Modulation of rectification and negative differential resistance in graphene nanoribbon by nitrogen doping

By applying the nonequilibrium Green?s function formalism combined with density functional theory, we have investigated the electronic transport properties of two nitrogen-doped armchair graphene nanoribbon-based junctions M1 and M2. In the left part of M1 and M2, nitrogen atoms are doped at two edges of the nanoribbon. In the right part, nitrogen atoms are doped at one edge and at the center for M1 and M2, respectively. Obvious rectifying and negative differential resistance behaviors are found, which are strongly dependent on the doping position. The maximum rectification and peak-to-valley ratios are up to the order of 10⁴ in M2.     

Polymeric Coordination Compounds Derived from Transition Metal(II) with Tetradentate Schiff‐base: Synthetic,Spectroscopic, Magnetic and Thermal Approach

The polymeric coordination compounds have been synthesized using the dipotassium salt of N,N′‐di(carboxymethylene)terephthalaldehydediimine (K₂SB¹) or N,N′‐di(carboxyethylene)terephthalaldehydediimine (K₂SB²) with manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II), and cadmium(II). The ligands have been characterized by ¹H‐NMR, and ¹³C‐NMR spectra. The polychelates have been characterized by elemental analyses, magnetic measurements, thermogravimetric analyses, electronic spectra and infrared spectra. The coordination compounds are colored, and the central metal ions are octahedrally coordinated with two water molecules and the Schiff bases. The Schiff bases act as di‐negative tetradentate ligands, in which bonding occurs through two oxygen and two nitrogen atoms. The polymers are insoluble in all common organic solvents such as acetone, methanol, ethanol, N,N‐dimethylformamide and dimethylsulfoxide.     

Magnetic properties of 1d systems with a subtle stacking of copper(II) ions

In the last two decades, many studies have been reported on infinite Id networks of magnetically interacting metal ions. Until now, closed-form expressions for the partition function and related properties were mainly derived for the S = f Ising chain model (Ising, 1925), the XY model (Kastura, 1962) or for the classical limit S –t co with arbitrary spin dimensionality (Fischer, 1964). Recently, experimental and theoretical studies have focused on new Id systems made of alternating spin and/or Lande factors (Georges, Curely and Drillon, 1985; Drillon et al., 1983). This has motivated our interest in the behavior of new systems of copper(II) ions in which the magnetic sites form an exotic stacking in one direction of the crystal. Then, the specific behavior is related to the competition between different interactions, as occurs in the systems reported here, namely A₃Cu₃(PO₄)₄, with A = Ca, Sr, Cu₃(PO₄)₂ and Cu₂O(SO₄).     

Equilibria effects in the dynamic ion-exchange separation of metal ions

Summary Equilibria occurring during the dynamic ion exchange separation of metal ions were examined, and their effect on the chromatography of the metal ions was evaluated. Bonded reversed-phase silica, pure organic reversed phase, and silica columns were used to differentiate between the role of silica and the reverse phase. The results show that system peaks had the most important influence on the applicability of dynamic exchangers to quantitative metal ion determinations. The response of system peaks to sample composition (pH, ionic strength, matrix effects) was complicated and could not be predicted easily. Equilibria effects that can cause analytical errors were identified and recommendations for elimination of such errors are given.Dedicated to Professor S. R. Lipsky on the occasion of his 60th birthday.

锂离子对稀土掺杂氧化物的红外激光诱导热辐射的影响

由于具有较高的可见波段荧光效率,基于稀土掺杂氧化物的红外激光诱导热辐射具有重大的应用潜力。进一步提高红外诱导热辐射效率具有重大的实用价值。设计了一种改善稀土掺杂氧化物材料中红外诱导热辐射效率的方案,即通过掺杂改性杂质,既可以改变稀土离子周围局域晶场的对称性;同时又引入了晶格缺陷。对应的效果包括：一方面,可以通过增强稀土离子周围的晶场强度来提高稀土元素对于入射光子的吸收能力;另一方面,可以利用晶格缺陷作为猝灭中心来增加材料的热转化能力,最终将显著提高杂质改性材料的光热转化效率,即获得更加高效的红外诱导热辐射材料。为了验证设计方案的可行性,利用溶胶-凝胶方法合成了不同浓度的镱离子和锂离子的共掺杂样品,通过XRD及TEM测试分析了杂质对样品结构的影响,并且基于荧光发射光谱具体研究了杂质掺杂浓度对热辐射效率的影响。该工作为高效稀土掺杂热辐射材料的制备提供一定的参考。

Materials parameters and ion-induced track formation

ABSTRACT

The role of various materials parameters in track formation is discussed. Experimental information is utilized showing a direct quantitative relationship in different solids between the melting points T_m and the ion-induced track radii R_e without involving other materials parameters. It is shown for Θ?=?T_m???T_ir (T_ir – irradiation temperature) that Θ～exp{?R_e²/w²} for S_e/N?=?constant, where S_e and N are the electronic stopping power and the number density of atoms and w?=?4.5?nm. The validity of this universal-type relation is demonstrated for 14 different insulators including LiNbO₃ and BaFe₁₂O₁₉. It is shown that the thermal diffusivity D, the heat of fusion L the band gap energy E_g and the absorption radius α_e of the electron distribution must not affect the track sizes as this would not be coherent with this identical behavior. Original reports on LiNbO₃ and BaFe₁₂O₁₉ with opposite conclusions are critically analyzed. It is shown that an arbitrary value of the ion energy was used in the analysis that modified substantially the results leading to an undue justification of the contribution of L and E_g in apparent agreement with the experimental data.
