Synthesis and Characterization of Some Lanthanide（Ⅲ） Complexes with 4- [N-（2-methoxy benzylinine）formy1]-2, 3-dimethyl-1-phenyl-3-pyazolin-5-one

A series of seven novel lanthanide（Ⅲ ） nitrato complexes with 4-[ N-（2-methoxybenzylimine）formyl] 1-2, 3- dimethyl-1-phenyl-3-pyazolin-5-one （2mbfa）, were synthesized. These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, molecular mass determination, conductance and magnetic moment measurements, IR, UV-visible, and ^13CNMR spectral studies, In these complexes, the Schiff base, 2mbfa, acts as neutral bidentate ligand by utilizing the carbonyl oxygen and azomethine nitrogen as donor sites. All the three nitrate ions are also coordinated unidentately with 7 coordination for the lanthanide（Ⅲ） ions with a tentative monocapped octahedral geometry for the complexes. All the seven lanthanide（Ⅲ） complexes have a general formula, [ Ln（2mbfa）：（NO3）3 ].     

Synthesis and Characteristic Study on Complexes of Europium（Ⅲ） and Maleic Acid Doped with Non-Fluorescent Ions

Complex of europium （Ⅲ） with maleic acid, and binuclear complexes of europium（Ⅲ）with maleic acid doped with non-fluorescent ions gadolinium, lanthanum and yttrium, were synthesized. The compositions and structures of complexes were characterized with elemental analysis, single crystal X-ray diffraction, IR and DSC-TG. Fluorescent properties were studied with fluorescence spectrum. The results indicated that the strongest fluorescent complexes were obtained when the ratio of europium and non-fluorescent ion was 8：2. The order of Eu^3＋ fluorescence strengthened by three doped rare earths was Gd^3＋ 〉La^3＋ 〉Y^3＋     

Structure and chemical states of highly eptiaxial CeO2（001） films grown on SrTiO_3 substrate by laser molecular beam epitaxy

Highly epitaxial and pure（001）-oriented CeO2 films were grown on SrTiO3（001） substrates by laser molecular beam epitaxy method without any gas ambient.Layer-by-layer epitaxial growth mode of CeO2 was confirmed by in situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction（RHEED） observations.High-resolution X-ray diffraction（HRXRD） and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy（HRTEM） results indicated the STO（100）//CeO2（100）,STO[100]//CeO2 [110] epitaxial relationship for out-of-plane and in-plane,respectively.The formation mechanism of the epitaxial film was also discussed in the light of a theoretical model.Chemical states of the LMBE ceria films were evaluated and evidences for the existence of Ce3＋and oxygen vacancies were presented.
