Doping of organic light-emitting devices using highly luminescent molecules is a well-established strategy to improve brightness, efficiency and lifetime or to adjust emission color and color purity. Laser dyes from the pyran-containing donor-acceptor fami ...
Upon treatment with Lewis bases Do (Do = pyridine bases or THF), the Lewis acids tmp2AlX (X = Cl, Br, I) are converted exclusively to the monoadducts tmp2AlX.Do. Crystal and mol. structure of these monoadducts were detd. The Al-X bonds of these addn. compd ...
The evolution of the argon metastable states density has been studied by absorption spectroscopy in power-modulated plasmas of argon and a mixture of 4% silane in argon. A small concentration of silane suppresses the argon metastable states density by mole ...
Raman spectra of Mg2GeO4-olivine were obtained from ambient pressure up to 34 GPa at ambient temperature. Under quasi-hydrostatic pressure conditions, the following modifications in the Raman spectra occur as pressure increases: 1) near 11 GPa, two sharp e ...
A simple, rapid, and inexpensive heating-wire technique is used for physical observations at high temperatures. The upper limit is 2000 K in air with platinum-iridium or platinum-rhodium wires and 2700 K with iridium; temperatures up to 3600 K can be achie ...
We discuss the phase behaviour of spherical hard-core particles, with an attractive potential, as described by a hard-core Yukawa model. The ratio of the range of the attraction to the diameter of the particles is an important control parameter of the prob ...
When silicon thin films are deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition in a plasma regime close to that of the formation of powder, a new type of material, called polymorphous silicon (pm-Si), is obtained. We present here the optoelectronic an ...
The structural and thermodynamical properties of GaxIn1-xP solid solutions are studied using Monte Carlo simulations based on density-functional perturbation theory. The free-standing alloy displays a model random behavior, with a miscibility gap below app ...
Modern lasers now routinely allow experiments where large populations of highly excited molecules can be prepared with perfect quantum state selection. In a sense, the laser has become the physical chemist’s synthetic tool, allowing “optical distillation” ...
High-temperature Raman spectroscopy and optical microscopic observations have revealed a new metastable polymorph of CaAl2Si2O8 composition, which brings to four the number of known crystalline phases in this system. Similar to the metastable monoclinic ps ...
