Principal moments of some of the polyatomic single crystals such as ammonium dichromate, ammonium chromate, potassium chromate and potassium permanganate have been determined from room temperature down to liquid air temperature. These have been found to decrease with the decrease of temperature. This variation is smaller in magnitude. It has been observed that the temperature coefficient of the principal moments has almost the same value over the entire range of temperature. This small variation of paramagnetism has been attributed to the variation of absorption frequency in solid state.

AbstractWe have measured the resistivity and thermopower of single crystals as well as polycrystalline pressed powders of the low-dimensional pentatelluride materials: HfTe5 and ZrTe5. We have performed these measurements as a function of temperature between 5K and 320K. In the single crystals there is a peak in the resistivity for both materials at a peak temperature, Tp where Tp ≈ 80K for HfTe5 and Tp ≈ 145K for ZrTe5. Both materials exhibit a large p-type thermopower around room temperature which undergoes a change to n-type below the peak. This data is similar to behavior observed previously in these materials. We have also synthesized pressed powders of polycrystalline pentatelluride materials, HfTe5 and ZrTe5. We have measured the resistivity and thermopower of these polycrystalline materials as a function of temperature between 5K and 320K. For the polycrystalline material, the room temperature thermopower for each of these materials is relatively high, +95 μV/K and +65 μV/K for HfTe5 and ZrTe5 respectively. These values compare closely to thermopower values for single crystals of these materials. At 77 K, the thermopower is +55 μV/K for HfTe5 and +35 μV/K for ZrTe5. In fact, the thermopower for the polycrystals decreases monotonically with temperature to T ≈ 5K, thus exhibiting p-type behavior over the entire range of temperature. As expected, the resistivity for the polycrystals is higher than the single crystal material, with values of 430 mΩ-cm and 24 mΩ-cm for Hfre5 and ZrTe5 respectively, compared to single crystal values of 0.35 mΩ-cm (HfTe5) and 1.0 mΩ-cm (ZrTe5). We have found that the peak in the resistivity evident in both single crystal materials is absent in these polycrystalline materials. We will discuss these materials in relation to their potential as candidates for thermoelectric applications.

Multifunctional Properties

Although a plethora of metal complexes have been characterized, those having multifunctional properties are very rare. This article reports three isotypical complexes, namely [Cu(benzoate)L 2], where L = 4-styrylpyridine (4spy) (1), 2′-fluoro-4-styrylpyridine (2F-4spy) (2) and 3′-fluoro-4-styrylpyridine (3F-4spy) (3), which show photosalient behavior (photoinduced crystal mobility) while they undergo [2+2] cycloaddition. These crystals also exhibit anisotropic thermal expansion when heated from room temperature to 200°C. The overall thermal expansion of the crystals is impressive, with the largest volumetric thermal expansion coefficients for 1, 2 and 3 of 241.8, 233.1 and 285.7 × 10−6 K−1, respectively, values that are comparable to only a handful of other reported materials known to undergo colossal thermal expansion. As a result of the expansion, their single crystals occasionally move by rolling. Altogether, these materials exhibit unusual and hitherto untapped solid-state properties.

The unsymmetrical (mixed-ligand) nickel 1,2-dithiolene complexes Ni(pddt)(dmio) and Ni(pddt)(dmit) (where pddt is 6,7-dihydro-5H-1,4-dithiepin-2,3-dithiolate, dmio is 1,3-dithiol-2-one- 4,5-dithiolate, and dmit is 1,3-dithiol-2-thione-4,5-dithiolate) were synthesized and characterized. The new complexes were found to be soluble in organic solvents, from which single crystals and/or thin deposits can be obtained. In the solid state, the compounds behave as single-component semiconductors with low room temperature conductivity values

IntroductionThere have been several t.e.m. studies (1,2,3,4) of the dislocation arrangements in the matrix and around the particles in dispersion strengthened single crystals deformed in single slip. Good agreement has been obtained in general between the observed structures and the various theories for the flow stress and work hardening of this class of alloy. There has been though some difficulty in obtaining an accurate picture of these arrangements in the case when the obstacles are large (of the order of several 1000's Å). This is due to both the physical loss of dislocations from the thin foil in its preparation and to rearrangement of the structure on unloading and standing at room temperature under the influence of the very high localised stresses in the vicinity of the particles (2,3).This contribution presents part of a study of the Cu-Cr-SiO2 system where age hardening from the Cu-Cr and dispersion strengthening from Cu-Sio2 is combined.

Standard Orientation

In f.c.c. metals slip is observed to occur generally on {111} planes. Glide dislocations on intersecting {111} planes can react with each other and form Lomer-Cottrell locks which lie along a <110> direction and are sessile since they are split on two {111} planes. Cottrell already pointed out that these dislocations could glide on {001} planes if they were not split. The first study of this phenomenon has been published recently. It is the purpose of this paper to report some interesting new details of the dislocations gliding on {001} planes in pure Ni, Cu, and Ag deformed at room temperature.Single crystals are grown with standard orientation and strained into stage II. The crystals are sliced parallel to the (001) planes. The dislocation structure is studied by TEM and the Burgers vectors ḇ and glide planes of the dislocations are determined unambiguously.In Fig.l primary P and secondary S dislocations react and form composite dislocations K.

AbstractPhotoresistant laser dyes were trapped in silica based xerogel host matrices to obtain solid state tunable lasers. For this purpose very dense xerogel samples with improved chemical and physical properties were prepared at room temperature by the sol-gel technology. The as-prepared materials were polished to obtain optical quality surfaces and were used as new lasing media.Lasing action of such different dyes as rhodamine, perylene and pyrromethene doping dense sol-gel matrices was demonstrated. Efficiencies of 30 % or lifetimes of more than 100,000 shots were achieved with different new ≤dye dopant/host matrix≥ couples. Their different performances are reviewed and discussed.

Glucose Pentaacetate

<p></p>Anomerization of glycosides were rarely performed under basic condition due to lack of efficiency. Here an imidazole promoted anomerization of β-D-glucose pentaacetate was developed; and reaction could proceed in both organic solvents and solid state at room temperature. Although mechanism is not yet clear, this unprecedent mild anomerization in solid state may open a new promising way for stereoseletive anomerization of broad glucosides and materials design in the future..

Optically transparent single crystals of potassium acid phthalate (KAP, 0.5 g) 0.05 g and 0.1 g (1 and 2 mol %) trytophan were grown in aqueous solution by slow evaporation technique at room temperature. Single crystal X- ray diffraction analysis confirmed the changes in the lattice parameters of the doped crystals. The presence of functional groups in the crystal lattice has been determined qualitatively by FTIR analysis. Optical absorption studies revealed that the doped crystals possess very low absorption in the entire visible region. The dielectric constant has been studied as a function of frequency for the doped crystals. The thermal stability was evaluated by TG-DSC analysis.
