  2. Contents • Observation of nano-crystals • Analysis of nano-crystals A control experiment 1,3,5-tris(P-bromophenyl)benzene

  3. 1-1. Observation of nano-crystals A control experiment The purpose • To confirm whether it is possible to crystallize on amino-NH without Y-molecule modification. Sample information preparation by T. Homma 1. THO-10-012was dispersed in MeOH……(a) 2. A droplet of (a) was put onto a TEM grid with molybdenum mesh pre-coated by lacy carbon films…….(b) 3. We observed (b) the same condition as last time.

  6. 2-1. Observation of nano-crystals • The purpose • To make clear the process of crystallization of a nano-material. 1,3,5-tris(P-bromophenyl)benzene A crystal Sample information by Mr. Homma, THO-10-002,003 The crystal information _refine_ls_R_factor_gt 0.0354 _refine_ls_wR_factor_gt 0.0354 _symmetry_cell_setting orthorhombic _symmetry_space_group_name_H-M 'P 21 21 21' _symmetry_Int_Tables_number 19 loop_ _symmetry_equiv_pos_site_id _symmetry_equiv_pos_as_xyz 1 x,y,z 2 -x,1/2+y,1/2-z 3 1/2-x,-y,1/2+z 4 1/2+x,1/2-y,-z _cell_length_a 14.4165(3) _cell_length_b 18.9655(4) _cell_length_c 21.9088(2) _cell_angle_alpha 90 _cell_angle_beta 90 _cell_angle_gamma 90 _cell_formula_units_Z 12 loop_ _atom_type_symbol _atom_type_radius_bond C 0.68 H 0.23 Br 1.21 preparation by T. Homma Sample preparation at AIST 1. Y-shaped molecule(THO-10-002,003)on NH was dispersed in MeOH……(a) 2. A droplet of (a) was put onto a TEM grid with molybdenum mesh pre-coated by lacy carbon films.

These show the rough shape of an area. We measured the area of regular shapes that molybdenum molecules are lined on outside.

There are a membrane structureoutside of crystal structure in some TEM images( I&K,F).

  13. Summary • The crystals do not grow up on amino-base. The Y-shaped molecule-base is needed to grow up and to be a crystal. • A nano-crystal changes to the crystal structure only in a short time. It is not stable structure or stable sizes? • From the histograms, a lot of nano-clystals are about three molecules sizes. There is a factor that block the growth? There are a membrane structureoutside of crystal structure in some TEM images( 2-6_I & 2-7_K,F2).
