Ultrathin films of layered coordination polymers: charge transport and spin crossover at the nanoscale

2019

La present tesi doctoral ha estat realitzada com a compendi de publicacions i porta per títol "Pel·lícules ultrafines de polímers de coordinació en capes: transport de càrrega i transició d'espín en la nanoescala" (Ultrathin films of layered coordination polymers: charge transport and spin-crossover at the nanoscale). Aquesta es divideix en quatre capítols a més d'un capítol final de conclusions i resums en castellà i valencià. El primer capítol consisteix d'una introducció general enfocada cap a donar una visió general del transport de càrrega en xarxes metall-orgàniques (de l'anglès metal-organic frameworks, MOFs) i polímers de coordinació (de l'anglès coordination polymers, CPs), així co…

The New "Maximum Yield Grid" (MYG) Array in Full 3D Resistivity Tomography

2008

Over the past few years geoelectrical prospecting has experienced many innovations, ranging from instrumental refinements to improvement of data interpretation. The consequence of this has been a strong increase in the method s resolution power and, therefore, its field of application has broadened. Nevertheless, the diffusion of 3D surveys in electrical resistivity tomography has been very much limited by the long acquisition time required by this kind of investigation, as compared to 2D ERT or other geophysical exploration methods like GPR. However, 3D ERT has a great advantage in terms of resolution power, that is very important in many applications, such as archeological or cultural her…

Tunable Superstructures of Dendronized Graphene Nanoribbons in Liquid Phase

2019

In this Communication, we report the first synthesis of structurally well-defined graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) functionalized with dendritic polymers. The resultant GNRs possess grafting ratios of 0.59-0.68 for the dendrons of different generations. Remarkably, the precise 3D branched conformation of the grafted dendrons affords the GNRs unprecedented 1D supramolecular self-assembly behavior in tetrahydrofuran (THF), yielding nanowires, helices and nanofibers depending on the dimension of the dendrons. The GNR superstructures in THF exhibit near-infrared absorption with maxima between 650 and 700 nm, yielding an optical bandgap of 1.2-1.3 eV. Ultrafast photoconductivity analyses unveil that …

From Feynman–Kac formulae to numerical stochastic homogenization in electrical impedance tomography

2016

In this paper, we use the theory of symmetric Dirichlet forms to derive Feynman–Kac formulae for the forward problem of electrical impedance tomography with possibly anisotropic, merely measurable conductivities corresponding to different electrode models on bounded Lipschitz domains. Subsequently, we employ these Feynman–Kac formulae to rigorously justify stochastic homogenization in the case of a stochastic boundary value problem arising from an inverse anomaly detection problem. Motivated by this theoretical result, we prove an estimate for the speed of convergence of the projected mean-square displacement of the underlying process which may serve as the theoretical foundation for the de…

Strong enhancement of superconductivity at high pressures within the charge-density-wave states of 2H-TaS 2 and 2H-TaSe 2

2016

We present measurements of the superconducting and charge density wave critical temperatures (Tc and TCDW) as a function of pressure in the transition metal dichalchogenides 2H-TaSe2 and 2H-TaS2. Resistance and susceptibility measurements show that Tc increases from temperatures below 1 K up to 8.5 K at 9.5 GPa in 2H-TaS2 and 8.2 K at 23 GPa in 2H-TaSe2. We observe a kink in the pressure dependence of TCDW at about 4 GPa that we attribute to the lock-in transition from incommensurate CDW to commensurate CDW. Above this pressure, the commensurate TCDW slowly decreases coexisting with superconductivity within our full pressure range.

Room temperature ionic liquids based on cationic porphyrin derivatives and tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate anion

2011

A series of 11 low melting ionic liquids based on meso-substituted A3B -porphyrins and A2B2-porphyrins containing one or two pyridyl substituents have been synthesized in high yields. Three of them are liquids at room temperature. All these porphyrinic salts were characterized by1H NMR,19F NMR, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, elemental analysis and UV-visible spectroscopy. The thermal properties and conductivity values of these salt derivatives have been also measured. A specific conductivity value of up to 4 mS.cm-1could be obtained for a compound having the counter-anion B(C6F5)4-.

InBO3 and ScBO3 at high pressures: an ab initio study of elastic and thermodynamic properties

2016

We have theoretically investigated the elastic properties of calcite-type orthoborates ABO(3) (A= Sc and In) at high pressure by means of ab initio total-energy calculations. From the elastic stiffness coefficients, we have obtained the elastic moduli (B, G and E), Poisson's ratio (nu), B/G ratio, universal elastic anisotropy index (A(U)), Vickers hardness, and sound wave velocities for both orthoborates. Our simulations show that both borates are more resistive to volume compression than to shear deformation (B > G). Both compounds are ductile and become more ductile, with an increasing elastic anisotropy, as pressure increases. We have also calculated some thermodynamic properties, like D…

Residual water and electrical properties of polyaniline

1994

Summary form only given. The work aims to study the mechanism of interaction between water molecules and polyaniline (PANI) backbone as an important constituent of acid-base transformations ensuring good conductive properties of PANI. Experiments have been made using chemically synthesized emeraldine base subjected to different chemical treatments and aging procedures. Thermogravimetric measurement have shown that water content in polymeric matrices may amount up to 20-25 wt.% with two distinguished reversible absorbance states of water molecules. Weakly bond water (3-5 kcal/mol) is incorporated into PANI from ambient atmosphere and could be eliminated by drying at room temperature in vacuu…
