Spin–Spin Coupling: Two-Bond Coupling (Geminal Coupling)01:20

Spin–Spin Coupling: Two-Bond Coupling (Geminal Coupling)

1.1K
Two NMR-active nuclei bonded to a central atom can be involved in geminal or two-bond coupling. Geminal coupling is commonly seen between diastereotopic protons in chiral molecules and unsymmetrical alkenes, among others.
The central atom need not be NMR-active because its electrons are affected by the electron polarization of the spin-active atoms. However, spin information is transmitted less effectively than in one-bond coupling, and 2J values are usually weaker than 1J values. The energy of...

¹H NMR: Long-Range Coupling

1.9K
The coupling interactions of nuclei across four or more bonds are usually weak, with J values less than 1 Hz. While these are usually not observed in spectra, the presence of multiple bonds along the coupling pathway can result in observable long-range coupling.
In alkenes, spin information is communicated via σ–π overlap, as seen in allylic (four-bond) and homoallylic (five-bond) couplings. These coupling interactions are stronger when the σ bond is parallel to the alkene...

Spin–Spin Coupling: Three-Bond Coupling (Vicinal Coupling)01:22

Spin–Spin Coupling: Three-Bond Coupling (Vicinal Coupling)

1.1K
Vicinal or three-bond coupling is commonly observed between protons attached to adjacent carbons. Here, nuclear spin information is primarily transferred via electron spin interactions between adjacent C‑H bond orbitals. This generally favors the antiparallel arrangement of spins, so 3J values are usually positive.
The extent of coupling depends on the C‑C bond length, the two H‑C‑C angles, any electron-withdrawing substituents, and the dihedral angle between the...

Bewley Lattice Diagram01:12

Bewley Lattice Diagram

782
The Bewley lattice diagram, developed by L. V. Bewley, effectively organizes the reflections occurring during transmission-line transients. It visually represents how voltage waves propagate and reflect within a transmission line, making it easier to understand the complex interactions that occur.

Spin–Spin Coupling: One-Bond Coupling01:17

Spin–Spin Coupling: One-Bond Coupling

1.0K
Coupling interactions are strongest between NMR-active nuclei bonded to each other, where spin information can be transmitted directly through the pair of bonding electrons. While nuclei polarize their electrons to the opposite spins, the bonding electron pair has opposite spins. Configurations with antiparallel nuclear spins are expected to be lower in energy. When coupling makes antiparallel states more favorable, J is considered to have a positive value. The one-bond coupling constant, 1J,...

Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes

43.3K
Tetrahedral Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...

Area of Science:

  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • Materials Science
  • Quantum Chemistry

Background:

  • Specialized two-dimensional (2D) lattices like Kagome and Lieb typically exhibit only a single flat band.
  • Flat bands are crucial for observing strong electronic correlation effects in materials.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel 2D lattice structure, the quadrangular-star lattice (QSL), capable of hosting double flat bands.
  • To investigate the potential realization of QSL in real materials using 2D carbon allotropes.
  • To explore the magnetic properties of QSL-based carbon materials upon doping.

Main Methods:

  • Theoretical proposal of the quadrangular-star lattice (QSL).
  • Design and characterization of 2D carbon allotropes (CQSL-12, CQSL-20) for QSL realization.
  • Calculation of electronic band structures for proposed carbon materials.
  • Investigation of magnetic properties under various hole doping concentrations.

Main Results:

  • The proposed QSL structure successfully generates two coupling flat bands, unlike conventional lattices.
  • Calculated band structures of CQSL-12 and CQSL-20 confirm the presence of two coupling flat bands near the Fermi level.
  • Hole doping in these carbon allotropes induces significant magnetic properties.
  • Specific doping levels (one- and three-hole doping) lead to distinct distributions of magnetic moments on carbon rings and dimers.
  • Two-hole doping results in enhanced ferromagnetic characteristics with larger total magnetic moments.

Conclusions:

  • The quadrangular-star lattice offers a promising platform for exploring enhanced electronic correlations due to its double flat bands.
  • 2D carbon allotropes provide a viable route for experimentally realizing QSL structures.
  • Doping-induced magnetism in QSL carbon materials presents opportunities for novel spintronic applications.
