Ar atoms are most likely to attach to Cu⁺ for the Cu⁺(H₂O)Ar₂ complex, while the Au⁺(H₂O)Ar₂ complex prefers the isomer in which one Ar atom attaches to an H atom of the H₂O molecule and the other one is bound to Au⁺. Moreover, the calculated binding energies of the second Ar atom are smaller than the IR photon energy, and so it is possible to obtain the IR spectra for both Cu and Au species. The changes in the spectra caused by the attachment of Ar atoms to M⁺(H₂O) are discussed.     

Computational prediction of a new class of tri-coordinate cyclic heavier carbene analogues RM(μ-R)2AlR2 (M = Ge,Sn, Pb)

Design of stable heavier carbene analogues M(II) (M = Ge, Sn, Pb) with structural motifs different from the traditional di-coordinate analogues is extremely of interest and challengeable. In this paper, we computationally designed a novel class of tri-coordinate cyclic heavier analogues of carbenes covering a number of substituents, i.e., RM(μ-R)₂AlR₂ (M = Ge, Sn, Pb) 1, in which two sets of inter-molecular donor–acceptor interactions were formed between the di-coordinate carbene MR₂ and the AlR₃ moiety. The M-centre was found to undergo both the nucleophilic and insertion reactions, indicative of the ‘carbene’ character. We also designed c-1 starting from the known di-coordinate cyclic MR₂ and AlR₃ under 16 kinds of substituents [NR′₂, OR′, PR′₂, SR′(R′ = H, Me, iPr, Ph)]; c-1 also has favourable thermodynamic stability. After the only known cyclic tri-coordinate M(II) [M₂,R₄] inter-molecularly formed between two di-coordinate MR₂, the presently designed new tri-coordinate cyclic heavier carbene analogues should expand the higher coordinate M(II) family and await future laboratory synthesis.     

Galvanomagnetic properties of Ag/M (M  Fe,Ni, Co) layered metallic films

Magnetoresistance and the Hall Effect have been measured at 4.2, 78, and 300 K for a series of layered metallic films produced by sputtering. The sample periodicity Λ lay between 11 Å and 400 Å. The field and temperature dependencies of the magnetization were measured on a SQUID magnetometer. From the anomalous Hall Effect and magnetization measurements, surface anisotropy parameters are calculated. The magnetoresistance as a function of field direction is sharply peaked when the field is perpendicular to the sample. The associated anisotropy is Λ dependent.     

重金属团簇(M2Te)3(M=Au, Ag, Cu)赝势从头算研究

使用相对论和非相对论赝势,在HF和MP2理论水平上研究了重金属混合/掺杂团簇(M2Te)3(M=Au, Ag, Cu) 的几何构型和稳定性.结果显示,团簇存在具有D3h,C2v和C3v对称性的三种稳定异构体,并且各异构体之间能量相差很小.电子相关效应对M-M键长的修正十分显著,而对M-Te键长和Te-M-Te键角的修正非常小.相对论效应使所有键长变短、Te-M-Te键角变大.两种效应都提高振动频率、降低能量,使团簇结构变得更加紧凑,使多聚物趋于更加稳定.

Mechanochemical Reactions in Fe2O3–M (M: Al, Ti)

The production of metal–ceramic nanodispersion by mechanical milling of powders through the displacement reaction Fe₂O₃+M→Fe+M-oxide (with M: Al, Ti) was studied. The reaction progress with milling time was followed by recording the temperature and pressure during the process. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy at the intermediate and final stages. In both cases self-sustained reactions were observed with different activation times. The results confirm that mechanical work at room temperature yields the reduction of hematite by Ti and Al. The final oxides were identified as Ti₂O₃ and Al₂O₃, respectively. The dependence of the intermediate and final stages on the milling conditions and the starting composition will be discussed.     

Crystal structure and magnetic properties of pseudoternary TbRh2−xMxSi2(M = Ru,Ir) compounds

The structural and magnetic characteristics of the pseudoternary TbRh_2−xM_xSi₂(M = Ru, Ir) compounds were studied. The compounds crystallize in the tetragonal ThCr₂Si₂-type structure. The magnetic data were collected in the temperature range 70–300 K. Their magnetic susceptibilities satisfy the Curie-Weiss law in the temperatures higher than 130 K. The magnetic moment of the rare earth atom is larger than of the free Tb³⁺ ion. A modified RKKY theory with included interaction between the conduction electrons was applied to explain the variation of properties of the compounds.     

