Smart High-κ Nanodielectrics Using Solid Supported Polyoxometalate-Rich Nanostructures
2011
Utilizing Langmuir-Blodgett deposition and scanning probe microscopy, we have investigated the extent to which cations alter the self-assembly processes of hybrid polyoxometalates (POMs) on surfaces. The well-defined 2D hexagonal nanostructures obtained were extensively characterized and their properties were studied, and this has revealed fascinating dielectric behavior and reversible capacitive properties. The nanostructures are extremely stable under ambient conditions, and yet exhibit fascinating self-patterning upon heating. These findings present POMs as effective smart nanodielectrics and open up a new field for future POM applications. (c) 2011 American Chemical Society.
Assembly of modular asymmetric organic-inorganic polyoxometalate hybrids into anisotropic nanostructures.
2010
Three organic-inorganic hybrid Mn-Anderson polyoxometalates (POMs), with both symmetrical and asymmetrical appended groups, have been synthesized, identified using electrospray mass spectrometry, and isolated using an approach that allows the three AA, BB, and AB compounds to be structurally characterized. Investigation of the self-assembly of the hybrids on hydrophilic surfaces reveals the formation of nanofibres with characteristics that reflect the nature of the substitution of the POM yielding a route to the programmed assembly of anisotropic hybrid nanostructures.
Hierarchical Assembly of TiO2 Nanoparticles on WS2 Nanotubes Achieved Through Multifunctional Polymeric Ligands
2007
Thefunctionalization of nanotubes is required in order to bene-fit from their outstanding properties, as any application inmaterials and devices is hindered by processing and manipu-lation difficulties. Only the attachment of appropriate chem-ical functionalities on the nanotube surface allows tailoringof the properties for the respective applications. As an ex-ample, the enhancement of the nanotube solubility is onemajor task since most pristine nanotubes are insoluble inboth water and organic solvents. Thus, the improvement ofthe solubility by chemical functionalization is an importantconcept for synthetic chemists and materials scientists. Tai-loring of the surface chemical bonds might a…
Restricting Magnetic Interaction Pathways in Polyoxometalate Salts of Cationic Nitronyl Nitroxide Free Radicals
2004
Abstract : Salts 1 and 2 that combine the [W 6 O 19 ] 2- Lindqvist anion with the cationic nitronyl nitroxide (NN) free radicals p -MepyNN + and n Bu 3 NCH 2 NN + , respectively, have been synthesized and their structural and magnetic properties have been studied. Keywords: Nitroxide radicals, polyoxometalates, magnetism. Introduction Ferromagnetism based on purely organic materials has raised a lot of interest during the last decade [1]. Most of the studies have been performed with nitronyl nitroxide (NN) radicals due to their persistence, stability and ease of functionalization [2]. Bulk ferromagnetism in these compounds arises from ferromagnetic interactions between open-shell molecules …
Monolacunary Keggin polyoxometalates connected to ten 4d or 4f metal atoms.
2013
The rational self-assembly of mono-lacunary Keggin clusters with 4d and 4f metal salts via a conventional method has yielded two novel polyoxometalate-based 4d-4f heterometallic compounds containing lacunary Keggin anions connected to ten metal atoms: {[Ag{Ag2(H2O)4}{Ln(H2O)6}2H ⊂ {SiW11Ln(H2O)4O39}2]·nH2O (Ln = Ce and n = 7 for 1, Ln = Pr and n = 3 for 2). Their structures were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and further characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra, and thermogravimetric (TG) analyses. A structural feature in 1 and 2 is that each [SiW11O39](8-) cluster (SiW11) is connected to ten metals (five Ag(+) and five Ln(3+) cations), representing the highe…
High-nuclearity Ni-substituted polyoxometalates: a series of poly(polyoxotungstate)s containing 20–22 nickel centers.
2011
Three high-nuclearity Ni-substituted polyoxotungstates (POTs)--[Ni(enMe)2(H2O)2]2[Ni(H2O)6]2[Ni(enMe)2][Ni(H2O)2]1.5[HNi20X4W34(OH)4O136(H2O)6(enMe)8]·11 H2O (3), [Ni(en)2(H2O)]2[H8Ni21X4W34(OH)4O136(en)10(H2O)5]·22 H2O (4), and [Ni(enMe)2]2[H6Ni22X4W34(OH)4O136(H2O)6(enMe)10]·18 H2O (5), in which en = ethylenediamine, enMe = 1,2-diaminopropane, X = 0.5 P+0.5 Ge--were made under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structures of 3–5 can be viewed as novel derivatives of [H6Ni20P4W34(OH)4O136(enMe)8(H2O)6]·12 H 2O (1) and [Ni(en)2(H2O)]2[H8Ni20P4W34(OH)…
Dioxomolybdenum(VI) and -tungsten(VI) complexes with tetradentate aminobis(phenol)s
2006
Abstract Aminobis(phenol) ligands (H2Ln) carrying either a dimethylamino, a pyridyl or a methoxy sidearm donor were used in the preparation of new tungsten and molybdenum complexes. Treatment of [W(eg)3] (eg = 1,2-ethanediolate dianion) with H2Ln under hydrolytic conditions in a CHCl3–MeOH mixture gave the cis-dioxotungsten(VI) complexes [WO2(Ln)] in good yields. The corresponding molybdenum complexes [MoO2(Ln)] were prepared from [MoO2(acac)2] and respective ligands. The solid-state structures of two molybdenum and one tungsten compounds were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction, which revealed that the dianionic aminobis(phenolate) backbones of the ligands have coordinated to th…
High-pressure x-ray absorption spectroscopy study of tin tungstates
2015
Room-temperature pressure-dependent (0-25 GPa) x-ray absorption spectroscopy at the W -edges of α-SnWO4 and β-SnWO4 was performed using a dispersive setup and a high-pressure nanodiamond anvil cell. The detailed analysis of experimental x-ray absorption near-edge structure and extended x-ray absorption fine structure data suggests that upon increasing pressure, a displacement of tungsten atoms by about 0.2 A toward the center of the WO6 octahedra occurs in α-SnWO4, whereas the coordination of tungsten atoms changes from tetrahedral to distorted octahedral in β-SnWO4.
