Clusters with closed electronic shells are highly stable, and this is a robust property with far-reaching implications for cluster abundance, cluster shapes, dynamical response to electric fields and cluster dissociation. Clusters with closed shells are also good candidates for the synthesis of novel materials. The de…

An accurate structural study on the β-phase of LiNaSO 4 was carried out. This study shows that twin crystals are usually obtained when crystallization takes place from solution, which explains the observed low spontaneous polarization. Raman scattering of Li 2 SO 4 , Na 2 SO 4 and LiNaSO 4 is explained from the struct…

The picosecond dynamics of molten alkali halides is discussed, and the low-frequency Raman spectra of molten LiCl, CsCl, and the LiCl–CsCl eutectic are fitted to the model enabling to obtain the times of vibrational dephasing, τV and vibrational frequency modulation τω. In terms of the Wilmshurst criterion [J. Chem. P…

The room temperature excitation spectrum of luminescence of Cr 3+ in the YAl 3 (BO 3 ) 4 single crystal have been used to estimate the crystal-field strength Dq and the Racah parameters B and C . The Dq / B = 2.4 value indicates that dopant ions occupy strong-crystal-field sites. Emission spectra of Cr 3+ are consiste…

We report room-temperature Raman scattering results on perovskite-type [(La 0.7 Sr 0.3 MnO 3 ) m /(SrTiO 3 ) n ] 15 multilayers, m and n being the thicknesses of layers alternated 15 times. Distinct changes in the Raman spectra for different n and m have been analysed in the light of structural modifications and point…

High-density amorphous ice (HDA), made by compression of hexagonal ice at 77 K, was heated at a constant pressure of 0.81 GPa up to 195 K and its phase transition followed by displacement-temperature curves. The crystalline phases recovered at 77 K and 1 bar were characterized by X-ray diffraction. Pure D 2 O ice IV a…

The effect of nonmesogenic solute on the nematic-smectic-A (NA) transition is examined within the Landau phenomenological theory. When nonmesogenic solute are added to a mesogenic compound consisting of both nematic and smectic-A phases, the NA transition temperature is depressed and a two phase region is formed due t…

The discovery of a new monoclinic phase in the PbZr 1- x Ti x O 3 (PZT) system in the vicinity of the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB), previously considered as a region where the rhombohedral and tetragonal phases of PZT coexist, was recently reported. Investigations of this new phase were reported using different t…

Abstract Twenty‐nine new photochromic 2,4,7‐substituted fluorene‐9′‐styrylquinolinedihydroindolizines (DHIs) 4a–χ were prepared in 45–75% yield via nucleophilic addition of 4‐styrylquinolines 2a–k to substituted spirocyclopropenes 1a–c . The absorption maxima (λ max ) of the colored betaines 3a–χ were detected by flas…

Thin films of tungsten oxide were deposited onto silicon substrates using reactive rf sputtering. The structure of the films is strongly dependent on the conditions of deposition and post-treatment. Important issues are the influences of oxygen pressure during deposition and of annealing temperature. We used x-ray pho…
