The asymmetric unit of the title complex, [SbPc]I (Pc = C32H16N8), consists of an [SbPc]+ cation and an I− anion. A combination of ionic and acceptor–donor interactions links the [SbPc]I moieties to form pseudo dimers in the unit cell. The pseudo dimers are linked through I⋯H—Cbenzole hydrogen-bonded interactions to f…

Observation has been made of a photonic enhancement effect during optical rapid thermal annealing (RTA) of high dose, As implants in Si. Arsenic implant activation using optical radiation heating from tungsten–halogen lamps, λpeak=0.8 μm, was compared with annealing in a continuously heated rapid thermal vertical furn…

Perylenetetracarboxydiimide (PEDI) molecularly dispersed in polyamic acid (PAA) and polyimide (PI) films has unique fluorescence properties. An originally strong fluorescence of PEDI is efficiently quenched in the PAA films. The systematic variation of the chain structure of the PAA matrices revealed that the aromatic…

The relaxation behavior of four amorphous poly(aryl ether ketone)s was investigated using dielectric relaxation spectroscopy and dynamic mechanical analysis. The temperature dependence of the relaxation times of the glass transition process and the cooperative nature of this process were unaffected by changes in polym…

The pressure–volume–temperature (PVT) properties of three commercial samples of poly(dimethylsiloxane) are studied experimentally and theoretically in the temperature range 25–150°C and for pressure to ∼ 3 kbar. The Tait equation is employed to represent the data at elevated pressure. Isothermal compressibilities are…

Laser selective excitation, excited state absorption, two-photon absorption, and fluorescence line narrowing techniques have been used to investigate the electronic energy level structure of the Cm3+ ion diluted in the host crystal Cs2NaYCl6. In this crystal the Cm3+ ion replaces a Y3+ ion at an octahedral site (Oh sy…

We report on magnetic measurements and electronic structure investigations of the alloyed compounds Zr-Ni-Sn and Ti-Ni-Sn. Both belong to the group of semi-Heusler alloys, and are classified as narrow-gap semiconductors with indirect gaps near 500 meV. Tetravalent ions (Zr,Ti) are partly replaced by Ce, with a Ce conc…

The effects of the inclusion of manganese in small ZnS nanocrystals are investigated. Our calculation is based on a tight-binding model with renormalized parameters similar to those of the defect-molecule approach for substitutional transition-metal ions in semiconductors. The nanocrystals of Mn-doped ZnS were 1.1--3.…

Peroxide induced crosslinking and degradation of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) were experimentally investigated using an on-line electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy technique. The reaction variables included temperature, peroxide type and concentration. A single line ESR spectrum was observed with its peak-to-peak w…

Transport data for paratoluene sulfonate dope polypyrrole films in the insulating regime and near the metal-insulator (M-I) boundary are presented and analyzed. Samples in the insulating region show a crossover from Mott to Efros–Shklovskii variable range hopping conduction at T=5 K and magnetoconductance of these sam…

The doping of the chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-diamond $(100):\mathrm{H}(2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}1)$ surface with B and N has been studied using the density-functional tight-binding method. In agreement with recent experimental results, B doping is found to lower the abstraction energies and remove diffu…

We study the depletion interaction between spherical particles of radius R immersed in a dilute solution of rigid rods of length L . The computed interaction potential is, within numerical accuracy, exact for any value of L / R . In particular we find that for L ∼ R , the depth of the depletion well is smaller than th…
