Studying quasi-one-dimensional (1D) semiconductor nanostructures is an attractive and active research field in nanoscience and nanotechnology. Their controllable growth is the foundation for observing novel properties and fabricating useful nano-devices and is also a challenge. / We believe that our work in perfecting the fabrication of aligned 1D semiconductor nanostructures and control of their morphology, crystal structure and orientation will shed more light on the understanding on 1D physics and advancement in nanotechnology. / We have studied the control of the structure, morphology and alignment of Zn-Cd-Se 1D nanostructures by fine tuning their growth conditions and judiciously choosing substrates in a metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) reactor. We found that the products are zincblende structured nanoneedles at relatively low temperatures and pressures, and wurtzite structured nanowires at high temperatures and pressures. We have fabricated aligned 1D nanostructures of different chemical compositions by exploiting the epitaxial relationship between the lattices of Zn-Cd-Se system and GaAs substrate. From the systematic studies of the orientations of the aligned samples, we demonstrated that they can be controlled by the crystallographic surface of the substrate. We also found that the orientation can be affected by the growth temperature. Three growth models are suggested to explain the aligned growth for zincblende and wurtzite 1D nanostructures and complex shaped three-bladed nanoswords. Observations and angular measurements of the orientations and growth directions by electron microscopy and analyses by pole stereographs offer supporting evidences for the models. Polarized photoluminescence studies of individual CdSe nanowires obtained under controlled growth have been achieved. / Liu, Zhuang = 通過金屬有機物化學氣相沉積法合成晶體結構, 形貌及生長取向性可控的硒鋅鎘族准一維納米結構 / 劉壯. / "July 2007." / Adviser: Sui Kong Hark. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 69-02, Section: B, page: 1062. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2007. / Includes bibliographical references. / Electronic reproduction.

Les hétérocycles aromatiques sont des motifs structuraux rencontrés dans un grand nombre de substances d'intérêts biologiques ou pharmacologiques. Plus particulièrement, les pyridazines substituées font l'objet d'un intérêt grandissant pour leurs propriétés pharmaceutiques (antibactériens, anti-inflammatoires, médicaments cardiovasculaires…). De plus, les structures comportant des pyridazines peuvent également être utilisées en tant qu'agents chélatants de cations métalliques et s'ordonner en édifices utilisés en chimie supramoléculaire.Nous nous sommes donc intéressés à l'élaboration d'éléments de base comportant des cycles pyridaziniques de type aryl ou hétéroarylpyridazines. La mise au point de méthodes impliquant des espèces organométalliques a été l'un de nos objectifs primordial. L'élaboration de ces composés a été réalisée par formation de liaisons C-C. Une approche électrochimique d'hétérocouplage associé à une catalyse au nickel a été utilisée. Quelques limites à cette méthode ont cependant été observées dans le cas des couplages mettant en jeu des 3,6-dihalogénopyridazines. Une étude par électrochimie analytique a permis d'en comprendre les raisons. La seconde partie de notre travail a consisté en l'étude de la réactivité d'arylzinciques ou de triarylbismuths vis-à-vis de 3,6-dihalogénopyridazines / Heteroaromatic rings are present in various biological and pharmacological active molecules. Substituted aryl-pyridazines have given rise to considerable interest because of their diverse pharmacological properties (antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, cardiovascular drugs…). Moreover, structures which contain pyridazines are used in supramolecular chemistry for their applications through self-assembly processes in the presence of metal ions.In order to elaborate building blocks containing pyridazine rings such as aryl or heteroaryl-pyridazines, we turned our intention on the development of complementary methods involving organometallic reagents. Transition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of organometallic compounds with organic halides is one of the most powerful methods for the generation of C-C bonds.We chose to develop the most straightforward method involves heterocoupling reaction of aryl/heteroaryl compounds under electrochemical conditions (sacrificial anode process) associated to a nickel catalysis. However some limitations have been pointed out when 3,6-dihalogenopyridazines are involved in the cross-coupling reaction. An electrochemical study was investigated in order to propose some mechanistic considerations. A second part of this work consisted in the study of arylzinc and triarylbismuths reagents toward 3,6-dihalogenopyridazines
