Herringbone Structure

ABSTRACTWe have explored materials for organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) from the viewpoint of theoretical calculations. The herringbone structure, which realizes two-dimensional conduction, is investigated in detail. Transfer integrals (t) are calculated systematically as a function of the dihedral angle between the molecular planes (θ) and the displacement along the molecular long axis (D). Acenes, oligothiophenes, thienoacenes and tetrathiafulvalenes are investigated, and are discussed from the molecular orbital (MO) symmetry. Thienoacenes (nTAs) are particularly examined as a candidate of OFET materials from the calculations of transfer integrals and reorganization energies (λ) based on the energy levels and the MO symmetry. LUMO of nTAs have MO symmetry suitable for conduction, but these orbitals are usually not related to the conduction. We have investigated the electronic properties of the derivatives with dicarboximide moiety. nTA-tetracarboxydiimide is expected to show the herringbone structure and exhibit n-type transport from the properties of LUMO.

Catalytic activity of nickel-molybdenum catalysts for methanation of carbon monoxide and hydrogen was studied by means of differential scanning calorimetry. The activity of NiMoOx systems exceeds that of carrier-free nickel if x < 2, and is conditioned by the oxidation degree of molybdenum, changing in dependence on the composition in the region Mo-MoO2. The activity of the catalysts is adversely affected by irradiation by fast neutrons, dose 28.1 Gy, or by γ rays using doses in the region 0.8-52 kGy. The system is most susceptible to irradiation in the region of low concentrations of the minor component (about 1 mol.%). The dependence of changes in catalytic activity of γ-irradiated samples on the dose exhibits a maximum in the range of 2-5 kGy. The changes in catalytic activity are stimulated by the change of reactivity of the starting mixed oxides, leading to different kinetics of their reduction and modification of their adsorption properties. The irradiation of the catalysts results in lowered concentration of the active centres for the methanation reaction.

Al2o3 Catalyst

The kinetics of the reduction of nitrogen oxide by carbon monoxide on CuO/Al2O3 catalyst (8.36 mass % CuO) were determined at temperatures between 413 and 473 K. The reaction was found to be first order in NO and zero order in CO. The observed kinetics are consistent with a rate equation derived from a mechanism proposed on the basis of IR spectroscopic measurements.

Kinetics Of

Kinetics of CO methanation on a commercial Ni/SiO2 catalyst was evaluated at atmospheric pressure, between 528 and 550 K and for hydrogen to carbon monoxide molar ratios ranging from 3 : 1 to 200 : 1. The effect of reaction products on the reaction rate was also examined. Below 550 K, only methane was selectively formed. Above this temperature, the formation of carbon dioxide was also observed. The experimental data could be described by two modified Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetic models, based on hydrogenation of surface CO by molecularly or by dissociatively adsorbed hydrogen in the rate-determining step. Water reversibly lowered catalyst activity and its effect was more pronounced at higher temperature.

The kinetics of the liquid-like → solid-like 2D phase transition of adenine adsorbed at the Hg/aqueous solution interface is studied. Attention is focused on the effect of temperature on the rate of phase change; an increase in temperature is found to cause a decrease of transition rate.
