RESUMO

The vacancy generation dynamics in doped semiconductor heterostructures with quantum dots (QD) formed in the cationic and anionic sublattices of AlAs is studied. We demonstrate experimentally that the vacancy-mediated high temperature diffusion is enhanced (suppressed) in n- and p-doped heterostructures with QDs formed in the cationic sublattice, while the opposite behavior occurs in the heterostructures with QDs formed in the anionic sublattice. A model describing the doping effect on the vacancy generation dynamics is developed. The effect of nonuniform charge carrier spatial distribution arisen in heterostructures at high temperatures on the vacancy generation and diffusion is revealed.

RESUMO

Among cardiovascular diseases, chronic obliterating lesions of the arteries of lower extremities, which are one of the important problems of modern healthcare, are distinguished. In most cases, the cause of damage to the arteries of lower extremities is atherosclerosis. The most severe form is chronic ischemia, characterized by pain at rest and ischemic ulcers, ultimately increasing the risk of limb loss and cardiovascular mortality. Therefore, patients with critical limb ischemia need limb revascularization. Percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty is one of the least invasive and safe approaches, with advantages for patients with comorbidities. However, after this procedure, restenosis is still possible. Early detection of changes in the composition of some molecules as markers of restenosis will help screen patients at the risk of restenosis, as well as find ways to apply efforts for further directions of inhibition of this process. The purpose of this review is to provide the most important and up-to-date information on the mechanisms of restenosis development, as well as possible predictors of their occurrence. The information collected in this publication may be useful in predicting outcomes after surgical treatment and will also find new ways for the target implication to the mechanisms of development of restenosis and atherosclerosis.

RESUMO

Heavy-metal contaminants are one of the most relevant problems of contemporary agriculture. High toxicity and the ability to accumulate in soils and crops pose a serious threat to food security. To solve this problem, it is necessary to accelerate the pace of restoration of disturbed agricultural lands. Bioremediation is an effective treatment for agricultural soil pollution. It relies on the ability of microorganisms to remove pollutants. The purpose of this study is to create a consortium based on microorganisms isolated from technogenic sites for further development in the field of soil restoration in agriculture. In the study, promising strains that can remove heavy metals from experimental media were selected: Pantoea sp., Achromobacter denitrificans, Klebsiella oxytoca, Rhizobium radiobacter, and Pseudomonas fluorescens. On their basis, consortiums were compiled, which were investigated for the ability to remove heavy metals from nutrient media, as well as to produce phytohormones. The most effective was Consortium D, which included Achromobacter denitrificans, Klebsiella oxytoca, and Rhizobium radiobacter in a ratio of 1:1:2, respectively. The ability of this consortium to produce indole-3-acetic acid and indole-3-butyric acid was 18.03 µg/L and 2.02 µg/L, respectively; the absorption capacity for heavy metals from the experimental media was Cd (56.39 mg/L), Hg (58.03 mg/L), As (61.17 mg/L), Pb (91.13 mg/L), and Ni (98.22 mg/L). Consortium D has also been found to be effective in conditions of mixed heavy-metal contamination. Due to the fact that the further use of the consortium will be focused on the soil of agricultural land cleanup, its ability to intensify the process of phytoremediation has been studied. The combined use of Trifolium pratense L. and the developed consortium ensured the removal of about 32% Pb, 15% As, 13% Hg, 31% Ni, and 25% Cd from the soil. Further research will be aimed at developing a biological product to improve the efficiency of remediation of lands withdrawn from agricultural use.

