Solution Behaviour and Biomolecular Interactions of Two Cytotoxic trans-Platinum(II) Complexes Bearing Aliphatic Amine Ligands

A novel trans-platinum(II) complex bearing one dimethylamine (dma) and one methylamine (ma) ligand, namely trans-[PtCl2(dma)(ma)], recently synthesised and characterised in our laboratory, displayed relevant antiproliferative properties in vitro, being mor ...

Homogeneous catalytic decomposition of formic acid for high pressure hydrogen generation

Céline Fellay

The main obstacles in the widespread use of hydrogen as energetic alternative to fossil fuels are storage problems intrinsically linked to its extremely light and explosive nature. Since no ideal storage systems currently exist, reversible fixation of hydr ...

A viable hydrogen-storage system based on selective formic acid decomposition with a ruthenium catalyst

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Céline Fellay

The use of formic acid as a hydrogen-storage material has become more feasible thanks to the development of a homogeneous catalytic system of ruthenium water-soluble complexes (Ru/TPPTS; TPPTS=meta-trisulfonated triphenylphosphine) that selectively decompo ...

Stability and physical properties of alkylsilane and alkylphosphonate self-assembled monolayer (SAM) films on metal oxide substrates characterized at the micro- and nanoscale

Enamul Hoque

Self-assembled monolayer (SAM) films have attracted immense attention for both fundamental and applied research. A SAM is composed of a large number of molecules with a head group that chemisorbs onto a substrate, a tail group that interacts with the outer ...

Excited-State Dynamics of Donor−Acceptor Bridged Systems Containing a Boron−Dipyrromethene Chromophore: Interplay between Charge Separation and Reorientational Motion

Natalie Renuka Banerji, Eric Vauthey

The excited-state dynamics of a series of electron donor−acceptor bridged systems (DABS) consisting of a boron−dipyrromethene chromophore covalently linked to a dinitro-substituted triptycene has been investigated using femtosecond time-resolved spectrosco ...

Relaxivity of Gd-based contrast agents on X nuclei with long intrinsic relaxation times in aqueous solutions

Rolf Gruetter, Ruud van Heeswijk, Sabrina Laus

The relaxivity of commercially available gadolinium (Gd)-based contrast agents was studied for X-nuclei resonances with long intrinsic relaxation times ranging from 6 s to several hundred seconds. Omniscan in pure 13C formic acid had a relaxivity of 2.9 mM ...

Combined Al-protection and HF-vapor release process for ultrathin single crystal silicon cantilevers

Jürgen Brugger, Giovanni Boero, Schahrazede-Lila Mouaziz

A new technology based on a combination of Al-protection layers and HF-vapor etching to produce ultrathin single crystal silicon cantilevers is presented. 500 um long, 10 um wide and 0.5 um thick cantilevers have been fabricated with a high yield. A resona ...

Design, Simulation, Fabrication, and Characterization of a Digital Variable Optical Attenuator

Nico de Rooij, Wei Sun, Wilfried Noell

In this paper, we present the design, simulation, fabrication, and some measurement and characterization of a novel 16-bit digital variable optical attenuator (VOA) that attenuates by switching individual mirror of an array as an attempt to achieve input v ...

Nanoindentation and birefringence measurements on fused silica specimen exposed to low-energy femtosecond pulses

Christian Depeursinge, Yves Bellouard, Tristan Colomb

Femtosecond laser pulses used in a regime below the ablation threshold have two noticeable effects on Fused Silica (a-SiO2): they locally increase the material refractive index and modify its HF etching selectivity. The nature of the structural changes ind ...

General One-Step Synthesis of Free Hexofuranosyl 1-Phosphates Using Unprotected 1-Thioimidoyl Hexofuranosides

Ronan Euzen

A general one-step strategy is developed for the synthesis of hexofuranosyl 1-phosphates starting from new unprotected glycofuranosyl donors. It required first the preparation of new 1-thiohexofuranosides bearing a thioimidoyl heterocycle as a leaving grou ...
