Some salientfeatures of platinum group metal compounds with sulfur, selenium or tellurium, known as chalcogenides, primarily focusing on binary compounds, are described here. Their structural patterns are rationalised in terms of common structural systems. Some applications of these compounds in catalysis and material…
The controlled growth of poly(glycidyl methacrylate) (PGMA) and poly(GMA-co-MMA) brushes by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) in methanol/water has been demonstrated on silicon wafer surfaces. A polymerization system using copper(I) bromide, copper(II) chloride and 2,2′-dipyridyl was found to produce a nearl…
Gold nanoparticles passivated by a monolayer of functional thiolates represent a new promising tool in supramolecular chemistry since they allow the preparation of complex, self-organized, polyvalent structures with a very modest synthetic effort. These systems have sizes comparable to those of many biological molecul…
A novel backward directional coupler, composed of a conventional microstrip (CμS) line and composite right/left-handed (CRLH) line, is proposed. This coupler is functionally backward but it is based on a forward-type coupling phenomenon. The coupler is shown to exhibit broad bandwidth and tight coupling characteristic…
Crystal engineering has become an established part in various segments of industrial research. The toolbox of crystal engineering not only offers design strategies for performance chemicals and characterization tools for active ingredients but also helps to provide fundamental concepts for understanding the principles…
Three new basal-apical, mu(2)-1,1-azide bridged complexes, [CuL(1)(N(3))](2) (1), [CuL(2)(N(3))](2) (2) and [CuL(3)(N(3))](2) (3) with very similar tridentate Schiff base blocking ligands [L(1) = N-(3-aminopropyl)salicylaldimine, L(2) = 7-amino-4-methyl-5-azahept-3-en-2-one and L(3) = 8-amino-4-methyl-5-azaoct-3-en-2-…
Polyoxometalates have been traditionally the subject of study of molecular inorganic chemistry. Yet, these polynuclear molecules, reminiscent of oxide clusters, present a wide range of structures and with them ideal frameworks for the deployment of a plethora of useful magnetic, electroionic, catalytic, bioactive and…
Decomposition of the precursor Bi[N(SiMe3)2]3 in the presence of poly(1-hexadecene)0.67-co-(1-vinylpyrrolidinone)0.33 and a small amount of NaN(SiMe3)2 in 1,3-diisopropylbenzene solution at 203 °C gives Bi nanowires. The single-crystalline wires are several micrometers in length, and possess a mean diameter of 5.9 ± 2…
The crystal structures of the complete series of n-alkyl carboxylic acids from hexanoic to pentadecanoic acid have been determined following in situ crystallisation. The structures reveal that the melting point alternation across the series is correlated with alternating crystal density. All even acids crystallise fro…
A family of tetranuclear mixed-valent Mn(II)(2)/Mn(III)(2) complexes of type [Mn(4)(LH(2))(2)(LH)(2)(H(2)O)(x)(RCO(2))(2)](Y)2.nS has been synthesised and structurally characterised, where LH(3) = triethanolamine (N(CH(2)CH(2)OH)(3)), (R=CH(3), x=2, Y = CH(3)CO(2)-, n=2, S = H(2)O; 1), (R=C(6)H(5), x=0, Y=C(6)H(5)CO(2…
A detailed simulation of the fringing-field effect in liquid-crystal (LC)-based blazed-grating structures has been carried out. These studies are aimed at clarifying the relationship between the width of the fringing-field-broadened phase profile of the blazed grating and the LC cell thickness. This fringing-field bro…
The online analysis of cadmium selenide nanoparticle formation in continuous-flow microfluidic reactors is described. The as-produced particles exhibit sharp excitonic absorption and emission peaks (∼30–40 nm) with relatively high quantum efficiencies (∼10%). The mean size and dispersity of the particles, determined u…
Mechanical properties and shape memory behavior of Ti-Mo-Ga alloys were investigated in order to develop Ni-free biomedical shape memory alloys. The Ti-Mo-Ga alloys were fabricated by arc melting method. The ingots were cold-rolled up to 95% reduction in thickness. The cold-rolled specimens were heat treated in the te…
CO adsorption, NO adsorption and CO + NO reaction on various Pd model catalysts have been studied using vibrational spectroscopy from ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) up to elevated pressures (∼1 bar) and the kinetics of the reaction compared with the conventional high surface area Pd/γ-Al2O3 catalysts. The structure sensitivit…
Microcellular silicon oxycarbide open cell ceramic foams were fabricated from a silicone resin. Microcellular foams, with a cell size ranging from ∼1–80 μm, were fabricated using poly(methyl methacrylate) microbeads as sacrificial templates. The compression strength of the foams decreased with increasing cell size.
Long wavelength excitation of [Ru(dmb)(2)(bpy-An)](2+) (dmb is 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine and bpy-An is 4-methyl-4'-(9-anthrylethyl)-2,2'-bipyridine) in CH(3)CN solution produces upconverted delayed singlet anthracene fluorescence via bimolecular triplet-triplet annihilation.
In context of investigations of doped sodium alanate as a hydrogen storage material, an investigation combining a TEM-EDX study and XAFS measurements has been carried out on doped sodium alanate, using titanium tetrabutylate (Ti(OBun)4), colloidal titanium nanoparticles (Ti*) or TiCl3 as doping agents. It was found th…
We have measured double-layer capacitance and electronic conductance of an activated carbon electrode in an aprotic electrolyte solution, 1 mol/L in acetonitrile. Both quantities show a similar dependence on the electrode potential with distinct minima near the potential of zero charge. This correlation suggests that…
In this paper we report the rational design and fabrication of high-quality core-shell Au-Pt nanoparticle film. Such film shows highly efficient catalytic properties and excellent surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) ability.
Abstract The effect of CO 2 on the isothermal crystallization kinetics of poly(L‐lactide), PLLA, was investigated using a high‐pressure differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), which can perform calorimetric measurements while keeping the sample polymer in contact with pressurized CO 2 . It was found that the crystall…
