Significant effects of the additive of Ni on the ZnAl2O4 structure were observed. For all the samples, the ZnO phase was detected as the second phase, and the third phase of NiO was observed for two samples having the highest Ni content. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results showed that the crystallinity percent, lattice parameter, and volume of the unit cell decreased continuously with adding of Ni. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra verify the formation of the ZnAl2O4 structure for all the samples. The thermal behaviors, including the recrystallization temperature and mass losses, of the ZnAl2O4 structure, were also affected by the amount of Ni. The morphology varied with adding of Ni. These properties were not reported before.

Research paper thumbnail of Quantum Effects on the D + H+3 → H2D++ H Deuteration Reaction and Isotopic Variants

The Journal of Physical Chemistry A, 2019

The title reaction and its isotopic variants are studied using quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) (... more The title reaction and its isotopic variants are studied using quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) (without taking into account corrections to account for the possible zero point energy breakdown) and ring polymer molecular dynamics (RPMD) methods with a full dimensional and accurate potential energy surface which presents an exchange barrier of approximately 0.144 eV. The QCT rate constant increases when the temperature decreases from 1500 to 10 K. On the contrary, the RPMD rate constant decreases with decreasing temperature, in semi-quantitative agreement with recent experimental results. The present RPMD results are in between the thermal and translational experimental rate constants, extracted from the measured data to eliminate the initial vibrational excitation of H + 3 , obtained in an arc discharge. The difference between the present RPMD results and experimental values is attributed to the possible existence of non thermal vibrational excitation of H + 3 , not completely removed by the semiempirical model used for the analysis of the experimental results. Also, it is found that below 200 K the RPMD trajectories are trapped, forming long lived collision complexes, with lifetimes longer than 1 ns. These collision complexes can fragment by either redissociating back to reactants or react to products, in the two cases tunneling through the centrifugal and reaction barriers, respectively. The contribution of the formation of the complex to the total deuteration rate should be calculated with more accurate quantum methods, as it has been found recently for reactions of larger systems, and the present four atoms system is a good candidate to benchmark the adequacy of RPMD method at temperatures below 100 K.

A pure and two Zn-containing MASs (e.g. MgAl1.93Zn0.07O4 and MgAl1.86Zn0.14O4) were synthesized for this purpose via a wet chemical method, and the as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy techniques. It was found that the crystal structure, thermal properties and morphology of the MAS system change with the increase in the amount of Zn. MgO phase formation was observed. The values of the lattice parameter, unit cell volume and crystallite size increased, and the crystallinity percentage decreased. The morphology was also affected by adding of Zn.

Research paper thumbnail of Structural and optical characterization of Sm-doped ZnO nanoparticles

Both pristine and Sm-doped ZnO with a nominal doping concentration of 1, 2 and 4% of Sm using a simple wet-chemical synthetic route followed by calcination at a high temperature of 900 • C, are synthesized. Structural investigations are primarily conducted using X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) and scanning electron microscopy techniques. Evolution of structural parameters (unit cell parameters, average crystallite size, crystallinity percentage, lattice strain, stress, energy density and atomic packing factor) upon Sm doping is investigated together with Rietveld refinement and Le Bail analysis techniques. XRPD data confirmed that the synthesized nanostructures crystallize in a wurtzite hexagonal structure, the dopant Sm is incorporated into the Zn lattice and the annealing treatment plays a crucial role in determining the structural and optical properties of RE-metal-doped nanoparticles. Values of the optical band gap energy estimated from optical absorbance measurements reveal a widening of the band gap.

Research paper thumbnail of Formation of interstellar SH+from vibrationally excited H2: Quantum study of S++ H2⇄ SH++ H reaction and inelastic collision

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2019

The rate constants for the formation, destruction, and collisional excitation of SH+are calculate... more The rate constants for the formation, destruction, and collisional excitation of SH+are calculated from quantum mechanical approaches using two new SH+2potential energy surfaces (PESs) of4A″ and2A″ electronic symmetry. The PESs were developed to describe all adiabatic states correlating to the SH+(3Σ−) + H(2S) channel. The formation of SH+through the S++ H2reaction is endothermic by ≈9860 K, and requires at least two vibrational quanta on the H2molecule to yield significant reactivity. Quasi-classical calculations of the total formation rate constant for H2(v = 2) are in very good agreement with the quantum results above 100 K. Further quasi-classical calculations are then performed forv = 3, 4, and 5 to cover all vibrationally excited H2levels significantly populated in dense photodissociation regions (PDR). The new calculated formation and destruction rate constants are two to six times larger than the previous ones and have been introduced in the Meudon PDR code to simulate the p...

