Temperature-dependent polymorphism of N-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,5-dimethyl-1H-imidazole-4-carboxamide 3-oxide: experimental and theoretical studies on int…
2014
X-ray analysis of N-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,5-dimethyl-1H-imidazole-4-carboxamide 3-oxide reveals the temperature-dependent polymorphism associated with the crystallographic symmetry conversion. The observed crystal structure transformation corresponds to a symmetry reduction from I41 /a (I) to P43 (II) space groups. The phase transition mainly concerns the subtle but clearly noticeable reorganization of molecules in the crystal space, with the structure of individual molecules left almost unchanged. The Hirshfeld surface analysis shows that various intermolecular contacts play an important role in the crystal packing, revealing graphically the differences in spatial arrangements of the molecule…
Symmetry and Stability of the Rutile-Based TiO2 Nanowires: Models and Comparative LCAO-Plane Wave DFT Calculations
2012
The rod symmetry groups for monoperiodic (1D) nanostructures have been applied for construction of models for bulk-like titania nanowires (NWs) cut from a rutile-based 3D crystal along the direction of a chosen crystallographic symmetry axis (in this study we consider only Ti atom-centered axes). The most stable [001]-oriented TiO2 NWs with rhombic cross sections are found to display the energetically preferable {110} facets only, while the nanowires with quasi-square sections across the [110] axis are formed by the alternating {110} and {001} facets. For simulations on rutile-based nanowires possessing four different diameters for each NW type, we have performed comparative large-scale ab …
Morphotropic ceramic solid solutions of the Pb(B3+½Nb½)O3- PbTiO3binary system
2000
Abstract The structure, dielectric, ferroelectric and electromechanical properties of lead lutecium niobate-titanate (PLuNT) and lead erbium niobate-titanate (PErNT) binary systems are reported. The data of phase diagram, crystallographic symmetry and morphotropic phase boundaries (MPB) are provided. High values of the electromechanical coupling coefficients kp = 0.66, kt = 0.48, k31 = 0.36 of (1−x)PLuN − xPT ceramics are attained in compositions near the MPB at x≈0.41.
Structure and Physical Properties of Na1/2Bi1/2TiO3-CdTiO3Solid Solutions
2011
Behaviour of ferroelectric properties in Na1/2Bi1/2TiO3-CdTiO3 solid solutions correlates with dependence of lattice symmetry versus concentration of constituents. However, some overlapping is observed in concentration range close to the morphotropic phase boundary. The properties of dielectric permittivity, characteristic for relaxor ferroelectrics, diminish, if concentration of CdTiO3 increases, but it is not influenced by the change of crystallographic symmetry. The electromechanical properties are mostly pronounced in the range of cubic-tetragonal morphotropic phase boundary.
Decacyclene as complexation manifold: synthesis, structure and properties of its Fe2 and Fe4 slipped triple-decker complexes.
2006
Reaction of [(eta(5)-Me4EtC5)Fe(II)Cl(tmeda)] (tmeda = N,N,N'N'-tetramethylethylenediamine) with a polyanion solution of decacyclene (1) results in the formation of the triple-deckers [{(eta(5)-Me4EtC5)Fe}2-mu2-(eta(6):eta(6)-decacyclene)] (3) and [{(eta(5)-Me4EtC5)Fe}4-mu4-(eta(6):eta(6):eta(6):eta(6)-decacyclene)] (4). Metal complexation in 3 and 4 occurs on opposite faces of the pi perimeter in an alternating mode. The decacyclene ring adopts a gently twisted molecular propeller geometry with twofold crystallographic symmetry (C2). Complex 4 crystallizes in the chiral space group C222(1); the investigated crystal only contains decacyclene rings with M chirality. The handedness can be ass…
