High-resolution FTIR spectra analysis of sulfur dioxide isotopologues
2019
In this thesis we considered the spectral properties of the sulfur dioxide. The experimental FTIR spectra of numerous sulfur dioxide isotopologues, 32S16O2, 34S16O2, 32S18O2 and 32S16O18O, were first recorded in the regions of fundamental, «hot», combination and overtone bands. The wide variability of the experimental conditions gave possibility to observe and identify for the first time transitions be¬ longing to the following of ro-vibrational bands: 3v2, 3v2 - v2, 2v2 - v2 bands of 32S16O2; 2v2 - v2 band of 34S16O2; v1 + v2, v2 + v3, v1 + v3, 2v1, 2v3 bands of 32S18O2; v1, v3, 2v1, v1 + v3, 2v3 bands of 32S16O18O. The inverse spectroscopic problems were solved for the studied states with…
Experimental characterization of micromechanical and microphological properties of nickel base alloys strained by the growth of an ovide payer made i…
2011
The loss of the corrosion resistance of the alloy 600, a nickel base alloy, during the oxidation in pressurized water reactor (PWR) has been demonstrated by many studies. It induces the intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC). If the chemical composition and the structure of the growing oxide are well-known, the mechanical influence of the oxide on the alloy has not been fully studied, yet. This study aims at bringing new knowledge of the oxidation impact on the mechanical response of the alloy. A new methodology is introduced for determining the local nanodeformation of the alloy 600 induced either by an oxidation or by a tensile loading. This method is based on nanodots disposed a…
Differentiation between Brain Metastasis and Glioblastoma using MRI and two-dimensional Turbo Spectroscopic Imaging data
2009
In this paper we propose a novel technique to differentiate brain metastases from high-grade gliomas, which represent the most aggressive and common brain lesions. In spite of the significant progresses achieved in the field of MRI in the last decades, the differentiation between these two types of tumors is still a challenge as they show a similar appearance on MRI images, but require a completely different therapeutic treatment. Here, we show that such a differentiation is actually possible and can be obtained by making use of MRI as well as of two-dimensional Turbo Spectroscopic Imaging (2D-TSI) information. Specifically, the proposed technique consists of three steps: we first detect th…
An unprecedented hetero-bimetallic three-dimensional spin crossover coordination polymer based on the tetrahedral [Hg(SeCN)4]2− building block
2019
[EN] Self-assembly of octahedral FeII ions, trans-1,2-bis(4-pyridyl) ethane (bpe) bridging ligands and [Hg(XCN)(4)](2-) (X = S (1), Se (2)) tetrahedral building blocks has afforded a new type of hetero-bimetallic Hg-II-Fe-II spin-crossover (SCO) 3D 6,4-connected coordination polymer (CP) formulated {Fe(bpe)[Hg(XCN)(4)]}(n). For X = S (1), the ligand field is close to the crossing point but 1 remains paramagnetic over all temperatures. In contrast, for X = Se (2) the complex undergoes complete thermal induced SCO behaviour centred at T-1/2 = 107.8 K and complete photoconversion of the low spin state into a metastable high-spin state (LIESST effect) with T-LIESST = 66.7 K. The current results…

Heat under the microscope
2014
[Introduction] Recent advances in computational and spectroscopic tools offer new insights into the nature of thermal conduction at ever-finer length scales and ways to control it. Heat conduction is familiar to us all and yet requires a wide range of physics—statistical mechanics, crystallography, and quantum mechanics among them—to fully explain. At the macroscale, heat conduction can be described as a diffusion process in which energy moves along a temperature gradient. The heat flux dissipated by the gradient depends on a material property, the thermal conductivity, as described by the constitutive relation, Fourier’s law. The heat equation, which is derived from Fourier’s law and the c…
Optical Gradient of the Trapezium-Shaped NaNbO[sub 3] Thin Films Studied by Spectroscopic Ellipsometry
2008
thin films were performed in the photon energy range of 1.24–4.96 eV.Effective values of the complex refractive index and thickness nonuniformity, roughness, and depth profile of the real part of therefractive index were evaluated. An increase of the refractive index with increasing of the sample thickness was observed anddiscussed.© 2008 The Electrochemical Society.

An electrochemically synthesised porous anodic aluminium oxide (pAAO) layer has been analysed by means of spectroscopic ellipsometry. The determined thickness of the formed pAAO layer obtained from spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements and modelling was 322.75 ±
Pt(II) nitrile complexes: New insights on old complexes from a combined experimental and theoretical study
2017
Abstract The spectroscopic characterization of cis - and trans -[PtCl 2 (NCR) 2 ] (R = CH 3 , Ph, CH 2 Ph) was reported in solid state and solution phase. Moreover, the X-ray structures of cis -[PtCl 2 (NCCH 3 ) 2 ], cis - and trans -[PtCl 2 (NCPh) 2 ] were redetermined at low temperature. FT-IR and NMR showed a blue-shift and a slight shielding of the νCN and δ ( 13 C CN ) values, respectively, in a counterintuitive way with respect to the well known improved reactivity towards nucleophiles of nitriles ligands coordinated to platinum(II), when compared to their free forms. These spectroscopic behaviors were also confirmed by theoretical experiments at DFT level. Moreover, DFT approach show…
Synthesis, characterization and thermal degradation of 8-hydroxyquinoline–guanidine–formaldehyde terpolymer
2007
Abstract Terpolymer (8-HQGF) has been synthesized using the monomers 8-hydroxyquinoline, guanidine, formaldehyde in 1:1:2 molar proportions. The structure of 8-HQGF terpolymer has been elucidated on the basis of elemental analysis and various physicochemical techniques, i.e. UV–Visible, FTIR–ATR and 1 H NMR spectroscopy. Detailed thermal degradation study of the new terpolymer has been carried out to ascertain its thermal stability. Thermal degradation curve is discussed which shows two decomposition steps (265–475 °C and 540–715 °C). Sharp–Wentworth and Freeman–Carroll methods have been used to calculate activation energies and thermal stability. The activation energy ( E a ) calculated by…
