Physical properties of chalcogenide glasses in the ${\text{As}}_{x}{\text{Se}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}$ system have been measured as a function composition including Young's modulus $E$, shear $G$, bulk $K$, Poisson's ratio $\ensuremath{\nu}$, density $\ensuremath{\rho}$, and glass transition ${T}_{\text{g}}$. All these exhibit relatively sharp extremum at average coordination number $⟨r⟩=2.4$. The structural origin this trend is investigated by Raman spectroscopy nuclear magnetic resonance. It...
Reactions in solvothermal conditions between hexanuclear rare earth complexes and H2bdc, where H2bdc symbolizes terephthalic acid, lead to a family of monodimensional coordination polymers which act as metallic nodes. The cores can be either homometallic with general chemical formula [Ln6O(OH)8(NO3)6]2+ (Ln = Pr–Lu plus Y) or heterometallic [Ln6xLn′6–6xO(OH)8(NO3)6]2+ Ln′ Y). Whatever the entity is, resulting polymer is iso-structural [Y6O(OH)8(NO3)2(bdc)(Hbdc)2·2NO3·H2bdc]∞, that we have...
We report on 207Pb, 79Br, 14N, 1H, 13C and 2H NMR experiments for studying the local order dynamics in hybrid perovskite lattices. 207Pb conducted at room temperature a series of MAPbX3 compounds (MA = CH3NH3+; X Cl, Br I) showed that isotropic shift is strongly dependent nature halogen ions. Therefore appears to be very promising tool characterisation mixed perovskites. MAPbBr2I served as proof concept. Proton, 14N confirmed results previously reported literature. Low deuterium...
Tremendous enhancement of optical emission efficiency was achieved in fluorosilicate glasses by growing lanthanide doped fluoride nanocrystals embedded oxide glass matrix. The formation mechanism the microstructure elucidated combining solid-state NMR, scanning TEM, EDX map, and large-scale molecular dynamics simulations. results reveal that growth originated from phase separation. Atomic level structures separation fluoride-rich regions oxyfluoride matrix were observed both maps MD...
The straightforward synthesis of a new Cu(i) metal-rich small metallacycle is presented. This compound luminescent in the solid state with an emission quantum yield 72% at room temperature and displays pronounced reversible red-shift its spectra upon cooling. Quantum chemical calculations reveal that these properties are governed by important geometrical relaxations imply formation cuprophilic interactions excited states.
Isostructural lanthanide-based coordination polymers that are obtained by reactions in water of a lanthanide chloride and the sodium salt 5-methoxyisophthalate (mip2–) have general chemical formula [Ln2(mip)3(H2O)8·4H2O]∞ with Ln = Nd–Er except Pm plus Y (symbolized [Ln2(mip)3]∞). Some these homo-lanthanide compounds present very high luminescence brightness. The weak intermetallic energy transfer between ions observed allows design hetero-lanthanide tunable properties. A molecular alloy...

The solventless reaction of diisopropylaminoborane with n-butylamine, at room temperature, leads to a mixture B(sp2) H-, B(sp3) H2 -, and H3 -containing species. At low the outcome is completely modified, thus leading selectively formation high-mass polybutylaminoborane. When extended variety primary amines, under conditions this provides new, efficient, direct metal-free access high-molecular-mass polyaminoboranes in good high yields mild conditions.

Hybrid nanomaterials made of inorganic nanocomponents dispersed in an organic host raise increasing interest as low-cost solution-processable functional materials. However, preventing phase segregation while allowing a high doping content remains major challenge, and usual methods require functionalization step prior integration. Herein, we report new approach to design such nanocomposite which ceramic-like metallic nanocluster compounds are embedded at 10 wt % copolymers, without any...

Replacing pure inorganic materials by functional organic-inorganic hybrid ones to lower production costs has become a major challenge, in particular for the optoelectronic industry. Adding nanostructuration abilities meanwhile preserving homogeneity is even more challenging this class of new materials.
