Crystal field splitting of some rare earth intermetallic compounds with Cu3Au structure

1980

Inelastic neutron scattering studies were performed in the paramagnetic phases of several rare earth compounds that crystallize in the cubic Cu3Au structure: ErPb3, ErTl3, ErIn3, HoPb3, HoTl3, HoIn3, PrSn3, PrPb3, PrTl3, PrIn3, CeIn3, La1−c Pr c Tl3, and Pr(In0.5Tl0.5)3. The energies, widths and intensities of the crystal field excitations are determined and discussed in terms of interactions between the rare earth ions. Variations of the crystal field parameters are observed across the series.

Crystal Electric Fields in Rare-Earth Al2 Compounds

1977

Neutron time-of-flight measurements have been performed on REAl2 compounds (RE = Pr, Ho, Er, Tm) in the paramagnetic region. Resolved crystal field transitions are observed in ErAl2 and TmAl2. We deduce crystal field parameters (x = 0.16, W = -0.030 meV) and (x = -0.28, W = +0.040 meV) for ErAl2 and TmAl2 respectively.

Grazing-Incidence X-ray Diffraction Study of Octadecanoic Acid Monolayers

1998

We report the observation of X-ray scattering profiles from monolayers of octadecanoic acid in the vicinity of room temperature and evidence for the existence near room temperature of all four hexatic rotator phases L2d, Ov, L‘1, and LS, which differ in the details of their molecular tilt. While the incontrovertible triple-reflection signature of the chiral L‘1 phase was not observed, we propose that the previously reported rapid annealing behavior in this phase can lead to the disappearance of one, and in some cases two, of the three peaks.

Microscopic investigations of homogeneous nucleation in charged sphere suspensions.

2005

We studied the homogeneous nucleation kinetics of an aqueous suspension of charged colloidal spheres under de-ionized conditions. Samples of equilibrium crystalline structure were shear molten and the metastable melt left to solidify after cessation of shear. At low particle number densities n, corresponding to low metastability of the melt, nucleation was monitored directly via video microscopy. We determined the nucleation rates gamma(t) by counting the number of newly appearing crystals in the observation volume per unit time. Using a suitable discrete adaptation of Avrami's [J. Chem. Phys. 7, 1003 (1939); ibid.8, 212 (1940); ibid.9, 177 (1941)] model for solidification via homogeneous n…

Crystal structure and magnetism of the double perovskites A2FeReO6 (A=Ca, Sr, Ba)

2004

Abstract We synthesized a series of double perovskites A 2 FeReO 6 (A=Ca, Sr, Ba) with Curie temperatures above room-temperature. Neutron and X-ray diffraction analysis have been performed in order to determine the structural and (local) magnetic properties of these materials. While Ba 2 FeReO 6 stays cubic over the whole temperature range we examined, the Sr-compound shows a tetragonal distortion of the perovskite structure which does not completely vanish up to about 520 K far above T C . Ca 2 FeReO 6 has a monoclinic unit cell at high temperatures. Below 400 K a phase separation in two monoclinic phases with identical cell volume is observed in neutron scattering.

Fabrication of quercetin and curcumin bionanovesicles for the prevention and rapid regeneration of full-thickness skin defects on mice

2013

In the present work biocompatible quercetin and curcumin nanovesicles were developed as a novel approach to prevent and restore skin tissue defects on chronic cutaneous pathologies. Stable and suitable quercetin- and curcumin-loaded phospholipid vesicles, namely liposomes and penetration enhancer-containing vesicles (PEVs), were prepared. Vesicles were made from a highly biocompatible mixture of phospholipids and alternatively a natural polyphenol, quercetin or curcumin. Liposomes were obtained by adding water, while PEVs by adding polyethylene glycol 400 and Oramix®CG110 to the water phase. Transmission electron microscopy, cryogenic-transmission electron microscopy and small- and wide-ang…

Nanowire iron(III) coordination polymer based on 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine and chloride ligands

2019

Abstract The neutral ligand 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (tp) has been employed to prepare a new coordination compound of Fe(III), [FeCl3(tp)2]n (1). Compound 1 was investigated by single crystal X-ray diffraction and found to be a coordination polymer forming a ladder structure based on metal–ligand interactions, while H-bonding and aromatic interactions contribute to the supramolecular self-assembly into a 3D nanostructured material. The polymeric assembly is retained also in solution, where a metallo-supramolecular polymer based on coordinative metal–ligand binding is present, as shown by dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements. The redox properties of the Fe(III) coordination pol…
