Investigation of the local structure of As-related acceptor centres in InSe by means of fluorescence-detected XAS
2002
In this paper we report on fluorescence-detected XAS measurements in arsenic-doped p-type indium selenide. Absorption spectra taken at the arsenic K-edge allow for an unambiguous determination of the bond length of the As atoms with their first neighbours that turns out to be 2.56 ± 0.02 A. The XANES spectrum and the bond length (as determined from EXAFS oscillations) exhibit weak anisotropy as the angle between the crystal c-axis and the x-ray polarization vector is changed. These results are fully compatible with the model of a single substitutional acceptor (As in Se site), with no bonds along the c-axis (that would give rise to strong linear dicroism in the XANES spectrum). The In–As bo…
Electronic structure of indium selenide probed by magnetoabsorption spectroscopy under high pressure
2010
We report on an investigation of the peculiar electronic structure of the layered semiconductor InSe by magneto-optical experiments under high pressure up to 5 GPa. Magneto-absorption spectroscopy is performed under pulsed magnetic field up to 53 T using a specific setup. Excitonic magnetofingerprints and high-field oscillatory magnetoabsorption yield significant details on the band structure. In addition, the application of an external pressure unveils phenomena that confirm the specific $\mathbf{k}\ensuremath{\cdot}\mathbf{p}$ model proposed for this compound on the basis of earlier measurements.

A study of the atmospherically important reactions between dimethyl selenide (DMSe) and molecular halogens (X2 = Cl2, Br2, and I2) with ab initio cal…
2012
The atmospherically relevant reactions between dimethyl selenide (DMSe) and the molecular halogens (X(2) = Cl(2), Br(2), and I(2)) have been studied with ab initio calculations at the MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ level of theory. Geometry optimization calculations showed that the reactions proceed from the reagents to the products (CH(3)SeCH(2)X + HX) via three minima, a van der Waals adduct (DMSe:X(2)), a covalently bound intermediate (DMSeX(2)), and a product-like complex (CH(3)SeCH(2)X:HX). The computed potential energy surfaces are used to predict what molecular species are likely to be observed in spectroscopic experiments such as gas-phase photoelectron spectroscopy and infrared matrix isolation s…
PIXE ANALYSES OF THE SOLUBLE AND MEMBRANE SE-CONTAINING PROTEINS EXTRACTED FROMCUPRIAVIDUS METALLIDURANSCH34 AFTER SELENIUM OXIDES CHALLENGE
2008
The soil bacterium Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34 resist selenite by reducing it into the insoluble and less toxic elemental selenium. Two mechanisms of reduction of selenium oxides in C. metallidurans CH34 were highlighted: assimilation leading to organic species and detoxification leading to precipitation of selenite in nanoparticules of elemental selenium. The alkyl selenide detected as an intermediate product during assimilation of selenite or as the major accumulated chemical form during assimilation of selenate was identified as selenomethionine.Soluble and membrane proteins were extracted from C. metallidurans CH34 submitted to selenium oxides challenge. After separation by SDS-PAGE,…
Scanning tunneling microscopy investigation of tricycloquinazoline liquid crystals on gold
2000
Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of hexaalkylthioether derivatives of tricycloquinazoline (TCQ) on Au(111) and tungsten diselenide (WSe2) were investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The Au(111) surfaces were found to be etched by the thioether containing solutions. Corroded surfaces which are similar to gold surfaces that were coated with SAMs of thiols or disulfides were revealed by STM. Atomic adsorption spectroscopy proved that an amount of gold that corresponds to ca. 30% of a monolayer was dissolved in the assembly solutions. On gold, the aromatic cores of the molecules were found to be in face-on orientation. The alkyl substituents were in most cases folded upwards and s…

Bis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazolyl)selenide--a new bidentate bent connector for preparation of 1D and 2D co-ordination polymers.
2007
The synthesis and description of eight polymeric complexes formed by transition metals with the bifurcated ligand bis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazolyl)selenide are discussed together with X-ray crystal analysis as well as variable temperature magnetic susceptibility and characterization by Mossbauer spectroscopy. Preferable types of binding patterns of the ligand were determined, which include a variation of the bridging modes (cis- and trans-) and of the separation length, where the latter parameter together with bending of the ligand molecule were found to be dependent on the type of co-ordination geometry of the central atom and the nature of the anion. A strategy for increasing the structure d…
Trapping Rare and Elusive Phosphinidene Chalcogenides
2017
Four-membered rings with a P2Ch2 core (Ch=S, Se) and phosphorus in the +3 oxidation state have been synthesized. The utility of these rings as a source of monomeric phosphinidene chalcogenides was probed by the addition of an N-heterocyclic carbene, resulting in a base-stabilized phosphinidene sulfide. Similarly, persistence of the phosphinidene selenide in solution was shown through cycloaddition chemistry with 2,3-dimethylbutadiene at elevated temperatures. The observed reactivity was explained by detailed computational work that established the conditions upon which the P2Ch2 rings can liberate phosphinidene chalcogenides. peerReviewed
Mo-Based Oxidizers as Powerful Tools for the Synthesis of Thia- and Selenaheterocycles.
2019
A highly efficient synthetic protocol for the synthesis of thia- and selenaheterocycles has been developed. By employing a MoCl5 -mediated intramolecular dehydrogenative coupling reaction, a broad variety of structural motifs was isolated in yields up to 94 %. The electrophilic key transformation is tolerated by several labile moieties like halides and tertiary alkyl groups. Due to the use of disulfide or diselenide precursors, a high atom efficiency was achieved.
