Steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence measurements were performed to elucidate the fluorescence quenching of oxazine, rhodamine, carbocyanine, and bora-diaza-indacene dyes by amino acids. Among the natural amino acids, tryptophan exhibits the most pronounced quenching efficiency. Especially, the red-absorbing dy…

This is the first of three papers in which the kinetics of formation of chemically bonded phosphate ceramics is discussed. A literature survey indicates that the formation of such ceramics is a three‐step process. First, oxides dissolve in a phosphoric acid or an acid phosphate solution and metal ions are released int…

The existence of the unsolvated 7,7,8,8-tetracyano-p-quinodimethane (TCNQ) dianion is proved experimentally. The dianion was formed in 50-keV collisions between TCNQ monoanions and sodium vapor. In the collision process, electron capture to the monoanion occurs with a cross section of about 1 Å2. The lifetime of the d…

Interatomic potentials that can model ligand field effects were used to investigate the properties of vacancies in orthorhombic LaMnO3. The minimum energy structures of LaMnO3−δ (where δ=1/192) were calculated for an oxygen vacancy on either the O1 or O2 site, respectively. It is predicted that the “degenerate” activa…
