Lithium insertion into In2S3 studied by perturbed γ-γ angular correlation

Li_xIn₂S₃ was electrochemically prepared with different small amounts x of lithium (0?x?0.13) in order to maintain the initial crystallographic structure of the thiospinel In₂S₃. About 10¹² radioactive ¹¹¹In ions have been implanted into these samples at 400 keV to perform PAC experiments in the temperature range from 10 to 773 K. The results are compared to previous experiments with undoped In₂S₃ samples. According to the structure of In₂S₃ in the β-phase, which belongs to the I4₁/amd space group having a unit cell with 32 In and 48 S atoms and the cell parameters α=7.61 Å and c=32.28 Å, three different electric field gradients were observed. Within two different temperature ranges dynamical EFGs occur, which are clearly influenced by the insertion of Lithium. The strong dependence of one EFG on the Li concentration x can be correlated to the effective charge of the In ions. This correlation is discussed with respect to XRD analyses of the Li_xIn₂S₃ samples and to XANES measurements on a similar sample.     

Das erste Titanat mit „Stuffed Pyrgoms”︁: RbNa3Li12[TiO4]4 = RbNa3Li8{Li[TiO4]}4

The First Titanate with ?Stuffed Pyrgoms”?: RbNa₃Li₁₂[TiO₄]₄ = RbNa₃Li₈{Li[TiO₄]}₄ By heating a well grounded mixture of the binary oxides Rb₂O, Na₂O, Li₂O, and TiO₂ [Rb:Na:Li:Ti = 1.1:3.1:12.5:4.0; 780°C, 41 d] we obtained RbNa₃Li₈{Li[TiO₄]}₄ as colourless platelike crystals. This first titanate with ?stuffed pyrgoms”? is isostructural with RbNa₃Li₈{Li[SiO₄]}₄, CsKNa₂Li₈{Li[SiO₄]}₄ and CsKNaLi₉{Li[SiO₄]}₄ [2]. The compound crystallizes tetragonal I4/m with a = 1 125.8(1) pm and c = 652.4(1) pm (Guinier-Simon-Data, Z = 2). The structure was determined by four-cyrcle-data (Siemens AED2, MoK) and leds to the residual values R = 3.7% and R_w = 3.1% (additional data see text). The Madelung Part of Lattice Energy (MAPLE), Effective Coordination Numbers (ECoN), Mean Fictive Ionic Raddii (MEFIR) and the Charge Distribution in Solids (CHARDI) are calculated and discussed.     

Phosphinophosphiniden-Phosphorane tBu2P?P = P(R)tBu2 aus Li(THF)2[η2-(tBu2P)2P] und Alkylhalogeniden

The Phosphinophosphinidene-phosphoranes ^tBu₂P? P = P(R)^tBu₂ from Li(THF)₂[η²-(^tBu₂P)₂P] and Alkyl Halides We report the formation of ^tBu₂P? P = P(R)^tBu₂ a and (^tBu₂)₂PR b (with R = Me, Et, ⁿPr, ⁱPr, ⁿBu, PhCH₂, H₂C = CH? CH₂ and CF₃) reactions of Li(THF)₂[η²-(^tBu₂P)₂P] 2 with MeCl, MeI, EtCl, EtBr, ⁿPrCl, ⁿPrBr, ⁱPrCl, ⁿBuBr, PhCH₂Cl, H₂C = CH? CH₂Cl or CF₃Br. In THF solutions the ylidic compounds a predominate, whereas in pentane the corresponding triphosphanes b are preferrably formed. With ClCH₂? CH = CH₂ only b is produced; CF₃Br however yields both ^tBu₂P? P = P(Br)^tBu₂ and ^tBu₂P? P = P(CF₃)^tBu₂, but no b . The ratio of a:b is influenced by the reaction temperature, too. The compounds ^tBu₂P? P = P(Et)^tBu₂ 4a and (^tBu₂P)₂PEt 4 b , e. g., are produced in a ratio of 4:3 at ?70°C in THF, and 1:1 at 20°C; whereas 1:1 is obtained at ?70°C in pentane, and 1:2 at 20°C. Neither ^tBuCl nor H₂C = CHCl react with 2 . The compounds a decompose thermally or under UV irradiation forming ^tBu₂PR and the cyclophosphanes (^tBu₂P)_nP_n.     