Tunneling and point-contact spectroscopy of high-T c superconductors M−Ba2Cu3O7 (M=Y,La, Eu)

Tunneling and point-contact measurements have been performed on different high-T _c superconductors M–Ba₂Cu₃O₇ with M=Y, La, Eu. The average energy gaps deduced from the tunneling spectra are about 2=33 meV for the Y- and La-type samples and about 2=38 meV for the Eu-type samples, which give ratios 2/k _B T _c in the range from 4 to 6. The point-contact characteristics show a distinct minimum in the differential resistance about zero bias and additional sharp spikes up to 40 mV. From these pointcontacts we can give an estimate of the critical current, yielding values in the range from 0.2 to 3 mA.     

Evaluation of the electrical capacitance of M,O2/O2− interfaces (M=Pt, Au, Pd, In2O3; O2− = zirconia based electrolyte) exhibiting constant phase element behavior

The behavior of the electrode systems M,O₂/O² (M = porous Pd, Pt, A and dense In₂O₃; O²⁻ = ZrO₂-based single-crystal solid electrolyte) was studied by means of impedance measurements. The examination of the Pt,O₂/O²⁻ electrode system showed that the constant phase element (CPE) can be attributed to a nonuniform distribution of current at the electrode surface. It was observed that the CPE parameters n and B in the expression Y_CPE = B (jω)ⁿ may be related by B=(C_dl)ⁿ (R_Ω)_n-1, where C_dl is the double layer capacitance and R_Ω the resistance of the electrolyte in the cell. Then, C_dl of the electrode - electrolyte interface could be determined. The specific C_dl of the oxidized noble metals and india electrodes is nearly one order of magnitude lower than C_dl of the electrodes in the metallic state. The C_dl value of all the electrodes studied depends little or is independent of temperature and oxygen pressure. It is concluded that the Helmholtz model of double layer structure does not contradict the C_dl behavior.

Mössbauer spectra of SiO₂-supported bimetallic FeM (M=Ru, Rh, Pd, Ir, and Pt) with FeM=15 arter treatments such as reduction, exposure to CO and passivation in air are described and compared with previous results obtained on 11 FeM/SiO₂ catalysts.     

Mössbauer study of hydrided amorhous Fe−M−Zr (M=Co,Cr) alloys

Mössbauer spectra of hydrided amorphous Fe₉₀?_xCo_xZr₁₀ (A_x) and Fe₉₀?_yCr_yZr₁₀ (B_y) (x=4, 10, 20; y=0, 4, 7, 13, 16, 20) are studied. For low hydriding time values (t), the average hyperfine field \(\left( {\bar B_{hf} } \right)\) and isomer shift δ_is show a drastic increase which can mainly be associated with the volume effect. For higher (t) values, an electron transfer effect can be responsible for the hyperfine parameter variation. The influence of hydrogenation on magnetic anisotropy is also discussed.     

A study of the system Ag3−xTlxFe(CN)6, (x =0, 1, 2, 3) by Mössbauer spectroscopy

The ferricyanides Ag_3−xTl_xFe(CN)₆, (x = 0, 1, 2, 3) have been measured by Mössbauer spectroscopy. The results indicate a negative EFG for all samples except for x = 1, that is positive. The isomer shift for Tl₃Fe(CN)₆ is the more negative, indicating a strong contribution from the empty p-orbitals of Tl⁺ ions.     

Adiabatic approximation forW * quantum systems with particles of massm,M as (m/M)1/2→0

The (m/M)^1/20 limit and the adiabatic approximation for a nonrelativistic system consisting of light and heavy particles of massesm,M are studied. The method used involves a standard representation of quantum mechanics, in which the limit above exists. The standard representation is described in some detail, and the Primas-Raggio theorem is derived, which implies that the limit (m/M)^1/20, the heavy-particle system is a static, semiclassical system, i.e., with a commutative algebra of observables. The adiabatic approximation is derived as the leading correction.

Realisations of quantum GL p,q(2) and Jordanian GLh,h′(2)

The quantum group GL _p,q(2) is known to be related to the Jordanian GL_h,h(2) via a contraction procedure. It can also be realised using the generators of the Hopf algebra G _r,s. We contract the G _r,s quantum group to obtain its Jordanian analogue G _m,k, which provides a realisation of GL_h,h(2) in a manner similar to the q-deformed case.
