Quinone studies. Part III. Metal ion-catalysed oxidation of halophenols and halonaphthols by peroxidisulphate

Oxidation of representative halophenols and halonaphthols by peroxidisulphate has been examined. The influence of metallic ions, viz. Cu2+, Fe3+, Ag+, on the above reaction has been studied. Cu2+ ion-catalyzed oxidation gives halo-1, 4-quinones in excellent yield. Potassium bis(biureto)cuprate(III) complex also oxidises halophenols to halo-1, 4-quinones.

Improved efficiency by doping blue iridium (III) complex in europium complex-based light-emitting diodes

We demonstrated high-efficiency red organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) employing a europium complex, Eu (III) tris( thenoyltrifluoroacetone) 3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (Eu(TTA)(3)(Tmphen)), as an emitter and a blue electrophosphorescent complex, Iridium ( III) bis[4,6-di-fluorophenyl-pyridinato-N,C-2] picolinate (FIrpic), as an assistant dopant codoped into 4,4-N, N-dicarbazole-biphenyl (CBP) host as an emissive layer. A pure red electroluminescence (EL) only from Eu3+ ions at 612 nm with a full width at half maximum of 3 nm was observed and the EL efficiency was significantly enhanced. The maximum EL efficiency reached 7.9 cd A(-1) at 0.01 mA cm(-2) current density, which is enhanced by 2.8 times compared with electrophosphorescence-undoped devices. The large improvements are attributed to energy transfer assistance effects of FIrpic, indicating a promising method for obtaining efficient red OLEDs based on rare-earth complexes.

Facile synthesis and photoluminescence of europium ion doped LaF3 nanodisks

LaF3 : Eu3+ (5.0 mol-% EU3+) nanodisks with perfect crystallinity were successfully synthesized by a simple method. The synthesis was carried out in an aqueous solution at room temperature without the use of templates or organic additives, The mechanism of formation of the nanodisks was explored, and the fluoride source (KBF4) is believed to play a key role in controlling the morphology of the final product. Furthermore, the size of the disk can be simply moderated by varying the concentration of the initial reactants. The room-temperature photoluminescence of LaF3 : Eu3+ with different morphologies and sizes were also investigated, and the results indicate that the emission intensity of the product is strongly affected by their size, shape, and other factors.

A novel terbium (III) beta-diketonate complex as thin film for optical device application

A novel terbium complex, Tb(acac)(3)AAP (acac: acetylacetone, AAP: 4-amino-antipyrine), was synthesized and its luminescent properties were studied. When it was used as an emitting center, triple-layer-type device with a structure of glass substrate/ITO (indium-tin oxide)/TPD (N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine)./Tb(acac)(3)AAP/PBD (2-(4-biphenyl)-5-(4-t-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole) or Alq(3) (tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato) aluminum)/Al (aluminum) exhibited bright characteristic emission of terbium ion upon applying d.c. voltage. The maximum luminance of the device is 56 cd/m(2) at 19 V and the maximum luminance efficiency is 0.357 lm/W.

Europium ion labeling anti-HBs

A microsecond time-resolved laser fluorescence spectroscopic analysis set was developed, A chelate-cyclic anhydride of diethylenetrimin pentaacetic acid anhydride (DTPAA) was synthesized. An anti-HBs antibody was purified, A EU3+ -DTPAA-anti-HBs label was prepared by two step procedure. We described the optimal condtion with EU3+ as marker and DTPAA as chelate bounding to antibody molecule. Labeling parameters such as solvent pH, protein and chelate molar ratio, reaction time, separation method were discussed in detail.

DYNAMIC PROCESS OF VALENCE CHANGE OF EUROPIUM ION IN EUROPIUM DIFLUORIDE AT HIGH-TEMPERATURE

The dynamic process of the ionic valence changing from Eu~(2+) to Eu~(3+) in EuF_2 at high temperature has been investigated by ESCA, high,temperature X-ray diffraction, high temperature spectrum, high temperature magnetic Isusceptibility and Mssbauer spectrum. It has been shown that the formed Eu~(3+) exists in different compounds when EuF_2 is heated to high temperature in different atmospheres. In air, Eu~(3+) exists in the form of hexagonal EuOF, in nitrogen, in the form of orthogonal EuF_3 and non-hexa...

