Hypericin and stentorin are the most important representatives of the phenanthroperylene quinones. Their tautomerism, dissociation, conformation, and association equilibria make them structurally complex, and they are interesting on the one hand for medical applications (for example, photodynamic therapy) and on the o…

The role of hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) in the protection of polyolefins continues to expand. HALS are essential components in formulations developed for outdoor use and have been proven to be effective thermo-oxidative stabilizers. The physicochemical properties of hindered amines have a profound effect o…

The red luminescence at 686 nm in KTaO3 is investigated in pure as-grown and doped (Al, Ba, Cr, Fe, Er, Li, Mg, Ni, Rh, V, Zr) crystals from different growth laboratories. In contrast to earlier results [1,2] which led to the conclusion that the main center should be an intrinsic defect Ta3+ + O2- vacancy, we found th…

Dark opaque blue to transmissive light blue is the color transition that poly(3,4-propylenedioxythiophene) (PProDOT) and derivatives undergo when switched from their reduced to oxidized state. These polymers are very promising electrochromic materials—they exhibit more rapid switching, lower oxidation potentials, and…

Current voltage (I–V) characteristics have been studied at various temperatures in amorphous thin films of Ge22Se78−xBix and GexSe80−xTe20 where 0≤x≤10. At low electric fields, ohmic behaviour is observed. However, at high electric fields (E≡104 V cm−1) the current becomes superohmic. Analysis of the data shows the ex…

Raman spectroscopy was used to investigate Al selectivity in Si‐doped tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) solutions whose Si dopant concentration covers both Al passivating and Al nonpassivating instances. Raman spectra of the Si doped solutions suggest different dominant ionic silicate species for passivating and no…

The conversion coefficients from photon fluence to ambient dose equivalent, H* (10) and effective doses were calculated for photons up to 10 GeV. A Monte Carlo code EGS4 was used for these calculations and secondary particle transports were considered. The calculated ambient dose equivalents were compared to the calcu…

Fast and temperature-stable emission band at 5.8 EV has been reveadled in a K2SO4 crystal. This emission can be effectively excited by photons of hv > 15 eV and is interpreted as radiative electron transitions between the subbands of a splitted valence band. The threshold of the formation of electron-hole pairs equals…

Electron and neutron irradiation of diamond produces a wide variety of different EPR defect centres. The definitive establishment of the vacancy (neutral and negatively charged), the nearest neighbour di-vacancy (R4/W6) and a nearest neighbour pair of ⟨100⟩ split interstitials (R1) form some starting points, from whic…