Ceramics International, 2017

Computed data show that the vibrational modes have a larger contribution towards the partition function of HAp compared to the rotational and translational contributions. X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy have been applied for HAp in the temperature range from 730 °C to 1030 °C at steps of 100 °C. Temperature dependent density functional theory (DFT), B3LYP, and Ground State Hartree-Fock (HF) with 6-311G basis set calculations were also applied to HAp to calculate FTIR spectra, HOMO, and LUMO energies, and density of states (DOS), and the results have been compared to experimental findings. The present results underline that experimental measurements and theoretical calculations of unit cell parameters, and the intensities of most of the FTIR data for HAp are nearly independent on temperature.

Research paper thumbnail of The effect of simulating body fluid on the structural properties of hydroxyapatite synthesized in the presence of citric acid

Progress in Biomaterials, 2016

The crystallite dimensions, lattice parameters, unit cell volume, crystallinity percentage and Ca/P molar ratio were found to be affected by the CA content. To investigate the influence of CA on the bioactive properties of the HAp samples and to determine the optimum amount of CA, in vitro soaking tests in simulated body fluid (SBF) were performed. Although the samples' morphology was found to be affected by neither the amount of CA nor the soaking time in SBF, the soaking results revealed that the maximum changes in the Ca/P ratio were found for the HAp samples prepared in the presence of the highest amounts of CA, which pointed out to the highest bioactivity of these samples.

Research paper thumbnail of Hyperfine excitation of OH+by H

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016

Accurate determination of their abundance rely on their collisional rate coefficients with atomic hydrogen and electrons. In this paper, we derive OH +-H fine and hyperfine-resolved rate coefficients by extrapolating recent quantum wave packet calculations for the OH + + H collisions, including inelastic and exchange processes. The extrapolation method used is based on the infinite order sudden approach. State-to-state rate coefficients between the first 22 fine levels and 43 hyperfine levels of OH + were obtained for temperatures ranging from 10 to 1000 K. Fine structure-resolved rate coefficients present a strong propensity rule in favour of j = N transitions. The j = F propensity rule is observed for the hyperfine transitions. The new rate coefficients will help significantly in the interpretation of OH + spectra from photon-dominated region (PDR), and enable the OH + molecule to become a powerful astrophysical tool for studying the oxygen chemistry.

Research paper thumbnail of Quantum and quasi-classical calculations for the S(+) + H2(v,j) → SH(+)(v',j') + H reactive collisions

Physical chemistry chemical physics : PCCP, Jan 20, 2016

State-to-state cross-sections for the S(+) + H2(v,j) → SH(+)(v',j') + H endothermic react... more State-to-state cross-sections for the S(+) + H2(v,j) → SH(+)(v',j') + H endothermic reaction are obtained using quantum wave packet (WP) and quasi-classical (QCT) methods for different initial ro-vibrational H2(v,j) over a wide range of translation energies. The final state distribution as a function of the initial quantum number is obtained and discussed. Additionally, the effect of the internal excitation of H2 on the reactivity is carefully studied. It appears that energy transfer among modes is very inefficient that vibrational energy is the most favorable for the reaction, and rotational excitation significantly enhances the reactivity when vibrational energy is sufficient to reach the product. Special attention is also paid to an unusual discrepancy between classical and quantum dynamics for low rotational levels while agreement improves with rotational excitation of H2. An interesting resonant behaviour found in WP calculations is also discussed and associated with th...

Research paper thumbnail of Quantum Effects on the D + H+3 → H2D++ H Deuteration Reaction and Isotopic Variants

The QCT rate constant increases when the temperature decreases from 1500 to 10 K. On the contrary, the RPMD rate constant decreases with decreasing temperature, in semi-quantitative agreement with recent experimental results. The present RPMD results are in between the thermal and translational experimental rate constants, extracted from the measured data to eliminate the initial vibrational excitation of H + 3 , obtained in an arc discharge. The difference between the present RPMD results and experimental values is attributed to the possible existence of non thermal vibrational excitation of H + 3 , not completely removed by the semiempirical model used for the analysis of the experimental results. Also, it is found that below 200 K the RPMD trajectories are trapped, forming long lived collision complexes, with lifetimes longer than 1 ns. These collision complexes can fragment by either redissociating back to reactants or react to products, in the two cases tunneling through the centrifugal and reaction barriers, respectively. The contribution of the formation of the complex to the total deuteration rate should be calculated with more accurate quantum methods, as it has been found recently for reactions of larger systems, and the present four atoms system is a good candidate to benchmark the adequacy of RPMD method at temperatures below 100 K.

