Cu 2 ZnSn(S 1 − x Se x ) 4 (CZT(S, Se)) is emerging as a very credible alternative to CuIn 1 − x Ga x Se 2 (CIGS) as the absorber layer for thin film solar cells. The former compound has the important advantage of using abundant Zn and Sn instead of the expensive In and Ga. A better understanding of the properties of…

The recurrent outbursts that characterize low-mass binary systems reflect thermal state changes in their associated accretion discs. The observed outbursts are connected to the strong variation in disc opacity as hydrogen ionizes near 5000 K. This physics leads to accretion disc models that exhibit bistability and the…

We report a dielectrically actuated liquid crystal (LC) pump. A small volume of LC forms a pillar-like droplet in a cylindrical hole which partially touches the bottom substrate with embedded interdigitated electrodes. By applying a voltage, the LC droplet can be largely stretched along the electrode direction by the…

The genus Codium comprises c. 125 species widely distributed in marine coastal environments throughout the world. Due to morphological plasticity, the taxonomic delimitation of Codium species can be difficult. Sequences of the first exon of the large subunit of RUBISCO (rbcL) have been used in the molecular delimitati…

A novel surface modification method was investigated. The surface of siliceous materials was modified using polystyrene, poly(acrylic acid), poly(N-isopropylacrylamide), and poly(p-acrylamidophenyl-α-mannoside) synthesized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization. Thiol-terminated polymers we…

The reaction of Co(2)(mesityl)(4) with acetonitrile leads to the formation of a planar, low spin, bis-β-diketiminate cobalt(II) complex, (1-mesitylbutane-1,3-diimine)(2)Co (1). EPR spectroscopy, magnetic studies, and DFT calculations reveal the Co(II) ion to reside in a tetragonal ligand field with a (2)B(2)(d(yz))(1)…

When photosystem II (PSII) is exposed to excess light, singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)) formed by the interaction of molecular oxygen with triplet chlorophyll. Triplet chlorophyll is formed by the charge recombination of triplet radical pair (3)[P680(•+)Pheo(•-)] in the acceptor-side photoinhibition of PSII. Here, we provide…

BaBiO3 is a material where Bi4+ ions with half-filled 6s-states form an alternating set of Bi3+ and Bi5+ ions resulting in a charge ordered insulator. The charge ordering is accompanied by breathing distortion of the BiO6 octahedra (extension and contraction of the Bi-O bond lengths). Standard density functional theor…

Perylenedicarboximides were interlinked in their free peri-position to form dyads where the UV/vis absorptivity was amplified by exciton effects and the strong fluorescence bathochromically shifted by molecular dynamics. Applications of this type of dye with such increased Stokes shifts were discussed.
