Relaxation dynamics in (HF)x(H2O)1-x solutions.

چکیده
The high-frequency dynamics of (HF)(x)(H(2)O)(1-x) solutions has been investigated by inelastic x-ray scattering. The measurements have been performed as a function of the concentration in the range x = 0.20-0.73 at fixed temperature T = 283 K. The results have been compared with similar data in pure water (x = 0) and pure hydrogen fluoride (x = 1). A viscoelastic analysis of the data highlights the presence of a relaxation process characterized by a relaxation time and a strength directly related to the presence of a hydrogen-bond network in the system. The comparison with the data on water and hydrogen fluoride shows that the structural relaxation time continuously decreases at increasing concentration of hydrogen fluoride passing from the value for water to the one for hydrogen fluoride tau(alphaHF), which is three times smaller. This is the consequence of a gradual decreasing number of constraints of the hydrogen-bond networks in passing from one liquid to the other.

Fabrication of p-Type Nano-porous Silicon Prepared by Electrochemical Etching Technique in HF-Ethanol and HF-Ethanol-H2O Solutions
Nano-porous silicon were simply prepared from p-type single crystalline silicon wafer by electrochemical etching technique via exerting constant current density in two different HF-Ethanol and HF-Ethanol-H2O solutions. The mesoporous silicon layers were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The results demonstrate that the width of nano-p...
متن کاملFirst-principles phase diagram calculations for the rocksalt-structure quasibinary systems TiN-ZrN, TiN-HfN and ZrN-HfN.
We have studied the phase equilibria of three ceramic quasibinary systems Ti1-x Zr x N, Ti1-x Hf x N and Zr1-x Hf x N (0 ⩽ x ⩽ 1) with density functional theory, cluster expansion and Monte Carlo simulations. We predict consolute temperatures (T C), at which miscibility gaps close, for Ti1-x Zr x N to be 1400 K, for Ti1-x Hf x N to be 700 K, and below 200 K for Zr1-x Hf x N. The asymmetry o...
متن کاملSpin-dynamics of the spin-correlated radical pair in photosystem I. Pulsed time-resolved EPR at high magnetic field.
Spin-dynamics of the spin-correlated radical pair (SCRP) P(700)(+)A(1A)(-) in the photosystem I (PSI) reaction center protein have been investigated with high-frequency (HF), time-resolved EPR spectroscopy. The superior spectral resolution of HF EPR enables spin-dynamics for both the donor and acceptor radicals in the pair to be monitored independently. Decay constants of each spin were measure...
متن کاملSemiempirical investigations on the stabilization energies and ionic hydrogen - bonded structures of F − ( H 2 O ) n and Cl − ( H 2 O ) n ( n = 1 – 4 ) clusters
Several semiempirical methods were utilized to analyze the structures and stabilities of X(H2O)n (X = F, Cl; n = 1–4) clusters with respect to the number of water molecules through their comparison with ab initio molecular orbital calculations. Our results show that the recently developed PM6-DH+ semiempirical method can provide reasonable binding energies of hydrated fluoride and chloride ion ...
متن کاملPositively charged GdIII cryptates: slow, associative water exchange.
A combined variable-temperature and multiple field 17O NMR, EPR and NMRD study has been performed for the first time on gadolinium(III) complexes of cryptand ligands, L1 and L2, where L1 contains three 2,2'-bipyridine units ([bpy.bpy.bpy]) and L2 is the disubstituted methyl ester derivative of L1. The experimental data have been analysed in a simultaneous fit in order to determine parameters fo...
