In a paper recently communicated to the Royal Society, experiments dealing with the absorption spectra of several metals were described, in which it was found that bismuth vapour shows both lines and bands in absorption. The banded spectrum consists of three groups of bands, each group consisting of a number of bands degraded towards the red, the group of bands in the visible region appearing at high temperatures. In the above experiments it was hoped that by raising the temperature of the absorption chamber sufficiently high, and raising the absorption in the lines of the several bands, it might be possible to detect a fine structure in some of these bands. Accordingly, the author modified the furnace previously used so as to blow through it a larger quantity of compressed air, and succeeded finally by using coke and this furnace to obtain a temperature of about 1500°C. to 1600°C. At this temperature the vapour emitted a fluorescent radiation orange yellow in colour.

Pyridine N-oxide complexes having the composition ZrO(Py•O)6(ClO4)2, Th(Py•O)8(ClO4)4, and UO2(Py•O)5(ClO4)2 have been prepared. The infrared and electronic absorption spectra show that the bonding between the metal and pyridine N-oxide in the complexes has occurred by donation of the lone pair of p-electrons on oxygen to the metal, and that the π-bond character of NO group increases in the complexes as uranyl < thorium < zirconyl. The decrease in the vibrational structure of the UO22+ spectrum in the visible region indicates strong coordination of pyridine N-oxide to the uranyl group. The decomposition temperatures of zirconyl, thorium, and uranyl complexes are 307, 350, and 319 °C respectively.

Abstract In this work, we systematically investigate the impacts of electron-donor based on Triphenylamine (TPA). The Geometry structure, energy levels, light-harvesting ability and ultraviolet-visible absorption spectra were calculated by using Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Time-Dependent-DFT. The electron injection rate of the TPA-N(CH3)2 based dyes has 0.71 eV for high among the dye sensitizer. The First and Second order Hyperpolarizability of the 11.95 × 10−30 e.s.u and 12195.54 a.u, respectively for TPA-N(CH3)2 based dye. The calculated absorption spectra were showed in the ultra-violet visible region for power conversion region. The study reveals that the electron transfer character of TPA-N(CH3)2 based dyes can be made suitable for applications in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells.

Background: ZnS nanoparticles (NPs) are attractive for quantum dots applications because they consist of abundant and non-toxic elements. Their major drawback is that they absorb in the UV region, ultimately limiting their applications. Objective: In the present study, 1D and 2D ZnS NPs have been found. The goal of this study is to find NPs that have absorption in the visible spectrum. Methods: Calculations based on the Density Functional Theory (DFT) have been used to find the optimized geometries. Their absorption spectra have been calculated with the Time-Dependent DFT. Results: Several shapes were examined, such as nanorod, and it is observed that these shapes move the absorption spectra in lower energies, into the visible spectrum, while the 3D NPs have absorption edges in the UV region. Conclusion: NPs with the shape of nanorod in different directions showed that their absorption spectra moved to lower energies well inside the visible spectrum with significantly high oscillator strength. In contrast with the mostly used CdSe NPs, the ZnS NPs are made from more abundant and less toxic elements. Therefore, by making them absorb in the visible region, they may find significant applications in solar cells and other photonic applications.
