Biradicaloid Character of Thiophene‐Based Heterophenoquinones: The Role of Electron–Phonon Coupling

The quinoidal versus biradicaloid character of the ground state of a series of thiophene‐based heterophenoquinones is investigated with quantum‐chemical calculations. The role of the ground‐state electronic character on molecular structure and vibrational properties is emphasized. The vibrational activities are experimentally determined and their analysis is performed by taking advantage of the definition of a collective vibrational coordinate (the

     

Polar optical phonon states and dispersive spectra of wurtzite ZnO nanocrystals embedded in zinc-blende MgO matrix

Based on the macroscopic dielectric continuum model and Loudon’s uniaxial crystal model, the polar optical phonon modes of a quasi-0-dimensional (Q0D) wurtzite spherical nanocrystal embedded in zinc-blende dielectric matrix are derived and studied. It is found that there are two types of polar phonon modes, i.e. interface optical (IO) phonon modes and the quasi-confined (QC) phonon modes coexisting in Q0D wurtzite ZnO nanocrystal embedded in zinc-blende MgO matrix. Via solving Laplace equations under spheroidal and spherical coordinates, the unified and analytical phonon states and dispersive equations of IO and QC modes are derived. Numerical calculations on a wurtzite/zinc-blende ZnO/MgO nanocrystal are performed. The frequency ranges of the IO and QC phonon modes of the ZnO/MgO nanocrystals are analyzed and discussed. It is found that the IO modes only exist in one frequency range, while QC modes may appear in three frequency ranges. The dispersive frequencies of IO and QC modes are the discrete functions of orbital quantum numbers l and azimuthal quantum numbers m. Moreover, a pair of given l and m corresponds to one IO mode, but to more than one branches of QC. The analytical phonon states and dispersive equations obtained here are quite useful for further investigating Raman spectra of phonons and other relative properties of wurtzite/zinc-blende Q0D nanocrystal structures.

一维介观环中持续电流的电子-声子相互作用非经典效应

基于声子相干态功效和计及声子压缩态非经典效应,研究了电子-磁振子和电子-声子相互作用对一维介观环持续电流的影响. 与自由环比较,由于电子-磁振子相互作用,持续电流的振幅呈现指数减小. 对于正常态电子,电子-声子相互作用导致持续电流以Debye-Waller(D-W)因子衰减.但是计入跳步电子-单声子相干态关联效应导致系统本征态能量大幅度下降,从而持续电流I_n有大幅度增加.另一方面计入双声子相干态行为,由于声子压缩态效应压缩电子-相干(态)声子弹性散射行为,导致电子绕环运 关键词： 持续电流 电子-声子相互作用 声子相干态 声子压缩态效应

Lattice dynamics of some binary alloys

Summary The phonon dispersion frequencies for Cu₃Au, Cu₃Zn and Ni₃Fe alloys have been calculated using the model potential approach. The contribution of a short-range three-body interaction to the dynamical matrix has also been included in the present study. The theoretically computed phonon dispersion curves of these alloys are found to be in good agreement with the experimental data.
