Antimony-121 Mössbauer and infrared spectral studies on 1,10-phenanthroline adducts of antimony(III) halides
1983
Abstract The syntheses of the mono-adducts of 1,10-phenanthroline with SbX 3 (X = F, Cl, Br) and PhSbI 2 are described. These compounds and the 1:1 adduct between 2,2′-bipyridine and PhSbI 2 have been characterized mainly in the solid state by infrared and Mossbauer spectroscopic techniques. The structures of the antimony trihalide complexes appear to be based on halogen bridged polymers in which the stereochemical activity of the lone pair of electrons varies with the halogen, the highest p-character of the lone pair being observed with the trifluoride adduct. Mossbauer results for the PhSbI 2 complexes suggest a ψ-octahedral stereochemistry with the lone pair and the Ph group in trans pos…
Bismuth trihalide complexes with nitrogen and phosphorus chelating ligands
1985
Abstract Bismuth(III) halides react with 1,10-phenanthroline, 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde-2-pyridylhydrazone and diphenylphosphynoethane in methanol. A stoichiometry differing from 1:1 is found only for BiCl 3 (Phen) 1.33 and BiCl 3 (Dpe) 1.5 . Characterization of these compounds, which are not very soluble in common solvents, follows from analytical, mass and IR spectral data. In the low frequency region, the IR spectra proved to be useful to ascertain the presence of bridging halogens.
Layer-dependent mechanical properties and enhanced plasticity in the van der Waals chromium trihalide magnets
2020
The mechanical properties of magnetic materials are instrumental for the development of the magnetoelastic theory and the optimization of strain-modulated magnetic devices. In particular, two-dimensional (2D) magnets hold promise to enlarge these concepts into the realm of low-dimensional physics and ultrathin devices. However, no experimental study on the intrinsic mechanical properties of the archetypal 2D magnet family of the chromium trihalides has thus far been performed. Here, we report the room temperature layer-dependent mechanical properties of atomically thin CrI3 and CrCl3, finding that bilayers of CrI3 and CrCl3 have Young's moduli of 62.1 GPa and 43.4 GPa, with the highest sust…
Recombination in Perovskite Solar Cells
2017
Trap-assisted recombination, despite being lower as compared with traditional inorganic solar cells, is still the dominant recombination mechanism in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and limits their efficiency. We investigate the attributes of the primary trap assisted recombination channels (grain boundaries and interfaces) and their correlation to defect ions in PSCs. We achieve this by using a validated device model to fit the simulations to the experimental data of efficient vacuum-deposited p-i-n and n-i-p CH3NH3PbI3 solar cells, including the light intensity dependence of the open circuit voltage and fill factor. We find that, despite the presence of traps at interfaces and grain bounda…
Raman Imaging of Single Carbon Nanotubes
2000
[19] The single crystals of the Bu4NBr0.6I1.4Cl salt, were obtained by addition of IBr to a solution of Bu4NCl in ethanol at a reagent ratio of 1:0.5. Stoichiometry of the anion has been found by EDX. Based on a Raman study the anion consists of the I2Br ‐ (band at 140 cm ‐1 ), IBr2 ‐ (band at 150‐ 176 cm ‐1 ), BrICl ‐ (band at 225 cm ‐1 ), and ICl2 ‐ (band at 250‐263 cm ‐1 ) trihalide anions. [20] The X-ray diffraction data from single crystals for both trihalide salts were measured using an Enraf Nonius CAD4 diffractometer with graphite monochromatic Mo Ka radiation (k = 0.71073 a) at room temperature. Unit cell parameters of the new a¢¢¢- crystal were determined from a leastsquares analy…
Radiation creation of cation defects in alkali halide crystals: Review and today's concept (Review Article)
2018
Irradiation of alkali halide crystals creates pairs of Frenkel defects both in anion and cation sublattices. However, the particular nonimpact creation mechanisms (related to the decay of different electronic excitations) of cation Frenkel pairs are still unclear. At helium temperatures, there is yet no direct evidences of the creation of stable (long-lived) elemental cation defects. On the other hand, a number of complex structural defects containing cation vacancies and/or interstitials, were detected after irradiation of alkali halides at higher temperatures. Besides already proved mechanism related to the association of H and VK centers into trihalide molecules, the following possibilit…
Improving the Long‐Term Stability of Doped Spiro‐Type Hole‐Transporting Materials in Planar Perovskite Solar Cells
2021
The improvement of the long-term stability of perovskite-based solar cells (PSCs) toward commercialization is closely linked to the development of cutting-edge charge-transporting materials. The progress on the design and the synthesis of new hole-transporting materials (HTMs) is synergistically attaining both top efficiencies and promising stability. Herein, the synthesis and characterization of two doped-HTMs based on electron-rich spiranic cores, namely, 9H-quinolinophenoxazine (spiro-POZ) and 9H-quinolinophenothiazine (spiro-PTZ), are presented. The novel HTMs exhibit excellent solubility, optimal highest occupied molecular orbital energy, and excellent thermal stability with glass tran…
A coupled-cluster study of lanthanum trihalide structures
2002
Coupled-cluster calculations were carried at the CCSD(T)-level in order to determine the structures and vibrational spectra of the lanthanum trihalides LaF3 and LaCl3. Two different approaches were employed to describe scalar relativistic effects; the quasi-relativistic Effective Core Potential approach and the all-electron Douglas–Kroll approach. We find LaF3 to be of pyramidal structure and LaCl3 to be planar. The obtained vibrational frequencies accord well with experimental measurements except for the ν2 mode. This disagreement is attributed to the intrinsic uncertainty of harmonic frequencies of this fluxional mode as extracted from spectra which were obtained at high temperature and f…
Preparation and processing of nanocomposites of all-inorganic lead halide perovskite nanocrystals
2021
Abstract Solution processed all-inorganic trihalide perovskite nanocrystals are potential materials for the fabrication of future generation optoelectronic devices. However, the surface of the perovskite nanocrystals should be encapsulated to prevent degradation. Because of their stability under ambient conditions, nanocomposites of perovskite nanocrystals have been intensively researched for display applications. Perovskite nanocrystals dispersion or growth in a polymer matrix imparts structural stability and influences the optical properties, preventing effects such as halide migration. Developing flexible, high-performance lighting devices through perovskite nanocomposites will need to b…
