Radiative and electrical properties of granular materials: application to mixtures of insulating and conducting polymers

The study of the radiative and electrical properties of granular materials coated with polypyrrole (PPy) a conducting polymer, shows the influence of the processing conditions concerning the nature of the substrate and the deposition parameters. Binary mixtures with varying compositions of mono and bidisperse particles, coated with or without PPy (which are conductive and insulating, respectively) present electrical percolation thresholds which can also be found when the radiative aspect is considered. The principal component analysis carried out on the spectral values allows us to corroborate the experimental factors and to distinguish the mixtures according to their compositions.     

Rotational and vibrational temperatures measured in a chemiluminescent flame from FTIR Bi2 emission spectra

Rotational and vibrational temperatures of the Bi₂ dimer have been measured in a chemiluminescent flame. Emission spectra of the Bi₂ a³Σ_u⁺(a₁1_u)→X¹Σ_g⁺(X0_g⁺) transition in the near-infrared region were recorded with a FTIR spectrometer. High-resolution spectra of the 0-3, 0-8, 0-9, 2-3, 4-1, 6-0, 6-1, and 7-1 bands served for the determination of the rotational temperature. It was observed that both rotational and vibrational levels are described well by Boltzmann distributions. The average rotational temperature was found to be consistent with the vibrational temperature . The study has shown that such a very heavy molecule as Bi₂ can serve for temperature measurements by optical emission as reported so far only for light molecules.     

Ab initio study of S dynamics on iron surfaces

Density functional theory was employed to examine the interactions of atomic sulfur with the Fe(1 0 0) and Fe(1 1 0) surfaces. Vibrational frequency calculations were performed to determine the nature of stationary points at the high symmetry atop, bridge and hollow adsorption sites and to indicate the direction the adsorbate would move across the surface. The values were also used in the determination of the rate constant for hopping of S from one energy minimum site to another. Ab initio molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were then performed to monitor the mobility of the S atom on the (1 0 0) surface at different temperatures up to the melting point of Fe (1808 K) and were compared to our previously obtained ab initio MD results for S/Fe(1 1 0) [N. Todorova, M.J.S. Spencer, I. Yarovsky, Australian Institute of Physics 16th Biennial Congress, 2005, Canberra, Australia, ISBN 0-9598064-8-2].     

Factors influencing the electronic properties of arrays of ligand-stabilized gold nanocrystals

We review our recent progress on probing the electronic properties of self-assembled arrays of ligand-stabilized gold nanocrystals via charge transport measurements on both laterally- and vertically-contacted arrays. We show that the electronic properties of these assemblies can be manipulated through experimental control of the nanocrystal diameter, the array formation conditions and the nature of the protecting ligand.     

Cobalt growth on two related close-packed noble metal surfaces

We report on scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) studies of submonolayer growth of cobalt on the close-packed (1 1 1) surfaces of Au and Ag. Both substrates belong to the category of noble metals, and they both exhibit a lattice misfit of ∼13% with respect to the (0 0 0 1) plane of Co. However, whereas the Au(1 1 1) surface reconstructs into the rather complex herringbone structure that disperses the cobalt into nanoclusters, the Ag(1 1 1) surface does not reconstruct in its clean state, and the surface dispersion of Co on this surface is therefore different. For Ag(1 1 1) at temperatures ranging from 160 to 200 K and for Au(1 1 1) at room temperature, the Co growth is three-dimensional starting with double layer islands followed by additional single layers. For both the Co/Au(1 1 1) and the Co/Ag(1 1 1) system, a Moiré pattern develops in the first bilayer of the Co islands, indicating an epitaxial but not commensurate growth. For Co islands with more than two layers, the subsequent layers are commensurate with the lower Co layers in the islands, but exhibit a decreasing corrugation of the Moiré pattern as observed in STM images. Despite a difference in the Moiré lattice constant and rotational angle, we show that the cobalt lattice constant is the same on both surfaces. We furthermore relate defect nucleation on the herringbone reconstruction on Au(1 1 1) to defect nucleation on steps on Ag(1 1 1).

Vibrational and rotational analyses of bands between 636 and 660 nm in the red system of CuCl2

The long wavelength end of the electronic spectrum of CuCl₂, between 636 and 660 nm, has been recorded in the gas phase by laser-excitation spectroscopy using a sample prepared at low temperatures (ca. 10 K) in a free-jet expansion. Under these conditions, it is possible to resolve vibrational, rotational, and even Cu hyperfine structure. The (0, 0) band of the E²Π_u-X²Π_g transition has been identified with an origin at 15546.286(3) cm⁻¹ for ⁶³Cu³⁵Cl₂. The observation and analysis of bands involving vibrationally excited levels has allowed the determination of all three vibrational intervals for the E²Π_u state (ν₁ = 335.88 cm⁻¹, ν₂ = 112.42 cm⁻¹, and ν₃ = 482.17 cm⁻¹, ⁶³Cu³⁵Cl₂). In addition, two other, unrelated transitions have been identified in the same narrow wavelength region. This, combined with the observation of local perturbations of the rotational structure in various bands, reveals the presence of other closely lying electronic states in the same energy region.     

External cavity tunable diode laser spectra of the ν1 + 2ν4 stretch-bend combination bands of NH3 and NH3

The ammonia ν₁ + 2ν₄ perpendicular stretch-bend combination band has been investigated in spectra of ¹⁴NH₃ and ¹⁵NH₃ recorded in the 6400-6800 cm⁻¹ region with an external cavity tunable diode laser (ECTDL) spectrometer. For ¹⁴NH₃, new assignments were determined initially by extrapolating from published low-J jet-cooled beam results up to transitions of higher J and K. Corresponding ν₁ + 2ν₄ transitions for the ¹⁵NH₃ species were then found by identifying similar patterns of lines with a characteristic downshift of approximately 9.7 cm⁻¹. Assignments were confirmed employing ground-state combination differences. Term values, a-s inversion splittings, l-doubling energies and parameter estimates from simple single-state fits are reported for the two ammonia species.     

Electron dynamics in Na and Pt clusters from time-dependent Hartree-Fock theory

We present a method for the numerical investigation of the electron dynamics in small metallic clusters in intense laser fields. We obtain information about collective excitations and relaxation processes in the Na ₉ ⁺ and Pt₃ clusters analyzing the power spectrum of the dipole moment within a mean-field approach. The power spectrum is computed for various laser pulse parameters as well as for the limit of an infinitely short laser pulse. Due to the basis set expansion of the wave function our method is capable to follow the dynamics not only of the whole electron cloud, but of any particular molecular orbital.
