Beta decay of neutron-rich cobalt and nickel isotopes

1998

We report on the first β-γ spectroscopy measurements of the neutron-rich 68–70Co and 70–74Ni nuclei, produced in proton-induced fission of 238U and ionized in a laser ion guide coupled to an on-line mass separator. Several γ lines from the decay of these nuclei have been identified, half-lives determined and production cross sections deduced. The derived level schemes for the copper and nickel isotopes show that the occupation of the ν(1g9/2) state has a strong influence on the structure of these neutron-rich nuclei. This may have a clear impact on the predicted structure and decay properties of doubly-magic 78Ni.

Synergistic Effects of Surface Coating and Bulk Doping in Ni-Rich Lithium Nickel Cobalt Manganese Oxide Cathode Materials for High-Energy Lithium Ion…

2022

Ni-rich layered oxide cathodes are promising candidates to satisfy the increasing energy demand of lithium-ion batteries for automotive applications. Thermal and cycling stability issues originating from increasing Ni contents are addressed by mitigation strategies such as elemental bulk substitution ("doping") and surface coating. Although both approaches separately benefit the cycling stability, there are only few reports investigating the combination of two of such approaches. Herein, the combination of Zr as common dopant in commercial materials with effective Li2 WO4 and WO3 coatings was investigated with special focus on the impact of different material processing conditions on struct…

Strontium and iron-doped barium cobaltite prepared by solution combustion synthesis: exploring a mixed-fuel approach for tailored intermediate temper…

2013

Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3-? (BSCF) powders were prepared by solution combustion synthesis using single and double fuels. The effect of the fuel mixture on the main properties of this well-known solid oxide fuel cell cathode material with high oxygen ion and electronic conduction was investigated in detail. Results showed that the fuel mixture significantly affected the area-specific resistance of the BSCF cathode materials, by controlling the oxygen deficiency and stabilizing the Co2+ oxidation state. It was demonstrated that high fuel-to-metal cations molar ratios and high reducing power of the combustion fuel mixture are mainly responsible for the decreasing of the area-specific resistance o…

Predictive Toxicology of Cobalt Nanoparticles and Ions: Comparative In Vitro Study of Different Cellular Models Using Methods of Knowledge Discovery …

2011

The toxicological effects of cobalt nanoparticles (Co-NPs) aggregates were examined and compared with those of cobalt ions (Co-ions) using six different cell lines representing lung, liver, kidney, intestine, and the immune system. Dose-response curves were studied in the concentration range of 0.05-1.0 mM, employing 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-Yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide test, neutral red, and Alamar blue as end point assays following exposures for 48 and 72 h. Data analysis and predictive modeling of the obtained data sets were executed by employing a decision tree model (J48), where training and validation were carried out by an iterative process. It was established, as expected, th…

Ferromagnetic Coupling in “Double-Bridged” Dihydrogenpyrophosphate Complexes of Cobalt(II) and Nickel(II)

2015

Three isostructural compounds of the formula {[M(bipy)(H2O)(H2P2O7)]2·2H2O} [bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine; M = Ni (1), Co (2), Mn (3)] have been isolated from aqueous solutions containing the corresponding metal(II) chloride hydrate with a bipy and sodium pyrophosphate solution in a 1:1:2 molar ratio, and their structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structures of 1-3 consist of neutral aqua(2,2'-bipyridine)metal(II) dinuclear units bridged by two dihydrogenpyrophosphate groups adopting a bidentate/monodentate mode. Each metal ion in 1-3 is six-coordinate in a distorted octahedral geometry, with the reduced value of the angle subtended by the chelating bipy at the meta…

Designing binuclear transition metal complexes: a new example of the versatility of N,N′-bis(2-aminobenzyl)-4,13-diaza-18-crown-6

2005

[Abstract] N,N′-Bis(2-aminobenzyl)-4,13-diaza-18-crown-6 (L) is a versatile receptor able to adapt to the coordinative preferences of different metal cation guests. With first-row transition metal ions, L tends to form binuclear complexes but, depending on the nature of the particular metal ion, the structure of the binuclear complex may be very different. Herein we report a study of the structure and magnetic properties of the corresponding nickel(II) and cobalt(II) complexes. The X-ray crystal structure of the nickel complex (1), with formula [Ni2(L)(CH3CN)4](ClO4)4·CH3CN, shows that this compound presents a symmetric coordination environment with L adopting an anti arrangement. Each Ni(I…

Bis(4-aminopyridinium) tetrachloridocobaltate(II)

2009

In the title compound, (C(5)H(7)N(2))(2)[CoCl(4)], the cobalt(II) ion is coordinated by four chloride ions in a slightly distorted tetra-hedral geometry. The crystal packing is stabilized by inter-molecular N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding, forming a three-dimensional network. The crystal was a non-merohedral twin emulating tetra-gonal symmetry, but being in fact ortho-rhom-bic.

Single-Ion Magnetic Behavior in CoII-CoIII Mixed-Valence Dinuclear and Pseudodinuclear Complexes

2017

Two CoII–CoIII mixed-valence complexes of molecularformulas [Co2(H2L)2(H2O)2][Co2(H2L)2(H2O)(m-phth)]·8(H2O) {1;H2L2–= 2-[(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)amino]-2-(hydroxymethyl)propane-1,3-diolato, m-phth = 1,3-benzene-dicarboxylate} and [Co4(H2L)4(H2O)2(ppda)]·2(dmf)·3.2(H2O) {2;ppda = 1,4-phenylenediacrylate; dmf = N,N-dimethyl-formamide} were synthesized and characterized by single-crys-tal X-ray diffraction and magnetic studies at low temperature.The structural determination reveals that 1 is composed of di-nuclear ion pairs, namely, a cationic [Co2(H2L)2(H2O)2]+(1+) andan anionic [Co2(H2L)2(H2O)(m-phth)]–(1–) unit. In each of these ions, the CoIIand CoIIIcenters present distorted octa…
