Computer simulations reveal how photoinduced chemical reactions can be exploited to create long-range order in binary and ternary polymeric materials. The process is initiated by shining a spatially uniform light over a photosensitive AB binary blend, which thereby undergoes both a reversible chemical reaction and pha…

In a recent paper, Srinivasan and Sherwood reported that α-resorcinol crystals grow unidirectionally at the {01̄1̄} faces in the vapor phase and suggested that this phenomenon of unidirectional growth is intrinsic to polar crystals. Here, we present a molecular modeling study suggesting a plausible “self-poisoning” me…

The reaction of manganese(II) acetate, 1,1,1-tris(hydroxymethyl)methane (H3thme), and triethylamine in methanol leads to the formation of [Mn12O2(OMe)2(thme)4(OAc)10(H2O)4].2MeOH. The [Mn(III)4Mn(II)8] core consists of a central [Mn(III)4O6] rhombus sandwiched by two [Mn(II)4O7] fragments. Frequency-dependent ac susce…

Using in situ polarization modulation infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (PM-IRAS) and conventional IRAS techniques, the adsorption of NO on Pd(111) was studied from ultra-high-vacuum (UHV) conditions to 400 mbar. New monomeric and non-monomeric high-coverage NO adsorption states were observed at 400 mbar. In…

The effect of solvent on the growth of hemihedral faces of polar crystals is reviewed. Ample evidence is provided that differences in solvent binding at opposite hemihedral faces is a primary factor leading to differences in their growth rates; in general, the stronger the solvent−surface interaction, the more pronoun…
