Reinvestigation of the low-temperature form of Ag(2)Se (naumannite) based on single-crystal data.

ABSTRACT: The crystal structure of the low-temperature form of synthetic naumannite [disilver(I) selenide], Ag(2)Se, has been reinvestigated based on single-crystal data. In comparison with previous powder diffraction studies, anisotropic displacement parameters are additionally reported. The structure is composed of Se layers and two crystallographically independent Ag atoms. One Ag atom lies close to the Se layer and is surrounded by four Se atoms in a distorted tetra-hedral coordination, while the second Ag atom lies between the Se layers and exhibits a [3 + 1] coordination defined by three close Se atoms, forming a trigonal plane, and one remote Se atom.

Reinvestigation of trilithium divanadium(III) tris-(orthophosphate), Li(3)V(2)(PO(4))(3), based on single-crystal X-ray data.

Project description:The structure of Li(3)V(2)(PO(4))(3) has been reinvestigated from single-crystal X-ray data. Although the results of the previous studies (all based on powder diffraction data) are comparable with our redetermination, all atoms were refined with anisotropic displacement parameters in the current study, and the resulting bond lengths are more accurate than those determined from powder diffraction data. The title compound adopts the Li(3)Fe(2)(PO(4))(3) structure type. The structure is composed of VO(6) octa-hedra and PO(4) tetra-hedra by sharing O atoms to form the three-dimensional anionic framework (∞) (3)[V(2)(PO(4))(3)](3-). The positions of the Li(+) ions in the empty channels can vary depending on the synthetic conditions. Bond-valence-sum calculations showed structures that are similar to the results of the present study seem to be more stable compared with others. The classical charge balance of the title compound can be represented as [Li(+)](3)[V(3+)](2)[P(5+)](3)[O(2-)](12).

Redetermination of the low-temperature polymorph of Li(2)MnSiO(4) from single-crystal X-ray data.

Project description:Crystals of dilithium manganese(II) silicate were grown under high-temperature hydro-thermal conditions in the system LiOH-MnO(2)-SiO(2). The title compound crystallizes in the β(II)-Li(3)PO(4) structure type. The coordination polyhedra of all cations are slightly distorted tetra-hedra (m symmetry for MnO(4) and SiO(4)), which are linked by corner-sharing to each other. The vertices of the tetra-hedra point to the same direction perpendicular to the distorted hexa-gonal close-packed (hcp) array of O atoms within which half of the tetra-hedral voids are occupied by cations. In comparison with the previous refinement from powder X-ray data [Dominko et al. (2006 ▶). Electrochem. Commun.8, 217-222], the present reinvestigation from single-crystal X-ray data allows a more precise determination of the distribution of the Li(+) and Mn(2+) cations, giving a perfectly site-ordered structure model for both Li(+) and Mn(2+).

Reliable low-temperature die attach process using Ag/Sn/Ag sandwich structure for high-temperature semiconductor devices.

Project description:A low-cost and eco-friendly die attach process for high temperatures should be developed owing to the expansion of the field of high-temperature applications, such as high-power and high-frequency semiconductors. Pb-based and Au-based systems have been used as conventional die attach materials for high-temperature devices. However, these materials exhibit environmental problems and are expensive. Here, we show that the die attach process using the backside metal of the Ag/Sn/Ag sandwich structure is successfully developed for the mass production of Si devices. It has a low-temperature bonding process (235 °C), a high remelting temperature (above 400 °C), and rapid bonding time (20 ms). In addition, it exhibits better properties than Au-12Ge and Pb-10Sn backside metals, which are conventional materials for the high-temperature die attach process. After the die bonding process, various reliability tests of Si devices with the Ag/Sn/Ag backside metal structure were performed.

Reinvestigation of the crystal structure of lautite, CuAsS.

