Squeezing clathrate cages to host trivalent rare-earth guests

Program Document Wang, Jian ; He, Yuping ; Mordvinova, Natalia E. ; ...

Strike difference of the trivalent rare-earth cations from their alkali and alkaline-earth peers is in the presence of localized 4f-electrons and strong spin-orbit coupling. Placing trivalent rare-earth cations inside the fullerene molecules or in between the blocks of itinerant magnetic intermetallics gave rise to plethora of fascinating properties and materials. A long-time missing but hardly desired piece is the semiconducting or metallic compound where rare-earth cations are situated inside the oversized polyhedral cages of three-dimensional framework. In this work we present a synthesis of such compounds, rare-earth containing clathrates Ba_8-xR_xCu₁₆P₃₀. The unambiguous proofs of their composition and crystal structure weremore »« less
Clathrate BaNi₂P₄: An Interplay of Heat and Charge Transport Due to Strong Host–Guest Interactions

Journal Article Wang, Jian ; Dolyniuk, Juli-Anna ; Krenkel, Elizabeth H. ; ... - Chemistry of Materials

Heat and charge transport properties of the metallic unconventional clathrate BaNi2P4, hosting Ba cations in oversized Ni8P16 cages, are investigated. A novel method of single-crystal growth was developed, yielding 2–3 mm sized crystals of BaNi2P4. We also developed a setup to accurately measure thermal conductivity and electrical resistivity of the synthesized single crystals in a wide temperature range avoiding crystal remounting. BaNi2P4 has a metallic temperature dependence of its electrical resistivity (decreasing with decreasing temperature) and manifests an unconventional T2 power law for 50 K < T < 300 K; below 50 K, the power-law exponent increases gradually such thatmore »« less

Guest-Host Interactions in Clathrate Hydrates: Benchmark MP2 and CCSD(T)/CBS Binding Energies of CH4, CO2 and H2S in (H2O)20 Cages

Journal Article Heindel, Joseph ; Herman, Kristina M. ; Apra, Edoardo ; ... - The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters

We present benchmark binding energies of naturally occurring gas molecules CH4, CO2, and H2S in the small cage, namely the pentagonal dodecahedron (512) (H2O)20, which is one of the constituent cages of the 3 major lattices (structures I, II and H) of clathrate hydrates. These weak interactions require higher levels of electron correlation and converge slowly with increasing basis set to the Complete Basis Set (CBS) limit, necessitating the use of large basis sets up to the augcc- pV5Z and subsequent correction for Basis Set Superposition Error (BSSE). For the host hollow (H2O)20 cages we have identified a most stablemore »« less

Controlling superstructural ordering in the clathrate-I Ba₈M₁₆P₃₀ (M = Cu, Zn) through the formation of metal–metal bonds

Journal Article Dolyniuk, J. ; Whitfield, P. S. ; Lee, K. ; ... - Chemical Science

Order–disorder–order phase transitions in the clathrate-I Ba₈Cu₁₆P₃₀ were induced and controlled by aliovalent substitutions of Zn into the framework. Unaltered Ba₈Cu₁₆P₃₀ crystallizes in an ordered orthorhombic (Pbcn) clathrate-I superstructure that maintains complete segregation of metal and phosphorus atoms over 23 different crystallographic positions in the clathrate framework. The driving force for the formation of this Pbcn superstructure is the avoidance of Cu–Cu bonds. This superstructure is preserved upon aliovalent substitution of Zn for Cu in Ba₈Cu_16–xZn_xP₃₀ with 0 < x < 1.6 (10% Zn/M_total), but vanishes at greater substitution concentrations. Higher Zn concentrations (up to 35% Zn/M_total) resulted in themore »« less
