High performance organic field-effect transistors based on amphiphilic tris(phthalocyaninato) rare earth triple-decker complexes

LB films of three amphiphilic tris(phthalocyaninato) rare earth triple-decker complexes with crown-ethers as hydrophilic heads and long alkyl chains as hydrophobic tails have been prepared and found to display very well ordered layer structures, as proved by pi-A isotherms, UV-vis and polarized absorption spectra, X-ray diffraction experiments, and microscopic morphology characterization. These LB films have been fabricated into field-effect transistor (FET) devices, which show carrier mobilities as high as 0.24-0.60 cm2 V-1 s-1, among the highest mobilities achieved thus far for all LB film-based OFETs.     

Influence of the water molecule on cation-pi interaction: ab initio second order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) calculations

The influence of introducing water molecules into a cation-pi complex on the interaction between the cation and the pi system was investigated using the MP2/6-311++G method to explore how a cation-pi complex changes in terms of both its geometry and its binding strength during the hydration. The calculation on the methylammonium-benzene complex showed that the cation-pi interaction is weakened by introducing H(2)O molecules into the system. For example, the optimized interaction distance between the cation and the benzene becomes longer and longer, the transferred charge between them becomes less and less, and the cation-pi binding strength becomes weaker and weaker as the water molecule is introduced one by one. Furthermore, the introduction of the third water molecule leads to a dramatic change in both the complex geometry and the binding energy, resulting in the destruction of the cation-pi interaction. The decomposition on the binding energy shows that the influence is mostly brought out through the electrostatic and induction interactions. This study also demonstrated that the basis set superposition error, thermal energy, and zero-point vibrational energy are significant and needed to be corrected for accurately predicting the binding strength in a hydrated cation-pi complex at the MP2/6-311++G level. Therefore, the results are helpful to better understand the role of water molecules in some biological processes involving cation-pi interactions.     

γ—Mo2N合成过程中的热变化及中间产物的研究

采用ＤＴＡ技术，通过改变升温速率研究了γ－Ｍｏ２Ｎ合成过程中的热变化，并经ＸＲＤ，ＢＥＴ及ＩＲ测试，对ＤＴＡ曲线中的谱峰进行归属，考察了中间产物，ＤＴＡ结果表明，在ＭｏＯ３和ＮＨ３程序升温反应过程中有放热峰及吸热峰出现，且随升温速率的长高，放热峰面积与吸热峰面积之比逐渐减小，结合ＸＲＤ及ＩＲ结果可知，ＤＴＡ曲线听放热峰可归属为由ＭｏＯ３变化为ＭｏＯ２的还原峰，吸热峰则归属为由ＭｏＯ２变化为Ｍｏ２Ｎ
