N,N -dimethylamino-4′-N′-methylstilbazolium 2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonate (DSTMS)-graphene ex-situ and in-situ composite films with 2% concentration of graphene were first prepared and systematically investigated. The crystallinity of DSTMS-based composite films were confirmed by XRD analysis, and the functional groups of composite films can be obtained by FT-IR. Optical absorptions were recorded using UV–Vis-NIR spectral analysis, and the band gap and extinction coefficient of the films were calculated. The thermal stability of the composite films were analyzed by TG/DSC. The pressure sensitive resistance test showed that the pressure sensitive signal of the composite films were significantly increased after graphene added, while the signal of DSTMS film eventually disappears. This work expands the application of organic nonlinear crystal DSTMS in optics and electricity by doping graphene.
Two new isostructural lead borates , Pb 8 Mg(BO 3 ) 6 and Pb 8 Ca(BO 3 ) 6 , have been synthesized via high temperature solution method. The single crystal structures of title compounds contain ∞ [Pb 8 B 6 O 18 ] 2- double layers composed of planar BO 3 triangles, Pb(2)O 9 and distorted Pb(1)O 5 polyhedra, these layers condense in c -axis, and the MgO 6 (or CaO 6 ) polyhedra fill into the layers, forming a three-dimensional framework. The stereochemical activity of lone pair (SCALP) electrons were found in the Pb(1)O 5 polyhedra, which combine with the BO 3 units, generating strong optical anisotropy . The calculated birefringences of Pb 8 Mg(BO 3 ) 6 and Pb 8 Ca(BO 3 ) 6 using first-principles method are 0.15@1064 nm and 0.12@1064 nm, respectively, which are comparable to the commercial α -BaB 2 O 4 (α-BBO) crystal and imply that they probably can be used as birefringent materials. The electronic structures, density of states of title compounds were calculated by density functional theory (DFT). Meanwhile, the TG-DSC curves, infrared spectral and UV–Vis–NIR diffuse reflectance spectral were measured.
