Iridium and Rhodium as Permanent Chemical Modifiers for the Determination of Ag, As, Bi, Cd, and Sb by Electrothermal Atomic Absorption Spectrometry

Performance of graphite platforms coated with Ir, Rh, and a mixture of both, as permanent modifiers for Ag, As, Bi, Cd, and Sb, was evaluated. The coating process is very simple: a solution containing Ir, Rh, or a mixture of both is pipetted on the platform inserted in a graphite tube, and this is submitted to a temperature program. High pyrolysis temperatures are allowed, especially for As and Bi, 1400°C, in the Ir + Rh-coated platform. The sensitivity remains about the same for all analytes with different coatings, except for As in the Ir-coated platform, for which a remarkable gain was obtained in comparison to the other coatings. The lifetimes of the treated tubes were in the range 50 to more than 1000 cycles, being especially long for Sb and Ag in the Rh-coated platform, more than 600 and 1000 cycles, respectively. The Rh coating could not be used for Bi and Cd. Analysis of a certified reference water and of acid oyster tissue digests showed the absence of interference and good precision. Advantages of the permanent coatings are the possibility of low blanks byin situcleaning of the modifier and shorter analysis time.     

纳米复合永磁Pr9Fe74Co12B5Snx(x=0, 0.5)的磁化行为与磁黏滞性

用熔体快淬法制备了纳米复合永磁样品Pr₉Fe₇₄Co₁₂B₅ 与Pr₉Fe₇₄Co₁₂B₅Sn_0.5，分析了样品的起始磁化、反磁化过程，测得样品的总磁化率、可逆磁化率以及样品的磁黏滞性.结果表明，两样品在室温下均表现为单一硬磁相磁化行为，在低温下表现为双相行为，且由于添加Sn后使晶粒均匀化从而导致样品低温下的双相行为更加明显.添加Sn后引起样品中软磁相含量和软磁相晶粒尺寸的增加，使磁化反转中可逆磁化部分增多，且使反磁化形核场降低.磁黏滞性研究表明，热激活体积与软磁相晶粒的大小有关. 关键词： 纳米复合永磁 磁化反转 磁粘滞     

A new comprehensive study of the 3D random-field Ising model via sampling the density of states in dominant energy subspaces

The three-dimensional bimodal random-field Ising model is studied via a new finite temperature numerical approach. The methods of Wang-Landau sampling and broad histogram are implemented in a unified algorithm by using the N-fold version of the Wang-Landau algorithm. The simulations are performed in dominant energy subspaces, determined by the recently developed critical minimum energy subspace technique. The random-fields are obtained from a bimodal distribution, that is we consider the discrete (±Δ) case and the model is studied on cubic lattices with sizes 4≤L ≤20. In order to extract information for the relevant probability distributions of the specific heat and susceptibility peaks, large samples of random-field realizations are generated. The general aspects of the model's scaling behavior are discussed and the process of averaging finite-size anomalies in random systems is re-examined under the prism of the lack of self-averaging of the specific heat and susceptibility of the model.

Self‐Assembly of a Giant Tetrahedral 3 d–4 f Single‐Molecule Magnet within a Polyoxometalate System

A giant tetrahedral heterometallic polyoxometalate (POM) [Dy₃₀Co₈Ge₁₂W₁₀₈O₄₀₈(OH)₄₂(OH₂)₃₀]^56?, which shows single‐molecule magnet (SMM) behavior, is described. This hybrid contains the largest number of 4f ions of any polyoxometalate (POM) reported to date and is the first to incorporate two different 3d–4f and 4f coordination cluster assemblies within same POM framework.     

Methane as a Selectivity Booster in the Arc‐Discharge Synthesis of Endohedral Fullerenes: Selective Synthesis of the Single‐Molecule Magnet Dy2TiC@C80 and Its Congener Dy2TiC2@C80

The use of methane as a reactive gas dramatically increases the selectivity of the arc‐discharge synthesis of M‐Ti‐carbide clusterfullerenes (M=Y, Nd, Gd, Dy, Er, Lu). Optimization of the process parameters allows the synthesis of Dy₂TiC@C₈₀‐I and its facile isolation in a single chromatographic step. A new type of cluster with an endohedral acetylide unit, M₂TiC₂@C₈₀, is discovered along with the second isomer of M₂TiC@C₈₀. Dy₂TiC@C₈₀‐(I,II) and Dy₂TiC₂@C₈₀‐I are shown to be single‐molecule magnets (SMM), but the presence of the second carbon atom in the cluster Dy₂TiC₂@C₈₀ leads to substantially poorer SMM properties.     

Construction of Nitronyl Nitroxide‐Based 3d–4f Clusters: Structure and Magnetism

Three unprecedented nitronyl nitroxide radical‐bridged 3d–4f clusters, [Ln₂Cu₂(hfac)₁₀(NIT‐3py)₂(H₂O)₂](Ln^III=Y, Gd, Dy), have been obtained from the self‐assembly of Ln(hfac)₃, Cu(hfac)₂, and the radical ligand. The Dy complex shows a slow relaxation of magnetization, representing the first nitronyl nitroxide radical‐based 3d–4f cluster with single‐molecule magnet behavior.     

Can CH⋅⋅⋅π Interactions Be Used To Design Single‐Chain Magnets?

This theoretical study suggests that CH???π stacking interactions between monomeric units can be used to design novel single‐chain magnets (SCMs), as the sign of coupling is predictable and such chains inherently yield negative axial anisotropy, a condition often difficult to achieve in conventional SCMs.