RESUMO

In this work, the formation, structural properties, and energy spectrum of novel self-assembled GaSb/AlP quantum dots (SAQDs) were studied by experimental methods. The growth conditions for the SAQDs' formation by molecular beam epitaxy on both matched GaP and artificial GaP/Si substrates were determined. An almost complete plastic relaxation of the elastic strain in SAQDs was reached. The strain relaxation in the SAQDs on the GaP/Si substrates does not lead to a reduction in the SAQDs luminescence efficiency, while the introduction of dislocations into SAQDs on the GaP substrates induced a strong quenching of SAQDs luminescence. Probably, this difference is caused by the introduction of Lomer 90°-dislocations without uncompensated atomic bonds in GaP/Si-based SAQDs, while threading 60°-dislocations are introduced into GaP-based SAQDs. It was shown that GaP/Si-based SAQDs have an energy spectrum of type II with an indirect bandgap and the ground electronic state belonging to the X-valley of the AlP conduction band. The hole localization energy in these SAQDs was estimated equal to 1.65-1.70 eV. This fact allows us to predict the charge storage time in the SAQDs to be as long as >>10 years, and it makes GaSb/AlP SAQDs promising objects for creating universal memory cells.

RESUMO

The effect of thermally generated equilibrium carrier distribution on the vacancy generation, recombination, and mobility in a semiconductor heterostructure with an undoped quantum well is studied. A different rate of thermally generated equilibrium carriers in layers with different band gaps at annealing temperatures forms a charge-carrier density gradient along a heterostructure. The nonuniform spatial distribution of charged vacancy concentration that appears as a result of strong dependence in the vacancy formation rate on the local charge-carrier density is revealed. A model of vacancy-mediated diffusion at high temperatures typical for post-growth annealing that takes into account this effect and dynamics of nonequilibrium vacancy concentration is developed. The change of atomic diffusivity rate in time that follows on the of spatial vacancy distribution dynamics in a model heterostructure with quantum wells during a high-temperature annealing at fixed temperatures is demonstrated by computational modeling.

RESUMO

The use of low-temperature (LT) GaAs layers as dislocation filters in GaAs/Si heterostructures (HSs) was investigated in this study. The effects of intermediate LT-GaAs layers and of the post-growth and cyclic in situ annealing on the structural properties of GaAs/LT-GaAs/GaAs/Si(001) HSs were studied. It was found that the introduction of LT-GaAs layers, in combination with post-growth cyclic annealing, reduced the threading dislocation density down to 5 × 106 cm-2, the root-mean-square roughness of the GaAs surface down to 1.1 nm, and the concentration of non-radiative recombination centers in the near-surface GaAs/Si regions down to the homoepitaxial GaAs level. Possible reasons for the improvement in the quality of near-surface GaAs layers are discussed. On the one hand, the presence of elastic deformations in the GaAs/LT-GaAs system led to dislocation line bending. On the other hand, gallium vacancies, formed in the LT-GaAs layers, diffused into the overlying GaAs layers and led to an increase in the dislocation glide rate. It was demonstrated that the GaAs/Si HSs obtained with these techniques are suitable for growing high-quality light-emitting HSs with self-assembled quantum dots.

RESUMO

Non-volatile memories based on the flash architecture with self-assembled III-V quantum dots (SAQDs) used as a floating gate are one of the prospective directions for universal memories. The central goal of this field is the search for a novel SAQD with hole localization energy (Eloc) sufficient for a long charge storage (10 years). In the present work, the hole states' energy spectrum in novel InGaSb/AlP SAQDs was analyzed theoretically with a focus on its possible application in non-volatile memories. Material intermixing and formation of strained SAQDs from a GaxAl1-xSbyP1-y, InxAl1-xSbyP1-y or an InxGa1-xSbyP1-y alloy were taken into account. Critical sizes of SAQDs, with respect to the introduction of misfit dislocation as a function of alloy composition, were estimated using the force-balancing model. A variation in SAQDs' composition together with dot sizes allowed us to find that the optimal configuration for the non-volatile memory application is GaSbP/AlP SAQDs with the 0.55-0.65 Sb fraction and a height of 4-4.5 nm, providing the Eloc value of 1.35-1.50 eV. Additionally, the hole energy spectra in unstrained InSb/AlP and GaSb/AlP SAQDs were calculated. Eloc values up to 1.65-1.70 eV were predicted, and that makes unstrained InGaSb/AlP SAQDs a prospective object for the non-volatile memory application.

