Solvothermale Synthese und Bestimmung der Kristallstrukturen von AgBiI4 und Ag3BiI6

Solvothermal Synthesis and Crystal Structure Determination of AgBiI₄ and Ag₃BiI₆ AgBiI₄ and Ag₃BiI₆ were synthesized by solvothermal reaction from AgI and BiI₃ in diluted HI‐solution (20 %) at a temperature of 160 °C. The greyish‐black crystals grow as octahedra (AgBiI₄) or hexagonal/trigonal platelets (Ag₃BiI₆). AgBiI₄ crystallizes in space group Fd3¯m with a = 1222.3(1) pm (300 K) and Z = 8 whereas Ag₃BiI₆ shows the space group R3¯m with a = 435.37(6) pm, c = 2081.0(4) pm (300 K) and Z = 1. Both crystal structures show stacking sequence abcabc… of hexagonal layers containing Iodine. Bismuth and silver are sharing octahedral sites with different mass ratio in both structures. The part of silver which could be localized varies with temperature. This behaviour indicates mobility of silver within the crystal structure. The ionic conductivity of AgBiI₄ is explored. AgBiI₄ and Ag₃BiI₆ show close structural relationship, with AgBiI₄ as a variant with a higher degree of order.     

(CuBr)3P4Se4: A Low Symmetric Variant of the (CuI)3P4Se4 Structure Type

Bright orange (CuBr)₃P₄Se₄ is obtained from the reaction of CuBr, P, and Se in stoichiometric amounts (CuBr : P : Se = 3 : 4 : 4). The composition and the crystal structure of the compound were determined from single crystal X‐ray diffraction data. Lattice constants are a = 33.627(2) Å, b = 6.402(1) Å, c = 19.059(1) Å, β = 90.19(3) °, V = 4103.2(3) ų, and Z = 12. The compound crystallizes in a structure that is related to (CuI)₃P₄Se₄. Cages of β‐P₄Se₄ are stacked along the b‐axis and are separated by columns of copper(I) bromide. However, the coordination of the β‐P₄Se₄ cage molecules to the copper atoms in the CuBr columns in (CuBr)₃P₄Se₄ is quite different from (CuI)₃P₄Se₄. The monoclinic compound (space group: P2₁, no. 4) has an almost orthorhombic metric in combination with a threefold superstructure in [100]. Structural aspects of (CuBr)₃P₄Se₄ are discussed with respect to the heavier homologue (CuI)₃P₄Se₄.     

Self-consistent truncation of the BBGKY hierarchy on the two-body level

We present a coupled set of equations for the one-body density matrix and the two-body correlation function consistent with trace relations and conservation laws which provide an extension of correlation dynamics on the two-body level. The additional interaction terms are discussed in the context of time-dependent G-matrix theory and NQCD and studied numerically by one-dimensional calculations for colliding finite fermion systems.Supported by BMFT and GSI Darmstadt     

Darstellung und schwingungsspektroskopische Untersuchung von [H3B?Se?Se?BH3]2− und [H3B-μ2-Se(B2H5)]− Kristallstruktur und theoretische Untersuchung der Molekülstruktur von [H3B-μ2-Se(B2H5)]−

Synthesis and Vibrational Spectroscopic Investigation of [H₃B? Se? Se? BH₃]^2? and [H₃B-μ₂-Se(B₂H₅)]^? Crystal Structure and Theoretical Investigation of the Molecular Structure of [H₃B-μ₂-Se(B₂H₅)]^? M₂[H₃B? Se? Se? BH₃] 1 is produced by the reaction between elemental selenium and MBH₄ (1 : 1) in triglyme (diglyme), under dehydrogenation. 1 reacts with an excess of B₂H₆ to give M[H₃B-μ₂-Se(B₂H₅)] 2 which is also formed in the reaction of THF · BH₃ with 1 . These reactions proceed under cleavage of the Se? Se bond and hydrogen evolution. [(C₆H₅)₄]Br reacts with Na · 2 to form [(C₆H₅)₄P] · 2 which crystallizes in the tetragonal space group I4 (Nr. 82). An X-ray structure determination failed because of disordering of the cation and anion. ¹¹B, ⁷⁷Se NMR shifts and ¹J(¹¹B¹H) coupling constants as well as IR- and Raman spectroscopic investigations convey further structural information. Structural data of 2 have been calculated by SCF methods. The anion of 2 may be viewed either as an adduct of Se with B₃H₈^?, or as a bridge substituted selena derivative of B₂H₆.     

LES of oxy-fuel jet flames using the Eulerian Stochastic Fields method with differential diffusion

The Eulerian Stochastic Fields (ESF) Monte Carlo method to solve the transported PDF (TPDF) equation is extended to account for differential diffusion effects by incorporating species individual molecular diffusivities. The method has been applied in Large Eddy simulation (LES) to non-piloted oxy-fuel jet flames at different Reynolds numbers experimentally investigated by Sevault et al. [1]. Due to the high H₂ content in the fuel stream and CO₂ in the oxidizer these flames pose new challenges to combustion modeling as the flame structures are different compared to CH₄/air flames. The simulations show very good agreement with the experiments in terms of mixture fraction conditional mean values for temperature and mayor species on the fuel lean side and the reaction zone, deviations on the fuel rich side are discussed. The trend and location of localized extinction is reproduced well in the simulations, as well as differential diffusion effects in the near field. Additionally, it is shown that a neglect of differential diffusion in the combustion model leads to a lifted flame.
