Synthesis,Structures, and Properties of Fused Thiophenes for Organic Field‐Effect Transistors

A series of fused thiophenes composed of fused α‐oligothiophene units as building blocks, end‐capped with either styrene or 1‐pentyl‐4‐vinylbenzene groups, has been synthesized through Stille coupling reactions. The compounds have been fully characterized by means of ¹H NMR spectrometry, high‐resolution mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. The molecules present a trans–trans configuration between their double bonds, which has been verified and confirmed by Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. The X‐ray crystal structures showed π–π overlap and sulfur–sulfur interactions between the adjacent molecules. The decomposition temperatures were all found to be above 300 °C, indicating that compounds of this series possess excellent thermal stability. The fact that no phase transition occurs at low temperature indicates that they should be well‐suited for application in devices. Moreover, they possess low HOMO energy levels, based on cyclic voltammetry measurements, and suitable energy gaps, as determined from their thin‐film UV/Vis spectra. Thin‐film X‐ray diffraction analysis and atomic force microscopy revealed high crystallinity on supporting substrates. In addition, as the substrate temperature has a significant influence on the morphology and the degree of crystallinity, the device performance could be optimized by varying the substrate temperature. These materials were found to exhibit optimal field‐effect performance, with a mobility of 0.17 cm² V^?1 s^?1 and an on/off ratio of 10⁵, at a substrate temperature of 70 °C.     

Pattern discrimination and firing behavior of cold receptor model aided with noise

A method for characterizing and identifying firing patterns of neural spike trains is presented. Three characteristic variables defined at sequential moments, including two formal derivatives and the integration of the counting process, are introduced to reflect the temporal patterns of a spike train. This paper also examines how noise interacts with encoding mechanisms of neuronal stimulus in a cold receptor. From ISI series and bifurcation diagrams it is shown that there are considerable differences in interval distributions and impulse patterns caused by purely deterministic simulations and noisy simulations. The ISI-distance can be used as an effective and powerful way to measure the noise effects on spike trains quantitatively. It is found that spike trains observed in cold receptors can be more strongly affected by noise for low temperatures than for high temperatures in some aspects; meanwhile, spike train has greater variability with the noise intensity increasing.     

Crystal Structure of Bis -(2,2′-bipyridine-N,N′)-(dicyanamide-N)-copper(II) Tricyanomethanide. Electronic and Structural Parameters Describing the Shape of Coordination Polyhedra in Five-Coordinated Copper(II) Compounds

 The structure of the new compound [Cu(bpy)₂N(CN)₂]C(CN)₃ (6) is compared with thestructures of six copper(II) coordination compounds with phenanthroline or bipyridine ligands and N-donor pseudohalide anions: [Cu(phen)₂NCS]C(CN)₃ (1), [Cu(bpy)₂NCS]C(CN)₃ (2), [Cu(phen)₂NCS]ONC(CN)₂ (3), [Cu(phen)₂N(CN)₂]C(CN)₃ (4), [Cu(bpy)₂C(CN)₃]C(CN)₃ (5), and [Cu(bpy)₂NCO]C(CN)₃ (7). The Cu(II) atoms in all above compounds are five-coordinated with an N-donor atom of the pseudohalide anion located in the equatorial plane of a deformed trigonal bipyramid. The shape of the coordination polyhedra and the degree of trigonal bipyramidal distortion towards a tetragonal pyramid are discussed and described using one electronic and several structural criteria which are discussed and compared.     

Isolated tin fluoride molecules in a copper lattice

A Mössbauer absorber was made by simultaneous evaporation of copper and implantation of¹¹⁹Sn, and postimplantation of F. A large fraction of Sn⁴⁺ was formed, assigned to the formation of SnF₄.     

Measurement of the mode coherence coefficients

Based on average intensity distributions at two axial positions, an experimental approach to determine the mode coherence coefficients was developed. Using this approach, investigations were carried out for a CO₂ laser with a stripe resonator. The power partitions of, and cross-correlations between, modes at different aperture widths and the dependence of the beam quality on the aperture width were studied. The measuring principle, an iterative fit method, and some experimental results are presented and discussed.

catena‐Poly[[[bis(μ‐4,5‐dihydrothiazole‐2‐thiolato)‐tetrahedro‐tetracopper(I)]‐di‐μ‐4,5‐dihydrothiazole‐2‐thiolato] dihydrate]

The title compound, {[Cu₄(C₃H₄NS₂)₄]·2H₂O}_n, was produced by diffusing a solution of 2‐mercapto­thia­zoline in tetra­hydro­furan into a solution of CuCl in CH₃CN at room temperature. The structure is characterized by self‐assembled one‐dimensional chains that are condensed from butterfly‐like [Cu(C₃H₄NS₂)]₄ tetrameric units via double S‐bridging at opposite ends. The Cu—Cu distances within the Cu₄ butterfly cluster are in the range 2.7103 (10)–2.9764 (10) Å, while the shortest Cu?Cu intercluster distance is 3.468 (1) Å, much longer than the sum of the van der Waals radii.

Based algebras and standard bases for quasi-hereditary algebras

Quasi-hereditary algebras can be viewed as a Lie theory approach to the theory of finite dimensional algebras. Motivated by the existence of certain nice bases for representations of semisimple Lie algebras and algebraic groups, we will construct in this paper nice bases for (split) quasi-hereditary algebras and characterize them using these bases. We first introduce the notion of a standardly based algebra, which is a generalized version of a cellular algebra introduced by Graham and Lehrer, and discuss their representation theory. The main result is that an algebra over a commutative local noetherian ring with finite rank is split quasi-hereditary if and only if it is standardly full-based. As an application, we will give an elementary proof of the fact that split symmetric algebras are not quasi-hereditary unless they are semisimple. Finally, some relations between standardly based algebras and cellular algebras are also discussed.