RESUMO

Optical quality cm-sized LiInSe2 crystals were grown using the Bridgman-Stockbarger method, starting from pure element reagents, under the conditions of a low temperature gradient of 5-6 degrees/cm and a slight melt overheating. The phase purity of the grown crystal was verified by the powder XRD analysis. The thermophysical characteristics of LiInSe2 were determined by the XRD measurements in the temperature range of 303-703 K and strong anisotropy of the thermal expansion coefficients was established. The following values of thermal expansion coefficients were determined in LiInSe2: αa = 8.1 (1), αb = 16.1 (2) and αc = 5.64 (6) MK-1. The electronic structure of LiInSe2 was measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The band structure of LiInSe2 was calculated by ab initio methods.

RESUMO

Praseodymium sulfate was obtained by the precipitation method and the crystal structure was determined by Rietveld analysis. Pr2(SO4)3 is crystallized in the monoclinic structure, space group C2/c, with cell parameters a = 21.6052 (4), b = 6.7237 (1) and c = 6.9777 (1) Å, ß = 107.9148 (7)°, Z = 4, V = 964.48 (3) Å3 (T = 150 °C). The thermal expansion of Pr2(SO4)3 is strongly anisotropic. As was obtained by XRD measurements, all cell parameters are increased on heating. However, due to a strong increase of the monoclinic angle ß, there is a direction of negative thermal expansion. In the argon atmosphere, Pr2(SO4)3 is stable in the temperature range of T = 30-870 °C. The kinetics of the thermal decomposition process of praseodymium sulfate octahydrate Pr2(SO4)3·8H2O was studied as well. The vibrational properties of Pr2(SO4)3 were examined by Raman and Fourier-transform infrared absorption spectroscopy methods. The band gap structure of Pr2(SO4)3 was evaluated by ab initio calculations, and it was found that the valence band top is dominated by the p electrons of oxygen ions, while the conduction band bottom is formed by the d electrons of Pr3+ ions. The exact position of ZPL is determined via PL and PLE spectra at 77 K to be at 481 nm, and that enabled a correct assignment of luminescent bands. The maximum luminescent band in Pr2(SO4)3 belongs to the 3P0 → 3F2 transition at 640 nm.

RESUMO

Using the density functional theory with the hybrid functional B3LYP and the basis of localized orbitals of the CRYSTAL17 program code, the dependences of the wavenumbers of normal long-wave ν vibrations on the P(GPa) pressure ν(cm-1) = ν0 + (dv/dP)·P + (d2v/dP2)·P and structural parameters R(Å) (R: a, b, c, RM-O, RC-O): ν(cm-1) = ν0 + (dv/dR) - (R - R0) were calculated. Calculations were made for crystals with the structure of calcite (MgCO3, ZnCO3, CdCO3), dolomite (CaMg(CO3)2, CdMg(CO3)2, CaZn(CO3)2) and aragonite (SrCO3, BaCO3, PbCO3). A comparison with the experimental data showed that the derivatives can be used to determine the P pressures, a, b, c lattice constants and the RM-O metal-oxygen, and the RC-O carbon-oxygen interatomic distances from the known Δν shifts. It was found that, with the increasing pressure, the lattice constants and distances R decrease, and the wavenumbers increase with velocities the more, the higher the ν0 is. The exceptions were individual low-frequency lattice modes and out-of-plane vibrations of the v2-type carbonate ion, for which the dependences are either nonlinear or have negative dv/dP (positive dv/dR) derivatives. The reason for this lies in the properties of chemical bonding and the nature of atomic displacements during these vibrations, which cause a decrease in RM-O and an increase in RC-O.

