Photochemical formation of [4.4.4](1,3,5)cyclophanes from 1,3,5-tris(3-phenylpropenoyl)benzenes

2004

Abstract Irradiation of 1,3,5-tris(3-phenylpropenoyl)benzene ( 1a ) yields in solution a dimer 2a by a threefold head-to-head/anti [2π+2π]cycloaddition. The stereochemistry of this [4.4.4](1,3,5)cyclophane was determined by 1H and 13C NMR studies including NOE measurements and a calculation of the AA′MM′ spin pattern of the methine protons. In contrast to the solution photochemistry, which is presumably controlled by the arrangement of an excimer, the irradiation in the crystalline state leads by a topochemical control to a dimer 3a , which contains a single four-membered ring.

Interference effect in the Landau-Zener tunneling of the antiferromagnetically coupled dimer of single-molecule magnets

2004

Two antiferromagnetically coupled tunneling systems is a minimal model exhibiting the effect of quantum-mechanical phase in the Landau-Zener effect. It is shown that the averaged staying probability oscillates vs resonance shift between the two particles, as well as vs sweeping rate. Such a resonance shift can be produced in Mn-4 dimers by the gradient of the magnetic field.

Antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains with bond alternation and quenched disorder

2004

We consider S=1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains with alternating bonds and quenched disorder, which represents a theoretical model of the compound CuCl_{2x}Br_{2(1-x)}(\gamma-{pic})_2. Using a numerical implementation of the strong disorder renormalization group method we study the low-energy properties of the system as a function of the concentration, x, and the type of correlations in the disorder. For perfect correlation of disorder the system is in the random dimer (Griffiths) phase having a concentration dependent dynamical exponent. For weak or vanishing disorder correlations the system is in the random singlet phase, in which the dynamical exponent is formally infinity. We disc…

Coherent Spin Dependent Landau-Zener Tunneling in Mixed Valence Dimers

2011

In this contribution we introduce the concept of single molecule ferroelectric based on the vibronic pseudo Jahn-Teller model of mixed valence dimeric clusters belonging to the Robin and Day class II compounds. We elucidate the main factors controlling the nonadiabatic Landau-Zener tunneling between the low lying vibronic levels induced by a pulse of the electric field. The transition probabilities are shown to be dependent on the both time of the pulse and the total spin of the cluster. A possibility to control the spin-dependent Landau-Zener tunneling by applying a static magnetic field is discussed.

Dimer dissociation energies of small odd-size clusters

2002

The dimer dissociation energies of gold cluster ions Au + n , n = 9, 11, 13, 15 have been determined with an extension of a recently developed model-independent method. Monomer-dimer decay pathway branching ratios provide the energy dependent process which is needed in this method. The measured values are D 2 ( Au + 9 ) = 3.66(8)(9) eV, D 2 ( Au + 11 ) = 4.27(11)(8) eV, D 2 ( Au + 13 ) = 4.50(9)(7) eV and D 2 ( Au + 15 ) = 4.29(10)(6) eV.

AN OPTICAL PLAQUETTE: MINIMUM EXPRESSIONS OF TOPOLOGICAL MATTER

2009

Topological matter is an unconventional form of matter: it exhibits a global hidden order which is not associated with the spontaneous breaking of any symmetry. The defects of this exotic type of order are anyons, quasiparticles with fractional statistics. Moreover, when living on a surface with non-trivial topology, like a plane with a hole or a torus, this type of matter develops a number of degenerate states which are locally indistinguishable and could be used to build a quantum memory naturally resistant to errors. Except for the fractional quantum Hall effect there is no experimental evidence as to the existence of topologically ordered phases, and it remains a huge challenge to devel…

Localization–Delocalization in Bridged Mixed-Valence Metal Clusters: Vibronic PKS Model Revisited

2015

Here we describe a new vibronic model of mixed valence (MV) dimer inspired by the conventional Piepho, Krausz, and Schatz (PKS) approach. We attempted to partially lift the main restriction of the PKS model dealing with the vibronically independent moieties of a MV molecule. The refined version of the PKS model in which the bridging ligands are included deals with the three main interactions: electron transfer (integral t0) related to the high-symmetric ligand configuration, on-site vibronic coupling (parameter υ) arising from the modulation of the crystal field on the metal sites by the breathing displacements of their nearest ligand surroundings, and intercenter vibronic coupling (paramet…
