A new conjugated aromatic poly[(furan-2, 5-diyl)-co-(benzylidene)] has been prepared by polycondensation of benzaldehyde and furan catalyzed by Maghnite-H+. Maghnite-H+ is a montmorillonite sheet silicate clay, which exchanged with protons. These polymers can be dissolved in high polar solvents such as DMSO, DMF, THF, or CHCl3 A kind of band-gap conjugated poly[(furan-2, 5-diyl)-co-(benzylidene)] has been synthesized by a simple method and characterized by 1HNMR, 13CNMR, FT-IR, and UV-Vis. The result reveals that the band-gap of the PFB conjugated polymer has an optical band gap of 2.2 eV.

The electronic properties of Cu-doped lithium niobate (LiNbO3) systems are investigated by first-principles calculations. In this work, we focus on substitutionally Cu[Formula: see text]Li-doped LiNbO3 system with cuprous and cupric doping, which corresponds to the Li[Formula: see text]Cu[Formula: see text]NbO3 and Li[Formula: see text]Cu[Formula: see text]NbO3 [abbreviated as (Li, Cu I)NbO3 and (Li, Cu II)NbO3]. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that the electronic property of LiNbO3 is completely different from (Li, Cu I)NbO3 and (Li, Cu II)NbO3. The calculated band structure and density of state (DOS) of (Li, Cu I)NbO3 show a small band gap of 1.34[Formula: see text]eV and the top of valance band (VB) is completely composed of a doping energy level originating from Cu 3d filled orbital. However, the calculated band structure and DOS of (Li, Cu II)NbO3 show a relatively large band gap of 2.22[Formula: see text]eV and the top of VB is mainly composed of Cu 3d unfilled orbital and O 2p orbital.

In this study we have examined a series of strained heteropeitaxial GaAs/InGaAs/GaAs and InGaAs/GaAs structures, both on (001) GaAs substrates. These heterostructures are potentially very interesting from a device standpoint because of improved band gap properties (InAs has a much smaller band gap than GaAs so there is a large band offset at the InGaAs/GaAs interface), and because of the much higher mobility of InAs. However, there is a 7.2% lattice mismatch between InAs and GaAs, so an InxGa1-xAs layer in a GaAs structure with even relatively low x will have a large amount of strain, and misfit dislocations are expected to form above some critical thickness. We attempt here to correlate the effect of misfit dislocations on the electronic properties of this material.The samples we examined consisted of 200Å InxGa1-xAs layered in a hetero-junction bipolar transistor (HBT) structure (InxGa1-xAs on top of a (001) GaAs buffer, followed by more GaAs, then a layer of AlGaAs and a GaAs cap), and a series consisting of a 200Å layer of InxGa1-xAs on a (001) GaAs substrate.

We have investigated the effect of uniform plane strain on the electronic properties of monolayer 1T-TiS2using first-principles calculations. With the appropriate tensile strain, the material properties can be transformed from a semimetal to a direct band gap semiconductor.
