Conformation of N,N′-bis (2,6-dimethylmorpholino), N″-dichloroacetyl phosphoric triamide: CHCl2C(O)NHP(O)[2,6(CH3)2(NC4H6O)]2. NMR and ab initio studies

Using phosphorus pentachloride as a substrate, a new carbacyclamidophosphate, N,N″-bis (2,6-dimethylmorpholino), N″-dichloroacetyl phosphoric triamide (1) has been synthesized and characterized by ¹H, ³¹P and ¹³C NMR, IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Due to the presence of methyl disubstituted morpholine rings and the dichloroacetamide group, several conformers can be considered for this molecule. The ³¹P{¹H} NMR spectra for the isomeric mixture of synthesized compound showed four signals with the ratio 67.1; 19.0; 12.2; 1.7, which indicates four independent conformers. The ¹H NMR spectra confirmed these results. The conformational space and the molecular geometry of the molecule in the gaseous phase have been studied using the B3LYP method of approximation, with 6-31G and 6-311++G^** basis sets.     

Bound particle with magnetic moment in a space with topological defect

We consider a bounded quantum mechanical particle with spin ?1/2 and a gyromagnetic ratio g, which is placed in a uniform magnetic field, in a space with a linear topological defect. We obtain the exact expressions for eigenfunctions and eigenvalues, using the approach of the continuum theory of defects, and show the dependence on the topological parameters and potential harmonic. Besides, we study the limits case and obtained the results described in the literature. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2002     

Structures, magnetic, and thermal properties of Ln3MoO7 (Ln=La, Pr, Nd, Sm, and Eu)

Ternary lanthanide-molybdenum oxides Ln₃MoO₇ (Ln=La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu) have been prepared. Their structures were determined by X-ray diffraction measurements. They crystallize in a superstructure of cubic fluorite and the space group is P2₁2₁2₁. The Mo ion is octahedrally coordinated by six oxygens and the slightly distorted octahedra share corners forming a zig-zag chain parallel to the b-axis. These compounds have been characterized by magnetic susceptibility and specific heat measurements. The La₃MoO₇ shows complex magnetic behavior at 150 and 380 K. Below these temperatures, there is a large difference in the temperature-dependence of the magnetic susceptibility measured under zero-field-cooled condition and under field-cooled condition. The Nd₃MoO₇ show a clear antiferromagnetic transition at 2.5 K. From the susceptibility measurements, both Pr₃MoO₇ and Sm₃MoO₇ show the existence of magnetic anomaly at 8.0 and 2.5 K, respectively. The results of the specific heat measurements also show anomalies at the corresponding magnetic transition temperatures. The differential scanning calorimetry measurements indicate that two phase-transitions occur for any Ln₃MoO₇ compound in the temperature range between 370 and 710 K.     

Influence of Si doping on the optical and structural properties of InGaN films

Influence of Si doping on the optical and structural properties of InGaN epilayers with different Si concentrations was investigated in detail by means of high-resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), Cathodoluminescence (CL) and photoluminescence (PL). It was found that a small amount of Si doping in InGaN could enhance luminescence intensity, improve the crystal quality of InGaN and suppress the formation of V-defects in InGaN. Further investigation by CL showed that V-defects act as nonradiative center, which lower the luminescence efficiency of InGaN. Based on above-mentioned results, one possible mechanism of influence of Si doping on the formation of V-defects in InGaN was also proposed in this paper.     

Properties of as-cast and structurally relaxed Zr-based bulk metallic glasses

We have studied the influence of the arc melting procedure of Nb-containing Zr-based bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) on their thermal and mechanical properties. We found that the strength and plastic strain to failure, determined at room temperature, increases by the addition of a few percentage of Nb into the Zr-based BMGs. High-resolution transmission-electron microscopy results show that the addition of 2 at.% Nb introduces the formation of as-cast nanocrystals. At the same time, thermal analyses indicate an increase in glass forming ability with the small addition of Nb. Contrary to the reported results in other amorphous alloys, we found that the plastic strain increases further after heat-induced structural relaxation in the Zr-based BMGs.     

Synthesis and structure of 4,7,13,16-tetraoxa-1,10-diaza-5,6-benzocyclooctadeca-11,18-dione monohydrate

4,7,13,16-tetraoxa-1,10-diaza-5,6-benzocyclooctadeca-11,18-dione, C₁₆H₂₂N₂O₆·H₂O, (3) was synthesized under thermal conditions, starting from ,-diamine (1) and ,-diester (2). The hydrate of compound (3) was investigated in the solid state by X-ray structural analysis. Crystal data: monoclinic system, space group P2₁/c,a=12.342(4) Å,b=15.978(7) Å,c=8.960(3) Å, =96.72(3)°,Z=4. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to finalR=0.056,R _w=0.069 for 1962 observed reflections. The structure exhibits internal hydrogen bonds between the etheral O(16) atom and the neighboring amide group. The water molecule connects diamide molecules by one strong hydrogen bond with carbonyl oxygen, and four weak hydrogen bonds with the amide groups and etheral oxygen atoms.     

Nanostructure Analysis of Anodic Films Formed on Aluminum-Focusing on the Effects of Electric Field Strength and Electrolyte Anions

In this review, the research conducted by the authors on anodic oxide films on aluminum is described, paying particular attention to how the electric field strength, as a factor other than voltage, controls the nanostructures and properties of the films. It will also be indicated what factors contribute to the formation of defects, which, in contrast to the ideal or model film structure, contains a significant number of defects in the film. In addition to electrochemical measurements, the films were examined with a variety of advanced instruments, including electron microscopes, to confirm the “reality of film nanostructure” from a slightly different angle than the conventional view. The following topics on anodic films formed in four types of major anodizing electrolytes are discussed: pore initiation process, steady-state porous structure, sealing mechanism, the relationship between cell parameters and voltage/electric field strength, amount and depth of anion incorporation, electrolyte types, radial branching of pores, atypical pore structures, defect formation mechanism, self-ordering, Al coordination number, and the creation of α-alumina membranes.
