α-Cu_2Se精细结构的球差校正扫描透射电镜表征

目前学界对Cu_2Se低温α相的结构仍未认识清楚,而解决这一问题对理解Cu_2Se在相变过程中热电性能提升等特性具有重要意义。本文首次报道了由球差校正扫描透射电镜(STEM)拍摄到的沿■带轴的原子级分辨率高角环形暗场(HAADF)像,揭示了由Se原子以多种形式有序起伏产生的复杂结构。结合电子衍射图谱,分析了包含不同层数、通过相互组合构成α-Cu_2Se晶体的多种结构变体。使用QSTEM软件对构建的结构变体进行高分辨图像模拟,得到了与实验对应的HAADF像。该工作为更全面地理解α-Cu_2Se的结构提供了新的重要信息。

Theoretical study on two types of weak interactions between methylenecyclopropane and XY (X,Y = H,F, Cl,and Br)

We present theoretical evidence that the two types of interactions exist in the complexes formed between methylenecyclopropane (MECP) and XY (X, Y = H, F, Cl, and Br). Two seats of XY interacted with MECP are located: (a) is via the pseudo‐π bonding electron pair associated with a C? C bond of the cyclopropane ring and (b) is via the typical‐π bonding of electron pair of the C?C bond of MECP. These two types of weak interactions are compared based on the calculated geometries, interaction energies, frequency changes, and topological properties of electron density. The integration of electron density over the interatomic surface is found to be a good measure for the strength of weak interaction. Furthermore, the total electron density and separated σ and π electron densities are also computed and discussed in this article. The separated electron density shows σ electron density determined the strength and π electron density influenced the direction of the hydrogen/halogen bond. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Insight into the π‐hole···π‐electrons tetrel bonds between F2ZO (Z = C,Si, Ge) and unsaturated hydrocarbons

The intermolecular π‐hole···π‐electrons interactions between F₂ZO (Z = C, Si, Ge) molecules and unsaturated hydrocarbons including acetylene, ethylene, 1,3‐butadiene and benzene were constructed to reveal the differences of tetrel bonds forming by carbon and heavier tetrel atoms. The ab initio computation in association with topological analysis of electron density, natural bond orbital, and energy decomposition analysis demonstrate that the strength of Si···π and Ge···π tetrel bonds is much stronger than that of C···π tetrel bonds. The Si···π and Ge···π tetrel bonds exhibit covalent or partially covalent interaction nature, while the weak C···π tetrel bonds display the hallmarks of noncovalent interaction, the electrostatic interaction is the primary influencing factor. The Si···π and Ge···π interactions are determined by both the σ‐ and π‐electron densities, while the C···π interactions are dominated mainly by the π‐electron densities. The π‐hole···π‐electrons tetrel bonds are dominated by electrostatic interaction, and polarization has a comparable contribution in the Si···π and Ge···π tetrel bonds.     

Preparation and characterization of glass fiber–reinforced polyethylene terephthalate/linear low density polyethylene (GF‐PET/LLDPE) composites

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was melt blended with linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) and subsequently compounded with glass fibers (GF) as reinforcements at percentages ranging from 15 to 45 wt% of LLDPE and 5 to 30 wt% of GF. Thermal, morphological, and mechanical properties of the prepared composites were investigated. It was found that compounding PET/LLDPE blends with GF would be beneficial in producing composites that are thermally stable with good mechanical properties. For example, the impact strength of the composites containing 85/15 wt% (PET/LLDPE) at relatively high loading of GF, ie, from 15 to 30 wt%, was higher than that of the GF‐reinforced neat PET. When increasing the percentage of LLDPE in the composites, the impact strength increased with increasing GF content, and this was also better than that of GF‐reinforced PET whose impact strength drastically decreased upon increasing the GF%. The improvement in mechanical properties of the composite, we suggest, should be correlated with the morphologies of the composites where the visualized interface adhesion tended to be better at higher loadings of both LLDPE and GF.     

Synthesis,chemical properties,and CO2 electroreduction of π-conjugated polymers bearing imidazolium and imidazolinium rings in the polymer backbone

π-Conjugated polymers (CPs) bearing imidazolium and imidazolinium rings in the polymer backbone were prepared from a previously reported monomer, 1,3-bis(2,3-dimethyl-4-bromophenyl)imidazolium chloride, and a newly synthesized monomer, 1,3-bis(2,3-dimethyl-4-bromophenyl)imidazolinium chloride, via Sonogashira and Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reactions. The corresponding model compounds were also synthesized via the same reactions and monomers. The absorption maxima and onset position of the UV–vis spectra of the polymers were observed at longer wavelengths than those of the model compounds, thus revealing the presence of extended π-conjugation along the polymer backbone chain. Both polymers and model compounds were photoluminescent in solution and exhibited solvatochromism. The cast films of the polymers on the Pt and Ag electrodes were demonstrated to be effective catalysts for CO₂ electroreduction.     

Scaling Up DNA Origami Lattice Assembly

The surface-assisted hierarchical assembly of DNA origami nanostructures is a promising route to fabricate regular nanoscale lattices. In this work, the scalability of this approach is explored and the formation of a homogeneous polycrystalline DNA origami lattice at the mica-electrolyte interface over a total surface area of 18.75 cm² is demonstrated. The topological analysis of more than 50 individual AFM images recorded at random locations over the sample surface showed only minuscule and random variations in the quality and order of the assembled lattice. The analysis of more than 450 fluorescence microscopy images of a quantum dot-decorated DNA origami lattice further revealed a very homogeneous surface coverage over cm² areas with only minor boundary effects at the substrate edges. At total DNA costs of € 0.12 per cm², this large-scale nanopatterning technique holds great promise for the fabrication of functional surfaces.     

New ferromagnets of Sr8ARe3Cu4O24 (A=Sr, Ca) with an ordered perovskite structure

New phases Sr₈ARe₃Cu₄O₂₄ (A=Sr,Ca) were discovered under high-pressure/high-temperature condition. X-ray powder diffraction and electron diffraction studies for these phases indicated that they have an ordered perovskite-type structure with cubic lattices of ∼8 Å. They showed ferromagnetism at room temperature when they were synthesized under high-oxygen-pressure condition. The Ca-containing phase has a very high T_c of 440 K with a spontaneous magnetization of ∼1 μ_B/f.u.
