Luminescent coordination polymers based on Ca²⁺ and octahedral cluster anions [{M₆Clⁱ₈}Clᵃ₆}²⁻ (M = Mo, W) : synthesis and thermal stability studies

Luminescent coordination polymers (CPs) based of inexpensive stable precursors are attractive materials for applications. Here we report the synthesis and evaluation of the stability and photophysical characteristics of the first examples of phosphorescent CPs based on octahedral molybdenum and tungsten cluster anions. Specifically 1D CP trans-[{Ca(OPPh₃)₄}{{M₆Clⁱ₈}Clᵃ₆}]∞ (M = Mo, W) can be obtained either directly at increased temperature or via intermediate phases [cis-Ca(OPPh₃)₄(H₂O)₂][{M₆Clⁱ₈}Clᵃ₆]∙2CH₃CN that are stable at room-temperature, but convert to the titled CP at temperatures above 100 °C

The frequency-domain method of calculation for the pulsed electromagnetic field in a conductive ferromagnetic plate

The technique for parameters determination of magnetic skin effect on ferromagnetic plate at a specified pulse of magnetic field intensity on the plate surface is proposed. It is based on a frequency-domain method and could be applied for a pulsing transformer, a dynamoelectric pulse generator and a commutating inductor that contains an imbricated core. Due to this technique, such plate parameters as specific heat loss energy, the average power of this energy and the plate temperature raise, the magnetic flux attenuation factor and the plate q-factor could be calculated. These parameters depend on the steel type, the amplitude, the rms value, the duration and the form of the magnetic field intensity impulse on the plate surface. The plate thickness is defined by the value of the flux attenuation factor and the plate q-factor that should be maximal. The reliability of the proposed technique is built on a common frequency-domain usage applicable for pulse transient study under zero boundary conditions of the electric circuit and the conformity of obtained results with the sinusoidal steady-state mode

Origin of Natural Gas of the Giant Urengoy Deposit

Рассмотрены геологическое строение и происхождение мелового (неоком-сеноманского) комплекса Уренгойского месторождения Надым-Пурской нефтегазоносной области. Характерной особенностью этой области является развитие мощного неоком-сеноманского комплекса. Данная территория в период от валанжина до сеномана испытывала преимущественно континентальный режим осадконакопления, когда существовали благоприятные условия для захоронения большого количества растительных остатков исходного материала для массы угольного вещества, содержащегося в породах комплекса. Наличие повышенных концентраций угольного вещества явилось важнейшим генетическим признаком, по которому континентальная толща апт-сеноманского возраста отнесена к типичной угленосной формации. В работе приведена вертикальная и региональная зональность распределения фазового состояния углеводородов, позволяющая прогнозировать фазовое состояние, количественную и качественную характеристики скоплений углеводородов.This article presents the discussion on the geological structure and origin of the large Cretaceous Neocomian-Cenomanian Complex, which is characteristic for Urengoy deposit of Nadym-Pur Oil and Gas Province. In period from the Valanginian to Cenomanian, this territory experienced predominantly continental depositional regime, provided the favorable conditions for accumulation of large amount of plant remnants, which were a raw material for the coal strata of the complex. The presence of high concentration of organic substance was the most important genetic characteristics of Aptian-Cenomanian continental strata that constitute a typical coal-bearing formation. The analysis of obtained information allowed to predict the phase state of hydrocarbon accumulation at the area

PROVENANCES AND SEDIMENTATION SETTINGS OF THE VENDIAN TERRIGENIC ROCKS OF THE SOUTHERN PART OF NEPA-BOTUOBA ANTECLISE (SIBERIAN PLATFORM)

This paper presents the results of petrographic, lithogeochemical, and U-Pb geochronological studies of detrital zircons in deep core sediments from the Vendian terrigenous sequences of the Nepa and Tira formations in the interior of the Siberian Platform. The section of the Nepa formation is characterized by a terrigenous sediment, the Tira Formation is composed mainly of carbonate rocks. The terrigenous rocks of the Nepa formation are composed of ill-sorted and poorly rounded clasts. Towards the higher part of the section of the Tira formation, there is observed an increase in the degree of sorting and roundness of detrital grains. It has been established that clastic rocks of the lower Nepа subformation are the products derived from rocks of mixed (acidic, basic) composition. The terrigenous rocks of the upper Nepa Subformation and the Tira formation accumulated mainly due to acid decomposition of rocks. The U-Pb (LA-ICP-MS) geochronological studies of detrital zircons from terrigenous rocks of the Nepa and Tira formations led to the conclusion that the sedimentary basin of these formations was contributred to by both the Archean-Early Proterozoic rocks in the basement of the Siberian Platform and the adjacent areas of the Central Asian foldbelt. It is assumed that the sediments of the lower Nepa subformation deposited in the residual basin, formed by joining of terrains and island arcs in the Paleoasian Ocean to the southern margin of the Siberian Platform during the Vendian accretionary-collisional events. This was followed by a transformation into a peripheral sedimentary basin and an occurrence of a transgression of the sea, which favored the accumulation of terrigenous-carbonate rocks of the Tira formation

LITHOLOGICAL AND FACIAL FEATURES, COMPOSITION, AND SEDIMENTATION CONDITIONS OF TERRIGENOUS-CARBONATE ROCKS OF THE MOTY GROUP (SHAMAN CLIFF, IRKUTSK REGION)

