Singly ionized double-donor complex in vertically coupled quantum dots.

Nanoscale Res Lett

Group of Investigation in Condensed Matter Theory, Universidad del Magdalena, Santa Marta, Colombia.

Published: August 2012

The electronic states of a singly ionized on-axis double-donor complex (D2+) confined in two identical vertically coupled, axially symmetrical quantum dots in a threading magnetic field are calculated. The solutions of the Schrödinger equation are obtained by a variational separation of variables in the adiabatic limit. Numerical results are shown for bonding and antibonding lowest-lying artificial molecule states corresponding to different quantum dot morphologies, dimensions, separation between them, thicknesses of the wetting layers, and magnetic field strength.

Structural, dielectric and magnetic properties of Sb/Cr-doped CaCuTiOquadruple perovskite oxides.

J Phys Condens Matter

January 2025

National Laboratory of Solid State Microstructures, School of Physics, Nanjing University, Nanjing 210093, People's Republic of China.

Driven by the miniaturization of microelectronic devices and their multifunctionalities, the development of new quadruple-perovskite oxides with high dielectric constants and high Curie temperature are highly required. Herein, we report on the structural, dielectric and magnetic properties of Sb/Cr-doped CaCuTiO(CCTO) quadruple perovskite oxides, CaCuTiSbO(CCTSO) and CaCuTiCrO(CCTCO). Structural Rietveld refinements demonstrated that the CCTO, CCTSO, and CCTCO ceramics adopted a cubic crystal structure (3¯ space group).

Laser excitation of the 1-2 transition in singly-ionized helium.

Commun Phys

December 2024

LaserLaB, Department of Physics and Astronomy, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, De Boelelaan 1081, 1081 HV Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

Laser spectroscopy of atomic hydrogen and hydrogen-like atoms is a powerful tool for tests of fundamental physics. The 1-2 transition of hydrogen in particular is a cornerstone for stringent Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) tests and for an accurate determination of the Rydberg constant. We report laser excitation of the 1-2 transition in singly-ionized helium (He), a hydrogen-like ion with much higher sensitivity to QED than hydrogen itself.

Background: Analysis of the phytocannabinoids holds significant importance because of their various pharmacological properties and potential therapeutic applications. Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) coupled with electrospray ionization in positive ion mode is employed in this study to describe the collision-induced dissociation (CID) behavior of a series of common phytocannabinoids with the aim of establishing a generalized MS/MS fingerprint.

Materials And Methods: Eight phytocannabinoids, namely, ∆-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol (CBD), cannabichromene (CBC), cannabigerol (CBG), tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), 11-hydroxy-Δ-tetrahydrocannabinol (11-OH-THC), 6-hydroxy-cannabidiol (6-OH-CBD), and 7-hydroxy-cannabidiol (7-OH-CBD), were studied.

In this study, we systematically explored the stability and isomerism of neutral and dehydrogenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in various charge states, focusing on anthracene, acridine, and phenazine. Our findings highlight key aspects that deepen the understanding of these molecules' reactivity and stability, relevant in both laboratory and astrophysical contexts. Structural symmetry and the presence of nitrogen atoms significantly impact PAH stability and reactivity.

-Carbazolyl π-Radical and Its Antiaromatic Nitrenium Ion: A Threshold Photoelectron Spectroscopic Study.

Laboratory for Synchrotron Radiation and Femtochemistry, Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI), Villigen CH-5232, Switzerland.

Understanding the structure and properties of heterocyclic radicals and their cations is crucial for elucidating reaction mechanisms as they serve as versatile synthetic intermediates. In this work, the -carbazolyl radical was generated via pyrolysis and characterized using photoion mass-selected threshold photoelectron spectroscopy coupled with tunable vacuum-ultraviolet synchrotron radiation. The -centered radical is classified as a π-radical (B), with the unpaired electron found to be delocalized over the central five-membered ring of the carbazole.
