Synthesis of some chiral liquid crystals and study of the effect of intramolecular hydrogen bonding on the phase behaviour

The synthesis of three new series of chiral Schiff's bases containing benzilideneaniline and 2-hydroxybenzilideneaniline moieties as mesogenic cores is presented. Differential scanning calorimetry, optical polarizing microscopy and X-ray diffraction measurements were used to study the phase transition temperatures and behaviour. The results reveal that most of these materials show chiral smectic mesomorphism.

Scanning mirror on a vibrating membrane for dynamic optical trapping

A study of the variation of the spectral shape and the harmonic distribution of the high-order harmonics generated from silver plasma on the frequency chirp of the driving laser radiation (793 nm 48 fs) is reported. The results of the systematic study of the harmonic generation from the 21st order up to the 61st order (λ=13 nm) are presented. A tuning of the harmonic wavelength up to 0.8 nm can be accomplished by variation of the laser chirp. PACS 42.65.Ky; 42.79.Nv; 52.38.Mf     

铁羰基络合物制备的一氧化碳加氢催化剂的研究

本文采用Ｆｅ＿３（ＣＯ）＿（１２）制备担载型络合物催化剂。采用程序升温反应技术考察了这类催化剂（ＣＯ＋Ｈ＿２）的反应性能，井使用紫外漫反射光谱和穆斯堡尔谱对催化剂进行了表征。经２５０℃和１５０℃还原的Ｆｅ／γ－Ａｌ＿２Ｏ＿３催化剂不仅活性远远高于４５０℃还原的Ｆｅ／γ－Ａｌ＿２Ｏ＿３，而且前者在反应过程中有乙烯和乙烷生成，后者则只有甲烷生成。经２５０℃还原的Ｆｅ／分子筛催化剂的活性高于４５０℃还原的Ｆｅ／分子筛催化剂，而且前者在反应过程中有乙烯、乙烷和丙烯生成，后者则只有甲烷生成。紫外漫反射谱和穆斯堡尔谱结果表明：较温和条件下活化的催化剂上有金属于属键骨架的存在。     

Synthesis,crystal structures and electrochemical properties of group 6 metal carbonyl anion complexes

A series of [M(CO)₅I]⁻ and [M₂(CO)₁₀I]⁻ anion complexes have been synthesized by the photochemical reaction of PhCH₂N(CH₃)₃I or FcCH₂N(CH₃)₃I (Fc=ferrocenyl) with M(CO)₆ (M = Cr, Mo or W), and characterized by elemental analyses, i.r., ¹H-n.m.r. and ¹³C-n.m.r. spectra in the case of the molybdenum and tungsten complexes. These complexes exhibit considerably different electrochemical behavior, when investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The crystal structures of [PhCH₂N(CH₃)₃][Cr(CO)₅I] and [FcCH₂N(CH₃)₃][W₂(CO)₁₀I] have been determined by X-ray diffraction, indicating that only weak contacts maybe exist between anions and cations by the I...H bond in the former, and there are no direct interactions between anions and cations in the latter.     

Fabrication of hexaphenylsilole nanowires and their morphology-tunable photoluminescence.

Immersion of nanoporous alumina membranes into saturated solutions of hexaphenylsilole with subsequent solvent evaporation affords aligned organic nanowires. The luminescent properties of the hexaphenylsilole nanowires can be manipulated by varying their morphologies, which were controlled by changing the channel sizes of the alumina templates.     

Preparation of Ce-Zr-O solid solution

A single phase solid solution of Ce-Zr-O can be made by using NH₄HCO₃ solution as precipitating agent. The influence of preparation conditions, such as pH, Zr⁴⁺/(CO₃ ^2-+HCO₃ ^-) and Ce³⁺/Zr⁴⁺ ratio on the formation of the solid solution were investigated. The results show that a single phase Ce-Zr-O solid solution can be formed only under a narrow window of preparation conditions, indicating that some compounds are formed in the precipitating process. The compound may contain Ce³⁺, Zr⁴⁺, CO₃ ^2-, HCO^3-, and OH^-. The solid solution so prepared can be described as Ce_0.37Zr_0.63O₂.
