Mass/charge balance as a tool to estimate dimensional change in polypyrrole-based actuators
2006
The deconvolution of the voltammograms of polypyrrole electrochemistry has proved to be possible through the electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance data using the F(dm/dQ) function. This deconvolution allows the evolution of the thickness of the polypyrrole films during their redox processes to be estimated and therefore, the mechanical contraction/decontraction of this polymer as a function of the ionic exchange processes can be evaluated.

Bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid/bis(2-ethylhexyl)amine mixtures as solvent media for lithium-ions: A dynamical study
2016
Abstract The self-diffusion coefficient, the spin-lattice relaxation times and ionic conductivity of lithium ions in liquid mixtures composed of bis(2-ethylhexyl)amine (BEEA) and bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (HDEHP) have been thoroughly investigated as a function of composition and temperature by NMR spectroscopy and conductometry. While the temperature and composition dependence of diffusion coefficients of lithium ions follow the same trend observed for those of the surfactant molecules, the spin-lattice relaxation times of lithium ions and 1 H are remarkably different. The observed behavior has been interpreted in terms of lithium ions diffusion occurring through its association with…
From classical to operatorial models
2023
Mathematical models for the collective dynamics of interacting and spatially distributed populations find applications in several contexts (biology, ecology, social sciences). Their formulation depends primarily on the (continuous or discrete) description of the space. Reaction-diffusion equations have been widely used in bioecology (morphogenesis, migration of biological species, tumor growth, neuro-degenerative diseases) and in the social sciences (diffusion of opinions or decisionmaking processes), and exhibit complex behaviors (propagation of oscillatory phenomena, pattern formation caused by instability). A reaction–diffusion system exhibits diffusion-driven instability, sometimes call…

2013
The bis(mu-phenoxo) (FeNiIII)-Ni-II compound [Fe-III(N-3)(2)LNiII(H2O)(CH3CN)](ClO4) (1) and the bis(mu-phenoxo)-mu-acetate/bis(mu-phenoxo)-bis(mu-acetate) (FeNiII)-Ni-III compound {[Fe-III(OAc)LNiII(H2O)(mu-OAc)](0.6)center dot[(FeLNiII)-L-III(mu-OAc)(2)](0.4)}(ClO4)center dot 1.1H(2)O (2) have been synthesized from the Robson type tetraiminodiphenol macrocyclic ligand H2L, which is the [2 + 2] condensation product of 4-methyl-2,6-diformylphenol and 2,2'-dimethy1-1,3-diaminopropane. Single-crystal X-ray structures of both compounds have been determined. The cationic part of the dinuclear compound 2 is a cocrystal of the two species [Fe-III(OAc)LNiII(H2O)(mu-OAc)](+) (2A) and [(FeLNiII)-L-I…
Double Interpenetration in a Chiral Three-Dimensional Magnet with a (10,3)-a Structure
2015
A unique chiral three-dimensional magnet with an overall racemic double-interpenetrated (10,3)-a structure of the formula [(S)-(1-PhEt)Me3N]4[Mn4Cu6(Et2pma)12](DMSO)3]·3DMSO·5H2O (1; Et2pma = N-2,6-diethylphenyloxamate) has been synthesized by the self-assembly of a mononuclear copper(II) complex acting as a metalloligand toward Mn(II) ions in the presence of a chiral cationic auxiliary, constituting the first oxamato-based chiral coordination polymer exhibiting long-range magnetic ordering.
An Na8 Cluster in the Structure of a Novel oxamato-bridged Na'Cu'' three-Dimensional Coordination Polymer
1999
[EN] The new heterometallic sodium(I)¿copper(II) compound Na4Cu2 (2) · 10.5 H2O (3), where H8[2] stands for N,N',N'',N'''-methanetetrayltetrakismethylenetetrakis(oxamic acid), has been synthesized and its crystal structure determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structure of 3 consists of cationic [Cu2(¿4:¿4-2)]4- dinuclear units, coordinated sodium cations, and water molecules. In the crystal, the dinuclear copper entities are joined through discrete aggregates of eight sodium atoms linked by oxamato and water bridges, leading to a three-dimensional polymeric network.
Crystal structure of the coordination polymer [FeIII2{PtII(CN)4}3]
2015
[EN] The title complex, poly[dodeca--cyanido-diiron(III)triplatinum(II)], [FeIII2{PtII(CN)4}3], has a three-dimensional polymeric structure. It is built-up from square-planar [PtII(CN)4] 2 anions (point group symmetry 2/m) bridging cationic [FeIIIPtII(CN)4] + 1 layers extending in the bc plane. The FeII atoms of the layers are located on inversion centres and exhibit an octahedral coordination sphere defined by six N atoms of cyanide ligands, while the PtII atoms are located on twofold rotation axes and are surrounded by four C atoms of the cyanide ligands in a square-planar coordination. The geometrical preferences of the two cations for octahedral and square-planar coordination, respectiv…
Frequency-dependent response and dynamic disorder
1991
Abstract This paper discusses selected aspects of the application of dynamic percolation models to ionic transport in mixed-ion superionic conductors. The discussion is based on an AB lattice gas model with hard-core repulsions and a ratio of τ, 0 ⩽ τ ⩽ ∞, between the transition rates of particles A and B. The frequency-dependent conductivity for a tracer particle is calculated within an effective-medium theory. The motion of the background B-particles is regarded as providing a fluctuating disordered environment for the tracer particles A. A crossover frequency separating high-frequency and low-frequency response is found which scales with τ as ω c ∼ τ 1 2 . The results for the dc limit ar…
<title>Electronic excitations and defects in fluoroperovskite LiBaF<formula><inf><roman>3</roman></inf></formu…
2003
A survey of the present situation with respect to knowledge of lattice defects, electronic excitations, such as excitons and localized excitons, as well as energy storage and transfer phenomena in LiBaF3 crystals is given. Both phenomenological models and experimental interpretations of optical absorption bands, tentatively associated with F-type (electron) centers created by X-ray or electron irradiation, is reviewed. Interpretation of three radiative processes (super-fast core-valence transitions, slow trapped exciton luminescence and luminescence of structure defects) observed in undoped LiBaF3 crystals is analyzed with respect to practical application. Attention is paid to the behavior …
Metallophilic interactions in polymeric group 11 thiols
2016
Three polymeric group 11 transition metal polymers featuring metallophilic interactions were obtained directly via self-assembly of metal ions and 4-pyridinethiol ligands. In the cationic [Cu2(S-pyH)4]n2+ with [ZnCl4]n2− counterion (1) and in the neutral [Ag(S-py) (S-pyH)]n (2) 4-pyridinethiol (S-pyH) and its deprotonated form (S-py) are coordinated through the sulfur atom. Both ligands are acting as bridging ligands linking the metal centers together. In the solid state, the gold(I) polymer [Au(S-pyH)2]Cl (3) consists of the repeating cationic [Au(S-pyH)2]+ units held together by aurophilic interactions. Compound 1 is a zig-zag chain, whereas the metal chains in the structures of 2 and 3 a…
