The interesting radical ion pair salts M(2)*(+)TCNQ*(-) (M=Li, Na, K) are a particular class of charge transfer complexes with excess electron. The ground states of these complexes are triplet. The C(2v) symmetry geometrical structures of the M(2)*(+)TCNQ*(-) (M=Li, Na, K) with all-real frequencies are obtained at the density functional theory (DFT) B3LYP/6-31+G(d) level. All calculations of electric properties in this paper have been carried out at the restricted open-shell second order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (ROMP2) level. Owing to existing excess electron (from the polarized alkali metal atoms) these charge transfer complexes exhibit large nonlinear optical (NLO) responses dominated by excess electron transitions.For these radical ion pair salts M(2)*(+)TCNQ*(-), the static first hyperpolarizabilities (beta(0)) are large. The order of beta(0) values is 19 203 (M=Li)<24 140 (M=Na) < 29 065 a.u. (M=K). Specially, the second hyperpolarizability (gamma(0)) of the complexes with excess electron is obtained for the first time. These static second hyperpolarizabilities are also large. The order of gamma(0) values is 2,213,006 (M=Li)<3,136,754 (M=Na)<7,905,623 a.u. (M = K). Among the three structures, K(2)*(+)TCNQ*(-) has the largest gamma(0) value to be 7.9 x 10(6) a.u. (3982 x 10(-36) esu), which is about 9 times larger than that of the intramolecular charge transfer complex sigma-arylvinylidene trans-[Ru(4-C[double bond, length as m-dash]CHC(6)H(4)C[triple bond, length as m-dash]CC(6)H(4)NO(2))Cl(dppm)(2)]PF(6) [Hurst et al., Organometallics, 2001, 20, 4664]. The present investigation provides a new kind of candidates for the high-performance NLO materials.
Eighteen structures of new organic alkalides (M+@n6adz)M'- (M, M'=Li, Na, K; n=2, 3) with the alkali-metal cation M+ lying near the center of the adz cage and the alkali-metal anion M'- located outside are obtained with all real frequencies. They exhibit very large static first hyperpolarizabilities (beta0) up to 3.2x10(5) au, which exceeds the record value of beta0=1.7x10(5) au for nonlinear optical compounds [Chem.-Eur. J. 1997, 3, 1091]. All potassides (M+@n6adz)K- (M=Li, Na, K; n=2, 3) have considerably large beta0 values (1.6x10(5)-3.2x10(5) au) much larger than the beta0 value (3.6x10(4) au) of the previously designed cuplike alkalide Li+(calix[4]pyrrole)K- [J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2006, 128, 1072]. This shows that the 26adz and 36adz cage complexants are preferable to cuplike calix[4]pyrrole complexant in enhancing the first hyperpolarizability. The effect of cage size of the complexant on the first hyperpolarizability is also presented here: in most cases, the smaller cage complexant corresponds to the larger beta0 value. Moreover, the crucial role by the alkali-metal anion in the large first hyperpolarizability of these alkalides is revealed. These results may provide new means for designing high-performance nonlinear optical materials.
