This study presents a zinc oxide (ZnO) film deposited on a glass substrate by ultrasonic spraying pyrolysis. The ZnO nanostructure was formed by treating the as-deposited ZnO films with hydrogen. The root-mean-square (RMS) roughness increases from 5.83 nm to 12.53 nm during the treatment for 20 min, but slightly decreases to 11.87 nm at a treatment time of 30 min. In the range 400-500 nm, the transparency of all the films with hydrogen treatment is slightly lower than that of the untreated films. The slight drop in the transparency of the films with hydrogen treatment is caused by scattering from pin-holes or nanostructures on the surface.

(±)-2-exo-Carboxy-2-endo-methyl-7-oxobicyclo[2.2.1]heptane exists preferentially in its closed, ringtautomer form, the tricyclic lactol (C9H12O3), which aggregates catemerically by forming hydroxyl-to-carbonyl hydrogen bonds [O O = 2.7667(16)A, O-H O = 170o] among molecules screw related in b. This ring-chain equilibrium is driven by relief of angular strain at the 7-ketone, whose origin is the ketone’s sp hybridization vs. the angle enforced by the bicyclic system.

The atomic arrangement of the title compound, (4-NH2-6-OCH3-C4H3N2)2(H2PO4)2.H2O, can be described by inorganic layers of H2PO4 - anions and water molecules parallel to ab-plane at z = � and z = �, between which organic cations (4-NH2-6-OCH3-C4H3N2) + are located. The crystal packing is influenced by O-H…O, N-H…O, N-H…N and C- H…O hydrogen bonds. All ring atoms of the organic entity are coplanar. The exocyclic N atoms are electron receiving centers, which is consistent with features of imino resonance evidenced by bond lengths.

A new organic nonlinear optical (NLO) material L-Histidinium trifluoroacetate was crystallized using L- Histidine and trifluoroacetic acid in 1:1 stoichiometric ratio in water-ethanol medium. X-ray diffraction analysis of the single crystals showed that they belong to triclinic system, space group P1, with two molecules per unit cell. The lat- tice parameters are a = 5.1673(2) A, b = 8.8393(3) A, c = 12.4837(6) A, = 96.190(3)°, = 100.020(3)° and =102.010 (3)°. The molecules are held together by a three-dimensional network of hydrogen bonds. The crystalline perfection was studied by high resolution X-ray diffraction. The second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiency was measured by Kurtz and Perry method. The FTIR, UV-Vis-NIR spectra and TGA/DTA were recorded and studied. Vickers microhardness measurement was also carried out.

The single crystals of the NLO material, L-Alaninium maleate were grown by using the submerged seed solution method. The identity of the crystal was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystalline perfection was analyzed using high resolution X-ray diffraction and it was found that the crystalline perfection is quite good. The values of the laser damage threshold and the Vicker’s microhardness are in the higher range. The dielectric studies at different temperatures showed that the dielectric constant and dielectric loss have low values at higher frequencies and these values are independent of the temperature. The details are presented and discussed. Keyword: X-ray diffraction, Growth from solution, Organic compound, Nonlinear optical materials.

The compound 1-(p-fluorophenyl)-2-(�-pyridyl)ethanol and its corresponding dehydration compound 1-(p- fluorophenyl)-2-(�-pyridyl)ethene were obtained from the Knoevenagel condensation reaction between 2-methylpyridine with p-fluorobenzaldehyde. The X-ray structure determined for 1-(p-fluorophenyl)-2-(�-pyridyl)ethanol reveals that the compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system space group, P21/n, containing four molecules in each crystal unit cell (a = 5.3664(15) A, b = 8.343(2) A, c = 25.056(6) A, and = 93.837(15)°). The crystal structure shows the formation of an intermolecular hydrogen bond O-H … N between the oxygen atom of the O-H and the nitrogen atom of a pyridine group of the next molecule. The condensation product 1-(p-fluorophenyl)-2-(2-pyridyl)ethene crystallizes in the monoclinic sys- tem, in the Cc space group, with unit cell dimensions a = 22.920(7) A, b = 5.9149(14) A, c = 7.8544(15) A, and = 104.16(2)°. The molecular structure shows the p-fluorophenyl ring attached to the double bond and located trans to the pyridine ring. The crystallography data give evidence that the intermediary compound is actually the alcohol just before the dehydration process that yields the trans double bond of the 1-(p-fluorophenyl)-2-(� -pyridyl)ethene.

The monoclinic unit cell of Bis(hydrazineH) pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylate contains singly protonated hydrazine cations and doubly deprotonated pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylate anions. Atoms forming the pyrazine ring are coplanar (r.m.s. 0.0075(1) A). Carboxylate groups form dihedral angles with the pyrazine ring of 1.7(2)° (C7/O1/O2) and 89.3(2)° (C8/O3/O4). An extended hydrogen bond network is observed in which hydrazine N atoms act as donors in bonds to non- protonated carboxylate O and hetero-ring nitrogen atoms. The monoclinic structure of hydrazine adduct of pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid is composed of doubly-deprotonated pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxylate anions and singly-protonated hydrazine cations. The anions have their geometrical centres lo- cated at the inversion centres and are planar (r.m.s. 0.0009(1) A). Both carboxylic groups form dihedral angles of +11.7(1)° and -11.7(1)° with the pyrazine ring plane. Hydrazine cations acting as donors bridge the anions via weak hy- drogen bonds in which carboxylate O atoms are the acceptors giving rise to molecular layers. The structure of the adduct with pyrazine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid contains , apart from symmetry independent neutral hy- drazine molecules, symmetry independent acid molecules one half of them with protons attached to the carboxylate oxy- gen atoms as in the parent acid, the second half shows zwitterionic form with proton attached to the hetero-ring nitrogen atom. Carboxylic groups and the pyrazine ring are almost coplanar in both types of acid molecules. The latter are bridged by short hydrogen bonds of 2.435(2) and 2.426(2) A operating between carboxylate oxygen atoms belonging to adjacent symmetry independent acid molecules, forming layers composed of molecular ribbons. Hydrazine molecules acting as donors link the ribbons by a network of hydrogen bonds.

The reaction of AgNO3 with 1-(4-pyridylmethyl)-1H-benzotriazole (4-pbt) afforded a photoluminescent one- dimensional (1D) double-helical coordination polymer {(Ag(4-pbt))(NO3)}� (1) formed by interchain C-H � su- pramolecular interactions of the single-helical chains. Adjacent 1D double-helical motifs aforementioned were assembled into different two-dimensional (2D) sheets from the different crystallographic directions, respectively, by the co-effects of Ag O, C-H···O H-bonding, stacking, and C H supramolecular interactions. In comparision with the previous finding, the present work reveals that the N-donor spatial position of pendant pyridyl group in such benzotriazol-1-yl- based pyridyl ligands plays an important role on the final structures of relevant coordination complexes.

In order to synthesize Bi2Se3 nanopowders by a solvothermal synthesis method, ethylenediamine, dimethylformamide, acetone, absolute ethanol, and deionized water were respectively used as a solvent, using BiCl3 and elemental Se powders as starting materials and KBH4 as a reductant at 180 C for different times. X-ray diffraction was used for examining the phase composition of the products. The results showed that pure Bi2Se3 nanopowders were successfully synthesized only when deionized water was used as the solvent. Transmission electron microscopy observation revealed that the nanopowders consisted of big polygonal nanosheets and small irregular nanoparticles. The formation mechanism of the Bi2Se3 nanosheets and nanoparticles was proposed.
