The use of catalytic converters in automobiles is mandatory to reach current emission limits for toxic engine byproducts. The goal of zero-emissions remains elusive for internal combustion engines, yet tightening of legislation towards this ideal continues. To meet this demand, scientists and engineers must further th…

Aktive Passivatoren: Der überraschende Wiederanstieg der Lumineszenzintensität von CdSe-Quantenpunkten zwischen 200 und 300 K unterstreicht, wie wichtig die Wechselwirkung zwischen der Deckschicht und dem Nanokristall-Halbleiter ist. Während die Lumineszenz bei 160 K nur schwach ist (links), leuchtet die Probe bei 300…

The objective of this research was to develop and characterize composite biofilms produced using wheat gluten and cellulose acetate phthalate. Biofilms act as barriers to moisture and oxygen diffusion through the film. The films were prepared with different thicknesses and component concentrations and were analyzed fo…

A novel class of nonconjugated polysquaraines consisting of isolated chromophores bridged by variable receptor linkers has been synthesized by a two-step one-pot procedure. Substantial reorganization of the polymer backbone conformation occurs upon external physical or chemical stimuli, leading to characteristic absor…
