Designing interactions across interfaces in ionic liquids

Ionic liquids (ILs) have attracted much attention because of their unusual charac- teristics (vapor pressure, condictivity, etc.). Furthermore, they can be designed to display desired properties specific to an application (task-specific ionic liquid, TSILs ...

Synthesis, structural determination, theoretical studies and catalytic activity of Mn(II) complex of N-isonicotinyl phosphoric triamide ligand

Kurt Schenk, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani

synthesized and characterized by H-1, C-13, P-31 NMR and IR spectroscopies. The reaction of MnCl2 center dot 4H(2)O with L led to the formation of a new 3D system {MnL2Cl2}(n)center dot 34CH(3)OH (C-1). X-ray crystallographic data revealed that the ligand ...

Band alignment and chemical bonding at the GaAs/Al2O3 interface: A hybrid functional study

Alfredo Pasquarello, Giacomo Francesco Leonardo Miceli, Davide Colleoni

The band alignment at the interface between GaAs and amorphous Al2O3 is studied through the use of hybrid functionals. For the oxide component, a disordered model is generated through density-functional molecular dynamics. The achieved structure shows good ...

Design of Self-Healing Supramolecular Rubbers with a Tunable Number of Chemical Cross-Links

Véronique Michaud, Federica Sordo

Supramolecular rubbers incorporating a large number of physical cross-links through cooperative hydrogen bonds display high self-healing properties but limited solvent and creep resistance due to the lack of chemical cross-links. Increasing both chemical c ...

Site-controlled quantum dots coupled to a photonic crystal molecule

Elyahou Kapon, Alok Rudra, Benjamin Dwir, Pascal Gallo, Clément William Tendaï Jarlov, Milan Calic, Bruno Marie Dominique Rigal

Two site-controlled quantum dots (QDs) were integrated in a photonic crystal molecule (PCM) formed by L3 nanocavities. A statistical analysis of the coupled cavity modes demonstrated the formation of bonding and anti-bonding delocalized PCM states. Exciton ...

Long-Range Bonding/Nonbonding Interactions: A Donor Acceptor Resonance Studied by Dynamic NMR

Long-range bonding interactions were evaluated using variable-temperature NMR spectroscopy and suitable 2'-CH2X-substituted phenylpyridines (X = Me, NMe2, OMe, F). It was found that the arylpyridyl rotational barriers were lower when electronegative atoms ...
