NMR Studies of Drugs. Methaqualone. Approaches to Rigorous 1H and 13C Assignments with Applications of Achiral and Chiral Shift Reagents

The ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of methaqualone, 1, have been extensively studied using one and two-dimensional techniques. These 300 MHz ¹H and 75 MHz ¹³C studies have allowed rigorous assignments to be made for the methyl groups and the quinazolinone nucleus. The 60 MHz ¹H spectra for 1 in CDCl₃ have been examined with

Low-lying states of 6He studied via the 6Li(t,3He)6He reaction

We present the recent experimental results on the ⁶He structure studied by the ⁶Li(t, ³He)⁶He reaction at 336 MeV. Above the conspicuous peaks for ground and first excited states for ⁶He, we have observed a broad structures at E _x∼ 5 MeV, and E _x∼ 15 MeV. The angular distribution of this structure exhibits the dominance of a ΔL = 1 transition, indicating the existence of intruder dipole states at low excitation energies in ⁶He. A slight admixture of positive-parity states in this structure has been indicated as well. Received: 1 May 2001 / Accepted: 4 December 2001     

Growth and spectroscopic characterization of Er: Sr3Y(BO3)3 crystal

This paper reports the growth and spectroscopic characterization of Er³⁺:Sr₃Y(BO₃)₃ crystal. Er³⁺:Sr₃Y(BO₃)₃ crystal with dimensions up to ∅20×35 mm³ has been grown by Czochralski method. The polarized spectroscopic properties of Er³⁺:Sr₃Y(BO₃)₃ crystal were investigated. Based on the Judd-Ofelt theory, the effective intensity parameters Ω_t were obtained: Ω₂=1.71×10⁻²⁰ cm², Ω₄=1.39×10⁻²⁰ cm², Ω₆=0.74×10⁻²⁰ cm² for π-polarization, and Ω₂=1.77×10⁻²⁰ cm², Ω₄=1.44×10⁻²⁰ cm², Ω₆=0.65×10⁻²⁰ cm² for σ-polarization. The emission cross-section σ_em was calculated to be 4.75×10⁻²¹ cm² for π-polarization at 1536 nm and 6.30×10⁻²¹ cm² for σ-polarization at 1537 nm. The investigated results showed that Er³⁺:Sr₃Y(BO₃)₃ crystal may be regarded as a potential laser host material for 1.55 μm IR solid-state lasers.     

Optical and structural characterization of KBr crystals doped cadmium bromide (CdBr2)

In this paper we demonstrate the presence of CdBr₂ and cadmium aggregates in KBr matrix during Czochralski growth of KBr crystals. The chemical decomposition of CdBr₂ due to high temperature of crystallisation and reformation of cadmium bromide seems to be responsible for this effect.     

On the high-resistivity contacts to YBa2Cu3O7 thin films, electrical behavior in the regime of high temperatures and high-bias voltages

We prepared in-situ Au contacts on high-quality epitaxial YBa₂Cu₃O₇ (YBCO) films. Very high specific contact resistivity values up to ∼10⁻² Ω cm² at 4.2 K were obtained on 12×5 μm² contact areas. This resistivity value decreased by two orders of magnitude as the temperature was raised to room temperature. In the temperature range T<200 K, the contacts showed non-ohmic behavior suggesting the presence of a well-defined insulating native Y-Ba-Cu-O barrier between the two electrodes. The electrical transport in this barrier layer was analyzed in the limit of high temperatures and high voltages to follow Mott's variable-range hopping conduction mechanism with physically reasonable parameters describing the localized states in the barrier. The high-resistivity contacts were tested successfully in quasiparticles injection experiments where the critical current I_c of the YBCO microbridge could be strongly suppressed on injection of an additional current through the contact into the superconducting channel.     

Synthesis of aqueous dispersion of graphenes via reduction of graphite oxide in the solution of conductive polymer

Graphene sheets were produced by chemical reduction of graphite oxides in the solution of ionic conductive polymer, Nafion. The obtained graphene, coated with Nafion, can be re-dispersed in water, and readily forms stable dispersed state. The polymer-coated graphene had been characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, UV-vis and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The PEDOT film with Nafion-coated graphene increased significantly from 0.25 S/cm for pure PEDOT film and reached 12 S/cm. Further, the films of PEDOT doped Nafion-coated graphene had also higher conductivities compared to films doped PSS-coated graphene.     

O-vacancy and surface on CeO2: A first-principles study

Atomic and electronic structures of CeO₂ (1 1 1), (1 1 0) and (1 0 0) surfaces are investigated using the first-principles density functional theory taking into account the on-site Coulomb interaction. Both the stoichiometric and O-deficient surfaces are examined in order to clarify the overall features. The CeO₂ (1 1 1) is found to be the most stable surface, followed by the (1 1 0) and (1 0 0) surfaces, consistent with experimental observations. Three surfaces exhibit different features of relaxation. Large relaxations are found at the (1 1 0) and (1 0 0) surfaces, while very small changes are observed at the (1 1 1) surface. It is found that the O-vacancy occurs more readily at the (1 1 0) surface as compared with the (1 1 1) surface. Furthermore, the formation energies of the O-vacancy in the surfaces are lower than that in the bulk. The energetically favorable O-vacancy locates in the second O-atomic layer for the (1 1 1) while at the surface layer for the (1 1 0). The excess electrons left with the removal of the O atom are distributed in the first two layers with certain (a considerable) fraction filling the Ce-4f states.
