A Co2+ ion was reduced by NaBH4 to form cobalt nanoparticles of 10–20 nm in size. The as-obtained Co nanoparticles were stable in air. Congo red was used to evaluate the Co nanoparticles' wastewater treatment capability. It was found that 150 ppm of Congo red could be removed from aqueous solution within 2 min with th…

Time-resolved fluorescence spectra from the RuN719 dye exhibit very short lifetimes (<30 fs) in solutions, on non-injecting substrates and on injecting ones. This reveals <10 fs intramolecular energy redistribution competing with the injection. We conclude that injection proceeds on a sub-10 fs time scale from non-the…
