Eight infrared-active phonon modes are identified, which are fitted with the factorized form of the dielectric function. The dielectric property and optical conductivity of the MgAl2O4 crystal are analysed. From TO/LO splitting, the effective Szigeti charges and Born effective charges at different temperatures are calculated for studying the ionicity and the effect of polarization. Based on the relationship between the (LO-TO)1 splitting, which represents the transverse and longitudinal frequencies splitting of the highest energy phonon band in the reflectivity spectrum, and the ionic-covalent parameter, the four main phonon modes are assigned. MgA1204 can be considered as a pure ionic crystal and its optical characters do not change with decreasing temperature, so it may be used as a suitable substrate for high-Tc superconducting thin films.展开更多

The response of intrinsic electronic property of the crystals to the change of hole density in La2-xSrxCuO4 in the vicinity of the magic doping of x= 1/16 (= 0.0625) is studied in detail by magnetic measurements under various fields up to 1 T. It is found that when the superconducting critical temperature (Tc) increases with the oxygen content, there appears also a new subtle electronic state that can be detected from the differential curves of diamagnetic susceptibility dx/dT of the crystal sample. In contrast with the intrinsic state, the new subtle electronic state is very fragile under the magnetic fields. Our results indicate that a moderate change in oxygen doping does not significantly modify the intrinsic electronic state originally existing at the magic doping level.展开更多

The analysis of the spectra behavior of the absorption coefficient in the absorption region revealed indirect transition. The dispersion of the refractive index is discussed in terms of the sin-gle oscillator Wemple-DiDomenico model. The single oscillator energy (E0), the dispersion energy (Ed), the lattice dielectric constant (εL) and the ratio of free charge carrier concentration to the ef-fective mass (N/m*) were estimated. The FTIR spectra were recorded to study the functional groups of the as grown and annealed samples.展开更多

In this way, high-quality overdoped and heavily overdoped Bi2212 single crystals are obtained by controlling the annealing oxygen pressure. We find that, beyond a limit of oxygen pressure that can achieve most heavily overdoped Bi2212 with a Tc N63 K, the annealed Bi2212 begins to decompose. This accounts for the existence of the hole-doping limit and thus the Tc limit in the heavily overdoped region of Bi2212 by the oxygen annealing process. These results provide a reliable way in preparing high-quality overdoped and heavily overdoped Bi2212 crystals that are important for studies of the physical properties, electronic structure and superconductivity mechanism of the cuprate superconductors.展开更多

The as-grown crystal was pale green color, transparent and crack-free. X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), transmission spectrum, dielectric constant and polarization-electric field (P-E) hysteresis loop measurements were performed to characterize the crystal. The XRPD confirmed the as-grown crystal to be Tb2(MoO4)3. The transmission spectrum of the crystal showed that its transmittance in the entire visible and most near-infrared region was more than 70% except for an absorption peak around 486 nm. Obvious dielectric anomaly could be observed at low frequencies with increasing temperature through the dielectric constant measurement and the Curie temperature of Tb2(MoO4)3 crystal was determined to be 162.3℃ The unsaturated P-E hysteresis loops indicated that it was difficult for the ferroelectric domains in Tb2(MoO4)3 crystal to array regularly with repeated switching of the electric field.展开更多

The in- si$u observation results demonstrate that the critical linear size of growing facet exceeding the size that the macrostep generates is significantly anisotropic. The critical linear sizes are around 280 ~m and 620 ~m for {1010} and (T010} planes, respectively. AFM study illustrates that macrostep train with a height of 150 nm^200 nm is one typical morphological feature of the as-grown crystal surface. The riser of each macrostep consists of several straight and parallel sub-steps, indicating the occurrence of step bunching. Additionally, triangular sub-steps with heights of several nanometers on the treads of the macrosteps are found to be another typical feature of surface morphology, which implies a microscopically competitive bunching of sub-steps between various crystallographic orientations.展开更多

文摘We report a reproducible approach in preparing high-quality overdoped Bi2 Sr2 CaCu2 08+δ (Bi2212) single crystals by annealing Bi2212 crystals in high oxygen pressure followed by a fast quenching. In this way, high-quality overdoped and heavily overdoped Bi2212 single crystals are obtained by controlling the annealing oxygen pressure. We find that, beyond a limit of oxygen pressure that can achieve most heavily overdoped Bi2212 with a Tc N63 K, the annealed Bi2212 begins to decompose. This accounts for the existence of the hole-doping limit and thus the Tc limit in the heavily overdoped region of Bi2212 by the oxygen annealing process. These results provide a reliable way in preparing high-quality overdoped and heavily overdoped Bi2212 crystals that are important for studies of the physical properties, electronic structure and superconductivity mechanism of the cuprate superconductors.

