Anhydrous manganese hypophosphite, [Mn(H2PO2)(2)](n)center dot(DMF)(0.11) (I) has been isolated under solvothermal conditions from the reaction of hypophosphorous acid (H3PO2) and MnCl2 center dot 4H(2)O in a mixture of DMF/EtOH/H2O (8:1:1; v/v) in 60% yield. The compound is characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, PXRD, sin...
The first examples of homo- and hetero-polymetallic organophosphates of gadolinium are reported. Magnetic measurements reveal a higher magnetic entropy change for the isotropic {Gd-5(III)} complex (25.8 J kg(-1) K-1) as compared to the heterometallic {(Gd4CoII)-Co-III} complex (20.3 J kg(-1) K-1), which is attributable to a change in magnetic coupl...

Substantial research activity is currently invested in the pursuit of next generation cathode materials for rechargeable Li-ion batteries. We carry out an initial assessment of the suitability of a recently described empirical potential [J. Phys. Chem. B 2006, 110, 11780] as a rapid, portable, and at least qualitatively accurate computational tool ...

Ceramics with the sodium zirconium phosphate or NZP type structure have potential as nuclear waste form and inert matrix materials. For both applications the material will be subjected to self-radiation damage from α-decay of the incorporated actinides. In this study, ion-beam irradiation using Au- and He-ions has been used to simulate the conseque...