R?ntgenspektrometrische Bestimmung von Eisen-55 in Luftstaub- und Niederschlagsproben

Zusammenfassung Eisen-55 wurde in Neuherberg bei München seit März 1970 in monatlich gesammelten Luftstaubproben und seit Januar 1971 in Monatsniederschlagsproben bestimmt. Nach dem Veraschen der Proben wurde Eisen durch Extraktion' mit Di-iso-propyläther abgetrennt. Zur weiteren Entfernung störender Radionuklide des Fallouts wurde eine Ionenaustauschertrennung angeschlossen. Nach der elektrolytischen Abscheidung des Eisens auf Kupferplättchen wurden die Röntgenspektren mit einem Proportionalzähler sowie einem Si(Li)-Detektor aufgenommen.Die mittlere spezifische Luftaktivität betrug in Neuherberg 1,0 fCi/m³ im Jahr 1970 (ab März), 1,2 fCi/m³ im Jahr 1971 und 0,36 fCi/m³ im Jahr 1972. Die dem Boden durch den Niederschlag zugeführte Aktivität wurde zu 697 pCi/m² · Jahr für 1971 und 178 pCi/m² · Jahr für 1972 bestimmt.Vortrag anläßlich der Tagung Spurenanalyse, 2. bis 5.

Phase study of the system Li2Se-In2Se3

The binary system Li₂Se-In₂Se₃ was investigated in the range of 40 to 100 mol% In₂Se₃ by thermoanalytical and X-ray methods. The system is characterized by two eutectic points. Beside the two binary components and the known ternary compound LiInSe2 another ternary compound crystallizes in this binary system at 83.3 mol% In₂Se₃. This compound was identified as LiIn₅Se₈. In contrast to (Cu, Ag)^IB₅ ^IIIC₈ ^VI compounds such as CuIn₅S₈ [1] it does not crystallize in the spinel structure. LiIn₅Se₈ shows a stratified structure. The melting point was determined to be at 810°C. Starting from room temperature up to the melting point no phase transitions were observed. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Surface film formation on a graphite electrode in Li‐ion batteries: AFM and XPS study

The formation of a passivation film (solid electrolyte interphase, SEI) at the surface of the negative electrode of full LiCoO₂/graphite lithium‐ion cells using LiPF₆ (1M ) in carbonate solvents as electrolyte was investigated by means of x‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The analyses were carried out at different potentials of the first and the fifth cycles, showing the potential‐dependent character of the surface‐film species formation. These species were mainly identified as Li₂CO₃ up to 3.8 V and LiF up to 4.2 V. This study shows the formation of the SEI during charging and its partial dissolution during discharge.

Über Perrhenate. 3 Zum Aufbau des Mesoperrhenates Na3[ReO5]

About Perrhenates. 3 On the Structure of the Mesoperrhenate Na₃[ReO₅] By tempering powder samples (prepared from mixtures of binary oxides: Na₂O₂/ReO₂ and Na₂O/ReO₃ respectively, Na : Re = 3 : 1, Ar and O₂ atmosphere respectively, 400–450°C, corundum boat) in a closed Ag cylinder (500–550°C, 10 d) yellow single crystals of Na₃ReO₅, sensitive to moisture, were grown. The compound crystallizes trigonal, space group P3₁, P3₂ respectively, with a = 5.544(1), c = 13.580(7) Å, Z = 3, d_rö. = 4.62 g/cm³. The crystal structure [4-circle diffractometer data, 1091 I₀(hkl), AgKα, R = 6.14, R_w = 6.08%] is characterized by “isolated” bipyramids ReO₅. Na⁺ ions are occupying all the tetrahedral (Na2, Na3) and octahedral (Na1) holes of the pseudocubic face centred (c/a = 2.441) Re part of the lattice; resulting in a Na₃Re kation framework corresponding to the Li₃Bi type of structure. Effective Coordination Numbers (ECoN), the Madelung Part of Lattice energy (MAPLE) and the charge distribution (CHARDI) are computed and discussed.