RESUMO

Within the framework of the density functional theory (DFT) and the hybrid functional B3LYP by means of the CRYSTAL17 program code, the wavenumbers and intensities of normal oscillations of MgCO3, CaCO3, ZnCO3, CdCO3 in the structure of calcite; CaMg(CO3)2, CdMg(CO3)2, CaMn(CO3)2, CaZn(CO3)2 in the structure of dolomite; BaMg(CO3)2 in the structure of the norsethite type; and CaCO3, SrCO3, BaCO3, and PbCO3 in the structure of aragonite were calculated. Infrared absorption and Raman spectra were compared with the known experimental data of synthetic and natural crystals. For lattice and intramolecular modes, linear dependences on the radius and mass of the metal cation are established. The obtained dependences have predictive power and can be used to study solid carbonate solutions. For trigonal and orthorhombic carbonates, the linear dependence of wavenumbers on the cation radius RM (or M-O distance) is established for the infrared in-plane bending mode: 786.2-65.88·RM and Raman in-plane stretching mode: 768.5-53.24·RM, with a correlation coefficient of 0.87.

RESUMO

The phase relations in the subsolidus region of the Tl2MoO4-Bi2(MoO4)3-Hf(MoO4)2 system were studied with the "intersecting cuts" method. The formation of the novel ternary molybdate Tl5BiHf(MoO4)6 is found in this ternary system. The compound has a phase transition at Tpt = 731 K (ΔH = -3.15 J/g) and melts at Tm = 871 K (ΔH = -41.71 J/g), as determined by a thermal analysis. Tl5BiHf(MoO4)6 single crystals were obtained by the spontaneous nucleation method. The crystal structure of Tl5BiHf(MoO4)6 was revealed by structure analysis methods. This molybdate crystallizes in the trigonal space group R3̅c with the unit cell parameters a = 10.6801(4) Å, c = 38.5518(14) Å, V = 3808.3(2) Å3, and Z = 6. The vibrational characteristics of Tl5BiHf(MoO4)6 were determined by Raman spectroscopy. The Tl5BiHf(MoO4)6 conductivity was measured at frequencies of 0.1, 1.0, and 10 kHz in the temperature range of 293-773 K; in this temperature range, the conductivity level was 10-12-10-7 S/cm.

RESUMO

Silver-europium double sulfate AgEu(SO4)2 was obtained by solid-phase reaction between Ag2SO4 and Eu2(SO4)3. The crystal structure of AgEu(SO4)2 was determined by Monte Carlo method with simulated annealing, and after that, it was refined by the Rietveld method from X-ray powder diffraction data. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic symmetry, space group P1̅ ( a = 0.632929(4), b = 0.690705(4), c = 0.705467(4) nm, α = 98.9614(4), ß = 84.5501(4), γ = 88.8201(4)°, V = 0.303069(3) nm3). Two types of sulfate tetrahedra were found in the structure, which significantly affects the spectroscopic properties in the IR-range. In the temperature range of 143-703 K, the average linear thermal expansion coefficients of cell parameters a, b, and c are very similar, (1.11-1.67) × 10-5 K-1 in magnitude, and therefore, AgEu(SO4)2 expands almost isotropically. Upon heating in argon flow, AgEu(SO4)2 is stable up to 1053 K. The luminescence spectra in the region of ultranarrow 5D0-7F0 transition contain a single narrow and symmetric line at 579.5 nm that is evidence of good crystalline quality of AgEu(SO4)2 and uniform local environment of Eu3+ ions in the structure. Distribution of luminescence bands is determined by the environment of Eu3+ ions in the structure. Influence of Ag+ ions on the electron density distribution at Eu sites is detected.

