Palladium-based supramolecular assemblies: from complex structures to water-soluble anion-receptors

The combination of palladium salts and bipyridyl ligands can lead to the formation of a large variety of coordination complexes, with different shapes and sizes, displaying a very versatile host-guest chemistry. Increasing their structural complexity remai ...

Organic matters, but inorganic matters too: column examination of elevated mercury sorption on low organic matter aquifer material using concentrations and stable isotope ratios

Lorenz Schwab

Sorption of mercury (Hg) in soils is suggested to be predominantly associated with organic matter (OM). However, there is a growing collection of research that suggests that clay minerals and oxides are also important solid phases for the sorption of solu ...

Chemical evolution of primary and secondary biomass burning aerosols during daytime and nighttime

Athanasios Nenes, Satoshi Takahama, Spyros Pandis, Amir Yazdani

Fine particulate matter (PM) affects visibility, climate, and public health. Biomass burning (BB) in the forms of residential wood burning, wildfires, and prescribed burning is a major source of primary and secondary organic matter (OM, an important fracti ...

Modelling of C/Cl isotopic behaviour during chloroethene biotic reductive dechlorination: Capabilities and limitations of simplified and comprehensive models

Julien Maillard, David Hunkeler

Predicting the fate of chloroethenes in groundwater is essential when evaluating remediation strategies. Such predictions are expected to be more accurate when incorporating isotopic parameters. Although secondary chlorine isotope effects have been observe ...

Ultrafast Tryptophan-to-Heme Electron Transfer in Myoglobins Revealed by UV 2D Spectroscopy

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Cristina Consani

Tryptophan is commonly used to study protein structure and dynamics, such as protein folding, as a donor in fluorescence resonant energy transfer (FRET) studies. By using ultra-broadband ultrafast two-dimensional (2D) spectroscopy in the ultraviolet (UV) a ...

Modelling of fission gas behaviour in high burnup nuclear fuel

Paul Blair

The safe and economic operation of nuclear power plants (NPPs) requires that the behaviour and performance of the fuel can be calculated reliably over its expected lifetime. This requires highly developed codes that treat the nuclear fuel in a general mann ...

Effects of chlorine residue in atomic layer deposition hafnium oxide: A density-functional-theory study

Wei Chen, Min Xu

Hafnium tetrachloride is one of the most commonly used precursors for atomic layer deposition of HfO2. According to the experimental result, chlorine residue is almost unavoidably incorporated during the deposition process. We performed first-principles ca ...

Density functional theory study on surface reaction mechanism of atomic layer deposition of ZrO(2)on Si(100)-2 x 1

Density functional theory was employed to investigate atomic layer deposition (ALD) mechanism of zirconia on Si(100)-2 X 1 surface with single and double hydroxyl groups. The ZrO2 ALD process using ZrCl4 and H2O as precursors involves two alternate deposit ...

Inhibition of bacterial adhesion on PVC endotracheal tubes by RF-oxygen glow discharge, sodium hydroxide and silver nitrate treatments

Christoph Hollenstein, Karine Triandafillu

Medical-grade poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) was chemically modified to study how the incorporation of monovalent silver influences Pseudomonas aeruginosa adhesion and colonization. The modification investigated consisted of a radio frequency-oxygen (RF-O-2) g ...
