The ultimate energy storage performance of an electrostatic capacitor is determined by the dielectric characteristics of the material separating its conductive electrodes. Polymers are commonly employed due to their processability and high breakdown strength; however, demands for higher energy storage have encouraged…
A facile one-pot synthesis of Ag@Fe2 O3 core-shell and Ag-Fe2 O3 heteromer nanoparticles is developed, and the core-shell nanoparticles show superior antibacterial properties compared to their heteromer counterparts and plain Ag nanoparticles. The mechanism for the increased efficiency is proposed to be due to the enh…
Reversible benzene dicarboxylate/2-bromobenzene dicarboxylate ligand exchange has been studied in the cubic metal-organic framework MOF-5. Significant exchange (up to ∼50%), with continuous compositional variation, was observed using ex-situ (1)H NMR following treatment over ∼6 h at ∼85 °C in 10-40 mM ligand solutions…
The influence of an electric field on an ultrathin FeCo film was investigated by x-ray absorption spectroscopy and magnetic circular dichroism. Measurements were done on sub-millimeter sized pillars, with partial fluorescence yield detection. Fe L2,3 absorption spectra revealed that partial oxidation of Fe occurred du…
A procedure to derive the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory from the multiband BCS Hamiltonian is developed in a general case with an arbitrary number of bands and arbitrary interaction matrix. It combines the standard Gor'kov truncation and a subsequent reconstruction in order to match accuracies of the obtained terms. Thi…
The catalytic behavior of transition metals (Sc to Zn) combined in polymeric phthalocyanine (Pc) is investigated systematically by using first-principles calculations. The results indicate that CoPc exhibits the highest catalytic activity for CO oxidation at room temperature with low energy barriers. By exploring the…
Efficient exciton dissociation at a donor-acceptor interface is the crucial, yet not fully understood, step for obtaining high efficiency organic solar cells. Recent theoretical work suggested an influence of polymer conjugation length and of interfacial dipoles on the exciton dissociation yield. This necessitates exp…
Supramolecular chemistry provides structural and conformational information about complexes formed from multiple molecules. While the molecule is held together by strong intramolecular contacts like covalent bonds, supramolecular structures can be further stabilized by weaker or transient intermolecular interactions.…
Five bis-cyclometalated iridium complexes with tifluoromethyl-substituted 2-phenylpyridine (ppy) at different positions of its phenyl group as the main ligands and tetraphenylimidodiphosphinate (tpip) as the ancillary ligand, 2-6 (1 is a trifluoromethyl-free complex), were prepared, and their X-ray crystallography, ph…
A series of side-chain liquid crystalline polymers (LCPs) with polysiloxane backbones have been synthesized by grafting mesogenic monomers to poly[3-mercaptopropylmethylsiloxane] (PMMS) via thiol–ene click chemistry. Their properties were studied in detail by a combination of 1 H NMR, gel permeation chromatography, th…

Direct band gap narrowing in highly doped n-type Ge is observed through photoluminescence measurements by determining the spectrum peak shift. A linear relationship between the direct band gap emission and carrier concentration is observed. We propose a first order phenomenological model for band gap narrowing based o…
The actual photonitiators PI can only operate in a restricted part of the visible spectrum; as a consequence, several PIs are usually necessary to harvest all the emitted visible photons. In the present paper, new dyes based on a donor−π-acceptor structure (1,3-indanedione derivatives) are incorporated into visible li…
Multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/carbon fiber (CF)/vinyl ester (VE) laminate composites have been fabricated in this study. Pristine MWCNTs were treated with acid solution, which formed numerous oxygen-containing functional groups onto their surface, resulting in COOH-MWCNTs. Thereafter, acrylic functional groups w…
Efficient triplet harvesting from exciplexes by reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) is reported using a fluorescent molecular system composed of the 4,4′,4″-tris(N-carbazolyl)-triphenylamine and bis-4,6-(3,5-di-3-pyridylphenyl)-2-methylpyrimidine. The exciplex forming material system shows the efficient delayed fluore…
One-dimensional micelles formed by the self-assembly of crystalline-coil poly(ferrocenyldimethylsilane) (PFS) block copolymers exhibit self-seeding behavior when solutions of short micelle fragments are heated above a certain temperature and then cooled back to room temperature. In this process, a fraction of the frag…
Graphene layers have been targeted in the last years as excellent host materials for sensing a remarkable variety of gases and molecules. Such sensing abilities can also benefit other important scientific fields such as medicine and biology. This has automatically led scientists to probe graphene as a potential platfo…
Using hybrid functional calculation, we identify the key intrinsic defects in Cu${}_{2}$ZnSnS${}_{4}$ (CZTS), an important earth-abundant solar-cell material. The Sn-on-Zn antisite and the defect complex having three Cu atoms occupying a Sn vacancy are found to be the main deep electron traps. This result explains the…
Stainless steel is gaining increasing use in construction because of its durability, favorable mechanical properties, and aesthetic appearance, with the austenitic grades being the most commonly used. Austenitic stainless steels have a high nickel content (8–11%), resulting in high initial material cost and significan…
Tuning of protein surface charge is a fundamental mechanism in biological systems. Protein charge is regulated in a physiological context by pH and interaction with counterions. We report on charge inversion and the related reentrant condensation in solutions of globular proteins with different multivalent metal catio…
