Precise equilibrium structure determination of hydrazoic acid (HN{sub 3}) by millimeter-wave spectroscopy

Journal Article Amberger, Brent K. ; Esselman, Brian J. ; Woods, R. Claude ; ... - Journal of Chemical Physics

The millimeter-wave spectrum of hydrazoic acid (HN{sub 3}) was analyzed in the frequency region of 235-450 GHz. Transitions from a total of 14 isotopologues were observed and fit using the A-reduced or S-reduced Hamiltonian. Coupled-cluster calculations were performed to obtain a theoretical geometry, as well as rotation-vibration interaction corrections. These calculated vibration-rotation correction terms were applied to the experimental rotational constants to obtain mixed theoretical/experimental equilibrium rotational constants (A{sub e}, B{sub e}, and C{sub e}). These equilibrium rotational constants were then used to obtain an equilibrium (R{sub e}) structure using a least-squares fitting routine. The R{sub e} structural parameters aremore »« less

Properties of low-pressure chemical vapor epitaxial GaN films grown using hydrazoic acid (HN{sub 3})

Journal Article Chtchekine, D G ; Fu, L P ; Gilliland, G D ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

We have grown high-quality GaN films on sapphire using a new nitrogen precursor, hydrazoic acid (HN{sub 3}). Films were grown at 600{degree}C on (0001) sapphire substrates in a low-pressure chemical-vapor-deposition system using triethylgallium and hydrazoic acid as precursors. Subsequently, we have conducted a complete study of the surface, structural, electrical, and optical properties of these GaN films, and our early results are very encouraging. All films were of wurtzite crystal structure, slightly polycrystalline, and {ital n} type at about 2{times}10{sup 17} cm{sup {minus}3}. We find the films to be efficient light emitters in the near-band edge region of the spectrum.more »« less

Calculation of the detonation state of HN₃ with quantum accuracy

Journal Article Pham, Cong Huy ; Lindsey, Rebecca K. ; Fried, Laurence E. ; ... - Journal of Chemical Physics

HN₃ is a unique liquid energetic material that exhibits ultrafast detonation chemistry and a transition to metallic states during detonation. We combine the Chebyshev interaction model for efficient simulation (ChIMES) many-body reactive force field and the extended-Lagrangian multiscale shock technique molecular dynamics method to calculate the detonation properties of HN₃ with the accuracy of Kohn–Sham density-functional theory. ChIMES is based on a Chebyshev polynomial expansion and can accurately reproduce density-functional theory molecular dynamics (DFT-MD) simulations for a wide range of unreactive and decomposition conditions of liquid HN₃. We show that addition of random displacement configurations and the energies of gas-phasemore »« less

Investigation of the detonation of HN/sub 3/ near limits

Journal Article Bazhenova, T V ; Coumbourieu, J ; Dupre, G ; ... - Combust., Explos. Shock Waves (Engl. Transl.); (United States)

The values of the detonation velocity of HN/sub 3/ in narrow tubes was measured and the time dependence of the heat flow into the tube walls and pressure profiles at three points along the tube length were obtained. A comparison of the results of the experiments with the theoretical calculations made on the assumption of various values of heat losses to the tube walls allows the authors to make conclusions about the location of the Chapman-Jouguet plane in which complete heat liberation occurs. On the basis of the experimental detonation velocity as a function of the heat release the heatmore »« less

EXPLOSIVE DECOMPOSITION AND ATOMIC FLAMES OF NORMAL AND HEAVY HYDRAZOIC ACID. THE TRANSITION $sup 3$II-$sup 3$$Sigma$ OF NH AND ND (in French)

Journal Article Pannetier, G ; Guenebaut, H - Journal de Chimie Physique (France) Merged with Rev. Gen. Colloides to form J. Chim. Phys. Rev. Gen. Colloides

A general study of the emission spectra obtained from explosive decomposition phenomena and from the reaction of N/sub 3/H and N/sub 3/D with atomic hydrogen is presented. The hands (1.0), (2.1), (2.2), (1.2), and (0.1) of the electronic transition /sup 3/II-/sup 3/ epsilon of the NH and ND radicals, as wellas the (3.2) band of ND appearing in the same reanction, were identified. The vibration analysis was made and confirmed by comparison of the experimental value of the isotopic displacement constant p with the theoretical value. The dissociation energy of the NH and ND radicals were deduced by the Birge-Sponermore »« less
