Abstract The ultraviolet absorption spectra of uracil and its 5-halogenated derivatives have been in ­ vestigated in regard to the electron attracting properties of the substituents. It could be shown that the position of the two absorption bands is proportional to the inverse of the electronegativity; the extinction coefficients are a linear function of the electron affinities. In this way, the red shift obtained upon substitution with halogens can be explained. Also, the decrease in absorbance of the absorption bands at λ > 250 nm, occuring concomitant­ ly, is understandable. The increase in absorbance with increasing electron affinity, as observed in the case of the absorption bands at λ < 250 nm, might question the assumption that this band is due to a higher pi -pi* excitation

The title compounds (natural low-dimensional semiconductors) show strong excitonic optical absorption bands in the UV-visible spectral region, because of the dielectric confinement of excitons. as in the cases of other similar systems based on PbX2-4, SnX2-4.

Achieving outstanding physical and optical properties of borosulfophosphate glasses via controlled doping of rare earth ions is the key issue in the fabrication of new and highly-efficient glass material for diverse optical applications. Thus, the effect of replacing P2O5 by Dy2O3 on the physical and optical properties of Dy[Formula: see text]-doped lithium-borosulfophosphate glasses with chemical composition of 15Li2O–30B2O3–15SO3–[Formula: see text]P2O5–[Formula: see text]Dy2O3 (where 0.0 mol.% [Formula: see text] mol.%) has been investigated. The glass samples were synthesized from high-purity raw materials via convectional melt-quenching technique and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX), density and UV–vis–NIR absorption measurements. The amorphous nature of the prepared glass samples was confirmed by XRD patterns whereas the EDX spectrum depicts elemental traces of O, C, B, S, P and Dy. The physical parameters such as density, refractive index, molar volume, polaron radius and field strength were found to vary nonlinearly with increasing Dy2O3 concentration. UV–vis–NIR absorption spectra revealed seven absorption bands with most dominant peak at 1269 nm (6H[Formula: see text]F[Formula: see text]H[Formula: see text]). From the optical absorption spectra, the optical bandgap and Urbach’s energy have been determined and are related with the structural changes occurring in these glasses with increase in Dy2O3 content. Meanwhile, the bonding parameters ([Formula: see text]) evaluated from the optical absorption spectra were found to be ionic in nature. The superior features exhibited by the current glasses nominate them as potential candidate for nonlinear optical applications.

Abstract The preparation, crystal structures and optical absorption spectra of [H3N(CH2)6NH3]BiX5 (X= I, Cl) and [H3N(CH2)6NH3]SbX5 (X =I, Br) are reported. The anions of the compounds consist of MX6-octahedra (M =Bi, Sb) sharing cisvertices in one-dimensional zig-zag chains. Because of their one-dimensional character, a blue shift of the excitonic absorption bands, in com parison to those of higher dim ensionality systems (MX3), is observed.

The absorption spectra of the ferric ion and its first hydrolysis product in an aqueous solution of perchloric acid was determined. The Fe3+ ion has two absorption bands, one with a maximum at 240 mμ and another which extends into the region below 200 mμ. The FeOH2+ ion also has two absorption bands, the maxima of which occur at 300 mμ and 205 mμ. A figure shows the magnitude of the absorption of each of these ions from 200 to 350 mμ.

The fundamental properties of the absorption spectra of KBr:Pb2+ crystals have been studied at various temperatures from the liquid helium range to room temperature. The observed absorption bands are assigned to the so-called A, B, C, and D' bands by analogy with the absorption bands of other s2-configuration ions in alkali halide crystals. The B, C, and D′ bands overlap but have been resolved into their components by nonlinear least squares analysis. A discussion is given of the energy separation between the B and C bands in Sn2+-, Tl+-, and Pb2+-doped alkali halide crystals.

The ultraviolet absorption bands associated with the following groups have been investigated in a variety of compounds of known structure:[Formula: see text]The groups may be characterized by the ultraviolet spectrum, and the number of each type of group present in a given compound may be estimated from an analysis of the shape and intensity of the absorption spectrum. These correlations have been applied to the elucidation of the structure of new compounds isolated in the course of the investigation of the chemistry of 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazacyclohexane (RDX).

The ultraviolet spectra of the acridone alkaloids and some derivatives have been studied. The various bands in the spectra of these compounds are interpreted by starting with theoretical treatments of the spectrum of anthracene and tracing spectral changes through acridine and phenazine to acridone. An interesting relation between the π-electron density of a given position in the acridone ring and the shift in wavelength of absorption bands due to an alkoxyl derivative is noted and the spectra of the alkaloids are shown to comply with this relationship. Compounds containing a 4-hydroxy-10-methylacridone structure are found to have unusual spectra and a possible explanation of this is proposed.

The white powders used as precursor powders for the synthesis of 12CaO×7Al2O3 electride (C12A7:e-) were prepared by biosynthesis method using Aloe vera extract and microwave assisted synthesis. The C12A7:e- crystals were synthesized by induction heating process under a reducing atmosphere at different times of 3, 4 and 5 min. The structure of C12A7:e- powders was characterized by X-ray diffraction. The XRD analysis revealed that pure C12A7:e- powders were obtained from white precursor powders with an induction heating process time of 5 min. To confirm that the white precursor powders were transformed into C12A7:e- after induction heating process for 3, 4 and 5 min, the optical absorption spectra of powders were investigated by an UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectrometer in the wavelength range of 200 – 800 nm. The results show the optical absorption bands at 2.8 eV for the white precursor powders with induction heating time of 3, 4 and 5 min. This is due to the C12A7 was transformed into electride (C12A7:e-). Therefore, the results on the optical absorption spectra are in good agreement with the XRD results.
