First principles calculations were used to study the electronic excitation energies (E), transition dipole moments (μ), and difference of dipole moments between ground and excited states (Δμ) for low-lying singlets of the series of ruthenium(II) ammine complexes. Both cases of the gas phase and the acetonitrile soluti…
The simple strategy of coating a closely packed colloid monolayer with a nanometer-thick metal film to connect colloidal spheres and then gently sonicating produces a series of colloid metastructures, including rods and planar sheets. These structures can be fluorescently labeled, which can serve as a probe to monitor…
Chromium(II) diphosphate, Cr(2)P(2)O(7), has an incommensurately modulated structure at ambient conditions with a = 7.05, b = 8.41, c = 4.63 A, beta = 108.71 degrees and q = (-0.361, 0, 0.471). It undergoes a phase transition towards a commensurate structure with a commensurate q vector, q = (-1/3, 0, 1/2), at T(c) =…
Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and electrostatically assembled multilayers of some soluble polypyrroles (including a thiol-functionalized polypyrrole) were produced on gold and platinum electrodes. Gold and platinum surfaces were used either bare or primed with an anionic monolayer of 3-mercaptopropylsulfonate or Na…
The reaction of bismuth amides or alkoxides with phenolic ligand precursors yields Bi complexes of aminetris(phenoxide)s, one of which was characterized by X-ray crystallography, revealing monomeric Bi units of the tetradentate NO3 ligand further associated via a symmetrical toluene bridge into a bis(bismuth)toluene i…
Vielseitige Hanteln: Hantelförmige Moleküle auf der Basis eines Hexa-p-phenylenderivats selbstorganisieren sich in wässriger Lösung in gut definierte linksgängige helicale Fasern. Diese helicalen Nanofasern gehen bei der Einlagerung von aromatischen Gastmolekülen (rote Kugeln) reversibel in hohle Nanokapseln über.
We consider a phase field model that includes a stress field during nonisothermal phase transformation of a single-component system. The model is applied to the solidification and melting of confined spherical volumes, where sharp interface solutions can be obtained and compared with the results of the phase field sim…
The practically diamagnetic phase of the title biradical underwent a solid-state phase transition at 350 K with a drastic χmolT jump by an almost ideal value of 1 cm3 K mol-1 to give a stable S = 1 paramagnetic state.
Fabrication of ultrathin polymer composite films with low dielectric constants has been demonstrated. Octa(aminophenyl)silsesquioxane (OAPS) was synthesized and assembled with poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and poly(styrene sulfonate) (PSS) via a layer-by-layer electrostatic self-assembly technique to yield nanoporous ultra…
A series of novel dendritic beta-diketone ligands, 1-phenyl-3-[G-n]-4-phenylacetyl-5-pyrazolone (n = 0-3, G stands for polyaryl ether), were synthesized by introducing Fréchet-type dendritic branches. The corresponding Tb3+-cored dendritic complexes were characterized by X-ray crystallography, elemental analysis, ESI…
Nickel hydroxide samples obtained by strong alkali precipitation are replete with stacking faults. The local structures of the stacking faults resemble the stacking patterns of different polytypic modifications that are theoretically possible among the layered hydroxides. This resemblance becomes a basis for the class…
Si3N4 nanowires prepared from the carbothermal reduction of carbonaceous silica xerogels with metal salt additives usually contain a small amount of nanotubes. This paper is devoted to the investigation of the formation mechanism of the Si3N4 nanowires. As-prepared samples heated at 1300 degrees C for different reacti…
Azospirillum brasilense possesses an alternative pathway of l-arabinose metabolism, which is different from the known bacterial and fungal pathways. In a previous paper (Watanabe, S., Kodaki, T., and Makino, K. (2006) J. Biol. Chem. 281, 2612-2623), we identified and characterized l-arabinose 1-dehydrogenase, which ca…
Computing the enthalpies of formation for alkali metal and alkaline earth metal oxides (M(x)O) and hydroxides [M(OH)(n)] using the Gaussian-n (Gn) and Weismann-n (Wn) ab initio model chemistries is difficult due to an improper treatment of core-valence electron correlation effects. Using a new model chemistry called t…
A joint experimental and theoretical approach has been developed to study oxygen atom recombination on a beta-quartz surface. The experimental MESOX setup has been applied for the direct measurement of the atomic oxygen recombination coefficient gamma at T(S) = 1000 K. The time evolution of the relative atomic oxygen…
Lanthanide-containing liquid crystals exhibiting a mesophase close to room temperature were obtained by adduct formation between a long-chain salicylaldimine Schiff base and tris(2-thenoyltrifluoroacetonato)lanthanide(III) complexes or tris(benzoyltrifluoroacetonato)lanthanide(III) complexes. The mesophase was identif…
The influence of a catalase (Cat) layer located at different depths in the layer-by-layer hemoglobin/polystyrene sulfonate films with an (Hb/PSS)(20)(-)(x)/(Cat/PSS)/(Hb/PSS)(x) (x = 0-20) architecture on kinetics of hemoglobin degradation under treatment with hydrogen peroxide solutions of different concentrations an…
A polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS)-based blue light electroluminescent nanoparticle, POSS-FL3, which contains a terfluorene chromophore on each of its eight arms, was easily prepared via the hydrosilation reaction between octakis(dimethylsiloxy)silsesquioxane and an allyl-functionalized terfluorene chromoph…
Preparation and photoluminescence (PL) properties of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles embedded in a lipophilic polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) matrix are reported in detail with an unbalanced sol–gel route. A high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) indicates that ZnO particles are highly crystallized, wi…
The optical properties of two Au-Ag nanobox samples with average edge lengths of 44 and 58 nm and wall thicknesses of 6 and 8 nm, respectively, have been studied by single particle spectroscopy. The measurements gave an average line width of Gamma = 306 +/- 7 meV with a standard deviation of sigma = 30 meV for the 44-…
