These linear molecular structures can be well described with a one-dimensional conduction model, which considers the scattering processes of electrons through the charge transfer conduction bridge of the H[C≡C]n-molecular wire containing the CN group as an electron-acceptor terminal unit. Therefore, our results using this model enable a better understanding of the longest molecules observed in interstellar space and provide new insight into why these particular cyanopolyynes reach a maximum length, such as is observed from astronomical experimental spectral data and cosmological chemical models. Dipole moments and geometrical parameters of these cyanopolyynes were obtained from ab initio molecular orbital calculations using the restricted Hartree-Fock approach and 6-311G* basis set, in order to obtain the inner resistance as a new parameter of chemical reaction feasibility for this molecular series. Using this last molecular parameter, we have been able to analyze the possibility of identifying long molecular species that can be found under local thermodynamic equilibrium in some ISM such us HC25H, HC27H, and HC29N, which have not been observed at present.展开更多

Here, a series of new polymers pyridine substitute poly (phen- ylene ethynylene)s are synthesized by Sonogashira-Hagihara coupling reaction. The impact of structure modification on the physical properties and spectral characteristics of poly-mers has been investigated. The quenching studies are car-ried out and exhibit that recognition site (pyridyle group) highly influences the quenching efficiency. The results show that polymer PI with pyridyl group entrapped in the conju-gated backbone has the specific and sensitive response to Pd(Ⅱ). The fluorescence quenching of PⅠby Pd(Ⅱ) is about 65 times greater than that of model monomer.展开更多

The molecular electronic structure and the interaction between the molecule and the gold surface are two key factors for the charge transport properties of molecular wires in the formulas. An ab initio calculation at the hybrid density functional theory level is carried out to obtain the electronic structure of 4-4′-dimercaptodibenzene molecule. The frontier orbit theory and the perturbation theory are employed to determine the constant of the interaction energy between molecule and surface quantitatively. The numerical results show that the bonding between the sulfur atom and the gold atoms corresponds mainly to the covalent bond. Some molecular orbits are extended over molecule and gold cluster that certainly give channels for the charge transport, other molecular orbits are localized and the charge transport can take place by tunnel mechanism. At zero bias region, there exists a current gap. With the increasing bias, the conductance of the wire takes a shape of plateaus.展开更多

It was found that electrostatic interaction between the quaternary ammonium groups of PPV-1 and the carboxylate moieties in dendrons induced the packing of dendrons along PPV-1 conjugated backbones. Absorption and emission spectroscopic examinations in solution and solid film indicated that the PPV-1 backbones adopted a more planar and isolated conformation in the complexes. Furthermore, interchain interactions in the complexes could be greatly reduced, improving the quantum yield of PPV-1.展开更多

Cu(100) single crystal was used as substrate in fabricating molecular nanostructures. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) experiments confirmed that Zn-tetra- [3,5-di-t-butylphenyl]porphyrin-molecules can be used to fabricate both monolayer and molecular wire on Cu(100) surface simultaneously, and the latter is arranged on the terrace edges. We herein briefly discuss the selectivity in terms of a mechanism in which the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO) of the molecules interact with the surface.展开更多

The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results show that with increasing the InAs deposited thickness, the size uniformity and spatial ordering of InAs QWR SLS was greatly improved, but threading dislocations initiated from InAs nanowires for the sample with 6 monolayers (MLs) InAs deposition. In addition, the zig-zag features along the extending direc- tion and lateral interlink of InAs nanowires were also observed. The InAs nanowires, especially for the first period, were laterally compact. These structural features may result in easy tunneling and coupling of charge carders between InAs nanowires and will hamper their device applications to some extent. Some suggestions are put forward for further improving the uniformity of the stacked InAs QWRs, and for suppressing the formation of the threading dislocations in InAs QWR SLS.展开更多