Caracterização e modificação de heteroestruturas de nitretos do grupo III

Os nitretos binários semicondutores do grupo III, e respetivos compostos, são vastamente estudados devido à sua possível aplicabilidade em dispositivos optoeletrónicos, tais como díodos emissores de luz (LEDs) e LASERs, assim como dispositivos para a eletrónica de elevadas temperatura, potência e frequência. Enquanto se concretizou a comercialização na última década de LEDs e LASERs recorrendo ao ternário In1-yGayN, estudos das propriedades fundamentais estruturais e óticas, assim como de técnicas de processamento no desenvolvimento de novas aplicações de outros ternários do grupo III-N encontram-se na sua fase inicial. Esta tese apresenta a investigação experimental de filmes finos epitaxiais de Al1-xInxN crescidos sobre camadas tampão de GaN e de Al1-yGayN e o estudo do recozimento e implantação de super-redes (SL) compostas por pontos quânticos de GaN (QD) envolvidos por camadas de AlN. Apesar do hiato energético do Al1-xInxN poder variar entre os 0,7 eV e os 6,2 eV e, por isso, numa gama, consideravelmente superior à dos ternários Al1-yGayN e InyGa1-yN, o primeiro é o menos estudado devido a dificuldades no crescimento de filmes com elevada qualidade cristalina. É efetuada, nesta tese, uma caracterização estrutural e composicional de filmes finos de Al1-xInxN crescidos sobre camadas tampão de GaN e de Al1-yGayN usando técnicas de raios-X, feixe de iões e de microscopia. Mostra-se que o Al1-xInxN pode ser crescido com elevada qualidade cristalina quando a epitaxia do crescimento se aproxima da condição de rede combinada do Al1-xInxN e da camada tampão (GaN ou Al1-yGayN), isto é, com conteúdo de InN de ~18%, quando crescido sobre uma camada de GaN. Quando o conteúdo de InN é inferior/superior à condição de rede combinada, fenómenos de relaxação de tensão e deterioração do cristal tais como o aumento da rugosidade de superfície prejudicam a qualidade cristalina do filme de Al1-xInxN. Observou-se que a qualidade dos filmes de Al1-xInxN depende fortemente da qualidade cristalina da camada tampão e, em particular, da sua morfologia e densidade de deslocações. Verificou-se que, dentro da exatidão experimental, os parâmetros de rede do ternário seguem a lei empírica de Vegard, ou seja, variam linearmente com o conteúdo de InN. Contudo, em algumas amostras, a composição determinada via espetrometria de retrodispersão de Rutherford e difração e raios-X mostra valores discrepantes. Esta discrepância pode ser atribuída a defeitos ou impurezas capazes de alterar os parâmetros de rede do ternário. No que diz respeito às SL dos QD e camadas de AlN, estudos de recozimento mostraram elevada estabilidade térmica dos QD de GaN quando estes se encontram inseridos numa matriz de AlN. Por implantação iónica, incorporou-se európio nestas estruturas e, promoveu-se a ativação ótica dos iões de Eu3+ através de tratamentos térmicos. Foram investigados os efeitos da intermistura e da relaxação da tensão ocorridos durante o recozimento e implantação nas propriedades estruturais e óticas. Verificou-se que para fluências elevadas os defeitos gerados por implantação são de difícil remoção. Contudo, a implantação com baixa fluência de Eu, seguida de tratamento térmico, promove uma elevada eficiência e estabilidade térmica da emissão vermelha do ião lantanídeo incorporado nos QD de GaN. Estes resultados são, particularmente relevantes, pois, na região espetral indicada, a eficiência quântica dos LEDs convencionais de InGaN é baixa.

Determination of the nature of the diperiodatocuprate(III) species in aqueous alkaline medium through a kinetic and mechanistic study on the oxidation of iodide ion

The nature of the diperiodatocuprate(III) (DPC) species present in aqueous alkaline medium has been investigated by a kinetic and mechanistic study on the oxidation of iodide by DPC. The reaction kinetics were studied over the 1.0 ´ 10)3±0.1 mol dm)3 alkali range. The reaction order with respect to DPC, as well as iodide, was found to be unity when [DPC] [I)]. In the 1.0 ´ 10)3±1.0 ´ 10)2 mol dm)3 alkali region, the rate decreased with increase in the alkali concentration and a plot of the pseudo-®rst order rate constant, k versus 1/[OH)] was linear. Above 5.0 ´ 10)2 mol dm)3, a plot of k versus [OH)] was also linear with a non-zero intercept. An increase in ionic strength of the reaction mixtures showed no e ect on k at low alkali concentrations, whereas at high concentrations an increase in ionic strength leads to an increase in k. A plot of 1/k versus [periodate] was linear with an intercept in both alkali ranges. Iodine was found to accelerate the reaction at the three di erent alkali concentrations employed. The observed results indicated the following equilibria for DPC.
