Recently we reported on the synthesis and characterization of a series of very weakly coordinating anions (WCA's) of type Al(OR)4- (R=poly or perfluorinated aliph. alkoxide). These anions produce "Pseudo Gas Phase Conditions" in the solid state that allo ...
Previous measurements of SixHm- anions and electrons in the afterglow of silane discharges are analyzed here. A model of plasma anion chemistry includes two sources of anions, two possible causes of x-->x+1 anion growth, and anion loss by mutual neutraliza ...
Reactions of X2 (X = Br, I), P4 and Ag(CH2Cl2)[Al(OR)4] [R = C(CF3)3] in suitable ratios to prep. naked polyphosphorus cations were carried out and led to products which suggested these elusive cations as intermediates. At temps. >-30 Deg to rt the initial ...
A reactor concept designed as a bubble column staged with fibrous catalytic layers is tested on pilot-scale for the redn. of nitrite to N by H. CO2 is used to neutralize the hydroxide ions produced during hydrogenation of nitrite. The effective reaction ra ...
The reaction of the aminophosphane C6H4(o-CN)NHPPh2 with elemental potassium in the presence of 18-crown-6 affords the phosphinoamide-containing complex [C6H4(o-CN)N-PPh2(THF)(18-Crown-6)K] which has been fully characterised in solution and the solid state ...
L'émergence de procédés de gravure profonde performants (vitesse, anisotropie, uniformité…) de matériaux tels que le silicium (Si), la silice (SiO2) et certains polymères repose sur: • Le développement d'équipement de gravure permettant le contrôle indépen ...
In a molecular semiconductor, a charged molecule experiences a lattice relaxation which reorganizes it into a cation or an anion-radical. This species is not, in general, a polaron. By using calculations of the geometry and the electronic structure both ab ...
The present invention relates to a method and a device for irradiating ions in a ion cyclotron resonance (ICR) trap with photons and/or electrons. For electron irradn. a hollow electron emitter is used, through the hole of which a light beam can be sent in ...
The kinetic energy dependence of ions trapped in a radiofrequency (RF) hexapole ion trap was calcd. as a function of space charge, mean free path, mass, RF potential and charge. The av. kinetic energy of the ions increases with increasing space charge, mea ...
We propose a new mechanism for the electroreduction of hydrogen in acidic media. The specific model and theoretical calculations are designed for the Pt(111) surface, because this is the only face that exhibits a clear first order phase transition. The bas ...
