X-ray absorption near-edge structure of GaN with high Mn concentration grown on SiC.
2009
By means of x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) several Ga(1-x)Mn(x)N (0.03x0.09) layers have been analyzed. The Mn-doped GaN samples consisted of different epilayers grown by molecular beam epitaxy on [0001] SiC substrates. The low mismatch between GaN and SiC allows for a good quality and homogeneity of the material. The measurements were performed in fluorescence mode around both the Ga and Mn K edges. All samples studied present a similar Mn ionization state, very close to 2+, and tetrahedral coordination. In order to interpret the near-edge structure, we have performed ab initio calculations using the full potential linear augmented plane wave method as implemented in the Wien…
Interpretation of the electronic absorption spectrum of free base porphin by using multiconfigurational second-order perturbation theory
1998
Abstract Multiconfigurational second-order perturbation (CASPT2) calculations have been performed on the low-lying optically allowed valence excited states of the free base porphin molecule in order to assign the four lowest bands of the spectrum. The low-lying triplet states have also been characterized. A basis set of the atomic natural orbital type of split-valence plus polarization quality for first-row atoms has been employed. Polarization functions are important for an accurate description of the transitions. These CASPT2 results provide a consistent picture of the experimental spectrum. Each band of the spectrum up to 4.5 eV is composed of a pair of states, which become degenerate in…
A Theoretical Insight into the Photophysics of Acridine
2001
The electronic absorption and emission spectra of acridine have been studied by means of a multiconfigurational second-order perturbation method (CASSCF/CASPT2) and its multistate extension (MS-CASPT2). The low-lying valence singlet and triplet π → π* and n → π* excited states have been computed. The location of the lowest Rydberg state (3s) has been also estimated. By optimization of the geometries of the ground and low-lying excited states and the calculation of transition energies and properties, the obtained results lead to a complete analysis and assignment of the available experimental singlet−singlet and triplet−triplet absorption spectra and to the description of the basic features …
Synthesis and Electronic Spectra of Substitutedp-Distyrylbenzenes for the Use in Light-Emitting Diodes
2000
The influence of substitution on the absorption and Luminescence spectra of oligo(phenylenevinylene)s has been studied using distyrylbenzene (DSB) as a model compound. The degree, character, and pattern of substitution was varied systematically, altering the electronic properties of the DSB, the wavelength of the emitted light could be tuned over a range of 100 nm. The syntheses of 6b—h were performed by twofold Wittig Horner-olefinations of bisphoshonates 1a, b with substituted benzaldehydes 2a—i, 6ivia Heck-reaction of the dibromosulfonylbenzene 3, 6k by Siegrist-reaction of 4 with N-phenylbenzaldimine and the Knoevenagel-reaction of benzyl cyanide with 5 led to 6l.
Absolute cross-sections for the nonresonant multi-photon ionization of toluene and xylene in the gas phase
2001
Abstract The absolute multi-photon ionization cross-section of the phenyl ring was determined by laser-ionization of toluene and xylene molecules in the gas phase. Excitation was achieved using nonresonant four-photon absorption of the frequency doubled light of a 10 ns pulsed Nd:YAG laser (532 nm). The resulting ions were stored in a Penning trap and detected by time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The values of the cross-sections are 1.4(3)×10 −42 cm 8 W −4 s −1 and 1.3(3)×10 −42 cm 8 W −4 s −1 for toluene and xylene, respectively.
Herstellung und eigenschaften von photometrisch quantitativ bestimmbaren, bei der polymerisation vernetzenden bisacrylsäureestern und von bispropions…
1969
Es wurden 6 Bisacrylsaureester hergestellt, die photometrisch quantitativ bestimmbare Strukturgruppen enthalten. Angaben zur Loslichkeit, IR-, UV-Absorptions- und 1H-NMR-Spektren dienten zur Charakterisierung der Verbindungen. Daneben wurden Dipropionsaureester synthetisiert, die sich durch Austausch der Acrylsaure- gegen die Propionsaurereste von den Bisacrylsaureestern ableiten. Verdunnte Losungen der Bisacrylsaure- und Dipropionsaureester folgen im Bereich von 250–450 mμ dem BOUGUER-LAMBERT-BEER-schen Gestz. Aus den Ergebnissen der Homopolymerisation der Bisacrylsaureester last sich schliesen, welche Ester fur eine einfache photometrische Analyse schwach vernetzter Copolymerer in Betrach…
Diaryldistyrylpyrazines: Solvatochromic and Acidochromic Fluorophores
2013
Diaryldimethylpyrazines are the starting materials for the synthesis of C2-symmetric donor- or acceptor-substituted distyrylpyrazines. The optical properties of these cruciform-shaped dyes are dominated by the distyrylpyrazine units; the photophysics is controlled by the styryl substitution, the diaryl substituents on the central pyrazine only having a small effect. Protonation occurs on the pyrazine and/or lateral amines or azines, thereby altering the absorption and emission properties. Hypso- and bathochromism as well as fluorescence quenching depend on the nature of the terminal substituent. This, and a significant positive solvatochromism of the fluorescence, allow optical sensing of t…
Alkoxy-Substituted Hexastyrylbenzenes
2003
Star-shaped compounds 2a–e with a central benzene ring and six p-substituted, (E)-configured styryl groups have been prepared by a sequence of three-fold Heck and three-fold Wittig–Horner reactions. Alkoxy chains (OC3H7, OC6H13, OC10H21, OC12H25) on all six arms guarantee a good solubility of 2a–d, whereas the alternating hexyloxy and cyano substitution in 2e leads to an almost insoluble push-pull system. Irradiation into the long-wavelength absorption of 2a–d (with λmax values of 341–342 nm) results in a statistical photocross-linking, which is characterized by the complete degradation of all stilbene chromophores.
DELAYED ELECTRON EMISSION OF NEGATIVELY CHARGED TUNGSTEN CLUSTERS
1996
The delayed electron emission of negatively charged tungsten clusters has been investigated on a time scale from 1 to 500 ms. After being stored in a Penning trap clusters ions [Formula: see text] were heated via multiphoton absorption (hν=1.81 eV). In contrast to alkali and coinage metals no photofragmentation could be detected. Instead, for all cluster sizes studied so far only a decrease in the initial ion intensity as a function of time after excitation was observed. This decrease is not caused by ion loss from the trap, but has to be attributed to neutralization via delayed electron emission. The presented results strongly suggest that this process can be viewed as “thermionic emissio…
Through-bond versus through-space T1 energy transfers in organometallic compound-metalloporphyrin pigments
2009
The preparation and characterization of two d9−d9 M2-bonded Pt2(dppm)2(C≡CC6H4-M(P))2 complexes (where M = Zn or Pd, and P = diethylhexamethylporphyrin) were achieved. The central [Pt2(dppm)2(C≡CC6H4)2] organometallic unit appears to be an independent chromophore and is suspected to be luminescent at 77 K (in 2MeTHF) in the porphyrin-containing complexes, as this is the case for the unfunctionalized Pt2(dppm)2(C≡CPh)2 parent compound. However, when this spacer is connected (by a single C−C bond) to either M(P) (M = Zn, Pd), even in the absence of conjugation (as the computed dihedral angle between the C6H4 and porphyrin planes is ∼84.5°), total quenching of the luminescence of the [Pt2(dppm…
