A quantitative method for dual‐pass electrostatic force microscopy phase measurements

Electrostatic force microscopy (EFM) has become a powerful tool for investigating charges on surfaces. The use of phase measurement in EFM is a direct and fast way to detect electrostatic force gradients, but only qualitatively. With the dual‐pass scheme, the phase signal at lifted height is often assumed to exclude any influences from the topography, but it does not. We report the collection of both topography and phase data by EFM on charged, micron‐sized metal wires. In order to quantify the electrostatic force, a cone model and finite element analysis are provided to integrate the force gradient from the phase signal.

Influence of crystallization conditions on the crystalline transformation behavior of nylon 10 14

Three kinds of nylon 10 14 crystals with different perfections were prepared under various crystallization conditions. The Brill transition behavior of these nylon 10 14 crystals was investigated by variable-temperature X-ray diffraction. It was found that the crystallization conditions influence the Brill transition temperature greatly. The Brill transition temperature of the lamellar crystals grown from dilute solution is so high that no Brill transition temperature can be observed before melting. However, for crystals postannealed at 125 °C, the Brill transition temperature is as low as 130 °C. The results show that the Brill transition behavior of nylons is strongly dependent on the crystallization conditions, for example, the perfections of the crystals.     

Efficient synthesis of bromocyclopenta[b] indoles via a bromination ‐ reduction sequence

Substituted cyclopenta[b]indoles are selectively brominated in good yields with excess pyridine ‐ Br₂ charge‐transfer complex (PyBr₂) in a one‐pot reaction to provide 5 and/or 7‐bromoindoles. The mechanism involves the formation of an adduct (addition of bromine on the central double bond) which is subsequently reduced in situ with Zn and AcOH. A variety of functional groups in the cyclopentyl and the benzenoid rings are tolerated.

Correlation and response functions with non-Markovian dissipation: a reduced Liouville-space theory

Based on a recently developed quantum dissipation formulation [R. X. Xu and Y. J. Yan, J. Chem. Phys. 116, 9196 (2002)], we present a reduced Liouville-space approach to evaluate the response and correlation functions of dissipative systems. The weak system-bath interaction is treated properly for its effects on the initial state, the evolution, and the correlation between coherent driving and non-Markovian dissipation. Numerical demonstration shows this correlated effect cannot be neglected even in the calculation of linear response quantities that do not explicitly depend on external fields. Highlighted in this paper is also the proper choice of theory among various formulations in the weak system-bath interaction regime.     

THE STRUCTURE OF $\[\Pi \]$ SPACES (I)

The spectral theory of selfadjoint operators and unitary operators in Hilbert space has been successfully generalized to $\[{\Pi _k}\]$ space. However, there are only a few results for the spectral theory of selfadjoint operators and unitary operators in $\[\Pi \]$ space. One of the important reasons is that the structure of $\[\Pi \]$ space is more complex than that of $\[{\Pi _k}\]$ space. This paper and the forthcoming paper "The structure of $\[\Pi \]$ space (II)" will mainly be dealt with the structure of $\[\Pi \]$ spaces, which will be used to further study the operators in $\[\Pi \]$ spaces.

Crystal Structure, Thermal Stability and Luminescence of Coordination Polymer [Cd（BBP）（p-PDOA）]n

Hydrothermal reaction of Cd（NO3）2·4H2O with bbp and p-PDOAH2 at 140 ℃ yielded a novel 1D cadmium（Ⅱ） coordination polymer, [Cd（bbp）（p-PDOA）]n （bbp=2,6-bis（benzimidazol-2-yl）pyridine, p-PDOA=p-phenylenedioxydiacetate dianion）, in which CdN3O4 pentagonal bipyramids were linked by p-PDOA ligands in a bis-bidentate mode to construct a zigzag chain with the adjacent Cd…Cd distance of 1.14（1） nm, There exists a 2D supramolecular network linked by π-π stacking with a face-to-face distance of 0.35（1） nm between the 2,6-bis（benzimidazol-2-yl） pyridine ligands and hydrogen-bonding interactions （0.27（4） nm）. A 3D supramolecular network was further constructed by these non-covalent interactions between the zippers. The TG/DTG showed that its chain skeleton was thermally stable up to 389 ℃ and the blue fluorescent emission of the complex was determined at 428 nm in a solid state with its long decay lifetime of 7.24 ns.     

Ultraviolet photodissociation dynamics of the SH radical

Ultraviolet (UV) photodissociation dynamics of jet-cooled SH radical (in X 2pi(3/2), nu"=0-2) is studied in the photolysis wavelength region of 216-232 nm using high-n Rydberg atom time-of-flight technique. In this wavelength region, anisotropy beta parameter of the H-atom product is approximately -1, and spin-orbit branching fractions of the S(3P(J)) product are close to S(3P2):S(3P1):S(3P0)=0.51:0.36:0.13. The UV photolysis of SH is via a direct dissociation and is initiated on the repulsive 2sigma- potential-energy curve in the Franck-Condon region after the perpendicular transition 2sigma(-)-X 2pi. The S(3P(J)) product fine-structure state distribution approaches that in the sudden limit dissociation on the single repulsive 2sigma- state, but it is also affected by the nonadiabatic couplings among the repulsive 4sigma-, 2sigma-, and 4pi states, which redistribute the photodissociation flux from the initially excited 2sigma- state to the 4sigma- and 4pi states. The bond dissociation energy D0(S-H)=29,245+/-25 cm(-1) is obtained.     

Grid‐like Cobalt(II) Layered Complex with an Unprecedented Double 1,2‐Bis(1,2,4‐triazole‐1‐yl)methane Bridges

A novel two‐dimensional cobalt complex, [Co(btrm)₂(dca)]ClO₄ ( 1 , btrm = 1,2‐bis(1,2,4‐triazole‐1‐yl)methane, dca = dicyanamide), was synthesized and characterized. X‐ray diffraction analyses reveal that the title complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/m with a = 29.507(13)Å, b = 17.804(8) Å, c = 14.709(7) Å, β = 119.916(7)°, Z = 12, and R₁ = 0.0784, wR₂ = 0.2041. The cobalt atom involves a six‐coordinated CoN₆ environment, with a distorted octahedral coordination. Two btrm ligands connect the Co^II atoms with the exodentate nitrogen atoms on the 4‐position of triazole rings to form a sixteen‐membered rhombic grid. The unprecedented double btrm bridges and μ_1,5‐dca bridge connect the cobalt atoms to form a two‐dimensional grid‐like layered structure. The spectroscopic and magnetic properties have also been investigated.
