Anion-controlled geometrically different Cu(II) ion-based coordination polymers and green synthetic route for copper nanoparticles: a combined experimental and computational insight

Abstract

The Cu(II) ion-based polymeric complexes [Cu(2,2′-bpy).(N₃)₂]_n (I), [Cu₂(2,2′-bpy)₂.(N₃)₄]_n (II), and monomeric complex [Cu(2,2′-bpy).(NO₃)₂].5H₂O (III) have been synthesized with rigid (–N₃) and aromatic (2,2′-bpy = 2,2′-bipyridyl) ligand. The rigid azide group is responsible for the formation of 1-D extended structures in complexes I and II where as in the case of complex III, a monomeric complex is formed due to lack of a bridging group like –N₃, resulting in limitation in dimensionality. The thermal stability of the 1-D complexes is comparatively higher than monomeric complex III. Hirshfeld surface analysis has also been applied to investigate other weak interactions and compared with the results from single-crystal X-ray data. Due to the presence of paramagnetic metal centers and long metal···metal distances in complexes I and II and presence of lattice water molecules in complex III, decrease in luminescence intensities have been observed. To attain further insights into the aforementioned interesting species, some chemical concepts such as highest occupied molecular orbital–lowest unoccupied molecular orbital gap, electronic chemical potential, chemical hardness, and electrophilicity index, identified as a derivative of electronic energy, have also been emphasized employing the quantum chemical calculations in the framework of the density functional theory method using the M06-2X/ 6-31G** level of study. Further, these complexes have been used to synthesize copper nanoparticles by applying a green synthetic route.     

Phipps's lagrangian and hamiltonian

In this work it is derived Phipps's Lagrangian function and Phipps's Hamiltonian function. This allows the utilization of Phipps's interaction in the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian frameworks.Dedicated to Thomas E. Phipps, Jr. on the occasion of his 70th birthday (1995).     

Search for a precursor crystal-to-crystal phase transition to amorphization in α-GeO2 and α-AlPO4 under pressure

Recent X-ray diffraction studies on α-quartz (SiO₂) by Kingmaet al [1], have shown the occurrence of a reversible, crystalline-to-crystalline, phase transition just prior to amorphization at ≈ 21 GPa. This precursor transition has also been confirmed by our recent molecular dynamics simulation study [2]. In order to investigate the possibility of a similar behaviour in other isostructural compounds, which also undergo pressure induced amorphization, α-GeO₂ and α-AlPO₄ (berlinite form) were studied using energy dispersive X-ray diffraction. In either of these materials, no such phase transition is detected prior to amorphization. The onset of amorphization and its reversal is found to be time dependent in GeO₂.

团簇Aun+1-1、AunCr-1 (n=1-10)吸附CO的密度泛函理论研究

采用密度泛函理论对CO在阴离子团簇Aun+1-1、AunCr-1(n=1-10))表面的吸附做了系统研究.结果表明,团簇Aun+1CO-1、AunCrCO-1的基态结构是在团簇Aun+1-1、AunCr-1最低能量结构的基础上吸附CO形成; 吸附后的CO键长变长,振动频率减小,表明CO分子被活化;取值相同时,AunCrCO-1的平均结合能高,表明团簇Aun+1CO-1掺杂Cr后稳定性升高.HOMO-LOMO能隙结果表明Aun+1CO-1替代掺杂Cr原子后团簇的化学活性得到了提升,AunCrCO-1、Aun+1CO-1团簇能隙具有奇偶振荡的现象;轨道电荷分析表明CO与团簇相互作用实质是C原子与成键Au原子或Cr原子间转移电荷,CO在与团簇相互作用过程中O原子轨道电荷分布几乎没有发生变化.     

Some noncoercive parabolic equations with lower order terms in divergence form

This paper deals with existence and regularity results for the problem $ \cases{u_t-\mathrm{div}(a(x,t,u )\nabla u)=-\mathrm{div}(u\,E) \qquad in \Omega\times (0,T),\cr u=0 \qquad on \partial \Omega\times (0,T), \cr u (0)= u_0 \qquad in \Omega ,\cr} $ under various assumptions on E and $ u_0 $. The main difculty in studying this problem is due to the presence of the term div(uE), which makes the differential operator non coercive on the "energy space" $ L^2 (0, T; H_0^1 (\Omega)) $.AMS Subject Classification: 35K10, 35K15, 35K65.

二维变系数扩散方程交替分组显格式的稳定性分析

1.引言 由于高性能并行计算机的出现和并行计算的推动,十多年来,抛物型方程有限差分并行算法设计与分析一直受到关注. D.J.Evalns和A.R.B.Abdullah(1983,[1,2]利用Saul’yev非对称格式对常系数抛物方程设计了AGE(交替分组显格式)算法,并用矩阵分析的方法证明了该算法的无条件稳定性.该算法有明显的并行性,倍受推崇,且计算的实践([8],[9])表明它对变系数的抛物方程也是可行的,但稳定性的分析成为一个难点.张宝琳([3])在一维情

A Fourier series formula for energy of measures with applications to Riesz products

In this paper we derive a formula relating the energy and the Fourier transform of a finite measure on the -dimensional torus which is similar to the well-known formula for measures on .

We apply the formula to obtain estimates on the Hausdorff dimension of Riesz product measures. These give improvements on the earlier, classical results which were based on completely different techniques.