The riser of each macrostep consists of several straight and parallel sub-steps, indicating the occurrence of step bunching. Additionally, triangular sub-steps with heights of several nanometers on the treads of the macrosteps are found to be another typical feature of surface morphology, which implies a microscopically competitive bunching of sub-steps between various crystallographic orientations.

文摘The compound (SiCl3)2Fe(CO)4 was synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction. It crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P2 1/n with α = 8.287(2), b = 9.829(2), c = 9.042(2) A, β = 96.19(3)°, V= 732.2(3) A^3, C4Cl6FeO4Si2, Mr = 436.77, Z = 2, Dc = 1.981 g/cm^3, F(000) = 424, μ(MoKα) = 2.282 mm^-1, the final R = 0.048 and wR = 0.164 for 1109 observed reflections (I 〉 2σ(I)). The crystal structure of (SiCl3)2Fe(CO)4 reveals that the Si(l)- Fe-Si(l)^a sequence is linear and perpendicular to the Fe(CO)4 cross-shaped plane.

文摘Reaction of 2-pyridone, copper acetate and terbium(or yttrium) perchlorate in acetone with the mole ratio 6: 2: 1 results in the formation of heteronuclear complex Ln_2Cu_4L_8 (HL)_4 (OH)_2 (ClO_4)_4 (H_20)_(10) 2CH_3COCH_3(Ln = Tb (1), Y (2)). By recrystallizing (1) in CHCl_3 single crystals were obtained and the structure was determined by four-circle diffractometer. Data showed that the crystal is in space group C2/m with a=27. 454(9)A, b=13, 608A, c=30. 556(11)A, β=99. 89(3)°, v=11245. 7(7. 5)A^3. The structure was solved by a combination of Patterson method and Fourier technique. The final R value is 0. 103. In the structure, four copper and two terbium ions are bridged by 2-pyridone anions to form an essentially octahedral Cu_4Tb_2 core. The terbium atoms are each eight-coordinate and the copper atoms are five-coordinate.
文摘The title compound, Cs 2[Mg(CO 3) 2(H 2O) 4], was synthesized by the dropwise addition of an aqueous solution of Mg(NO 3) 2 to a stirred aqueous Cs 2CO 3/CsHCO 3 solution. A colorless needle shaped crystal was formed by slow evaporation. The crystal structure was established on the basis of the single crystal X ray diffraction data. Cs 2[Mg(CO 3) 2(H 2O) 4] crystallized in the orthorhombic space group Pbca (No. 61) with a =0.658 4(1) nm, b =1.257 9(1) nm, c =1.301 3(1) nm, \{ V =1.077 8 nm 3, Z =4, D x=2.971 g·cm -3 , μ =69.20 cm -1 , F (000)=888, T =298 K, final R =0.029 and R w=0.024 for 1 037 observed reflections. The crystal consists of Cs + cations and the complex trans [Mg(CO 3) 2(H 2O) 4] 2- anions with each Mg atom coordinated by the six oxygens of two carbonate groups and four water molecules [ d (Mg_O)=0.203 6(4), 0.207 4(4), 0.213 4(4) nm]. The complex trans [Mg(CO 3) 2(H 2O) 4] 2- anions are arranged in a strongly compressed bcc pattern. A 3D network was formed through the intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The Cs + cations are located in cavities, each being surrounded by nine oxygens of five complex anions with d (Cs_O)=0.306 1-0.348 8 nm. The CO 2- 3 group reveals a lowering of D 3h symmetry due to site and coordination effects, but not any observable deviation from co planarity [ d (C_O)=0.127 2(6), 0.127 5(7) , 0.130 5(6) nm and O_C_O=119.6(5)°, 120.1(5)°, 120.4(5)°].
