Ammonium heptamolybdate (NH4)6Mo7O24·4H2O (AHM) and its peroxo derivatives are analyzed as solution-processed room temperature hole transport layer (HTL) in organic solar cells. Such AHM based HTLs are investigated in devices with three different types of active layers, i.e., solution-processed poly(3-hexylthiophene)/…
Abstract Oligomeric main‐chain Schiff‐base compounds 4 and 5 have been synthesized by the trans‐esterification of their respective doubly functionalized monomeric precursors [M{(η5‐C5H5)Fe(η5‐C5H4)C(=O)CH=C(4‐C6H4OH)NCH2CH2N=CH‐(2‐O,4‐CO2H–C6H3)}] [M = Ni (2), Cu (3)] in dmf. The new compounds were characterized by el…
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a highly prevalent arrhythmia with pronounced morbidity and mortality. Genetics analysis has established electrophysiological substrates, which determine individual vulnerability to AF occurrence and maintenance. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) found in virtually all organisms function as negative regul…
Carboplatin is a second-generation platinum anticancer agent used for the treatment of a variety of cancers. Previous X-ray crystallographic studies of carboplatin binding to histidine (in hen egg-white lysozyme; HEWL) showed the partial conversion of carboplatin to cisplatin owing to the high NaCl concentration used…
The use of cobalt hydroxychloride [Co2(OH)3Cl] as an anode material for lithium ion batteries (LIBs) is investigated using spherical shape and ultrafine nanocrystals directly formed by spray pyrolysis from spray solution of cobalt chloride salt. Dot-mapping images of the resulting powders reveal a uniform distribution…
We demonstrate a new route to the precision fabrication of epitaxial semiconductor nanostructures in the sub-10 nm size regime: quantum-size-controlled photoelectrochemical (QSC-PEC) etching. We show that quantum dots (QDs) can be QSC-PEC-etched from epitaxial InGaN thin films using narrowband laser photoexcitation, a…
Synchrotron radiation has many compelling advantages over conventional radiation sources in the measurement of accurate Bragg diffraction data. The variable photon energy and much higher flux may help to minimize critical systematic effects such as absorption, extinction and anomalous scattering. Based on a survey of…
Enzymatic regio- and stereoselective hydroxylation are valuable for the production of hydroxylated chiral ingredients. Proline hydroxylases are representative members of the nonheme Fe(2+)/α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase family. These enzymes catalyze the conversion of L-proline into hydroxy-L-prolines (Hyps). L…
Density functional theory has been employed to design 41 host molecules for blue electrophosphorescence by incorporating electron donor (carbazole (cbz)) and electron acceptor (α-carboline (Cb1)) units into N -phenylcarbazole (PhCbz). We have systematically investigated the influence of the number (mono-, di-, and tri…
In this study, we synthesized a powder consisting of core-shell-structured Ni/NiO nanocluster-decorated graphene (Ni/NiO-graphene) by a simple process for use as an anodic material for lithium-ion batteries. First, a crumpled graphene powder consisting of uniformly distributed Ni nanoclusters was prepared by one-pot s…
Patterning is a familiar approach for imparting novel functionalities to free surfaces. We extend the patterning paradigm to interfaces between crystalline solids. Many interfaces have non-uniform internal structures comprised of misfit dislocations, which in turn govern interface properties. We develop and validate a…
Surface-immobilized rotaxanes are of practical interest for myriad applications including molecular rotors and analytical sensing. Herein, we present a facile method for the preparation of cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8])-based rotaxanes on gold (Au) surfaces threaded onto a viologen (MV(2+)) axle. The surface-bound CB[8] rota…
Active sites of nanocrystalline tin dioxide materials with variable particle size, surface area, and catalytic modifiers were studied. Effect of palladium and ruthenium oxides clusters on the activity and concentration of tin dioxide surface centers was evaluated by temperature-programmed desorption techniques using p…
Novel double-stranded polyacetylene with a perylene bisimide bridge has been efficiently synthesized by metathesis cyclopolymerization of bis(1,6-heptadiyne) derivatives, and exhibited good solubility, highly thermal and oxidative stability, low LUMO energy levels, narrow bandgaps, and regular ladder-like architecture.
The Stille-coupling polymerization of a short conjugated polymer with an aliphatic linker was used to demonstrate a prototype in a new class of polymer semiconductors wherein the conjugation segment length and the length of the entire chain can be independently controlled. Subsequent thermal, morphological, and 2D gra…
The behavior of a grounding system can be predicted by using either the electrical equivalent circuit models or electromagnetic computation. Despite its advantages over the latter, the equivalent circuit model fails to accurately predict the behavior under transient conditions due to the absence of two key factors, na…
In view of increasing demands for efficient photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy (PDT), we herein report the synthesis and photophysical characterizations of new chlorin e6 trimethyl ester and protoporphyrin IX dimethyl ester dyads as free bases and Zn(II) complexes. The synthesis of these molecules linked at the…
The fabrication of manganese oxide-carbon composite microspheres with open nanochannels and their electrochemical performance as anode materials for lithium ion batteries are investigated. Amorphous-like Mn3O4 nanoparticles embedded in a carbon matrix with three-dimensional channels are fabricated by one-pot spray pyr…
A fuel reactor with a fuel-injection system for liquid fuels was designed and built for a chemical-looping reactor system with the nominal fuel input of 10 kW th . The gas velocities in the riser section and at the gas-distribution nozzles of this unit are comparable to those of industrial circulating fluidized-bed bo…
Rational design of electrode materials is essential but still a challenge for lithium-ion batteries. Herein, we report the design and fabrication of a class of nanocomposite architecture featured by hierarchically structured composite particles that are built from iron oxide nanocrystals and carbon nanotubes.
