It is shown, by DFT calculations, that the uniform functionalization of the upper layer of graphite by hydrogen or fluorine does not change essentially its bonding energy with the underlying layers, whereas the functionalization by phenyl groups decreases the bonding energy by a factor of approximately ten. This means…

In-situ TOPO decomposition was accomplished by applying a vacuum at elevated temperatures to a precursor solution in the presence of oxygen, leading TOPO to oxidize to di-n-octylphosphinic acid (DOPA) and octylphosphonic acid (OPA). The mixed ligand system of tetradecylphosphonic acid (TDPA), DOPA and OPA produced CdS…

Mn-doped Bi(Mg1/2Ti1/2)–PbTiO3 disordered ferroelectric ceramics were studied under ac electric fields and a crossover from a nearly constant loss to a superlinear power-law behavior was observed. Our results confirmed that the nearly constant loss behavior also exists in disordered ferroelectrics. The exponent of the…

Landau theory and symmetry considerations lead us to propose an explanation for several seemingly paradoxical behaviors of charge ordering (CO) and spin ordering (SO) in the mixed valence compound ${\text{LuFe}}_{2}{\text{O}}_{4}$. Both SO and CO are highly frustrated. We analyze a lattice gas model of CO within mean-…

Abstract Organocatalysis has emerged during the last decade as a concept with a significant number of synthetic applications. Important driving forces for this growth are that organocatalytic strategies often operate at rather mild reaction conditions, with reduced waste formation, and that processes may lead to high…
