Vibrational spectroscopy of a tetraureidocalix[4]arene based molecular capsuleElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available: three tables cont…
2001
Structural models for self-assembled dimers composed of two urea calix[4]arenes which entrap benzene or cyclohexane are developed using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Based on the host–guest ratio determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy in solution, and confirmed for the solid state by a thermogravimetric analysis, it is possible to prove by a comparison of the FTIR data of host, guest, complex and model compounds, that the capsule is held together by a cyclic array of weak and strong hydrogen bonds between the urea units attached at the wide rim of the calixarenes. The dimerization of the two urea units leads to a loss of symmetry, and an averaged C4 symmetrical arrangement is p…
<title>Primary radiation defect formation in silver halides</title>
1998
Under irradiation the formation of primary intrinsic defects in silver halide solid solutions AgBr1-xClx take place via strong exciton-phonon interaction. Efficiency of these defects formation depend on solid solution composition and within 0 <EQ x <EQ 0.15 dependence on temperature was observed too. Estimation shows efficiency of defects creation is approximately 0.01 for AgCl and noticeably higher for AgBr.© (1998) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.

Synchrotron Radiation-Based Micro-XANES and Micro-XRF Study of Unsuccessfully Produced Egyptian Blue from the Late Hellenistic Production Site of Kos…
2021
International audience; This paper examines the production technology of Egyptian blue, an ancient artificial pigment, through the investigation of an unsuccessfully produced pellet derived from the Hellenistic production site of Kos (Dodecanese, Greece). This heterogeneous material was investigated by a combination of laboratory and synchrotron radiation-based (SR) techniques: scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive Xray spectrometry, micro-Raman spectroscopy, high-resolution SR micro-X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, and SR micro-X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectroscopy (XANES), at the ID21 beamline of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility. Principal comp…
Geometric, electronic, and magnetic structure ofCo2FeSi: Curie temperature and magnetic moment measurements and calculations
2005
In this work a simple concept was used for a systematic search for materials with high spin polarization. It is based on two semiempirical models. First, the Slater-Pauling rule was used for estimation of the magnetic moment. This model is well supported by electronic structure calculations. The second model was found particularly for ${\mathrm{Co}}_{2}$ based Heusler compounds when comparing their magnetic properties. It turned out that these compounds exhibit seemingly a linear dependence of the Curie temperature as function of the magnetic moment. Stimulated by these models, ${\mathrm{Co}}_{2}\mathrm{FeSi}$ was revisited. The compound was investigated in detail concerning its geometrical…
Spin-Crossover and Liquid Crystal Properties in 2D Cyanide-Bridged FeII−MI/II Metalorganic Frameworks
2010
Novel two-dimensional heterometallic Fe(II)-M(Ni(II), Pd(II), Pt(II), Ag(I), and Au(I)) cyanide-bridged metalorganic frameworks exhibiting spin-crossover and liquid crystal properties, formulated as {FeL(2)[M(I/II)(CN)(x)](y)}·sH(2)O, where L are the ligands 4-(4-alkoxyphenyl)pyridine, 4-(3,4-dialkoxyphenyl)pyridine, and 4-(3,4,5-trisalkoxyphenyl)pyridine, have been synthesized and characterized. The physical characterization has been carried out by means of EXAFS, X-ray powder diffraction, magnetic susceptibility, differential scanning measurements, and Mössbauer spectroscopy. The 2D Fe(II) metallomesogens undergo incomplete and continuous thermally induced spin transition at T(1/2) ≈ 170 …
Polarity profiles in reverse micelles of Triton X-100, as studied by spin probe and absorption probe techniques
1997
The microenvironment characteristics — polarity, viscosity and order degree - in Triton X-100 reverse micelles (RM) in cyclohexane and benzene — n-hexane 30 : 70 (v/v), were investigated with the aid of a homologous series of cationic spin probes, CAT n, of 5- and 16-doxyl stearic acids and of a new absorption probe, 4-nitropyridine-N-oxide (NP). The spectral parameters were related to local hydration values by means of a series of poly(oxyethylene) (PEO)/water calibration mixtures. All results regarding the polarities in RM and calibration mixtures have been expressed in terms of Kosower's Z values, by determining the linear dependence of the transition energies of NP, ENP, on Z, for a ser…
The Influence of the Fir Absorption on the Dielectric Behaviour of Rigid Polar Molecules in Very Dilute Solutions
1974
In view of the FIR absorption the dielectric loss of ten polar molecules — with different volume between furan and 4-bromobiphenyl — has been measured in very dilute solutions at 11 fixed frequencies over an extended range from 0.3 to 300 GHz. Solvents are heptane, cyclohexane, mesitylene, and decalin. For these rigid polar molecules a second high frequency absorption region with time constants of 1–3 ps can be separated from the predominant Debye absorption. This additional absorption decreases with increasing Debye relaxation time. Various molecular motions contributing to this absorption are discussed.
Photometric and Spectroscopic Properties of Type Ia Supernova 2018oh with Early Excess Emission from the $Kepler$ 2 Observations
2019
Supernova (SN) 2018oh (ASASSN-18bt) is the first spectroscopically-confirmed type Ia supernova (SN Ia) observed in the $Kepler$ field. The $Kepler$ data revealed an excess emission in its early light curve, allowing to place interesting constraints on its progenitor system (Dimitriadis et al. 2018, Shappee et al. 2018b). Here, we present extensive optical, ultraviolet, and near-infrared photometry, as well as dense sampling of optical spectra, for this object. SN 2018oh is relatively normal in its photometric evolution, with a rise time of 18.3$\pm$0.3 days and $\Delta$m$_{15}(B)=0.96\pm$0.03 mag, but it seems to have bluer $B - V$ colors. We construct the "uvoir" bolometric light curve hav…
Orthogonality Catastrophe and Decoherence in a Trapped-Fermion Environment
2012
The Fermi edge singularity and the Anderson orthogonality catastrophe describe the universal physics which occurs when a Fermi sea is locally quenched by the sudden switching of a scattering potential, leading to a brutal disturbance of its ground state. We demonstrate that the effect can be seen in the controllable domain of ultracold trapped gases by providing an analytic description of the out-of-equilibrium response to an atomic impurity, both at zero and at finite temperature. Furthermore, we link the transient behavior of the gas to the decoherence of the impurity, and, in particular to the amount of non-markovianity of its dynamics.
Long-Range and Short-Range Structure of Proton-Conducting Y:BaZrO3
2011
Yttrium-doped barium zirconate (BZY) is the most promising candidate for proton-conducting ceramics and has been extensively studied in recent years. The detailed features of the crystal structure, both short-range and long-range, as well as the crystal chemistry driving the doping process, are largely unknown. We use very high resolution X-ray diffraction (HR-XRD) to resolve the crystal structure, which is very slightly tetragonally distorted in BZY, while the local environment around Zr4+ and Y3+ is probed with extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS), and the symmetry and vibrations are investigated by using Raman spectroscopy. It is found that barium zirconate shows some degree …