RESUMO

Exploring new perovskite-related solid-state materials and the investigating composition-dependent structural and physical properties are highly important for advanced functional material development. Herein, we present the successful hydrothermal synthesis of tetragonal CsPb2Cl5 and the anion-exchange phase formation of CsPb2(Cl1- xBr x)5 ( x = 0-1) solid solutions. The CsPb2(Cl1- xBr x)5 crystal structures, which crystallize in the tetragonal system, space group I4/ mcm, with parameters similar to those of CsPb2Cl5, have been determined by Rietveld analysis. The optical band gap was obtained by UV-vis spectroscopy, and the band structure was further calculated by the full-potential method within the generalized gradient approximation. It was revealed that the band gap in CsPb2(Cl1- xBr x)5 solid solutions can be tuned over the range of 4.5-3.8 eV by anion substitution.

RESUMO

Cs2Pb(MoO4)2 crystals were prepared by crystallization from their own melt, and the crystal structure has been studied in detail. At 296 K, the molybdate crystallizes in the low-temperature α-form and has a monoclinic palmierite-related superstructure (space group C2/m, a = 2.13755(13) nm, b = 1.23123(8) nm, c = 1.68024(10) nm, ß = 115.037(2)°, Z = 16) possessing the largest unit cell volume, 4.0066(4) nm3, among lead-containing palmierites. The compound undergoes a distortive phase transition at 635 K and incongruently melts at 943 K. The electronic structure of α-Cs2Pb(MoO4)2 was explored by using X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy methods. For α-Cs2Pb(MoO4)2, the photoelectron core-level and valence-band spectra and the XES band representing the energy distribution of Mo 4d and O 2p states were recorded. Our results allow one to conclude that the Mo 4d and O 2p states contribute mainly to the central part and at the top of the valence band, respectively, with also significant contributions throughout the whole valence-band region of the molybdate under consideration.

RESUMO

Triple molybdate NaCaLa(1-x-y)(MoO4)3:xEr3+,yYb3+ (x = y = 0, x = 0.05 and y = 0.45, x = 0.1 and y = 0.2, x = 0.2 and y = 0) phosphors were successfully synthesized for the first time by the microwave sol-gel method. Well-crystallized particles formed after heat treatment at 900 °C for 16 h showed a fine and homogeneous morphology with particle sizes of 2-3 µm. The structures were refined by the Rietveld method in the space group I41/a. The optical properties were examined comparatively using photoluminescence emission and Raman spectroscopy. Under excitation at 980 nm, the NaCaLa0.7(MoO4)3:0.1Er3+,0.2Yb3+ and NaCaLa0.5(MoO4)3:0.05Er3+,0.45Yb3+ particles exhibited a strong 525 nm emission band, a weaker 550 nm emission band in the green region, and three weak 655 nm, 490 nm and 410 nm emission bands in the red, blue and violet regions. The pump power dependence and Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage chromaticity of the upconversion emission intensity were evaluated in detail.

RESUMO

The Lu2.98Ce0.01Y0.01Al5O12 and Y2.99Ce0.01Al5O12 phosphors were synthesized by solid state reaction at temperature 1623 K and pressure 1.5 × 10(7) Pa in (95% N2 + 5% H2) atmosphere. Under the conditions, the compounds crystallize in the form of isolated euhedral partly faceted microcrystals ∼19 µm in size. The crystal structures of the Lu2.98Ce0.01Y0.01Al5O12 and Y2.99Ce0.01Al5O12 garnets have been obtained by Rietveld analysis. The photoluminescence (PL) and X-ray excited luminescence (XL) spectra obtained at room temperature indicate broad asymmetric bands with maxima near 519 and 540 nm for Y2.99Ce0.01Al5O12 and Lu2.98Ce0.01Y0.01Al5O12, respectively. The light source was fabricated using the powder Lu2.98Ce0.01Y0.01Al5O12 phosphor and commercial blue-emitting n-UV LED chips (λ(ex) = 450 nm). It is found that the CIE chromaticity coordinates are (x = 0.388, y = 0.563) with the warm white light emission correlated color temperature (CCT) of 6400 K and good luminous efficiency of 110 lm/W.

