Article Abstract

The 71Pig Rydberg state of Na2 correlating with the separated atom limit Na(3s) + Na(5p) has been observed using high-resolution cw optical-optical double resonance spectroscopy. A total of 104 identified rovibrational levels in the range v = 0-12 and 11

Quasielastic and Inelastic Neutron Scattering Study of Ultraconfined Water in Natural Mordenite ((Ca,Na,K)AlSiO·7HO).

Mordenite ((Ca,Na,K)AlSiO·7HO) is a natural and synthetic nanoporous zeolite containing several channels of different sizes in its structure. Because of this, its structure provides an important opportunity to study the relationship between confined and ultraconfined water as these channels have sizes between those typical of these water environments. In this study, the properties of water molecules in these environments were analyzed using inelastic and quasielastic neutron spectroscopy of a natural mordenite.

Understanding the Existence of a Na Dimer in a High-Spin State.

The recent observation of a high-spin Na dimer formed on the surface of liquid helium nanodroplets raises some fundamental questions, as the ground state of Na is known to have zero spin. Is it protected against spontaneous dissociation? What is its binding energy and interatomic distance? Is it stable at a higher temperature? Using calculations based on density functional theory (with and without long-range interaction) and coupled cluster methods, CCSD(T), we show that the bonding in the high-spin Na dimer is governed by van der Waals interaction with binding energy (bond length) varying between -0.030 eV (5.

NaSnGeO is a novel Na conductor that can be utilized in the next generation of all-solid-state Na batteries (ASSNIBs). Na ssNMR experiments were carried out on the NaSnGeO phase to investigate the Na dynamics for the three unique crystallographic Na sites under multiple field strengths (20, 11.7, and 7 T).

We report a general synthetic method to access iron-carbide(carbonyl) clusters ligated by thiolate. We previously established that multiple neutral ligand substitution (phosphine) was enabled by utilizing the conventional six-iron carbide cluster [Fe(μ-C)(μ-CO)(CO)] and generating the 2 e oxidized, polyhedral skeletal electron pair theory (PSEPT) non-compliant cluster [Fe(μ-C)(μ-CO)(CO)]. However, ligation of thiolate proved intractable this route due to inherent thiolate-cluster redox processes, resulting simply in reformation of the dianionic cluster.

Dual-Phase Engineered Iron-Based Polyanion Cathodes for Fast and Durable Sodium-Ion Batteries.

Iron-based polyanion material NaFe(SO) has gained attention for sodium-ion batteries due to its excellent electrochemical performance and low cost. However, NaFe(SO) suffers from residual FeSO formation during synthesis, which limits its capacity and rate performance. Herein, we introduce a dual-phase engineering strategy by incorporating NaF during synthesis that effectively eliminates FeSO residues and enables the formation of a dual-phase composite: NaFe(SO) (primary phase) and NaFe(SO)F (secondary phase).
