Solvatochromic effects in absorption and luminescence
spectra and stability of emission quantum yield
 of carbon nanoparticles (part II)


S. A. Kazaryan, V. N. Nevolin, S. Kh. Pilosyan


Have been investigated and analyzed the spectroscopic features of the solvatochromic effects of absorption and luminescence bands, as well as the parameters of the quantum yield of emission (QYE) of proton and aprotic solutions of carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) synthesized by microwave radiation from a mixture of citric acid and urea. It was found that the QYE of particle has an exponential dependence on the polarity and the sum of the acidity and basicity of the solvents. The influence of hydrogen bonding and interaction of particles with electromagnetic radiation on the parameters of solvatochromic effects of absorption bands, luminescence and QYE of nanoparticles is studied. Within the framework of the models of Lippert – Mataga, Bilot – Kavsky, Liptai, McRae, Kamlet – Taft, Catalan and by the method of linear regression analysis, it was established that the solvatochromic effects of CNPs, in addition to universal interactions, also largely depend on specific interactions. An increase in the polarity and the sum of the acidity and basicity of the solvents creates a hypsochromic shift of the absorption band at 410 nm and a bathochromic shift of the green luminescence band of CNPs. It is shown that the optical centers of green emission are localized on the surfaces of the particles. A model of the energy levels of the centers of green emission of particles is proposed, and it is established that the dipole moment of the excited state of the centers is greater than the dipole moment of the ground state.


Keywords: luminescence of nanoparticles, fluorescence of nanoparticles, carbon nanoparticles, emission quantum yield of the nanoparticles, synthesis of carbon nanoparticles, solvatochromic effect of nanoparticle, dipole moments of nanoparticles, Stokes shift.

Study of rheological and structural properties
 of modified carboxymethyl cellulose solutions
 using cross-linking agents based on substituted oxyranes


A. N. Venzhik, D. A. Nikolaev, I. V. Romanova


Modified carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) biopolymer materials are widely used in various fields of medicine. For different medical purpose and therapeutic goals it is required to regulate the degree of biodegradation of implanted biopolymers by synthesizing modified gels using substituted oxiranes cross-linkers — 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE) and polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (PEGDE). However, a high cost of the ones determine actual the investigation of new crosslinking agents that will be more cheaper and at the same time will not require a change in the technological process. So, the crosslinking agent polypropylene glycol diglycidyl ether (PPGDE) was chosen. In this work the rheological and structural properties of modified CMC gels with a new crosslinking agent - polypropylene glycol diglycidyl ether (PPGDE) — were investigated and compared with the properties of both unmodified CMC and modified CMC using BDDE and PEGDE. It is shown the modified samples have a 2 – 3 times higher viscosity in comparison with unmodified CMC. The sample modified with PPGDE showed high viscosity and shear force, however, the difference in the ones compared to other samples is small. The modification degree of all gels is similar, but the cross-linking degree of PPGDE is practically absent. However, due to the low degree of crosslinking in the rest of the samples, this parameter does not effect on the viscosity of the solution. The cytotoxicity of all gels was also tested, which confirmed their low toxicity. Thus, gels using a new cross-linking agent — PPGDE — exhibit similar properties with both BDDE and PEGDE, which makes it possible to predict other properties and effects in practical use.

Plasma coatings of hydroxyapatite (HA) were formed on Ti substrates in modes to obtain high mechanical properties, structural stability, and phase composition. Preheating the titanium substrate to 550 °C increases the content of the HA phase in the coating to 92 % and its equilibrium, there is no local thermal effect of heat release at 723 °C, as in the case of a coating sprayed onto an unheated substrate in DSC studies, there is no halo in the X-ray diffraction pattern in the region of the main reflections GA. Hydrothermal treatment (HTT) of the HA coating at 650 °C increases the HA content to 98%, regardless of the temperature of the preheating of the Ti substrate. Regardless of the state of the coatings, there is a gradual release of heat in DSC studies in the range of 450 – 1000 °C, which increases after hydrothermal treatment. This phenomenon requires additional research. The crystallite size in the sprayed coatings, 42.1 – 43.1 nm, increases after HTT to 64.4 – 68.3 nm and is comparable to the crystallite size in the sprayed powder, 57.4 nm. After HTT of coating, the tricalcium phosphate phase is absent.


Keywords: hydroxyapatite, plasma coatings, hydrothermal treatment, differential scanning calorimetry.

Features of thermal expansion of pyrite in air


A. M. Klyushnikov, E. N. Selivanov, S. M. Pikalov


The composition of natural pyrite has been studied by atomic emission spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy. According to high-temperature X-ray powder diffraction data, the phase transformations of the grinded (< 0.1 mm) sample in air were studied. It is shown that heating up to 500 °C leads to its oxidation with the formation of a mixture of magnetite (up to 44.5 wt %) and hematite (up to 55.5 wt %). The low ignition temperature (360 – 400 °C) is explained by the oxidation of impurity sulfur. Using the results of a full-profile analysis of X-ray powder diffraction data performed by the Rietveld method, the parameters of the pyrite unit cell are determined, and the coefficients of thermal expansion of the pyrite are calculated. Empirical equations describing the change in the lattice period of pyrite when heated in air in the range of 20 – 380 °C are proposed. The linear coefficient of the actual thermal expansion (9.72·10–6 °C–1) is close to the known estimates. Above 234 °C, the effect of chemical expansion is noted, which increases the coefficient of thermal expansion up to 62.96·10–6°C–1 near 380 °C. A significant increase in interatomic distances can affect the adsorption capacity of pyrite, which determines its catalytic activity as applied to the decomposition of nitrogen oxides.