Both pristine and Sm-doped ZnO with a nominal doping concentration of 1, 2 and 4% of Sm using a simple wet-chemical synthetic route followed by calcination at a high temperature of 900 • C, are synthesized. Structural investigations are primarily conducted using X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) and scanning electron microscopy techniques. Evolution of structural parameters (unit cell parameters, average crystallite size, crystallinity percentage, lattice strain, stress, energy density and atomic packing factor) upon Sm doping is investigated together with Rietveld refinement and Le Bail analysis techniques. XRPD data confirmed that the synthesized nanostructures crystallize in a wurtzite hexagonal structure, the dopant Sm is incorporated into the Zn lattice and the annealing treatment plays a crucial role in determining the structural and optical properties of RE-metal-doped nanoparticles. Values of the optical band gap energy estimated from optical absorbance measurements reveal a widening of the band gap.

X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy have been applied for HAp in the temperature range from 730 °C to 1030 °C at steps of 100 °C. Temperature dependent density functional theory (DFT), B3LYP, and Ground State Hartree-Fock (HF) with 6-311G basis set calculations were also applied to HAp to calculate FTIR spectra, HOMO, and LUMO energies, and density of states (DOS), and the results have been compared to experimental findings. The present results underline that experimental measurements and theoretical calculations of unit cell parameters, and the intensities of most of the FTIR data for HAp are nearly independent on temperature.

The crystallite dimensions, lattice parameters, unit cell volume, crystallinity percentage and Ca/P molar ratio were found to be affected by the CA content. To investigate the influence of CA on the bioactive properties of the HAp samples and to determine the optimum amount of CA, in vitro soaking tests in simulated body fluid (SBF) were performed. Although the samples' morphology was found to be affected by neither the amount of CA nor the soaking time in SBF, the soaking results revealed that the maximum changes in the Ca/P ratio were found for the HAp samples prepared in the presence of the highest amounts of CA, which pointed out to the highest bioactivity of these samples.

Accurate determination of their abundance rely on their collisional rate coefficients with atomic hydrogen and electrons. In this paper, we derive OH +-H fine and hyperfine-resolved rate coefficients by extrapolating recent quantum wave packet calculations for the OH + + H collisions, including inelastic and exchange processes. The extrapolation method used is based on the infinite order sudden approach. State-to-state rate coefficients between the first 22 fine levels and 43 hyperfine levels of OH + were obtained for temperatures ranging from 10 to 1000 K. Fine structure-resolved rate coefficients present a strong propensity rule in favour of j = N transitions. The j = F propensity rule is observed for the hyperfine transitions. The new rate coefficients will help significantly in the interpretation of OH + spectra from photon-dominated region (PDR), and enable the OH + molecule to become a powerful astrophysical tool for studying the oxygen chemistry.

Research paper thumbnail of Quantum and quasi-classical calculations for the S(+) + H2(v,j) → SH(+)(v',j') + H reactive collisions

Physical chemistry chemical physics : PCCP, Jan 20, 2016

State-to-state cross-sections for the S(+) + H2(v,j) → SH(+)(v',j') + H endothermic react... more State-to-state cross-sections for the S(+) + H2(v,j) → SH(+)(v',j') + H endothermic reaction are obtained using quantum wave packet (WP) and quasi-classical (QCT) methods for different initial ro-vibrational H2(v,j) over a wide range of translation energies. The final state distribution as a function of the initial quantum number is obtained and discussed. Additionally, the effect of the internal excitation of H2 on the reactivity is carefully studied. It appears that energy transfer among modes is very inefficient that vibrational energy is the most favorable for the reaction, and rotational excitation significantly enhances the reactivity when vibrational energy is sufficient to reach the product. Special attention is also paid to an unusual discrepancy between classical and quantum dynamics for low rotational levels while agreement improves with rotational excitation of H2. An interesting resonant behaviour found in WP calculations is also discussed and associated with th...
