Re-investigation of the conformational interconversion of the 1,2,3,6,7,8-hexahydropyrene cation radical by EPR, ENDOR and TRIPLE spectroscopy
1985
The conformational interconversion of the 1,2,3,6,7,8-hexahydropyrene cation radical has been re-examined by EPR, ENDOR and TRIPLE spectroscopy, and the Arrhenius plot is presented for a wider temperature range than that used earlier. The EPR spectra were measured from 143 to 369 K and the ENDOR spectra from 143 to 263 K. The thermodynamic constants of the conformational interconversion of the cation radical were determined on the basis of the temperature-dependent spectra. The high-resolution spectra clearly show that there are two overlapping spectra at low temperature, and this is confirmed by simulation.
Malonato complexes of oxidovanadium(IV): Synthesis, structural characterization and exploration of their insulin mimetic properties
2011
Abstract Several bis-malonatooxidovanadium(IV) complexes of the general type [M2(H2O)n][VO(mal)2(H2O)] (where M = Li(1), Na(2), K(3), Cs(4) and NH4(5); n = 3.5, 1, 3, 1 and 1, respectively) were isolated in good yield and high purity. These complexes were fully characterized by various physicochemical techniques (elemental analysis, UV–Vis, IR, EPR, CV, etc.) complexes 1, 2 and 3 were structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction technique. In vivo antidiabetic properties of bis-malonato complexes 1, 2, 3 and 5 have been studied using Streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. Significant lowering of blood sugar level has been noticed. At the same time these complexes were found…
Experimental evidence of E’_gamma centers generation from oxygen vacancies in a-SiO2
2007
Abstract We report on the thermal treatment effects in a γ-ray irradiated oxygen deficient amorphous silicon dioxide (a-SiO2) containing Al impurities. We observed that by thermal treatments the intensity of the 7.6 eV optical absorption band, associated to an oxygen deficient center, and the EPR signal amplitude of irradiation induced [AlO4]0 centers gradually decrease. During these thermal treatments, the E γ ′ centers concentration is found to increase in a correlated way to the decrease of the 7.6 eV absorption amplitude. These results are interpreted assuming an hole-transfer process from the [AlO4]0 centers to the diamagnetic oxygen vacancies, resulting in the generation of E γ ′ cent…
Analysis of Mn2+EPR spectral shapes for studies of the oxyfluoride glass ceramics
2011
We investigated the EPR superhyperfine structure of the Mn 2+ ion in the disordered BaF2 crystalline media which tends to crystallize in the oxyfluoride glass-ceramics material. Obtained EPR spectra reveal explicit shf structure due to Mn 2+ ion building into the BaF2 lattice showing its usefulness as a probe in orientationally disordered and amorphous structures. Two types with explicit shf structure of Mn 2+ ion characteristic EPR spectra were obtained in BaF2 powder samples characteristic with broad (type 1) and narrow (type 2) hyperfine structure lines. Spectra of the ZnF2-BaF2 oxyfluoride glass-ceramics samples revealed explicit fine structure lines.
Evidences for the Formation of Chromium in the Unusual Oxidation State Cr(IV)
1999
Abstract Magnetic measurements on Tl x Cr 5 Se 8 (0≤ x ≤1) reveal that stoichiometric TlCr 5 Se 8 is a three-dimensional antiferromagnet with a Neel temperature T N of about 55 K. In contrast, samples with a reduced Tl content show highly unusual magnetic properties that are without precedent in the literature of magnetically coupled systems: upon lowering the temperature from 300 K the susceptibility reaches a maximum at about 125 K and then steeply drops to a value comparable to that obtained at room temperature. The height of this maximum increases first with decreasing Tl abundance reaching its largest value at a composition Tl 0.2 Cr 5 Se 8 and then decreases again for samples with x 3…
Experimental evidence for two different precursors of Eγ′ centers in silica
2004
Abstract Electron paramagnetic resonance measurements of concentration and line shape of E γ ′ centers induced by γ ray irradiation are presented for natural and synthetic commercial silica with different OH contents. Synthetic materials with OH content >200 ppm by weight show one line shape for all investigated doses. In contrast, the other materials show a different line shape at low irradiation doses. Differences are also observed in the concentration growth of the E γ ′ centers in synthetic wet materials and in the other materials. The results are interpreted as evidence of two E γ ′ centers distinguishable by their line shape and having different precursors.
Recombination processes in rare-earth doped MAl2O4(M = Ca, Sr) persistent phosphors investigated by optically-detected magnetic resonance
2007
Single crystalline MAl 2 O 4 (M = Ca and Sr) persistent phosphors, which are nominally pure or additionally doped with Eu and Nd or Dy, respectively, were investigated for their recombination luminescence (RL) and microwave-induced changes in the RL at low temperatures. The analysis of the optically-detected electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra, recorded after ultraviolet excitation at 4.2 K, shows that intrinsic donor and acceptor centres are involved in the recombination process. Spectral dependent RL-EPR measurements on undoped CaAl 2 O 4 (CAO) and SrAl 2 O 4 (SAO) show that we deal with only one donor but at least two different acceptors. The g value of the donor is 1.99 in CAO…
Eu2+ Stabilization in YAG Structure: Optical and Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Study
2016
A set of Eu-doped Y3Al5O12 (YAG) phosphors in the powder form was successfully synthesized by multiple-step solid-state reaction under the reducing Ar:5%H2 atmosphere. Their physical properties were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction, time-resolved luminescence spectroscopy, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). Special attention was given to well-grounded confirmation of Eu2+ occurrence in the YAG structure. X-ray diffraction confirmed the presence of a major YAG phase in all samples. The influence of Eu concentration, form of doping (EuS, EuF2, or Eu2O3) and number/form of annealing steps was studied. Corresponding characteristics were measured and evaluated in a broad temper…
Hot electron injection into aqueous electrolyte solution from thin insulating film-coated electrodes
1998
Hot electron injection into aqueous electrolyte solution was studied with electrochemiluminescence and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) methods. Both methods provide further indirect support for the previously proposed hot electron emission mechanisms from thin insulating film-coated electrodes to aqueous electrolyte solution. The results do not rule out the possibility of hydrated electron being as a cathodic intermediate in the reduction reactions at cathodically pulse-polarized thin insulating film-coated electrodes. However, no direct evidence for electrochemical generation of hydrated electrons could be obtained with EPR, only spin-trapping experiments could give information about…
Synthesis and molecular and electronic structures of a series of Mo3CoSe4 cluster complexes with three different metal electron populations.
2008
The synthesis, crystal structure, and magnetic properties of [Mo 3(CoCO)Se 4(dmpe) 3Cl 3] ( 1), [Mo 3(CoCl)Se 4(dmpe) 3Cl 3] ( 2), and [Mo 3(CoCl)Se 4(dmpe) 3Cl 3](TCNQ) ([ 2](TCNQ)) (dmpe = 1,2-bis(dimethylphosphanyl)ethane; TCNQ = 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinomethane) cubane-type complexes with 16, 15, and 14 metal electrons, respectively, are reported. These compounds complete the series of cobalt-containing Mo 3CoQ 4 (Q = S, Se) cubane-type complexes, which allows a complete analysis of the consequences of replacing the inner chalcogen and the metal electron count on the structural, magnetic, and electrochemical properties. The experimental evidence is theoretically supported and rationalized…
