[HMIM][Br9] ([HMIM]=1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium) has been investigated by Raman spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction and NMR spectroscopy. Conductivity measurements show a high electrical conductivity like other polybromides.

Crystalline, electrically conductive, and intrinsically porous materials are rare. Layered 2D metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) break this trend. They are porous crystals that exhibit high electrical conductivity and are novel platforms for studying fundamentals of electricity and magnetism in two dimensions.1-8 Despite demonstrated applications,9-13 electrical transport in these remains poorly understood because of a lack of single crystal studies. Here, studies of single crystals of two 2D MOFs, Ni3(HITP)2 and Cu3(HHTP)2, uncover critical insights into their structure and transport. Conductivity measurements down to 0.3 K suggest metallicity for mesoscopic single crystals of Ni3(HITP)2, which contrasts with apparent activated conductivity for polycrystalline films. Microscopy studies further reveal that these MOFs are not isostructural as previously reported.14 Notably, single rods exhibit conductivities up to 150 S/cm, which persist even after prolonged exposure to the ambient. These single crystal studies confirm that 2D MOFs hold promise as molecularly tunable platforms for fundamental science and applications where porosity and conductivity are critical.<br>

ABSTRACTPolycrystalline samples of BaCexGd1-x03 have been prepared with 0.10 < x < 0.20. X-ray powder diffraction indicates the samples contain only one crystalline phase for doping levels < 0.15. Transmission electron microscopy analyses on the 10% doped sample revealed no glassy phases in the intergranular regions. Single crystal fibers were prepared by Laser Heated Pedestal Growth (LHPG) from the polycrystalline samples. Fiber growth was non-conservative thus the single crystal quality was limited. Preliminary conductivity measurements on the polycrystalline samples using AC impedance spectroscopy are compared with literature data.

ABSTRACTA pulsed proton beam, ˜200 ns in duration, has been used to melt and regrow single crystal silicon. The protons had an energy of 300 kev, yielding a measured energy density of 0.8–2.0 J/cm2. The method of transient conductivity has been used to determine the melt depths, melt durations, and regrowth velocities. The measured values for 2.0 J/cm2 were, respectively, 1.7 μm, 2 μsec, and 1.4 m/sec.Computer generated melt curves were compared to experiment with good agreement. The energy required to initiate melt was determined, and a linear dependence of melt depth with energy has been observed.
