The Jahn–Teller effect (JT effect or JTE) is an important mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking in molecular and solid-state systems which has far-reaching consequences in different fields, and is responsible for a variety of phenomena in spectroscopy, stereochemistry, crystal chemistry, molecular and solid-state physics, and materials science.
Second-order Jahn-Teller distortion provides a rigorous and first-principles approach to the distortion problem. The interactions between the HOMOs and LUMOs to afford a new set of molecular orbitals is an example of second-order Jahn-Teller distortion.
In this structure, the copper centers are octahedral. Most copper(II) compounds exhibit distortions from idealized octahedral geometry due to the Jahn-Teller effect , which in this case describes the localization of one d-electron into a molecular orbital that is strongly antibonding with respect to a pair of chloride ligands.
In their early 1957 paper on what is now called pseudo Jahn–Teller effect (PJTE), Öpik and Pryce [2] showed that a small splitting of the degenerate electronic term does not necessarily remove the instability and distortion of a polyatomic system induced by the Jahn–Teller effect (JTE), provided that the splitting is sufficiently small (the two split states remain "pseudo degenerate ...
The term can also refer to octahedral influenced by the Jahn–Teller effect, which is a common phenomenon encountered in coordination chemistry. This reduces the symmetry of the molecule from O h to D 4h and is known as a tetragonal distortion.
The prominent shoulder in this absorption band is due to a Jahn–Teller distortion which removes the degeneracy of the two 2 E g states. However, since these two transitions overlap in a UV-vis spectrum, this transition from 2 T 2g to 2 E g does not require a Tanabe–Sugano diagram.
These small pieces modify guns for rapid-fire and are classified as machine guns themselves. As the $2,500 printers showed, hobbyists and criminals can easily exploit rapidly improving technology ...
the Jahn-Teller effect is a pretty advanced topic in chemistry and a reader would really benefit from some groundwork, octahedral complex would be preferable over octahedral complex. See also the AXE method, most molecular geometries are still missing. V8rik 20:07, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
