The Blue–Violet Color of Pentamethylbismuth: A Visible Spin‐Orbit Effect
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two-component relativistic time-dependent density functional theory calculations with spin-orbit coupling predict yellow and orange-red absorption for BiPh5 and BiMe5, respectively, providing an excellent explanation for their respective violet and blue-violet colors. According to the calculations, the visible absorption is clearly attributable to a single transition from a ligand-based HOMO to a low-energy LUMO with a significant contribution from a relativistically stabilized Bi 6s orbital. Surprisingly, scalar releativistic calculations completely fail to reproduce the observed visible absorption and place it at the violet/near-UV borderline instead.

Optical characteristics and mineral chemistry of colored fluorites from the mines of Mazandaran Province, and causes of their coloration
In order to understand the cause of coloration of fluorites, following experiments (UV-spectroscopy, irradiation by gamma ray and thermal bleaching) carried out on the colored and colorless fluorites from the mines of Mazandaran Province. All colored and colorless fluorites have absorption band in UV part of electromagnetic waves but deep-violet and brown fluorites have an absorption band in vi...
متن کاملQuantum Interference Control of Ballistic Magneto- resistance in a Magnetic Nanowire Containing Two Atomic- Size Domain Walls
The magnetoresistance of a one-dimensional electron gas in a metallic ferromagnetic nanowire containing two atomic-size domain walls has been investigated in the presence of spin-orbit interaction. The magnetoresistance is calculated in the ballistic regime, within the Landauer-Büttiker formalism. It has been demonstrated that the conductance of a magnetic nanowire with double domain walls...
