We present coupled electronic oscillator calculations on conjugated dendrimers that can be used in organic light-emitting diodes. The results indicate that the nature of the excited state in these materials can be strongly influenced by electronic coherences. We use the collective electronic oscillator model approach…

Abstract Branched poly(ether sulfone)s were prepared from 1,1,1‐tris(4‐hydroxyphenyl) ethane and 4,4′‐difluorodiphenyl sulfone (DFDPS) either by polycondensation in dimethyl sulfoxide with the elimination of water or via the silyl method in N ‐methylpyrrolidone. With an exact 1/1 stoichiometry, crosslinking was avoida…

The use of cyclen (1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane) as a blocking ligand enables assembly of the mixed-valence square complex [(cyclen)4Ru4(pz)4]9+ (pz = pyrazine). A crystal structure determination shows the molecule to possess a regular square geometry wherein each Ru atom has an equivalent coordination environment.…

The influence of gravity on the capillary forces and stabilities of pendular liquid bridges between spherical bodies is examined including the special case of a sphere and a flat surface. Previously, this has only been possible by measurement or calculation for a particular bridge system. In the current work, it is sh…

We study the properties of heterostructures formed by two layers of diluted magnetic semiconductor separated by a nonmagnetic semiconductor layer. We find that there is a RKKY-type exchange coupling between the magnetic layers that oscilles between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic as a function of the different par…

Quantum computation in molecular magnets is studied by solving the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation numerically. Following Leuenberger and Loss [Nature (London) $410,$ 789 (2001)], an external alternating magnetic field is applied to populate and manipulate a superposition of single-spin states in molecular magne…

Biology provides us with a unique set of self-assembled fibrillar networks in the form of amyloid fibrils, derived from the self-assembly of a number of peptides or misfolded proteins. These, in turn, are associated with a number of diseases such as Alzheimer's, Creutzfeldt−Jakob disease (CJD), and type II diabetes. R…
