G2(MP2) Investigation of Alane-[X(CH3)3]- (X = C, Si, and Ge) and Alane-Y(CH3)3 (Y = N, P, and As) Interactions

2001

Alane-[X(CH3)3]- (X = C, Si, and Ge) and alane-Y(CH3)3 (Y = N, P, and As) have been investigated as donor−acceptor complex types at the G2(MP2) level of theory. The results show that the anionic complexes are more stable than the neutral ones. They show also that this stability decreases when going from carbon to germanium for [H3AlX(CH3)3]- complexes and from nitrogen to arsenic for H3AlY(CH3)3 complexes. The interaction diagrams prove that the evolution of complexation energy depends on the coordination mode. In fact, it is a result of two interaction types:  interaction between “a1” symmetry fragment molecular orbital (stabilizing) and interactions between “e” symmetry fragment molecular…

GERMANIUM DICARBIDE: EVIDENCE FOR A T−SHAPED GROUND STATE STRUCTURE

2017

The equilibrium structure of germanium dicarbide GeC2 has been an open question since the late 1950s. Although most high-level quantum calculations predict an L-shaped geometry, a T-shaped or even a linear geometry cannot be ruled out because of the very flat potential energy surface. By recording the rotational spectrum of this dicarbide using sensitive microwave and millimeter techniques, we unambiguously establish that GeC2 adopts a vibrationally averaged T-shaped structure in its ground state. From analysis of 14 isotopologues, a precise r0 structure has been derived, yielding a Ge–C bond length of 1.952(1) A and an apex angle of 38.7(2)°.

‘The Glossary in ms. Cambridge, St John’s College E.17 and Middle English Lexicography’,

2015

The only bilingual item of MS Cambridge, St John’s College, E.17 is a short glossary with French lemmata and English interpretamenta, copied in the upper part of f. 126r. The Middle English entries feature a number of rare words, including a few hapax legomena. In other instances, that of the St John’s glossary is the first occurrence of the word ever attested in Middle English. Hence, the little studied glossary reveals itself to be a treasure-trove for the lexicographer. Moreover, whereas the number of borrowings from French is limited to two words, the glossary contains several loanwords from Old Norse. This feature might help locate the glossary, whose origin, as well as that of the ent…

<title>Spectroscopic investigation of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor for application in medical diagnosis</title>

1998

Native vesicles containing the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) prepared from the electric organ of the ray Torpedo marmorata were used to obtain fluorescence signal sin dependence of different concentrations of the local anesthetics procaine. Nonlinear concentration dependent spectral changes are found using ethidium bromide as a fluorescence marker. Structural changes are found for the proteins including the nAChR in the vesicles during immobilization onto surfaces such as IR transparent germanium (GE) crystal, Ge crystal coated with silver (Ag) cluster to use the SEIRA effect and/or crystals covered with a lipid subphase. A comparison between Ge and Ge coated with Ag (Ge/Ag) clus…

Comparative classical and ab initio Molecular Dynamics study of molten and glassy germanium dioxide

2008

A Molecular Dynamics (MD) study of static and dynamic properties of molten and glassy germanium dioxide is presented. The interactions between the atoms are modelled by the classical pair potential proposed by Oeffner and Elliott (OE) [Oeffner R D and Elliott S R 1998, Phys. Rev. B, 58, 14791]. We compare our results to experiments and previous simulations. In addition, an ab initio method, the so-called Car-Parrinello Molecular Dynamics (CPMD), is applied to check the accuracy of the structural properties, as obtained by the classical MD simulations with the OE potential. As in a similar study for SiO2, the structure predicted by CPMD is only slightly softer than that resulting from the cl…

Thermal conductivity of group-IV Semiconductors from a Kinetic-Collective Model

2014

The thermal conductivity of group-IV semiconductors (silicon, germanium, diamond and grey tin) with several isotopic compositions has been calculated from a kinetic-collective model. From this approach, significantly different to Callaway-like models in its physical interpretation, the thermal conductivity expression accounts for a transition from a kinetic (individual phonon transport) to a collective (hydrodynamic phonon transport) behaviour of the phonon field. Within the model, we confirm the theoretical proportionality between the phonon–phonon relaxation times of the group-IV semiconductors. This proportionality depends on some materials properties and it allows us to predict the ther…

Optical properties of Ge-oxygen defect center embedded in silica films

2007

The photo-luminescence features of Ge-oxygen defect centers in a 100nm thick Ge-doped silica film on a pure silica substrate were investigated by looking at the emission spectra and time decay detected under synchrotron radiation excitation in the 10-300 K temperature range. This center exhibits two luminescence bands centered at 4.3eV and 3.2eV associated with its de-excitation from singlet (S1) and triplet (T1) states, respectively, that are linked by an intersystem crossing process. The comparison with results obtained from a bulk Ge-doped silica sample evidences that the efficiency of the intersystem crossing rate depends on the properties of the matrix embedding the Ge-oxygen defect ce…
