Two novel tetranuclear, star-shaped iron(III) clusters, [Fe(4)(acac)(6)(Br-mp)(2)] and [Fe(III) (4)(acac)(6)(tmp)(2)], are described. Both have S=5 ground states resulting from antiferromagnetic nearest-neighbour superexchange interactions, with J=-8.2 cm(-1) and J=-8.5 cm(-1) for 1 and 2, respectively. Energy barrier…

The lattice dynamics and the effect of pressure on superconducting LiFeAs in both nonmagnetic (NM) and striped antiferromagnetic (SAF) phases are investigated using the plane-wave pseudopotential, density-functional-based method. While the obtained electron-phonon coupling $\ensuremath{\lambda}$ is very small for the…

Abstract We report on the pseudo‐capacitance induced by a nitrogen substituted in the carbon network composite prepared by a simple carbonisation (750 °C) of formaldehyde and melamine in the presence of carbon nanotubes. Nitrogen content in the composites varied from 7.4 to 21.7 wt.%. Such materials have a higher dens…

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK), an attractive matrix for highly loaded parts in terms of temperature and mechanical performance, is applied in many engineering applications. However, its improvement in the mechanical properties by, for example, nanoparticles is sometimes necessary to fulfill actual requirements. In this…

Recent infrared measurements of phonon peaks in gated bilayer graphene reveal two striking signatures of electron-phonon interaction: an asymmetric Fano lineshape and a giant variation in the peak intensity as a function of the applied gate voltage. In this Rapid Communication we provide a unified theoretical framewor…

We investigated the athermal high-pressure behavior of the elastic properties of SrTiO 3 (STO) up to 26 GPa in cubic, tetragonal and orthorhombic phases using the ab initio pseudo-potential method. Our results for the cubic phase are in good agreement with experiment and previous pseudo-potential calculations. There a…

The use of TLS (translation/libration/screw) models to describe anisotropic displacement of atoms within a protein crystal structure has become increasingly common. These models may be used purely as an improved methodology for crystallographic refinement or as the basis for analyzing inter-domain and other large-scal…
