Absorptivity of Single-Crystal Yttrium at 4.2 K
نویسندگان
چکیده
Measurements of the absorptivity of single crystals of Y were made between 0.15 and 4.4 eV at 4.2 K. Polarized radiation was used with the electric vector parallel or perpendicular to the c^ axis of the crystal. The observed structures in the absorptivity were interpreted on the basis of band calculations for Sc, Re, and Gd and qualitative agreement was found between the band structures and the observed spectra.

Crystal Structure of Nonaaquayttrium(III) Bromate at 100 K
The structure of the nonaaquayttrium (III) bromate, [Y(H2O)9](BrO3)3, at low temperature (100 K) has been studied by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystallography shows a hexagonal unit cell, space group P63/mmc (No. 194) with Z = 2, a = b = 11.7104(11) Å, c = 6.6259(5) Å and V = 786.90(12) Å3 at 100 K. The hydra...

The temperature dependence of magneto-optical and magneto-photoconductivity measurements were carried out in the range of (200-330) K. A home made optical cryostat was used for the measurements. The measured room temperature value of the energy gap was found to be 2.211 eV. The temperature coefficient of energy gap was found to be -5.48×10-4 eV/K obtained by the optical absorption method and -4...
متن کاملAnisotropic Optical Properties of Heavy-Rare-Earth Single Crystals
The optical absorptivities of oriented single crystals of hcp Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, and Lu were measured at 4.2 K between 0.2 and 4.4 eV. Polarized radiation was used to reveal the optical anisotropy. Systematic movement of structures in the absorptivity and optical conductivity was observed as a result of trends within sp and d bands. Low-energy structures were related to effects of s−f exch...
متن کاملTowards the elucidation of the high oxygen electroreduction activity of PtxY: surface science and electrochemical studies of Y/Pt(111).
We have prepared an yttrium modified Pt(111) single crystal under ultra-high vacuum conditions, simulating a bulk alloy. A Pt overlayer is formed upon annealing the crystal above 800 K. The annealed structure binds CO weaker than Pt(111), with a pronounced peak at 295 K in the temperature programmed desorption of CO. When depositing a large amount of yttrium at 1173 K, a (1.88 × 1.88)R30° struc...

A nickel complex with pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid formulated as [Ni(pydcH)2].3H2O was synthesized and its crystal structure determined with single-crystal X-ray at diffraction temperatures (296 K and 120 K). Pyridine-2,6-dicarboxyli acid deprotonated on one group of COOH and two pydcH- anion is coordinated to Ni(II) atom as a tridentate ligand forming a distorted octahedral environment. Th...