Project description:The crystal structure of the mineral lautite (copper arsenic sulfide), CuAsS, previously described as either centrosymmetric [Pnma; Marumo & Nowacki (1964 ?). Schweiz. Miner. Petro. Mitt.44, 439-454] or noncentrosymmetric [Pna2(1); Craig & Stephenson (1965 ?). Acta Cryst.19, 543-547], was reinvestigated by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The centrosymmetric structural model reported previously was confirmed, although with improved precision for the atomic coordinates and inter-atomic distances. Lautite shows a sphalerite-derivative structure with a linking of Cu[AsS(3)], As[CuAs(2)S] and S[Cu(3)As] tetra-hedra. All atoms lie on special positions (Wyckoff position 4c, site symmetry m).

Rerefinement of the crystal structure of SnTe0.73(2)Se0.27(2) from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data.

Project description:Compounds of the solid solution series SnTe1-x Se x , derived from pristine SnSe and SnTe, are considered as thermoelectric lead-free materials. The crystal structure re-refinement of NaCl-type SnTe0.73 (2)Se0.27 (2) is based on single-crystal X-ray diffraction data and results in higher precision of the bond length [Sn-(Te,Se) = 3.0798 (3) Å] compared to a previous report on basis of powder X-ray data [Krebs & Langner (1964 ▸).

Low-temperature crystal structure of the unconventional spin-triplet superconductor UTe2 from single-crystal neutron diffraction.

Project description:The crystal structure of a new superconductor UTe2 has been investigated using single-crystal neutron diffraction for the first time at the low temperature (LT) of 2.7 K, just above the superconducting transition temperature of ∼1.6 K, in order to clarify whether the orthorhombic structure of type Immm (No. 71), reported for the room-temperature (RT) structure persists down to the superconducting phase and can be considered as a parent symmetry for the development of spin-triplet superconductivity. In contrast to the previously reported phase transition at about 100 K [Stöwe (1996). J. Solid State Chem. 127, 202-210], our high-precision LT neutron diffraction data show that the body-centred RT symmetry is indeed maintained down to 2.7 K. No sign of a structural change from RT down to 2.7 K was observed. The most significant change depending on temperature was observed for the U ion position and the U-U distance along the c direction, implying its potential importance as a magnetic interaction path. No magnetic order could be deduced from the neutron diffraction data refinement at 2.7 K, consistent with bulk magnetometry. Assuming normal thermal evolution of the lattice parameters, moderately large linear thermal expansion coefficients of about α = 2.8 (7) × 10-5 K-1 are estimated.

Low-temperature electronic transport of manganese silicide shell-protected single crystal nanowires for nanoelectronics applications.

Project description:Recently, core-shell nanowires have been proposed as potential electrical connectors for nanoelectronics components. A promising candidate is Mn5Si3 nanowires encapsulated in an oxide shell, due to their low reactivity and large flexibility. In this work, we investigate the use of the one-step metallic flux nanonucleation method to easily grow manganese silicide single crystal oxide-protected nanowires by performing their structural and electrical characterization. We find that the fabrication method yields a room-temperature hexagonal crystalline structure with the c-axis along the nanowire. Moreover, the obtained nanowires are metallic at low temperature and low sensitive to a strong external magnetic field. Finally, we observe an unknown electron scattering mechanism for small diameters. In conclusion, the one-step metallic flux nanonucleation method yields intermetallic nanowires suitable for both integration in flexible nanoelectronics as well as low-dimensionality transport experiments.

Abnormal drop in electrical resistivity with impurity doping of single-crystal Ag.

Project description:Resistivity is an intrinsic feature that specifies the electrical properties of a material and depends on electron-phonon scattering near room temperature. Reducing the resistivity of a metal to its potentially lowest value requires eliminating grain boundaries and impurities, but to date few studies have focused on reducing the intrinsic resistivity of a pure metal itself. We could reduce the intrinsic resistivity of single-crystal Ag, which has an almost perfect structure, by impurity doping it with Cu. This paper presents our results: resistivity was reduced to 1.35 μΩ · cm at room temperature after 3 mol% Cu-doping of single-crystal Ag. Various mechanisms were examined in an attempt to explain the abnormal behavior.
