چکیده

The presence of Cs+ ions in the pseudo-1D nanopores of zeolite ITQ-4, Si32O64, is confirmed by x-ray diffraction and atomic pair distribution function analysis. Inside the nanopores the Cs+ ions are found to assemble in zigzag chains and thus form an extended, positively charged sublattice providing charge balance for a low-density electron gas also confined to the nanopores.

Structure of Nanocrystalline Materials by the Atomic Pair Distribution Function Technique

The approach of the atomic pair distribution function (PDF) technique to study the structure of nanocrystalline materials is considered and successfully applied to V2O5.nH2O xerogel and Cs intercalated inside the pores of the zeolite ITQ-4. We find that V2O5.nH2O is an assembly of almost perfect bi-layers of VO5 units encapsulating the water molecules. Inside the nanopores of ITQ-4 the cesium i...
