We theoretically investigate gap plasmons for two silver nanocubes coupled through a molecular tunnel junction. In the absence of tunneling, the redshift of the bonding mode saturates with decreasing gap distance. Tunneling at small gap distances leads to a damping and slight blueshift of the bonding mode, but no low-…

Chiral amines are valuable building blocks for the production of a variety of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and other specialty chemicals. Only recently, imine reductases (IREDs) were discovered which catalyze the stereoselective reduction of imines to chiral amines. Although several IREDs were biochemically characte…

We investigate the optical response of square arrays of metallic nanoparticles where each lattice site is occupied by two particles, a dimer. In particular we examine the surface lattice resonances arising in these structures when the in-plane dipole moments associated with the plasmon modes of the nanoparticles coupl…

We present measurements of the outdoor stability of PCDTBT:PC71BM based bulk heterojunction organic solar cells for over the course of a year. We find that the devices undergo a burn-in process lasting 450 hours followed by a TS80 lifetime of up to 6200 hours. We conclude that in the most stable devices, the observed…

The molecular architecture of plant secondary cell walls is still not resolved. There are several proposed structures for cellulose fibrils, the main component of plant cell walls and the conformation of other molecules is even less well known. Glucuronic acid (GlcA) substitution of xylan (GUX) enzymes, in CAZy family…

Heterologeous production of rhamnolipids in Pseudomonas putida is characterized by advantages of a non-pathogenic host and avoidance of the native quorum sensing regulation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Yet, downstream processing is a major problem in rhamnolipid production and increases in complexity at low rhamnolipid…
