Crystal structure of the ceramic superconductor BaPb0.75Bi0.25O3

The ceramic superconductor BaPb_0.75Bi_0.25O₃ is monoclinic atT<430 K with space groupI2/m. Lattice constants and the atomic coordinates result from 20 reflection groups (12<2<120°, =1.1267 Å) collected with a high resolution powder diffractometer using a synchrotron radiation source and a full neutron powder pattern (6<2<140, =1.909 Å). Synchrotron and neutron data were simtultaneously refined with SIMREF, a new profile refinement program, based on the Rietveld method. Group theoretical analysis of the distortion field leading from the ideal perovskite structure toI2/m exhibitsR ₄ ⁺ symmetry. A comparison is made with the corresponding distortions in nonsuperconducting BaBiO₃ where three different symmetry types are identified. The space groupI2/m found for BaPb_0.75Bi_0.25O₃ allows only one type of averaged (Pb/Bi)O₆ octahedron in the structure: this may support valence fluctuations and hence contribute to the mechanism of superconductivity in this particular compound.     

Observed difference between the probabilities of recoilless resonance absorptionf′ and reemissionf″ of gamma-quanta in single crystals of Na2[Fe(CN)5NO]·2 H2O

The recoilless absorption probability factor,f, and recoilless reemission,f, both measured on Na₂[Fe(CN)₅NO]·2 H₂O single crystals using the black filter technique, were found to be different. Unexpectedly, the results found weref>f. In the calculation off, selfabsorption in the scatterer, non-ideality of the black filter and the influence of non-resonant scattering processes have all been taken into account. By varying the scattering geometry for the incoming and outgoing -beam relative to the crystallographic axes only a change in the reemitted valuesf _a, f_b, f_c could be detected because of the long lifetime of the excited nucleus (10^–7 s) relative to the lattice vibration frequencies (10¹² Hz).

The luminescence of Pr3+ in BaY4Si5O17

The cell constants of four new monoclinic compounds BaR₄X₅O₁₇ (R = Y, Gd; X = Si, Ge) are given. The luminescence of various RE activators in the silicates is reported. Pr³⁺-activated BaY₄Si₅O₁₇ shows efficient ultraviolet 5d → 4f emission and weak 4f → 4f emission (mainly red luminescence from the ¹D₂ level). The 5d → 4f emission is ascribed to Pr³⁺ on Y sites, the 4f → 4f emission to Pr³⁺ on Ba sites. Energy transfer from Pr³⁺ to Gd³⁺ has been observed. Gd³⁺ plays an intermediate role in the energy transfer from Pr³⁺ to Sm³⁺ and to Dy³⁺ in BaGd₄Si₅O₁₇. Upon activation with Tb³⁺ the silicates show characteristic green Tb³⁺ luminescence with a quantum efficiency of 75% for ultraviolet excitation.     

Ultrafast fragmentation and ionisation dynamics of ammonia clusters

The formation of protonated and unprotonated ammonia cluster ions is studied by femtosecond two colour two photon pump-probe techniques applied to (NH₃) _n and (ND₃) _n clusters withn up to 8. The fourth harmonic (～ 200 nm, 6.2 eV, 160 fs) of a Ti: Sapphire laser pulse is used to excite the clusters in a state corresponding to theà state of NH₃ while the third harmonic (267 nm, 4.65 eV) is used for the subsequent ionisation step. Employing a combination of the optical Bloch equations for the excitation process and rate equations for the cluster dynamics we calibrate the zero time delay and carefully analyse the time dependence of the pump-probe signal. Several distinct intermediate steps in the time evolution can be distinguished, having characteristic time constants ranging from 40 fs to over 100 ps. They are discussed in a consistent scheme for the excitation, ionisation and protonation dynamics, accounting also for characteristic differences observed between deuterated and undeuterated species. A particularly remarkable time dependence of the homogeneous (NH₃) ₂ ⁺ cluster ion signal is interpreted as a fingerprint of internally protonated neutral precursors of the type NH₃NH₂NH₄.     

Optimization of molecular geometries in the PCILO and CNDO/2 formalism. The barrier to internal rotation in thioacetaldehyde

The barrier to internal rotation in thioacetaldehyde was investigated within the PCILO and CNDO/2 framework using standard and optimized geometries. The optimized geometries give for the barrier of PCILO a value closer to the experimental one (1.06 kcal mol^?1) whereas the CNDO/2 results yield a qualitatively wrong conformational behavior.
