Table 1 Hsts some of the physical properties of duoroboric acid. It is a strong acid in water, equal to most mineral acids in strength and has a p p o of —4.9 as compared to —4.3 for nitric acid (9). The duoroborate ion contains a neady tetrahedral boron atom with almost equidistant B—F bonds in the sohd state. Although lattice effects and hydrogen bonding distort the ion, the average B—F distance is 0.138 nm the F—B—F angles are neady the theoretical 109° (10,11). Raman spectra on molten, ie, Hquid NaBF agree with the symmetrical tetrahedral stmcture (12).

Molecules vibrate at fundamental frequencies that are usually in the mid-infrared. Some overtone and combination transitions occur at shorter wavelengths. Because infrared photons have enough energy to excite rotational motions also, the ir spectmm of a gas consists of rovibrational bands in which each vibrational transition is accompanied by numerous simultaneous rotational transitions. In condensed phases the rotational stmcture is suppressed, but the vibrational frequencies remain highly specific, and information on the molecular environment can often be deduced from hnewidths, frequency shifts, and additional spectral stmcture owing to phonon (thermal acoustic mode) and lattice effects.

In this contribution we will deal with electron-electron correlation in solids and how to learn about these by means of inelastic X-ray scattering both in the regime of small and large momentum transfer. We will compare the predictions of simple models (free electron gas, jellium model) and more sophisticated ones (calculations using the self-energy influenced spectral weight function) to experimental results. In a last step, lattice effects will be included in the theoretical treatment. 

Figure 11 shows the influence of correlation and lattice effects on the shape of n (k) for the case of lithium. The short dashed line shows (k) according to the jellium model with no electron-electron interaction included. Inclusion of correlation effects can be described using a model-w(k) ... 

We find the second derivative of the Compton profile for q (111), (100) to be broadened beyond the experimental resolution with an additional AE 5eV which is due to the convolution with A(k+q, E + /m), as described in the previous section. For q (110), we find an additional broadening of the second derivative of the order of some eV which we ascribe to lattice effects on the electron correlation, predicted by the GWA-calculation. 

To conclude, we have demonstrated how inelastic X-ray scattering experiments, both for small and large momentum transfer, can provide information about electron-electron correlation and lattice effects on correlation. 

A further example illustrating the importance of lattice effects on the SCO behaviour of these trinuclear compounds is given by [Fe3(iptrz)f,(H20)6] (CF3S03)6 (iptrz = 4-(isopropyl)-1,2,4-triazole). A strong influence of the ST of the central Fe(II) ion on both external Fe(II) ions has been found by Mossbauer spectroscopy, as detected by the perturbation of their quadru-pole interactions [15]. The nature of this phenomenon has been proposed to... 

Spin-spin fluctuations can compete with spin-lattice effects an energy hwic can be supplied by a phonon as well as by a spin fluctuation in the dipolar field. A simple thermodynamic view is shown in Fig. 8. For convenience only two distinct carbon... 

Below roughening, pronounced lattice effects show up in the simulations, as in the case of wires. The meandering of the top(bottom) steps and the islanding on the top(bottom) terrace leads to slow and fast time scales in the decay of the amplitude. The profile shapes near the top(bottom) broaden at integer values of the amplitude and acquire a nearly sinusoidal form in between. Again, these features are not captured by the continuum theory. For evaporation kinetics, continuum theory suggests that the decay of the profile amplitude z scales like z t,L) = where g =...

X-Ray diffraction data give the atomic coordinates and thereby the conformations of molecules in the crystalline phase. If many structures of a given type are known, which unfortunately is rarely the case for medium rings, it is likely that an excellent picture of the global conformational energy minimum will be obtained as lattice effects should be more or less random. 

In Fig. 14, the rf dependence of the carbon T1(J times are shown. These Tle s were normalized by TCH values at 1 kHz from previous Fig. 13. Only data after 500 ps were used for determination of T1(J. Only a very weak rf field dependence was seen. It was concluded that at room temperature and above 40 kHz fields that the C-13 T1 values are determined by spin-lattice effects as well as by spin-spin events. The C-13 T1 of oriented PE, at room temperature, even up to 80 kHz rf fields, are dominated by spin-spin effects. 

The magnetic properties of (68) are still under discussion. Dependent upon the method of preparation the complex with R = Me is high spin or has a mixture of different spin states, S = <- induced by lattice effects. For R = Et only the spin state mixture is found, whereas the compounds with R2 = (CH2)4 and (CH2)5 are high spin.5...
