Book Spectroscopy of Transition Metal Ions on Surfaces

Download or read book Spectroscopy of Transition Metal Ions on Surfaces written by Bert M. Weckhuysen and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemical industries are based on catalytic processes as both bulk and fine chemicals are often produced with heterogeneous catalysts. Transition metal ions dispersed on high-surface area inorganic solids are very important catalysts and a full characterization of these materials requires a profound knowledge of the oxidation state, coordination environment and dispersion of the metal ions on the catalyst surface. Such information can only be obtained by using a combination of complementary spectroscopic techniques. 'Spectroscopy of Transition metal ions on Surfaces' serves as an introduction to some of the most important spectroscopic techniques nowadays used for studying the chemistry and catalytic properties of transition metal ions on surfaces. The basic principles and the strengths and weaknesses of continuous wave electron spin resonance, pulsed electron spin resonance, solid state nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy are critically reviewed by internationally recognized experts. This gives the reader a solid background for judging literature results and for planning and conducting his/her own experiments. Each chapter closes with several relevant examples mainly from the recent literature. In addition, the use of in situ techniques and chemometrical techniques has been included because of its growing importance in catalyst characterization. As a consequence, the book has been written as a text not only for graduate students, but also for anyone else who is new in the field and wants a recent update. The following scientists have contributed to this textbook: Br.

Book Properties of Perovskites and Other Oxides

Download or read book Properties of Perovskites and Other Oxides written by K. Alex Mller and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2010 with total page 583 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book some 50 papers published by K A Müller as author or co-author over several decades, amplified by more recent work mainly by T W Kool with collaborators, are reproduced. The main subject is Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) applied to the study of perovskites and other oxides with related subjects. This wealth of papers is organized into eleven chapters, each with an introductory text written in the light of current understanding. The contributions of the first editor on structural phase transitions have been immense, and because K A Müller and J C Fayet have published a review paper on the subject, the latter is reproduced in chapter VII. Not related to EPR is a part of chapter VIII on the dipolar and quantum paraelectric behavior with dielectric studies. In chapter X two papers proving the existence of Fermi glasses are reproduced.The year 1986 bears some significance: early in this year the paper by Bednorz and Müller on the possible observation of superconductivity was published. This resulted in a substantial shift in the paradigm of condensed matter physics, to which the present first editor has contributed scientifically with others and which will be reviewed in a second volume.

Book Optical and Magnetic Resonance Investigations of 3d Ions in Single Crystal Hosts  Candidates for Tunable Solid State Lasers

Download or read book Optical and Magnetic Resonance Investigations of 3d Ions in Single Crystal Hosts Candidates for Tunable Solid State Lasers written by David J. Singel and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive report is presented on EPR and correlated optical spectroscopic studies conducted in our laboratory on a new class of solid-state materials with potential utility as near IR lasers. All of the studied materials involve oxide host lattices (Silicates, vanadates, and germanates) doped with 3d transition metal-ions (chromium and manganese). The novelty of the materials is connected to the tetrahedral coordination and unusual oxidation state of the dopant ions. EPR spectroscopy is to determine the elemental identity of the dopant ions, the 'spin' of the ions and hence their oxidation numbers, and the crystallographic position of the ion hence its coordination number. These properties are then attached to relevant optical centers through magnetic resonance correlated optical spectroscopies, such as optical Zeeman spectroscopy. In the Cr:forsterite laser system, our results prove that the near IR lasing center is tetrahedral Cr3(+). In Mn:Ba3(VO4)2 EPR spectroscopy shows that tetrahedral Mn5(+) and Mn4(+) centers are both present in the material; a novel spin-echo pulsed laser double resonance method is introduced to prove that the tetrahedral Mn5(+) is the active center.

Book Electron Paramagnetic Resonance of d Transition Metal Compounds

Download or read book Electron Paramagnetic Resonance of d Transition Metal Compounds written by F.E. Mabbs and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 1347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electron paramagnetic resonance (epr) spectroscopy is a sensitive and versatile method of studying paramagnets, which is finding increasing use in chemistry, biochemistry, earth and materials sciences. The technique is treated both qualitatively and quantitatively, with a progressive increase in sophistication in each succeeding chapter. Following a general introductory chapter, the first half of the book deals with single unpaired electron systems and considers both metal and ligand Zeeman, hyperfine and quadrupole interactions. The simulation of these spectra is discussed, followed by the relationship between spin-Hamiltonian parameters and models of the electronic structures of paramagnets. The second half of the book treats multiple unpaired electron systems using the same philosophy. An introduction to the epr properties of cluster compounds and of extended exchanging systems is also given. There is a chapter on linewidths and lineshapes, and an extensive appendix containing much additional information. A wide-ranging library of simulated and experimental spectra is given, as well as graphical data which should aid spectrum interpretation. Each chapter contains key references and there is a substantial subject and keyword index. This book is designed to teach epr spectroscopy to students without any previous knowledge of the technique. However, it will also be extremely useful to researchers dealing with paramagnetic d transition metals.

Book Electron Spin Resonance of Metal Complexes

Download or read book Electron Spin Resonance of Metal Complexes written by Teh Yen and published by Springer. This book was released on 1995-12-31 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a number of years, there existed a real gap between the science of metal complexes and that of electron spin resonance (ESR). Simple reasons account for this fact. At a certain stage of development the scientists engaged in investigations of metal complexes did not have access to ESR instrumen tation, while on the other hand, ESR theoreticians rarely had an interest in exploring the chemical applications of metal complexes. More recently chemical physicists have started to make intensive efforts to bridge the gap by applying the ESR technique to a wide range of chemical problems, particularly those involving transition metals and their complexes. In large measure the successes of the theory of the electronic structure of transition metal ions are due to the comprehensive and precise results of ESR studies by chemical physicists. On the other hand, chemists also seem to have realized lately that an immense amount of information can be obtained from ESR data. It is obvious, therefore, that a symposium bringing together the various disciplines was necessary, and there was little doubt that in such a symposium a considerable advantage could be gained from the exchange of information among scientists with different research interests. Consequently, a sym posium on "ESR of Metal Chelates" was held on March 4, 1968, at the Pittsburgh Conference on Analytical Chemistry and Applied Spectroscopy, at the Cleveland Convention Center.
