Synthesis and low-frequency vibrational spectra of some halo- and pseudohalo-diphenylantimonates(V)
1976
Abstract The syntheses of diphenylantimonates(V) of the type M(I) [PH 2 XbX 4 ] (M(I) = PH 4 As; X = F, Cl, Br, N 3 , NCS; X 4 = Cl 3 Br, Cl 3 N 3 ) are described. Far-Ir spectra of these compounds and of previously synthesized M(I) [Ph 2 SbCl 3 X] species (M(I) = Me 4 N; X = Cl, Br, N 3 ; M(I) = Ph 4 As; X = NCS) are reported. Raman spectra of tetrafluoro and tetrachloro salts are also given. Vibrational data are interpreted in terms of the presence of solid of trans -Ph 2 SbX 4 - species and assignments of skeletal modes are suggested.
Organoelement derivatives of steroids: synthesis and structural characterization of diorganotin chloride adducts of hormones
1986
Abstract Ten new diorganotin dichloride adducts of hormones of the type R 2 SnCl 2 ·2L [where R = Me, Et, n-Bu, Oct and Ph; L = 4-androsten-17s-ol-3-one ( A ); 5-androsten-3s-ol-17-one ( B ); 4-androsten-17α- methyl-17s-ol-3-one ( C ) and 3,17-dihydroxy-5- pregnene-20-one ( D )] have been prepared and characterized at 297 K and 223 K. Spectroscopic measurements (IR; Raman; 1 H, 13 C, 119 Sn NMR) suggest the dissociation or fast ligand exchange in solution at 297 K. Hexa-coordinated adducts with bonding through carbonyl oxygen and trans -R groups in octahedral geometry are formulated at 223 K.
Studies of Reversible Hydrogen Binding in Nano- Sized Materials
2015
Experimental review of materials suitable for reversible hydrogen binding in nanoporous and nanosized structures of materials, based on natural zeolite (clinoptilolite) and graphene (exfoliated electrochemically from raw graphite), were analyzed. Characterization of materials with SEM, XRD, EDS and Raman spectroscopy methods and aspects of synthesis of a nanostructured zeolite and a few-layer graphite material was done in this work. It was established from gas analyzer results that hydrogen mass fraction in natural zeolite ranged from 1.1 % to 1.4 %, but in the few-layer graphite material − from 0.39 % to 0.46 %.
Sorting of Single Biomolecules based on Fourier Polar Representation of Surface Enhanced Raman Spectra
2016
AbstractSurface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy becomes increasingly used in biosensors for its capacity to detect and identify single molecules. In practice, a large number of SERS spectra are acquired and reliable ranking methods are thus essential for analysing all these data. Supervised classification strategies, which are the most effective methods, are usually applied but they require pre-determined models or classes. In this work, we propose to sort SERS spectra in unknown groups with an alternative strategy called Fourier polar representation. This non-fitting method based on simple Fourier sine and cosine transforms produces a fast and graphical representation for sor…
The effect of Cu substitution on the A1g mode of La(0.7)Sr(0.3)MnO3 manganites
2003
We report on the first Raman data of Cu substituted La(1-y)Sr(y)Mn(1-x)Cu(x)O3 (0 < x < 0.10 and 0.17 < y < 0.3, accordingly in order to have the same Mn(4+)/[Mn(4+)+Mn(3+)] ratio), collected in the frequency range 100-900 cm-1 and at room temperature, with parallel and crossed polarizations of the incident and scattered light. Spectra were fitted with a Drude-Lorentz model, and peaks at 190-220 and 430 cm-1, together with two broad structures centered at near 500 and 670 cm-1, have been found. We also have observed that the A1g mode is substantially shifted with increasing Cu substitution. The A1g phonon shift is a linear function of the tolerance factor t and the rhombohedral …
Direct atomic layer deposition of ultrathin aluminium oxide on monolayer $MoS_2$ exfoliated on gold: the role of the substrate
2021
In this paper we demonstrated the thermal Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) growth at 250 {\deg}C of highly homogeneous and ultra-thin ($\approx$ 3.6 nm) $Al_2O_3$ films with excellent insulating properties directly onto a monolayer (1L) $MoS_2$ membrane exfoliated on gold. Differently than in the case of 1L $MoS_2$ supported by a common insulating substrate ($Al_2O_3/Si$), a better nucleation process of the high-k film was observed on the 1L $MoS_2/Au$ system since the ALD early stages. Atomic force microscopy analyses showed a $\approx 50\%$ $Al_2O_3$ surface coverage just after 10 ALD cycles, its increasing up to $>90\%$ (after 40 cycles), and an uniform $\approx$ 3.6 nm film, after 80 cycle…
Influence of strain in the reduction of the internal electric field in GaN/AlN quantum dots grown ona-plane 6H-SiC
2006
The strain state of stacks of GaN/AIN quantum dots (QDs) grown on (0001) and (1120) 6H-SiC has been investigated by means of Raman spectroscopy. Depending on the orientation of the wurtzite axis with respect to the growth direction it is found that the piezoelectric contribution to the electrostatic potential may either reinforce that arising from the spontaneous polarization or oppose it. The experimental results are compared with a theoretical model for the strain and polarization field in QDs of both orientations that allows the calculation of the electrostatic potential in the QDs. Both the experimental results and the theoretical model indicate that the internal electric field and elec…
Inelastic neutron and low-frequency Raman scattering in niobium-phosphate glasses: the role of spatially fluctuating elastic and elasto-optic constan…
2011
We investigate the low-frequency enhancement of vibrational excitations ('boson peak') in niobium-phosphate glasses through the combination of inelastic neutron and polarization-resolved Raman scattering. The spectra of these glasses reveal an enhancement of the vibrational density of states and of the cross section for spontaneous Raman scattering in the frequency range below 150?cm ? 1. A recent theoretical model that is based on fluctuating elastic and elasto-optic (Pockels) constants provides a unified description of the measured neutron and Raman spectra, including the depolarization ratio.
Raman Scattering in CuCl under Pressure
1999
Raman spectra of CuCl were measured under hydrostatic pressures up to 14 GPa at low temperatures (T = 5 K). The anomaly in the Raman lineshape of zincblende CuCl at frequencies near the transverse-optic (TO) mode, which consists of a broad structure with several maxima, disappears at a pressure near 3 GPa. This effect is well reproduced by a model calculation of the anharmonic coupling of the TO mode to acoustic two-phonon states (Fermi resonance). Alternative interpretations of the TO Raman anomaly in terms of local vibrational modes of Cu atoms in off-center positions are not supported by the present results. Raman spectra indicate the existence of the phase CuCl-IIa in a narrow pressure …
Pressure measurements of TO-phonon anharmonicity in isotopic ZnS
2004
We have measured the dependence on pressure of the line-widths of the TO and LO Raman phonons of β-ZnS. In order to enhance the phenomena observed, and to eliminate possible effects of isotopic disorder, we have measured a nearly isotopically pure crystal, 68 Zn 32 S. The strongly structured pressure effects observed are interpreted on the basis of anharmonic decay and the corresponding two-phonon density of states.
