Characterization of oxide layers on amorphous Mg-based alloys by Auger electron spectroscopy with sputter depth profiling

Amorphous ribbons of Mg-Y-TM-[Ag] (TM: Cu, Ni), prepared by melt spinning, were subjected to electrochemical investigations. Oxide layers formed anodically under potentiostatic control in different electrolytes were investigated by AES and sputter depth profiling. Problems and specific features of characterization of the composition of oxide layers and amorphous ternary or quaternary Mg-based alloys have been investigated. In the alloys the Mg(KL(23)L(23)) peak exhibits a different shape compared to that in the pure element. Analysis of the peak of elastically scattered electrons proved the absence of plasmon loss features, characteristic of pure Mg, in the alloy. A different loss feature emerges in Mg(KL(23)L(23)) and Cu(L(23)VV). The system Mg-Y-TM-[Ag] suffers preferential sputtering. Depletion of Mg and enrichment of TM and Y are found. This is attributed mainly to the preferential sputtering of Mg. Thickness and composition of the formed oxide layer depend on the electrochemical treatment. After removing the oxide by sputtering the concentration of the underlying alloy was found to be affected by the treatment.     

The design of molecules containing planar tetracoordinate carbon

A novel preference for planar tetracoordination was observed over the conventional tetrahedral arrangement in a new series of C₅H₂, C₅H₄, C₅H₄^1+/2+ and related compounds. The stability of these molecules is assessed with the ring-opening barriers, HOMO-LUMO gap, singlet-triplet energy differences and nucleus independent chemical shift values.     

同位旋非对称核物质性质与扩展的BHF方法(Ⅲ)HVH定理与费米能量

在扩展的同位旋相关的Brueckner-Hartree-Fock理论框架内,在整个同位旋自由度范围内研究了质量算子的空穴线展开中不同等级近似下非对称核物质中Hugenholtz-Van Hove定理的满足程度,并计算了中子和质子的费米能量.结果表明为了使Hugenholtz-Van Hove定理达到令人满意的满足程度,需要同时考虑质量算子中的重排贡献和重正修正,从而指出了基态关联对于非对称核物质中单粒子性质的重要性.

Darstellung und Molekülstrukturen von oligofunktionalen Dirheniumcarbonylderivaten aus Dirheniumnonacarbonylphosphan

Preparation and Molecular Structures of Oligofunctional Dirhenium Carbonyl Derivatives from Dirhenium Nonacarbonylphosphane Starting with dirheniumdecacarbonyl, one CO-Ligand was eliminated oxidatively and substituted by the labile acetonitrile ligand. As an intermediate eq-Re₂(CO)₉NCCH₃ was received. The reaction of this labilised carbonyl with tris(trimethylsilyl)phosphine and subsequent methanolysis gave ax-Re₂(CO)₉PH₃, which was isolated and characterized for the first time. Photochemical and thermal reaction of ax-Re₂(CO)₉PH₃ led to the new bi- and trinuclear complexes Re₂(μ-H)(μ₃-PHRe(CO)₅)(CO)₈, Re₂(μ-PH₂)₂(CO)₈ and Re₂(μ-H) · (μ-PH₂)(CO)₈, which were characterized by IR-, ¹H- and ³¹P-NMR spectroscopy. The structures of ax-Re₂(CO)₉PH₃, Re₂(μ-H)(μ₃-PHRe(CO)₅)(CO)₈ and Re₂(μ-PH₂)₂(CO)₈ were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis. ax-Re₂(CO)₉PH₃ has a very short Re? P bond length of 228(2) pm.
