The growth and modification of materials via ion–surface processing

A wide variety of gas phase ions with kinetic energies from 1–10⁷ eV increasingly are being used for the growth and modification of state-of-the-art material interfaces. Ions can be used to deposit thin films; expose fresh interfaces by sputtering; grow mixed interface layers from ions, ambient neutrals, and/or surface atoms; modify the phases of interfaces; dope trace elements into interface regions; impart specific chemical functionalities to a surface; toughen materials; and create micron- and nanometer-scale interface structures. Several examples are developed which demonstrate the variety of technologically important interface modification that is possible with gas phase ions. These examples have been selected to demonstrate how the choice of the ion and its kinetic energy controls modification and deposition for several different materials. Examples are drawn from experiments, computer simulations, fundamental research, and active technological applications. Finally, a list of research areas is provided for which ion–surface modification promises considerable scientific and technological advances in the new millennium.     

Electronic excitation and singlet-triplet coupling in uracil tautomers and uracil-water complexes

Electronic spectra of uracil in its diketo (lactam) form and five enol (lactim) tautomeric forms have been investigated by means of combined density functional and configuration interaction methods. We have simulated the effects of hydrogen bonding with a protic solvent by recomputing the spectrum of uracil in the presence of two, four, or six water molecules. Geometries of the electronic ground state and several low-lying excited states have been optimized. Spin-orbit coupling has been determined for correlated wavefunctions employing a non-empirical spin-orbit mean-field approach. In accord with experiment, we find the diketo tautomer to be the most stable one. The calculations confirm that the first absorption band arises from the ¹( π↦π^*) S ₀↦S ₂ excitation. The experimentally observed vibrational structure in this band originates from a breathing mode of the six ring. Complexation with water molecules is seen to cause a significant blue shift of n↦π^* excitations while leaving π↦π^* excitations nearly uninfluenced. Computed radiative lifetimes are presented for the experimentally known weak phosphorescence from the π↦π^* excited T₁ state. Among the uracil lactim tautomers, one is particularly interesting from a spectroscopic point of view. In this tautomer, the π↦π^* excitation gives rise to the S₁ state.

Calculating vibrational mode contributions to sound absorption in excitable gas mixtures by decomposing multi-relaxation absorption spectroscopy

Sound relaxational absorption spectroscopy of excitable gas mixtures is potentially applied for gas composition detection. The relaxation of vibrational modes of gas molecules determines the sound relaxational absorption. However, to our knowledge, the contribution of each vibrational mode available in gas mixtures to sound multi-relaxation absorption has not been calculated in existing literature. In this paper, based on the decoupled expression of the effective isochoric molar heat for a gas mixture, a sound multi-relaxation absorption spectrum is decomposed into the sum of single-relaxation spectra. From this decomposable characteristic, the contribution of each vibrational mode available in the gaseous medium to the multi-relaxation absorption is obtained at room temperature. For various gas compositions including carbon dioxide, methane, nitrogen etc., the calculated contributions of vibrational modes are verified by the comparison with experiment data. We prove the following views with quantifiable outcomes that the primary molecular relaxation process associated with the lowest mode plays the major role in acoustic relaxational absorption of gas mixtures; the mode with lower vibrational frequency provides higher contribution to the primary relaxation process. This work could provide a deeper insight into the relationship between the sound relaxational absorption spectroscopy and gas molecules.     

对苯二甲酸-双(4-甲氧基苯酯)及其衍生物的结构与光谱

在密度泛函理论B3LYP/6-31 G*水平上计算研究了对苯二甲酸-双(4-甲氧基苯酯)及其OH和F腰接取代化合物的几何结构与红外振动光谱和电子光谱性质。研究发现这类化合物的酯基碳氧原子与苯环形成不同的离域大π键,空间位阻效应和共轭效应使三个苯环位于不同平面上,二面角在53°～59°范围。含时密度泛函理论计算第一激发态的电子垂直跃迁能,表明最大吸收光谱全部源于分子中HOMO→LUMO的π→π*跃迁,对应的最大吸收波长数值位于370～384nm之间,属于紫外区。腰接基对这类化合物的几何结构影响不大,仅由于空间位阻效应,使苯环(1)和苯环(2)之间的二面角增大3°～4°,但对其所在苯环的变形及其氢的振动有一定影响。同时,腰接羟基使HOMO→LUMO的能隙略有减小,最大吸收波长略有增大。腰接氟时因弱的共轭效应使得HOMO→LUMO的能隙减小0.1209eV,导致最大吸收波长红移14nm。

Noncontact atomic force microscopy: Bond imaging and beyond

It was a long-cherished dream for chemists to take a direct look at chemical bonding, a fundamental component of chemistry. This dream was finally accomplished by the state-of-the-art noncontact atomic force microscopy (NC-AFM) equipped with qPlus force sensors and carbon monoxide (CO) functionalized tips. The resolved interconnectivity between atoms and molecules in NC-AFM frequency shift images is interpreted as chemical bonding, providing essential knowledge of the bond length, bond angle and even bond order. The featured contrast of different chemical bonds can serve as fingerprints for further interpretation of chemical structures toward unknown species synthesized on surfaces. This breakthrough enriches characterization tools for surface science and brings our understanding of on-surface reactions to a new level. Beyond bond imaging, the application of NC-AFM has been extended to quantifying interatomic interactions, identifying three-dimensional nanostructures, manipulating molecules and reactions, as well as determining molecular electronic characteristics. Moreover, some recent efforts address the improvement of the usability and versatility of the bond-resolved NC-AFM technique, including high-resolution molecular investigation on bulk insulators, application-specific tip modification, stable bond imaging above liquid helium temperature and autonomous experimentation implemented by artificial intelligence.     

Investigation on thermal conductivity of graphene/Si heterostructure with different defect ratios and sizes

The thermal conductivity (TC) of graphene/Si heterostructures with different defect ratios and sizes was investigated using the molecular dynamics method. As the defect ratio of heterostructure increased, the TC decreased first sharply and then slowly under a high temperature stage. The TC of heterostructure also showed a significant size effect. This phenomenon was explained by phonon dispersion and flip competition. The phonon density of states for the graphene heterostructure with different defect ratios and sizes was obtained to understand the thermal transport mechanism. Analysis showed that with the increase in the defect ratio and when the flexural modes of the heterostructure became weak, the longitudinal and transverse modes gradually dominated the phonon transport. This phenomenon can be explained that the Si atom vibration was harder in the vertical plane than that of graphene. The vibration mode hindered the heat carrier of graphene and affected heat transport to the heterostructure.