RESUMO

In this study, the Ba3Eu(PO4)3 and Sr3Eu(PO4)3 compounds were synthesized and the crystal structures were determined for the first time by Rietveld refinement using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns. Ba3Eu(PO4)3 crystallizes in cubic space group I43d, with cell parameters of a = 10.47996(9) Å, V = 1151.01(3) Å(3) and Z = 4; Ba(2+) and Eu(3+) occupy the same site with partial occupancies of 3/4 and 1/4, respectively. Besides, in this structure, there exists two distorted kinds of the PO4 polyhedra orientation. Sr3Eu(PO4)3 is isostructural to Ba3Eu(PO4)3 and has much smaller cell parameters of a = 10.1203(2) Å, V = 1036.52(5) Å(3). The bandgaps of Ba3Eu(PO4)3 and Sr3Eu(PO4)3 are determined to be 4.091 eV and 3.987 eV, respectively, based on the UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra. The photoluminescence measurements reveal that, upon 396 nm n-UV light excitation, Ba3Eu(PO4)3 and Sr3Eu(PO4)3 exhibit orange-red emission with two main peaks at 596 nm and prevailing 613 nm, corresponding to the (5)D0 → (7)F1 and (5)D0 → (7)F2 transitions of Eu(3+), respectively. The dynamic disordering in the crystal structures contributes to the broadening of the luminescence spectra. The electronic structure of the phosphates was calculated by the first-principles method. The analysis elucidats that the band structures are mainly governed by the orbits of phosphorus, oxygen and europium, and the sharp peaks of the europium f-orbit occur at the top of the valence bands.

RESUMO

A series of iso-structural eulytite-type (Ba,Sr)3Lu(PO4)3:Eu(2+) solid-solution phosphors with different Sr/Ba ratios were synthesized by a solid-state reaction. Crystal structures of (Ba,Sr)3Lu(PO4)3:Eu(2+) were resolved by the Rietveld method, which shows an eulytite-type cubic Bi4(SiO4)3 structure with cations disordered in a single C3 site while the oxygen atoms were distributed over two partially occupied sites. The emission peaks of Ba((3-x))Sr(x)Lu(PO4)3:Eu(2+) (0 ≤ x ≤ 3) phosphors were blue-shifted, from 506 to 479 nm, with increasing Sr/Ba ratio upon the same excitation wavelength of 365 nm, and such interesting luminescence behaviours can also be found in other eulytite-type (Ba,Sr)3Ln(PO4)3:Eu(2+) (Ln = Y, Gd) solid-solution phosphors. The blue-shift of the Eu(2+) emission with increasing Sr/Ba ratio was ascribed to the variation of the crystal field strength that the 5d orbital of Eu(2+) ion experiences, and a new model based on the Eu-O bond length and released neighboring-cation stress in disordered Ba(2+)/Sr(2+)/Ln(3+) sites is proposed.

RESUMO

Cation substitution dependent tunable bimodal photoluminescence behavior was observed in the Ca3-xSrx(PO4)2:Eu(2+) (0 ≤ x ≤ 2) solid solution phosphors. The Rietveld refinements verified the phase purity and whitlockite type crystal structure of the solid solutions. The tunable photoluminescence evolution was studied as a function of strontium content, over the composition range 0.1 ≤ x ≤ 2. In addition to the emission band peak at 416 nm in Ca3(PO4)2:Eu(2+), the substitution of Ca(2+) by Sr(2+) induced the emerging broad-band peak at 493-532 nm. A dramatic red shift of the emission peak located in the green-yellow region was observed on an increase of x in the samples with 0.75 ≤ x ≤ 2.00. The two emission bands could be related to the EuOn-Ca9 and EuOn-Ca9-xSrx emitting blocks, respectively. The values for the two kinds of emitting blocks in the solid solutions can be fitted well with the observed intensity evolution of the two emission peaks.
