Development of Novel Guest Phases Confined in Carbon Based Micropore Space and Their Properties

(1) Nano-graphite derived by the heat-treatment of nano-diamond is investigated in relation to theirstructures,electronic structures and host-guest systems with potassium and bromine From Raman spectra andx - ray diffraction,它发现nano-diamond is converted to nano-graphite around 1600℃。nano-graphite thusobtained has a novel electronic structure featured with non-bonding π-electron states of edgeorigin. The non-bonding edge states play an important role in The spin-lattice relaxation mechanismas fast relaxation centers at the edges. the spin-lattice relaxation process is decelerated in lessgraphitized particles prepared at lower temperatures around 1200℃，可以explained by the presence of remnant sp - D13 - D1 regions. Intercalation of potassiummakes edge states less important in the electronic structure due to charge transfer from potassiumto graphite. The presence of potassium works to增强The spin-orbit interaction.(2)electronic properties of activated carbon fibers are investigatednano-graphite. Heat-treatment induces an insulator-to-metaltransition around 1300℃，due to the development of infinite percolation path networks. In the insulating statethe charging effect works importantly in the electron hopping processwhile the metallic state is featured with a considerable amount of disorder. In the vicinity of theinsulator - to - metal transition,spin-glass-like disordered magnetism appears where spins of edge-inherited non-bonding states areinteracting with the aid of π-conduction-electron mediated interaction. Physisorption of watermolecules in micropores surrounding nano-graphite domains induces a reduction of the spinconcentration. This can be explained in terms of the enhancement of inter-nano-graphite interactioninduced by the effective pressure of introduced water molecules。