A soluble all‐aromatic poly(2,5‐diphenyl‐1,4‐phenylenevinylene) (2,5‐DP‐PPV) is synthesized by utilizing aromatic phosphonium and aldehyde monomers through Wittig reaction. The H1 NMR and FTIR measurements indicate that over 50% content of cis‐vinylene units exist in polymer backbone. The diphenyl‐substituted benzaldehyde monomer plays an important role to enhance cis‐products (Z‐selectivity) in Wittig reactions. The twisted cis‐segments in polymer backbone reduce the interchain interactions and enhance the solubility of such all‐aromatic PPV derivative in common organic solvents. 2,5‐DP‐PPV exhibits good solubility in common organic solvents, such as tetrahydrofuran and chloroform. The polymer film exhibits a blue light emission (λmax = 485 nm) and a very high photoluminescence efficiency of 78%. The cis‐trans photo isomerization of this polymer in solution and the impact on the optical properties are also investigated. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The structure and aromaticity of a royal crown-shaped molecule Li(3)-N(3)-Be are studied at the CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVDZ level. This molecule is a charge-separated system and can be denoted as Li(3) (2+)N(3) (3-)Be(+). It is found that the Li(3) (2+) ring exhibits aromaticity mainly because the Li(3) (2+) ring can share the pi-electron with the N(3) (-3) ring. The 4n+2 electron counter rule can be satisfied for the Li(3) (2+) subunit if the shared pi valence electron of N(3) (3-) subunit is also taken into account. This new knowledge on aromaticity of a ring from the interactions between subunits is revealed first time in this paper. Li(3)-N(3)-Be can be also regarded as a molecule containing two superatoms (Li(3) and N(3)), which may be named as a "superomolecule." Li(3)-N(3)-Be is a new metal-nonmetal-metal type sandwich complex. The N(3) (3-) trianion in the middle repulses the electron clouds of the two metal subunits (mainly to the Li(3) superatom) to generate an excess electron, and thus Li(3)-N(3)-Be is also an electride. This phenomenon of the repulsion results in: (a) the HOMO energy level increased, (b) the electron cloud in HOMO distended, (c) the area of the negative NICS value extended, and (d) the VIE value lowered. So the superomolecule Li(3)-N(3)-Be is not only a new metal-nonmetal-metal type sandwich complex but also a new type electride, which comes from the interaction between the alkali superatom (Li(3)) and the nonmetal superatom (N(3)).
The nitrogen edge-doped effect on the structure, dipole moment, and first hyperpolarizability of the supershort single-walled carbon nanotube (5, 0) has been studied systematically. For the nitrogen edge-doped effect on the structure, the mean diameter on the nitrogen-doped side (D(u)) decreases as the number of doped-nitrogen (n) increases (4.044 (1) > 3.991 (2) > 3.941 (3) > 3.891 (4) > 3.844 A (5)). Significantly, the nitrogen edge-doped effects on the dipole moment and first hyperpolarizability are revealed for the first time and these new effects are dramatic for the supershort single-walled carbon nanotube (5, 0). Among the beta(0) values of these seven nitrogen-doped structures, the largest beta(0) (3155 au) is larger by almost 450 times than the very small beta(0) (7 au) of undoped structure (D(5h)). For nitrogen-doped structures, the order of the beta(0) values is 3155 (1) > 2677 (2A) approximately 2817 (2B) > 1465 (3A) approximately 1458 (3B) > 670 (4) > 254 au (5), which shows two interesting relationships between the beta(0) value and nitrogen-doped number: (1) the smaller the nitrogen-doped number, the larger the beta(0) value. (2) The structures with the same number of doped-nitrogen have almost the same beta(0) values (1465 for 3A and 1458 au for 3B). As for the frequency-dependent beta (-omega; omega, 0) and beta (-2omega; omega, omega), the dependence on the nitrogen-doped number (n) is similar to the case of static beta(0). For beta (-2omega; omega, omega) values at omega = 0.005 au are 3220 (1) > 2720 (2A) approximately = 2862 (2B) > 1480 (3A) approximately = 1477 (3B) > 676 (4) > 256 au (5). In addition, the important monotonic dependences of the beta value on the D(u) and electronic spatial extent
It is the basis for increasing attraction of rail transit and maximizing the attraction of public transport to focus on summarizing the pattern and experience of growing rail passenger flow, and studying the characteristics of trip assignment. This paper studied specifically on the passenger assembling of the urban rail transit platform, and designed the calculation methods about assembling passengers on platform through the analysis of passenger flow characteristics. Based on the specific situation of the subway of Beijing south station, this paper analyzed the assembling of platform and obtained assembling data under different conditions. The result shows that, in order to smooth the assembling of platform, we could reduce the train arrival time-gap, stagger the up and down train’s arrival time and increase their arrival time-gap in a proper way.
The impact property of injection-molded plastic components is an important factor to judge their quality. The aim of this paper is to study the effects of processing conition on impact property of injection-molded polycarbonate (PC). By changing the processing conitions such as injection molding parameters and thermal treatment, different impact samples were acquired. Then, Izod and Charpy notch impact tests were carried out to research the relation between the impact strength and the prcessing conditions. The results imply that different processing conitions will lead to different changes of impact property.