Influence of technological conditions
in the formation of electric conducting
 thermoplastic polymergraphite composites


V. N. Gorshenev


The article discusses the synthesis and properties of electrically conductive polymer composite materials based on low-ash graphite grade GSM-1, modified with acids using bisulfate technology. Investigations of the influence of such technological methods as pressing and rolling on rollers with a variable gap on the conductivity of composite materials based on thermally expanded graphite and thermally expanded polymer-graphite compositions containing acid-modified graphite have been carried out. It is shown that, by applying to polymer composites the technological methods of thermal expansion, pressing, and rolling on rollers, it is possible, firstly, to combine fillers of different nature, shapes and sizes, and, secondly, to obtain composites with the required conductivity of an electrically conductive polymer composite. The paper shows the advantage of using thermally expanded graphite in comparison with other forms of graphite to obtain highly conductive polymer compositions.

Selective hydrogen absorption by Ti – Ni
 powder near equiatomic concentration
 after a high-intensity mechanical treatment


E. V. Abdulmenova, S. N. Kulkov


The Ti-Ni powder with the composition close to the equiatomic one after its high-intensity mechanical treatment and hydrogenation by electrochemical method were studied. It was shown that the powder in its initial state consists of a mixture of TiNi (austenite, martensite), Ti2Ni, and TiNi3 phases, and after ball milling, an X-ray amorphous phase is formed. It has been shown that the dislocation density estimated from X-ray data after treatment changes differently in all phases: for the Ti2Ni phase it is significantly greater than that for the TiNi and Ni3Ti. It is found that the lattice parameters of the TiNi (austenite) and Ni3Ti phases do not change during electrochemical hydrogenation after treatments and coincide with literature data. The lattice parameter of the Ti2Ni phase increases, which indicates the predominant interaction of hydrogen with the Ti2Ni phase due to the high dislocation density and the content of rather large octahedral / tetrahedral voids. It has been shown that there is an “incubation period” of hydrogenation of the Ti2Ni phase, which attains 90 min for 10 s treatment. It is shown the lattice parameter of the Ti2Ni based phase corresponds to Ti2NiH0.5 and Ti2NiH0.8 hydrides depending on the milling time and hydrogenation time, for example the lattice parameter of theTi2Ni based phase can correspond to Ti2NiH0.5 and Ti2NiH0.8 hydrides after 30 s and 300 s milling after 90 min hydrogenation and correspond to Ti2NiH0.5 after 10 s milling after 140-180 min hydrogenation.

Features of pore filling
of track membranes in synthesis
of nanowires of FeNi alloy


I. M. Doludenko


In this work, by the method of matrix synthesis, nanowires were obtained from Fe – Ni alloy with an elemental composition close to permalloy, namely, 20 % iron and 80 % nickel. As a matrix, we used track membranes made of polyethylene terephthalate with pores 100 nm in diameter. Before deposition, the matrix was prepared in a special way to create a continuous contact at the bottom of the pore. The pores of the matrix were filled with metals by electrochemical deposition. The aim of this work was to study the kinetics of nanowire growth and to establish the dependence of the nanowire length on the deposition time. The morphology and geometry of the resulting nanowires were investigated by scanning electron microscopy. It was shown that the growth rate at different stages of filling the pores of the matrix is different, and it changes nonlinearly. The indicators of the current efficiency at various stages of filling the matrix are calculated, the changes in this indicator coincide with the change in the growth rate. Explanations for the nonlinearity of the growth rate are proposed. An equation describing the dependence of the length of medium nanowires on the deposition time is derived by the method of linear interpolation.

Technique to monitor gate dielectric
of MIS structure
based on high-field charge injection


D. V. Andreev


The paper suggests a novel technique to study charge characteristics and monitor quality of thin dielectric films of MIS structures. The technique is based on a modification of the method of high-field charge injection into dielectric under increasing current. The proposed technique consists in applying of the increasing current stress to MIS structure studied. The technique, besides monitoring parameters characterizing dielectric breakdown, makes possible to monitor change in charge state of the dielectric. In order to implement this, at levels of injection current density when changes in charge state of MIS structure become higher than a threshold levels, a transition to injection with measurement current level (Jm) for a short period of time being made. We choose a value of Jm on the basis of that this level must not significantly influence on the dielectric charge state and transitions to the level must not highly influence on the test procedure. As a result, it is possible to obtain dependencies of voltage across MIS structure on time or value of injected charge at a constant value of the measurement injection current (Jm) for all the range of increasing current stress. From these dependencies we can acquire key parameters characterizing charge effects taking place in MIS structure being under high-field injection of electrons and specifying degradation effects observing in the gate dielectric film.


Keywords: MIS structure, test technique, gate dielectric, injection current, charge accumulation, stress.
