We propose a method to simulate a-Si and a-Si:H using an ab initio approach based on the Harris functional and thermally amorphisized periodically continued cells with at least 64 atoms, and calculate their radial distribution functions. Hydrogen incorporation was achieved via diffusive random addition. The electronic…

High-quality crystalline Si0.75Ge0.25 alloy crystals were implanted with 70 keV Er+ ions at 550 °C to a fluence of 1019 m−2. In situ Rutherford backscattering/channeling spectrometry with a 500 keV He2+ beam revealed Er atoms located on regular lattice sites of the host matrix. Angular scans taken around the 〈100〉, 〈1…

In Konzentrationen bis hinab zu 0.3 Gew.-% bildet eine neuartige Familie von Bisharnstoffdicarbonsäuren ein Hydrogel (siehe Bild). Der Aggregationszustand (Vesikel, Gel oder Faser) hängt ab vom pH-Wert, von der Ionenstärke und vom Molekulargewicht des Gelbildners. Somit lassen sich die Eigenschaften des Gels durch Des…

An investigation was carried out on thin permanent phase polarization gratings recorded in Langmuir–Blodgett films using two orthogonal circularly polarized Ar-ion laser beams. The films are composed of amphiphilic azo-dye molecules and manifest an extremely large value of photoinduced optical anisotropy, Δn≈0.36. The…

Diffusion barrier characteristics and electrical properties of self-aligned MgO layers obtained from a Cu(Mg) alloy film have been investigated. Self-aligned surface and interfacial MgO layers were formed upon annealing a Cu(Mg) film in an oxygen ambient and prevented interdiffusion of Cu in SiO2 up to 700 °C. The the…

Two tetradentate bispinene-bipyridine type ligands, each with six stereogenic carbon centers, were synthesized from (-)-alpha-pinene. Their ability to predetermine chiral configurations at metal centers was studied. The two diastereoisomers, L1 and L2, differ in their absolute configuration at the bridgehead position.…

A crossover as a function of temperature is found in the zero-field aging properties of the relaxor ferroelectric Pb(Mg(1/3)Nb(2/3))O3. Below a temperature near which nonlinear susceptibility has indicated a suspected phase transition, the time-frequency dependence shows simple scale-independent behavior resembling th…

Tetradentate Janus heads L−: Staples for the construction of square tetranuclear clusters of the type [M4L8] 1 (M=Ni, Zn; see picture). The [2×2] grids 1 are generated in a one-pot reaction by self-assembly. The magnetic susceptibility of the nickel complex [Ni4L8] Ni-1 exhibits an increase of χT at low temperature du…

Hochverzweigte und maßgeschneiderte Carbosilane wie 1 dienen als Trägermaterial für Diaminoaryl-PdII-Katalysatoren. Die hochverzweigten Katalysatoren weisen ein ähnliches katalytisches Verhalten auf wie die einkernigen Stammverbindungen und bieten eine echte Alternative zu den aufwändig herzustellenden Dendrimer-Katal…

The dependence of sonoluminescence on ambient pressure and temperature is measured. As water is cooled, there occurs a 100-fold increase in light emission which can be accompanied by only slight changes in the ambient radius of the pulsating bubble. This suggests that water vapor trapped in the collapsing bubble is a…

Hyperbranched carbosilane compounds such as 1 are conveniently prepared, soluble supports for diaminoaryl PdII catalysts. The hyperbranched catalyst shows similar activity behavior to its parent mononuclear catalyst and provides a competitive alternative to the corresponding but more tediously produced dendrimer catal…

Nanosized metal-oxide-based composites—novel supramolecular entities—have been assembled and even cross-linked under one-pot conditions. The supramolecular entity (see picture) consists of a paramagnetic icosahedral capsule of the type {MoFe} as a host which encloses a potential electron-reservoir noncovalently bonded…

Photo- and radioluminescence, decay kinetics, and thermoluminescence are reported for a set of Ce3+-doped phosphate glasses. The presence of Gd3+ ions in the glass host matrix at concentrations above 20% enhances the energy transfer towards the Ce3+ emission centers, which results in a remarkable enhancement of the ra…

We report on the observation of stimulated emission in ZnO/MgxZn1−xO superlattices well above room temperature. Two kinds of superlattices grown by laser molecular-beam epitaxy showed clear systematics on the quantum subband levels in absorption and spontaneous emission spectra. Stimulated emission with excitonic orig…

A red phosphor, Li-doped Gd2O3:Eu3+ with high cathodoluminescent brightness was developed. In contrast to Gd2O3:Eu3+ which showed an irregular shape of agglomerated fine particles (the mean particle size <0.5 μm), the morphology of Li doped Gd2O3:Eu3+ crystals was quite regular and pseudospherical (the mean par…
