Methylation of the silicon surface through a chlorination-alkylation method has been used to improve the electronic properties of silicon. Upon alkylation of the surface, an increase in the minority carrier recombination lifetime and the surface photovoltage is observed, in line with an increase in surface charge. A l…

An enzymic method to protect selected amino group of lysine has been reported. This reaction proceeds smoothly under room temperature with high regioselectivity (up to 99%) and high yields (up to 90%). This work will pave the way for simple and selective protection of amino group of lysine in industry.

The rapid and massive formation of a foamy precipitate while reacting zinc acetate (Zn(Ac)2) and triethanolamine (TEA) in proper conditions led to an unravelled complex and a molecular tetra-metallic zinc cluster: their synthesis was optimised and they were characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The struct…

We present an application of a selective time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) scheme to a model for a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) with a perylene sensitizer dye on a TiO2 nanoparticle model. In an earlier study on this system [De Angelis, Chem. Phys. Lett., 2010, 493, 323], it was reported that a larg…

Core-shell assemblies of nanocrystals of sumanene (shell) and sumanenetrione (core) resembling onigiri (filled Japanese rice balls) were fabricated by stepwise reprecipitation. Optical properties of the onigiri-type assemblies showed that emissions from the core sumanenetrione nanocrystals were amplified through energ…

We show that monodisperse iron oxide nanoparticles in the size range of 6–17 nm, coated with brush-like layers of polystyrene or polyisoprene of different molecular weights, form well-defined lyotropic liquid crystalline phases. The lyotropic phase behaviour was investigated by synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering…