We have studied terrigenous-carbonate rocks in the area near the Sayan mountains in the Irkutsk Region (Russia), specifically at the Shaman Cliff, being the stratotype area of rocks that belong to the Moty group. The cliff’s lower part is composed of sandstones, which fragments gradually decrease in size upward the cross-section. The middle and upper parts are composed of sandy dolomites and dolomites, respectively. In terms of material characteristics, the terrigenous rocks correspond to arkoses. According to the genetic typification, the arkoses are composed of destructed primary igneous rocks. The terrigenous-carbonate rocks contain a carbonate component that gradually increases in the upper part of the cross-section. In the Shaman Cliff cross-section, we distinguish 32 lithological units and eight lithologicalgenetic types of deposits. Paleogeodynamic conditions are reconstructed for the formation of the sedimentation basin. Our study of the Shaman formation reveals specific features of the lithological facies, which suggest that these rocks accumulated in a coastal environment affected by tides. In the study area, clastic materials were mainly removed from an orogen that formed due to the Vendian accretion-collision events in the southern folded frame of the Siberian platform. Dolomites composing the upper part of the cliff are attributed to the Irkutsk formation of the Moty group. Their lithological features give evidence of shallow-marine conditions of their formation, without any supply of clastic material, which contributed to mass dispersal of the Cambrian biota described in [Marusin et al., 2021]. It is our first initiative to draw a boundary between the Shaman and Irkutsk formations of the Moty Group along the base of the carbonate eluvial breccia unit that marks the stratigraphic break. In the cross-section, this boundary represents the border between the Upper Vendian and Lower Cambrian.Our conclusions are generally consistent with the ideas of most researchers about the Late Vendian evolution of the southern margin of the Siberian platform. The results of our study can be used in further investigation of this area and provide a basis for correlating the studied strata with the same-age reference cross-sections of other regions in Siberia

Light-induced sulfur transport inside single-walled carbon nanotubes

This article belongs to the Section 2D and Carbon Nanomaterials.Filling of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and extraction of the encapsulated species from their cavities are perspective treatments for tuning the functional properties of SWCNT-based materials. Here, we have investigated sulfur-modified SWCNTs synthesized by the ampoule method. The morphology and chemical states of carbon and sulfur were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy, Raman scattering, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray photoelectron and near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopies. Successful encapsulation of sulfur inside SWCNTs cavities was demonstrated. The peculiarities of interactions of SWCNTs with encapsulated and external sulfur species were analyzed in details. In particular, the donor–acceptor interaction between encapsulated sulfur and host SWCNT is experimentally demonstrated. The sulfur-filled SWCNTs were continuously irradiated in situ with polychromatic photon beam of high intensity. Comparison of X-ray spectra of the samples before and after the treatment revealed sulfur transport from the interior to the surface of SWCNTs bundles, in particular extraction of sulfur from the SWCNT cavity. These results show that the moderate heating of filled nanotubes could be used to de-encapsulate the guest species tuning the local composition, and hence, the functional properties of SWCNT-based materials.This work was supported by the Russian Science Foundation (Project 18-72-00017), the bilateral Program “Russian-Germany Laboratory at BESSY II” in the part of XPS and C K-edge NEXAFS measurements, and shared research center SSTRC on the basis of the Novosibirsk VEPP-4 - VEPP-2000 complex at BINP SB RAS, using equipment supported by project RFMEFI62119X0022 in the part of S K-edge NEXAFS measurements.

ИСТОЧНИКИ ВЕЩЕСТВА И УСЛОВИЯ СЕДИМЕНТАЦИИ ВЕНДСКИХ ТЕРРИГЕННЫХ ПОРОД ЮГА НЕПСКО-БОТУОБИНСКОЙ АНТЕКЛИЗЫ (СИБИРСКАЯ ПЛАТФОРМА)

Разрез непской свиты характеризуется терригенным составом, тирская свита сложена преимущественно карбонатными породами. Для терригенных пород непской свиты характерна низкая степень сортировки и окатанности обломочного материала. Снизу вверх по разрезу тирской свиты наблюдается повышение степени сортировки и окатанности обломочных зерен. Установлено, что источником обломочного материала для отложений нижненепской подсвиты являлись породы смешанного (кислого и основного) состава. Терригенные породы верхненепской подсвиты и тирской свиты накапливались преимущественно за счет разрушения кислых пород. U-Pb (LA-ICP-MS) геохронологические исследования детритовых цирконов из терригенных пород непской и тирской свит позволили сделать вывод о том, что в качестве основных поставщиков обломочного материала в бассейн седиментации этих толщ выступали как архейско-раннепротерозойские породы фундамента Сибирской платформы, так и прилегающие области Центрально-Азиатского складчатого пояса. Предполагается, что седиментация нижненепской подсвиты происходила в остаточном бассейне, образованном в результате причленения террейнов и островных дуг, существовавших в акватории Палеоазиатского океана, к южной окраине Сибирской платформы в ходе реализации вендских аккреционно-коллизионных событий. Затем произошла трансформация в периферийный осадочный бассейн, имела место трансгрессия моря, что способствовало накоплению терригенно-карбонатных пород тирской свиты
