Optimizing Millisecond Time Scale Near-Infrared Emission in Polynuclear Chrome(III)–Lanthanide(III) Complexes

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Svetlana Eliseeva, Annina Aebischer, Pierre-Yves Morgantini

This work illustrates a simple approach for optimizing long-lived near-infrared lanthanide-centered luminescence using trivalent chromium chromophores as sensitizers. Reactions of the segmental ligand L2 with stoichiometric amounts of M(CF3SO3)(2) (M = Cr, ...

5f-Element complexes with a p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene bearing phosphinoyl pendant arms: Separation from rare earths and structural studies

Rosario Scopelliti, Jean-Claude Bünzli

Phosphinoylated calixarenes feature high coordination ability toward f elements and a great potentiality toward actinide/rare earth separation. Here, we report three characteristic properties of a tetra-phosphinoylated p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene, B(4)bL(4) ...

Chemistry and structure of core/double-shell nanoscale precipitates in Al-6.5Li-0.07Sc-0.02Yb (at.%)

Christian Monachon

An Al-6.3Li-0.07Sc-0.02Yb (at.%) alloy is subjected to a double-aging treatment to create nanoscale precipitates, which are studied by atom-probe tomography and transmission electron microscopy. After homogenization and quenching, Yb atoms form clusters ex ...

Spatial inhomogeneity in RFeAsO1-xFx (R = Pr, Nd) determined from rare-earth crystal-field excitations

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Chao Wang

We report inelastic neutron-scattering measurements of crystal-field transitions in PrFeAsO, PrFeAsO0.87F0.13, and NdFeAsO0.85F0.15. Doping with fluorine produces additional crystal-field excitations, providing evidence that there are two distinct charge e ...

Rods of Neutron Scattering Intensity in Yb2Ti2O7: Compelling Evidence for Significant Anisotropic Exchange in a Magnetic Pyrochlore Oxide

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow

Paramagnetic correlations in the magnetic material Yb2Ti2O7 have been investigated via neutron scattering, revealing a [111] rod of scattering intensity. Assuming interactions between the Yb3+ ions composed of all symmetry-allowed nearest neighbor exchange ...

Nd-Nickelate Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Cathode Sensitivity to Cr and Si Contamination

Jan Van Herle, Aïcha Hessler-Wyser, Josef Andreas Schuler, Henning Lübbe

The stability of Nd-nickelate, considered as an alternative solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) cathode material, was evaluated in this work on its tolerance towards contaminants. Symmetrical cells with Nd1.95NiO4+δ (NNO) electrodes on gadolinia-doped ceria elect ...

Estimating hybrid choice models with the new version of Biogeme

Michel Bierlaire

Hybrid choice models integrate many types of discrete choice modeling methods, including latent classes and latent variables, in order to capture concepts such as perceptions, attitudes, preferences, and motivatio (Ben-Akiva et al., 2002). Although they pr ...

Synthesis, Structure, and Magnetic Properties of Na3LnMn3O3(AsO4)3 (Ln = La, Sm, and Gd): A New 3d-4f Series Exhibiting One-Dimensional Manganese(III) Oxide Chains Connected via LnO9 Units

Wendy Lee Queen

In attempts to synthesize compds. contg. mixed lanthanide and transition metal oxide magnetic nanostructures, a new 3d-4f arsenate phase, Na3GdMn3O3(AsO4)3, was isolated using high-temp., molten-salt methods. The X-ray single-crystal structure anal. shows ...

2,2’-Bipyrimidine as Efficient Sensitizer of the Solid-State Luminescence of Lanthanide and Uranyl Ions from Visible to Near-Infrared

Jean-Claude Bünzli

Treatment of Ln(NO3)3.nH2O with 1 or 2 equiv 2,2-bipyrimidine (BPM) in dry THF readily afforded the monometallic complexes [Ln(NO3)3(bpm)2] (Ln=Eu, Gd, Dy, Tm) or [Ln(NO3)3(bpm)2]THF (Ln=Eu, Tb, Er, Yb) after recrystallization from MeOH or THF, respectivel ...

Near-Infrared Luminescence of Nine-Coordinate Neodymium Complexes with Benzimidazole-Substituted 8-Hydroxyquinolines

Rosario Scopelliti, Jean-Claude Bünzli, Frédéric Gumy

A new class of benzimidazole-substituted 8-hydroxyquinoline ligands has been prepared that contain a monoanionic tridentate N,N,O-coordinating unit. These ligands form charge-neutral lanthanide complexes of the type [Ln(LR) 3] · nH2O or [Ln2(L2)3] · nH2O ( ...
