Two simple CBP isomers, namely mm-CBP and ooo-CBP, were designed and synthesized by finely tuning the linking topology between the carbazole and the central biphenyl units of CBP, and their thermal, photophysical and electrochemical properties were investigated. Such simple modification of the linking topology endows…
A novel compound, 5,7,14,16-tetraphenyl-8:9,12:13-bisbenzo-hexatwistacene (TBH), has been successfully synthesized through a retro-Diels-Alder reaction. Single-crystal structure analysis indicated that TBH has a twisted configuration with a torsion angle of 27.34°. The HOMO-LUMO gap of TBH calculated from the differen…
We study a family of functionalized squaraine (fSQ) donors for absorbing in the near-infrared (NIR) and green spectral regions. The NIR-absorbing materials are the symmetric molecules 2,4-bis[4-(N-phenyl-1-naphthylamino)-2,6-dihydroxyphenyl]squaraine (1-NPSQ), 2,4-bis[4-(N,N-diphenylamino)-2,6 dihydroxyphenyl]squarain…
We report on a new biosensor with localized surface plasmons (LSP) based on an array of gold nanorods and the total internal reflection imaging in polarization contrast. The sensitivity of the new biosensor is characterized and a model detection of DNA hybridization is carried out. The results are compared with a refe…
Abstract A series of synthetic polymer bioconjugate hybrid materials consisting of poly(2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (p(HEMA)) and poly(l‐histidine) (p(His)) are synthesized by combining atom transfer radical polymerization of HEMA with ring opening polymerization of benzyl‐N‐carboxy‐L‐histidine anhydride. The resulti…
Depolarization of an individual mitochondrion or small clusters of mitochondria within cells has been achieved using a photoactivatable probe. The probe is targeted to the matrix of the mitochondrion by an alkyltriphenylphosphonium lipophilic cation and releases the protonophore 2,4-dinitrophenol locally in predetermi…
The effective strategy of indirect linakge for constructing ternary ambipolar phosphine oxide (PO) hosts with the high first triplet energy levels (T(1)) was successfully demonstrated. The interplay between the chromophore, hole and electron transporting moieties was effectively restrained. Both of T(1) as high as 3.0…
A platinum free counter electrode for dye sensitized solar cells was developed using graphene platelets (GP) supported nickel nanoparticles (NPs) as the active catalyst. Few layered GP were prepared by chemical oxidation of graphite powders followed by thermal exfoliation and reduction. The nanoparticles of nickel wer…
Four different sized gold nanoparticles (14 nm, 16 nm, 35 nm and 38 nm) were prepared to conjugate an antibody for a gold nanoparticle-based immunochromatographic assay which has many applications in both basic research and clinical diagnosis. This study focuses on the conjugation efficiency of the antibody with diffe…
Two new trinuclear copper(II) complexes, [Cu(3)(μ(3)-OH)(daat)(Hdat)(2)(ClO(4))(2)(H(2)O)(3)](ClO(4))(2)·2H(2)O (1) and [Cu(3)(μ(3)-OH)(aaat)(3)(H(2)O)(3)](ClO(4))(2)·3H(2)O (2) (daat = 3,5-diacetylamino-1,2,4-triazolate, Hdat = 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole, and aaat = 3-acetylamino-5-amino-1,2,4-triazolate), have been…
This paper presents a fuzzy logic hysteresis comparator-based direct torque control (DTC) scheme of an induction motor (IM) under varying dynamic conditions. The fuzzy logic controller (FLC) is used to adjust the bandwidth of the torque hysteresis controller in order to reduce the torque and flux ripples and, hence, t…
Molecular insights into the roles of amine functionalization and cooperative CO2 interactions into enhancing (and diminishing) CO2 binding by metal-organic frameworks are shown both experimentally and computationally. Contrary to popular thinking, higher amination decreases CO2 binding in this system. This loss is com…
Hydrogel based scaffolds for neural tissue engineering can provide appropriate physico-chemical and mechanical properties to support neurite extension and facilitate transplantation of cells by acting as ‘cell delivery vehicles’. Specifically, in situ gelling systems such as photocrosslinkable hydrogels can potentiall…
Ionic transition-metal complex (iTMCs)-based electro-luminescent nanofibers (TELFs) are developed by using coelectrospinning. A single TELF consists of a Galistan liquid metal core (cathode), an iTMC-based polymer shell, and an ITO thin film coating (anode). Lights emitted from the TELFs can be detected by a CCD camer…
We demonstrate the ability to control the microstructural order of self-assembled nanofibers of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and link structure differences with formation conditions. We control the crystallization conditions of the P3HT chains through the use of various solvents and show that distinct differences in…
In this paper, we show a free-standing highly ion-conducting ionic liquid (IL)-polymer electrolyte, Tetra-PEG ion gel, prepared by incorporating imidazolium-based ILs into very much lower concentration (3–6 wt%) of tetra-arm poly(ethylene glycol), Tetra-PEG. The ionic conductivities of the free-standing Tetra-PEG ion…
Water oxidation by cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate, CAN, with [IrIII(Cp*)(4,4′-R2-2,2′-bipyridine)(H2O)]2+ (R = OH, OMe, Me or COOH) to evolve oxygen has been investigated together with the possible oxidation of the ligands by CAN. The apparent catalytic reactivity is highly dependent on the substituent R and the highest…
The crystallization kinetics of the two commercial bioactive glasses, 45S5 and S53P4, was studied using differential thermal analysis ( DTA ), optical microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy ( SEM ). The thermal properties, the activation energy of crystallization, and the Johnson‐Mehl‐Avrami ( JMA ) exponent wer…
A flexible solar device showing exceptional air and mechanical stability is produced by simultaneously optimizing molecular structure, active layer morphology, and interface characteristics. The PFDCTBT-C8-based devices with inverted architecture exhibited excellent power conversion efficiencies of 7.0% and 6.0% on gl…
This Communication describes the synthesis of highly monodispersed 12 nm nickel nanocubes. The cubic shape was achieved by using trioctylphosphine and hexadecylamine surfactants under a reducing hydrogen atmosphere to favor thermodynamic growth and the stabilization of {100} facets.
