The photodynamic effect of meso-substituted cationic porphyrins, 5-[4-(trimethylammonium)phenyl]-10,15,20-tris(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)porphyrin iodide 1, 5,10-di(4-methylphenyl)-15,20-di(4-trimethylammoniumphenyl)porphyrin iodide 2 and 5-(4-trifluorophenyl)-10,15,20-tris(4-trimethylammoniumphenyl)porphyrin iodide 3, h…
We describe a method to calculate the electrical force acting on a sphere in a suspension of dielectric spheres in a host with a different dielectric constant, under the assumption that a spatially uniform electric field is applied. The method uses a spectral representation for the total electrostatic energy of the co…
By expanding the wave function in plane waves, we use the pseudopotential method of density functional theory within the generalized gradient approximation to calculate the effective magnetic coupling energies of the S=5/2 spins in the Fe2 dimer, approximated as Fe$_2$O$_2$H$_2$. Setting the Fe-O bond length at the va…
The use of high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) as templates to create highly porous materials (PolyHIPEs) is described. Polymerisation occurs around emulsion droplets, which create voids in the final material. The void fraction is very high and can reach levels of 0.99. Varying the emulsion composition can control f…
Dielectric dispersion and Raman studies are carried out on the solid solution series (Ba x Pb 1− x )(Yb 0.5 Nb 0.5 )O 3 from x = 0.0 to 0.3. The x-ray diffraction analysis indicates that with the substitution of Ba 2+ , the intensity of the peaks corresponding to antiparallel displacement of Pb 2+ decreases and the st…
Sequential catalytic growth provides an efficient tool for the synthesis of carbon nanotubes periodically inserted with catalyst nanoparticles. Several synthesis parameters were found crucial in order to induce this particular growth mechanism. The presence of phosphorus is required to form metal phosphide particles a…
The mechanical response of single-walled and multiwalled carbon nanotubes to a series of external Ar atom impacts is examined with classical molecular dynamics simulations. The extent to which the carbon nanotubes deform in the direction perpendicular to their axis is found to depend on the amount of momentum transfer…
We have studied M 2 AlN phases, where M = Ti, V, and Cr, by means of ab initio total energy calculations. The bulk modulus of M 2 AlN increases as Ti is replaced with V and Cr by 19.0% and 26.5%, respectively, which can be understood on the basis of the increased number of valence electrons filling the p–d hybridized…
Achiral rodlike molecules possessing an ester group generated a chiral smectic liquid crystal phase.
The synthesis, characterization, and electrochemical, photophysical, and photochemical properties of the binuclear compounds [(Ru(H8-bpy)2)2((Metr)2Pz)](PF6)2 (1) and [(Ru(D8-bpy)2)2((Metr)2Pz)](PF6)2 (2), where bpy is 2,2'-bipyridine and H2(Metr)2Pz is the planar ligand 2,5-bis(5'-methyl-4'H-[1,2,4]triaz-3'-yl)pyrazi…
The magnetic properties of the system MnZnO prepared by conventional ceramic procedures using ZnO and MnO(2) starting powders are studied and related to the nanostructure. Thermal treatment at 500 °C produces a ferromagnetic phase, although this temperature is not high enough to promote proper sintering; thus the ther…
The adsorption of HCN and the reaction of HCN with NO(2) over Na-, and Ba-Y,FAU zeolite catalysts were investigated using in situ FTIR and TPD/TPR spectroscopies. Both catalysts adsorb HCN molecularly at room temperature, and the strength of adsorption is higher over Ba-Y than Na-Y. Over Na-Y, the reaction between HCN…
Single crystals of two-dimensional 2H-NbSe2, which undergoes a superconducting transition at Tc = 7.2 K and a charge-density wave (CDW) transition at TCDW = 30 K, were synthesized. Measurements of the resistivity, Hall coefficient and magnetoresistance (MR) versus temperature were performed on NbSe2 crystals with diff…
Low temperature Raman spectroscopic measurements are carried out on Sc 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 to probe the orthorhombic–monoclinic phase transition. Phonon frequencies and their temperature coefficients are found to change discontinuously across the transition. Several modes are found to disappear while some new modes appear ac…
A simple wet chemical method involving only ultrasonic processing in dilute ceric sulfate (CS) was used to functionalize carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Unexpectedly, single-walled and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs and MWCNTs) were cut, oxidized, and disintegrated by sonication in 0.1 N CS for 2-5 h. Transmission elec…
Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) synthases catalyze the polymerization of (R)-3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA (HB-CoA) into high molecular weight PHB, biodegradable polymers. The class III PHB synthase from Allochromatium vinosum is composed of a 1:1 mixture of two approximately 40 kDa proteins: PhaC and PhaE. Previous studies using si…

The internal nanomorphologies of two types of vinyl polymer-silica colloidal nanocomposites were assessed using electron spectroscopy imaging (ESI). This technique enables the spatial location and concentration of the ultrafine silica sol within the nanocomposite particles to be determined. The ESI data confirmed that…
Cyanamide (NH(2)CN), an interstellar molecule, is a relevant molecule in prebiotic chemistry, because it can be converted into urea in liquid water. Carbodiimide (HNCNH), the most stable cyanamide isomer, is able to assemble amino acids into peptides. In this work, using FTIR spectroscopy, we show that carbodiimide ca…
