The electronic structure and optical properties of crystalline C 60 and their pressure dependence have been studied by first-principles local density calculations. It is shown that fcc C 60 has a low dielectric constant and an optical spectrum rich in structures. The spectrum shows five disconnected absorption bands in the 1.4 to 7.0 eV region with sharp structures in each band that can be attributed to critical point transitions. This is a manifestation of the localized molecular structure coupled with long range crystalline order unique to the C 60 crystal. At a sufficient high pressure, the structures in the optical spectrum start to merge due to the merging of the bands. These results are in good agreement with some recent experimental measurements.

AbstractAn investigation has been made of the relative Kβ intensities in different chemical states of the sulfur atom using the Kα lines, with appropriate corrections, to provide the intensity standards. Both inorganic and organic compounds were included in the study. The data for each compound appear to be reliable to about ± 0.5%, while the whole series of compounds shows a variation greater than 20% in the corrected Kβ/Kα ratios. Energies were also measured, particularly the Kα energies, and their shifts were studied relative to the Kβ, intensity shifts. The work was done with a plane, single-crystal, helium-path spectrometer with proportional counter and pulse-height analysis for detection. The results are indicative of the usefulness of the method both in clarifying an uncertain chemical state and in studying the electronic structure of the bonded atom.

ABSTRACTThe arsenic antisite-arsenic interstitial pair model for the stable configuration of the EL2 defect in GaAs has stimulated new experimental and theoretical studies, the results of which lead to additional support for this model. Recent theoretical studies, taking into account the effect of a Jahn Teller distortion of the T2 Asi levels have given an insight into the stability and the electronic structure of the defect pair. Further, ODENDOR studies have directly confirmed this model and allowed one to specify the lattice location and the charge state of the Asi ion. The pair structure of this defect implies a reconsideration of the charge states of the EL2 defect, as well as the origin of the optical absorption bands for which transitions on the Asi ion and intracenter bands have also to be considered. The model leads further to a description of the metastable configuration : an arsenic molecule at the gallium vacancy site, the electronic structure of which is calculated. The vacancy related defects, known from electron irradiation studies, are not detected in LEC grown GaAs as native defects.

. The [Pt(tbtrpy)(X)][TCNQ] (X = OH or SH) complexes form sandwich stacks with nitrile acceptors leading to extended-chain supramolecular assemblies, tbtrpy = 4,4′,4″-tert-Bu3-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine. Calculations with the extended Hückel tight-binding (EHTB) method are performed upon crystalline {[Pt (tbtrpy)(X)][TCNQ]}∞ species to analyze their electronic structure and consequent properties, TCNQ = 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane. The donor/acceptor extended chains in the solid state are predicted to exhibit metallic behavior with a large contribution from π and π* bands of TCNQ to the valence and conduction bands, respectively. Moreover, the valence band moves upward (i.e., to a less negative energy) for X = SH as compared to X = OH. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggest that this is due to large thiolate character in the HOMO of the square-planar donor complex, which also supports the experimental assignment of the electronic absorption bands and redox potentials. Calculations of infrared (νCN bands of TCNQ) and structural (CC bond lengths within TCNQ) data explain the metallic behavior of the stacks in terms of charge delocalization, leading to fractionally-charged species of the form [Pt(tbtrpy)X](1+δ)+[TCNQ](1+δ)- with δ > 0 and a greater δ value for X = SH vs OH.

Many organic molecules have strong absorption bands which can be accessed by ultraviolet short pulse lasers to produce efficient ionization.
