Filled skutterudite structure of europium ruthenium polyphosphide, EuRu4P12
نویسندگان
چکیده
The crystal structure of EuRu(4)P(12) is isotypic with filled skutterudite structures of rare earth transition metal poly-phosphides: RFe(4)P(12) (R = Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm and Eu), RRu(4)P(12) (R = La, Ce, Pr and Nd) and ROs(4)P(12) (R = La, Ce, Pr and Nd). The Ru cation is coordinated by six P anions in a distorted octa-hedral manner. The partially occupied Eu position (site occupancy 0.97) is enclosed by a cage formed by the corner-shared framework of the eight RuP(6) octa-hedra.

Defect-enhanced void filling and novel filled phases of open-structure skutterudites.
We report the design of novel filled CoSb3 skutterudite phases based on a combination of filling and Sb-substituted Ga/In defects. Ga/In doped skutterudite phases with Li-, Nd-, and Sm-fillings can be formed via this strategy, which can have relatively wider ranges of carrier concentration than other conventional filled skutterudite phases.
متن کاملRigid 5'-6-locked phenanthroline-derived nucleosides chelated to ruthenium and europium ions.
We describe complexes of ruthenium and europium with rigid, 5'-6-locked 1,10-phenanthroline-containing nucleosides. Both nucleosides were synthesized from condensation of 5-amino-2'-deoxycytidine with the corresponding diketone. The ruthenium nucleoside displayed fluorescence characteristic of polypyridine ruthenium complexes with a maximum at 616 nm and a quantum yield of 0.011. Binding of eur...
متن کاملSuperconductivity in the platinum germanides MPt4Ge12 (M = rare-earth or alkaline-earth metal) with filled skutterudite structure.
New germanium-platinum compounds with the filled-skutterudite crystal structure were synthesized. The crystal structure and composition were investigated by x-ray diffraction and microprobe analysis. Magnetic susceptibility, specific heat, and electrical resistivity measurements evidence superconductivity in LaPt4Ge12 and PrPt4Ge12 below 8.3 K. The parameters of the normal and superconducting s...
