Infrared and Raman spectroscopy of WO3 and CdWO4
2001
Abstract Infrared reflection and Raman spectroscopy have been applied to study the vibrational modes of tungsten trioxide (WO 3 ) and cadmium tungstate (CdWO 4 ). Kramers–Kronig relations are employed to yield the refractive index as well as TO and LO functions of these materials at frequencies from 50 to 1200 cm −1 . The symmetry of the vibrations of CdWO 4 is reported.
Intriguing Photochemistry of the Additives in the Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
2016
Over the years numerous mixes of chemical compounds have been tried in the electrolytes of dye-sensitized solar cells in efforts to improve their efficiency. How these chemicals interact with each other and the photoelectrode has received surprisingly little attention. Here we report results from a systematic study of two I–/I3– electrolytes and their additives using infrared and Raman spectroscopy together with quantum chemical calculations. In the LiI electrolyte competing interactions between lithium cation and the solvent MPN and the additives TBP, NMBI, and GuSCN were identified. These interactions could inhibit the interaction of lithium ions with the TiO2 surface. It was found that u…
Raman and infrared spectromicroscopy of manganese oxides
2009
Abstract Confocal micro-Raman and micro-FT-IR spectroscopies have been used to probe the phase composition of nominally pure single-crystal MnO and mixed MnO–Mn 3 O 4 samples, grown by the method of chemical transport reactions on MgO(1 0 0) substrate. The presence of spinel Mn 3 O 4 phase has been clearly detected in both samples by Raman and FT-IR spectroscopies. The size of the spinel Mn 3 O 4 phase regions has been estimated to be below 20 μm.
Metodologie da stampa a getto d'inchiostro per la fabbricazione di substrati SERS
2019
Uno degli argomenti di maggiore interesse della Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) è il controllo del posizionamento su superficie degli “hot spots” – le zone interstiziali fra aggregati di particelle metalliche che producono un aumento locale del segnale Raman. I substrati SERS consistono tipicamente in una matrice di hot-spots ad alta densità sui quali volumi macroscopici (>1 µL) di molecole di analita sono disperse. Questo approccio porta ad una alta invasività ed una distribuzione non uniforme dell’analita a causa dei flussi capillari. In questo lavoro, viene sviluppata una nuova piattaforma SERS realizzata da stampa a getto d’inchiostro2 in cui una miscela di un analita SERS…
Enhanced light scattering in Si nanostructures produced by pulsed laser irradiation
2013
An innovative method for Si nanostructures (NS) fabrication is proposed, through nanosecond laser irradiation (lambda = 532 nm) of thin Si film (120 nm) on quartz. Varying the laser energy fluences (425-1130 mJ/cm(2)) distinct morphologies of Si NS appear, going from interconnected structures to isolated clusters. Film breaking occurs through a laser-induced dewetting process. Raman scattering is enhanced in all the obtained Si NS, with the largest enhancement in interconnected Si structures, pointing out an increased trapping of light due to multiple scattering. The reported method is fast, scalable and cheap, and can be applied for light management in photovoltaics. (C) 2013 AIP Publishin…
Cyclooctadienine — hoch gespannte C 8 H 8 ‐Kohlenwasserstoffe
1985
Mit Hilfe der MNDO-Methode werden die energiearmsten Konformationen der vier strukturisomeren Cyclooctadienine 1–4 berechnet. Aus ihren Bildungswarmen ΔHf konnen durch Bezug zu den Cyclooctatrienen 5 und 6 die geometrischen Ringspannungen Eg abgeschatzt werden. Als experimentelle Sonde fur die Ringspannung dienen die UV-, IR (Raman)- und 13C-NMR-Spektren. Cyclooctadienynes — Highly Strained C8H8-Hydrocarbons Applying the MNDO-method the conformations with lowest energy of the isomeric cyclooctadienynes 1–4 are calculated. The geometrical ring strains Eg can be evaluated from the enthalpies of formation ΔHf in relation to the cyclooctatrienes 5 and 6. UV, IR (Raman) and 13C NMR spectra serve…

Exploring the Chemical Reactivity between Carbon Dioxide and Three Transition Metals (Au, Pt, and Re) at High-Pressure, High-Temperature Conditions
2016
The role of carbon dioxide, CO2, as oxidizing agent at high pressures and temperatures is evaluated by studying its chemical reactivity with three transition metals: Au, Pt, and Re. We report systematic X-ray diffraction measurements up to 48 GPa and 2400 K using synchrotron radiation and laser-heating diamond-anvil cells. No evidence of reaction was found in Au and Pt samples in this pressure–temperature range. In the Re + CO2 system, however, a strongly–driven redox reaction occurs at P > 8 GPa and T > 1500 K, and orthorhombic β-ReO2 is formed. This rhenium oxide phase is stable at least up to 48 GPa and 2400 K and was recovered at ambient conditions. Raman spectroscopy data confirm graph…
A two-dimensional radical salt based upon BEDT-TTF and the dimeric, magnetic anion [Fe(tdas)2]22−: (BEDT-TTF)2[Fe(tdas)2] (tdas = 1,2,5-thiadiazole-3…
2002
In an attempt to synthesize new synthetic metals which couple magnetic properties to conductivity, we prepared the novel salt (BEDT-TTF)2[Fe(tdas)2] [BEDT-TTF = bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene, hereafter referred to as ET; tdas = 1,2,5-thiadiazole-3,4-dithiolate] by the electrocrystallization technique. The crystal structure of this compound, as determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction, contains conducting, organic ET layers separated by dimerized, magnetic [Fe(tdas)2]22− anions. Due to the magnetic insulating ground electronic state of the ET layer, thermally activated conductivity is observed, with a room temperature value of about 1 S cm−1. This salt was also characterized by…
Photoelectrocatalyzed degradation of organophosphorus pesticide fenamiphos using WO3 nanorods as photoanode
2020
[EN] In this study, WO3 nanostructures were synthesized by the electrochemical anodization technique to use them on the degradation of persistent organic compounds such as the pesticide fenamiphos. The acids electrolyte used during the anodization were two different: 1.5 M H2SO4-0.05 M H2O2 and 1.5 M CH4O3S-0.05 M H2O2. Once the samples have been manufactured, they have been subjected to different tests to analyze the properties of the nanostructures. With Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) the samples have been examined morphologically, their composition and crystallinity has been studied through Raman Spectroscopy and their photoelectrochemical behaviour by Photoelectroch…
