This study reports the simple process to synthesis of CuO/CuI nanocomposite in a non-aqueous solution. In the conducted experiments CuI and Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) were used as the precursors. Moreover, DMSO had role of solvent and ligand simultaneously. In experiments the effects of oleic acid as the particles size modifier, temperature and concentration were investigated. Crystalline struct...

Pure yellow (CuI)P4Se4 was prepared by reaction of stoichiometric amounts of CuI, red P, and gray Se in evacuated silica ampoules. The crystal structure was determined from single crystals at room temperature. (CuI)P4Se4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Cmca with a = 14.770 (1) AÊ , b = 12.029 (1) AÊ , c = 12.449 (1) AÊ , V = 2211.9(6) AÊ , and Z = 8. The structure refinemen...

Elemental sulfur (S8) was found to react with [(TMPA)CuI(CH3CN)]+ to form the trans-mu-1,2 end-on disulfide complex [(TMPA)Cu-S-S-Cu(TMPA)]2+. The X-ray structure of this centrosymmetric disulfide complex shows a Cu(1)-S(1) bond length of 2.280(2) A and a S(1)-S(1A) bond length of 2.044(4) A.

Copper iodide (CuI) thin films were grown on Si(100) substrates using a copper film iodination reaction method. It was found that γ-CuI films have a uniform and dense microstructure with (111)-orientation. Transmission spectra indicated that CuI thin films have an average transmittance of about 60% in the visible range and the optical band gap is 3.01 eV. By checking the effect of the thickness...

The high-pressure polymorphs of CuI have attracted much attention due to the somewhat contradictory identification of their structures by means of x-ray diffraction measurements and theoretical calculations. In this paper, we report the results of a theoretical investigation of polymorphs of CuI including zinc-blende, rhombohedral, tetragonal, rocksalt and orthorhombic phases. We find that CuI...

We investigated the antiviral activity of nanosized copper(I) iodide (CuI) particles having an average size of 160 nm. CuI particles showed aqueous stability and generated hydroxyl radicals, which were probably derived from monovalent copper (Cu(+)). We confirmed that CuI particles showed antiviral activity against an influenza A virus of swine origin (pandemic [H1N1] 2009) by plaque titration ...

Three new coordination polymers based on CuI and 2,3-dimethylpyrazine (2,3-dmpyz) were prepared, structurally characterized and investigated for their thermal and luminescence properties. In the ligand rich 2:3 compound [(CuI)2(2,3-dmpyz)3] (CuI)2 dimers are found, which are connected by the N-donor ligands into chains, whereas in the structure of the 1:1 intermediate [(CuI)(2,3-dmpyz)] (CuI)4 ...
