On the role of collective and local molecular fluctuations in the relaxation of proton intrapair dipolar order in nematic 5CB

We investigate the role that local motions and slow cooperative fluctuations have on the relaxation of the intrapair dipolar order in the nematic 5CB. With this purpose we present a theoretical and experimental systematic study which allow us to quantify the contribution from each type of molecular fluctuation to the intrapair dipolar order relaxation time, T(1D). The experimental work includes measurements of Zeeman and intrapair dipolar order relaxation times (T(1Z) and T(1D)) as a function of temperature at conventional NMR frequencies, in three complementary samples: normal and chain deuterated 4-n-pentyl-4(')-cyanobiphenyl (5CB and 5CB(d11)) and a mixture of normal 5CB and fully deuterated 4-n-pentyl-4'-cyanobiphenyl (5CB(d19)), 50% in weight. Additionally we perform T(1Z) field-cycling Larmor frequency-dependent measurements to obtain the spectral density of the cooperative fluctuations. The obtained results are as follows. (a) The cooperative molecular fluctuations have a strong relative weight in the relaxation of the intrapair dipolar order state, even at Larmor frequencies in the range of conventional NMR. (b) Alkyl chain rotations are an important relaxation mechanism of the intrapair dipolar order at megahertz frequencies. (c) Intermolecular fluctuations mediated by translational self-diffusion of the molecules is not an efficient mechanism of relaxation of the intrapair dipolar order.     

Novel CaCO3/g-C3N4 composites with enhanced charge separation and photocatalytic activity

A novel CaCO₃/graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄) photocatalyst was synthesized for the first time via a facile calcination method using CaCO₃ and melamine as precursors. The as-prepared samples were characterized using various techniques, such as scanning and transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, as well as Fourier-transform infrared, X-ray photoelectron, photoluminescence, and UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The results of the experiments confirm the successful coupling of CaCO₃ to g-C₃N₄. The photocatalytic activity of the synthesized CaCO₃/g-C₃N₄ composites was evaluated by assessing their performance in the photocatalytic degradation of crystal violet (CV) in water under visible light irradiation. The analysis shows that CaCO₃/g-C₃N₄ exhibits higher photocatalytic activity towards CV degradation (76.0%) than pristine g-C₃N₄ (21.6%) and CaCO₃ (23.2%). Radical trapping and electron spin resonance experiments show that hydroxyl radicals (OH) and holes (h⁺) are the key reactive species in the photocatalytic process. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of the composite is mainly attributed to the efficient separation rate of electron-hole pairs achieved through the incorporation of CaCO₃.     

纳米银掺杂二氧化硅复合颗粒的制备及表征

0引言金属纳米颗粒因其粒子尺寸小(1￣100nm),比表面积大,表面原子数多,表面能和表面张力随粒径的下降急剧增大而具有量子尺寸效应[1]、小尺寸效应[2]、表面效应[3]及宏观量子隧道效应[4]等,从而出现了不同于常规固体的新奇特性,如:光学性质、磁性质以及电磁学性质[5],使其在催化、信息存储及非线性光学等领域展示了广阔的应用前景[6]。虽然制备金属纳米颗粒的方法有很多[6],但是由于纳米尺寸的金属颗粒具有较高的表面能,容易发生聚集,所以如何保持其稳定性依旧是比较困难的问题。随着纳米科技的发展,人们正尝试用各种方法来解决这个问题:如…

Influence of the Size of Aromatic Chelate Ligands on the Structures of Cadmium(II) Tetracarboxylates Polymers: From 2D Layered Network to 3D Metal‐Organic Framework

To determine the influence of the size of the aromatic chelate ligands on the frameworks of metal tretracarboxylate polymers, two new coordination polymers [Cd(btc)_0.5 (2,2′‐bpy)] ( 1 ) and [Cd(btc)_0.5(phen)]·H₂O ( 2 ) (H₄btc = biphenyl‐3,3′,4,4′‐tetracarboxylic acid, 2,2′‐bpy = 2,2′‐bipyridine, phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline) have been synthesized under similar hydrothermal conditions. In complex 1 , the dimeric Cd₂ units are linked by bridging btc^4? ligand to form a 2D layered network, whereas complex 2 possesses a 3D metal‐organic framework consisting of the dimeric Cd₂ units. The differences of two metal‐organic frameworks demonstrate that the size of the rigid aromatic chelate ligands have an important effect on the structures of their complexes. Additionally, the two complexes show strong fluorescence in the solid state at room temperature.
