Effects of interface dislocations on properties of ferroelectric thin films

Effects of interfacial dislocations on properties of thin-film ferroelectric materials, such as the self-polarization distribution, Curie temperature, dielectric constant and the switching behaviors, are investigated via the system dynamics based on the Landau-Devonshire functional. Dislocation generation in the film is found to reduce the overall self-polarization and the Curie temperature. The spatial variations are both very strong, particularly in the immediate neighborhood of the dislocation cores. In agreement with previous results based on a stationary model, a dead layer exists near the film/substrate interface, in which the average self-polarization is much reduced. Moreover, it is evident from our results that interface dislocations play an important role in suppressing the remnant polarization and the coercive field of the polarization.

Improved description of the orbital relaxation effect by practical use of the self‐energy

The self‐energy shift in the orbital relaxation (OR) term of the polarization propagator complete through the second‐order is presented. In combination with the optimal damping parameter in the OR term, the modified propagator produces the excitation energy of the coupled‐cluster with singles and doubles (CCSD) accuracy. The self‐energy shift requires the floating‐point operation of , where N refers to the magnitude of the molecular size. Because the second‐order polarization propagator requires the floating‐point operation of , the additional computational effort to construct the self‐energy is negligibly small. Numerical results are shown for several molecules including glycine, 2,3,5,6‐tetrafluorobenzene, and naphthalene, and promising agreements with those of CCSD are confirmed within less than 0.2 eV. The basis set dependence is also tested for the water molecule using aug‐cc‐pV NZ (N = D–7), where this newly developed approach mimics the behavior of the CCSD values. The self‐energy shifting for the second‐order response matrix in combination with the use of a dumping parameter is efficiently implemented for calculations of medium‐sized molecular systems, including glycine and naphthalene. The developed approach provides CCSD‐like accuracy at a more affordable computational expense. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Enantioselective recognition of amines with an atropisomeric 1,8-bisphenolnaphthalene

1,8-Bis[5′(2′-hydroxy-4′-methylbiphenyl)]naphthalene, 2, was prepared from 1,8-dibromonaphthalene and 4-methoxy-2-methylphenylboronic acid in four steps with 51% overall yield. The axially chiral anti-isomer of 2 is stable to racemization at room temperature and the free energy of activation for the conversion of the anti-isomer to the syn-form was determined as 110.0 kJ/mol at 77.1 °C. At submillimolar concentration, enantiopure 2 can be used as circular dichroism sensor to detect a wide range of chiral amines.     

Acanthifoliosides, minor steroidal saponins from the Caribbean sponge Pandaros acanthifolium

Seven novel steroid glycosides, acanthifoliosides A-F (1-6), and the methyl ester of 6 (7), were isolated from the marine sponge Pandaros acanthifolium as minor components. Acanthifoliosides are characterized by a rare C-15 and C-16 oxidized D ring, which was previously found in saponins produced by starfishes. Very uncommon is the presence of additional sugar residues at C-15 or C-16. Their structures were determined on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses, including two-dimensional NMR and HRESIMS data. The absolute configurations of the aglycones were assigned by comparison between experimental and TDDFT calculated CD spectra of 1, whereas the absolute configurations of the monosaccharide units were determined by chiral GC analyses of the acid methanolysates. Some of the acanthifoliosides exhibit moderate antiprotozoal activity but to a lesser extent than the most potent pandarosides.
