Photo-orientation at liquid crystal—polymer interfaces

It is suggested that liquid crystal—polymer interfaces are coupled systems, in which the components mutually influence the orientational state of each other. The photo-orientation process at liquid crystal-polymer interfaces provides a striking example of such a coupling. Experiments show that the anisotropic structure generated by polarised light at a polymer surface is strongly affected by the phase of the liquid crystal covering the polymer. Photo-orientation is significantly more efficient when the liquid crystal is in the isotropic phase than when it exhibits orientational order. The observations are interpreted by assuming that in the smectic and nematic phases the liquid crystal stabilises to a large extent polymer chain-segments aligned parallel to the director, while it blocks the photo-induced formation of chain-segments in the perpendicular direction. Other situations, in which the coupling between the liquid crystal and the polymer can be important, are also discussed briefly.     

Improved Ligand-Field Theory with Effect of Electron-Phonon Interaction

Traditional ligand-field theory has to be improved by taking into account both “pure electronic” contribution and electron-phonon interaction one (including lattice-vibrational relaxation energy). By means of improved ligand-field theory, R₁, R₂, R₃', R₂', and R₁' lines, U band, ground-state zero-field-splitting (GSZFS), and ground-state g factors of ruby and/or GSGG:Cr³⁺ as well as thermal shifts of GSZFS, R₁ line and R₂ line of ruby have been calculated. The results are in very good agreement with the experimental data. Moreover, it is found that the value of cubic-field parameter given by traditional ligand-field theory is inappropriately large. For thermal shifts of GSZFS, R₁ line and R₂ line of ruby, several conclusions have also been obtained.     

亚铁磁Heusler合金Mn2CoGa和Mn2CoAl掺杂Cr,Fe和Co的局域铁磁结构

通过实验和计算的方法研究了Mn₂CoM_xGa_1-x 和Mn₂CoM_xAl_1-x (M=Cr, Fe, Co)掺杂系列合金样品. 研究发现, 在共价作用的影响下, Fe和Co原子占A位, 使被取代的MnA (-2.1 μ_B)变成MnD (3.2 μ_B), 在最近邻的强交换作用下亚铁磁基体中形成了MnB-CoC-MnD局域铁磁性结构, 使分子磁矩的增量最高可达6.18 μ_B. Fe, Co 掺杂后建立同样的局域铁磁结构, 居里温度的变化趋势却不同. 实验观察到Mn₂Co_1+xAl_1-x中掺杂容忍度高达x=0.64, 远高于在Mn₂CoGa中(x=0.36)的结果; 以及随着Al的减少, 合金由B2有序向A2混乱转变等现象, 为共价作用对合金结构稳定的影响提供了证据. 磁测量中发现Cr掺杂后磁矩增量高达3.65 μ_B以及居里温度快速上升的反常现象, 意味着对占位规则的违背.

Time Evolution of Vibration-Induced Excited State Decay

A simple model consisting of two electronic levels and one vibrational mode (phonon) was theoretically studied. The electronic-vibrational interaction was linear in the vibrational displacement. The vibrational mode was taken in the harmonic approximation and was attached to the thermal bath formed by the ambient environment. The kinetic constants of the vibrational dissipation were of the second order in the vibrational-bath coupling and were taken in the Markovian limit. Although, depending on the parameters of the model, different curves of the non-radiative vibration-induced excited state decay were obtained, in general, three time intervals, corresponding to different physical behaviour, were found. In the short-time interval, small oscillations superimposed on the excited state decay were observed. They were determined by the vibrational frequency and influenced by electronic-vibrational coupling. In the middle-time interval, almost quasi-exponential decay was detected; its rate constant increased with stronger electronic-vibrational interaction and speed of vibrational relaxation. In the long-time interval, the decay was very slow and, under special conditions, even an asymptotic non-zero excited state population was observed. Its value increased with the strength of the off-diagonal electron-vibrational coupling. Links of the parameters of the model with quantum chemical terms were estimated.
