A 1,2-dithienylethene compound bearing bis(phosphine) groups (1o) represents a new class of photoresponsive ligands where there are steric and electronic differences between two photogenerated isomers. The coordination chemistry of this ligand class is demonstrated by preparing a gold(I) complex (2o) and a phosphine s…

Gel to glass transformation of methyltriethoxysilane was investigated using infrared and Raman spectroscopies. The vibrational frequencies of the Si−O network are found to be a sensitive probe of the gel to glass transformation, which is measured to be at ca. 950 °C for this system, under the experimental conditions u…

We report electric field-induced modulation of absorption in PbS nanocrystal quantum dots across the spectral region 600–2000nm, encompassing the entire telecommunications band. The maxima in the electroabsorption spectra correspond with the positions of the first excitonic peak, confirming the predominance of exciton…

Purest green! CePO4:Tb/LaPO4 core/shell nanowires with enhanced green photoluminescence (PL) have been synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method (see the PL spectrum). The fact that lattice parameters of the LnPO4 family are similar and that their crystal structures are identical is utilized to ensure that defects i…

Diverse ZnO integrated nanostructures, constructed by epitaxial nanowalls and symmetric single-crystalline nanosheets, were successfully synthesized via a strain-assisted self-catalyzed process at a low temperature of 500°C. The nanostructures started with the growth of ZnO nanowires, nucleated on a rugged ZnO single-…

In this letter, the full set of elastic coefficients of LaPO4 monazite is presented based on the first-principles plane-wave pseudopotential total energy method. Mechanical parameters (bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young’s moduli, and Poisson’s ratio) are also presented and compared with experimental results for polycr…

Colloidal silica gels are shown to stiffen with time, as demonstrated by both dynamic light scattering and bulk rheological measurements. Their elastic moduli increase as a power law with time, independent of particle volume fraction; however, static light scattering indicates that there are no large-scale structural…

We study electrochemical p- and n-type doping in the well-known light-emitting polymer poly[2-methoxy-5-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene] (MEH-PPV). Doping reactions are characterized using cyclic voltammetry. Optical measurements including photoluminescence and UV/Vis/NIR transmission were performed on doped s…

The electronic structure, lattice dynamics, and the electron-phonon coupling (EPC) in hole $(p)$-doped and electron $(n)$-doped diamonds have been extensively investigated using ab initio methods with the virtual crystal approximation. The calculations of $p$-doped diamond correctly reproduced all the essential proper…

Liquid-liquid and liquid-vapor coexistence regions of various water models were determined by Monte Carlo (MC) simulations of isotherms of density fluctuation-restricted systems and by Gibbs ensemble MC simulations. All studied water models show multiple liquid-liquid phase transitions in the supercooled region: we ob…

We study step bunching under conditions of attachment/detachment limited kinetics in the presence of a deposition or sublimation flux, which leads to bunch motion. Analysis of the discrete step dynamics reveals that the bunch velocity is inversely proportional to the bunch size for general step-step interactions. The…
