Based on density functional theory, the electronic and optical properties of hybrid organic/perovskite crystals are thoroughly investigated. We consider the monocrystalline 4F-PEPI as material model and demonstrate that the optical process is governed by t ...
Enantiopure, monodisperse alleno-acetylenic cyclooligomers were synthesized. The single-crystal x-ray structures of the cyclic trimer and hexamer were resolved, providing insights into the symmetry of these mols. Electronic CD (ECD), ORD, Raman spectroscop ...
Polarization dependent vanadium L edge x-ray absorption spectra of BaVS3 single crystals are measured in the four phases of the compound. The difference between signals with the polarizations E perpendicular to c and E parallel to c ( linear dichroism) cha ...
The extraordinary light transmission effect (EOT) through sub-wavelength nanoapertures in opaque metal films has lead to observation of a wide variety of exciting new optical phenomena. This remarkable effect is generally related to the interaction of the ...
Both enantiomers of an optically active trialkynyl(phenyl)methane (the key building blocks in the construction of a stable expanded cubane) have been prepd. The strategy involved the resoln. of a racemic intermediate by means of HPLC on a chiral stationary ...
The year 2011 having been proclaimed by UNESCO and IUPAP “International Year of Chemistry”, it seems fitting to have a close look at a physical chemistry instrument, the Polaristrobometer, an early form of polarimeter/saccharimeter, at its inventor, the Sw ...
The Dirac-like electronic structure of graphene originates from the equivalence of the two basis atoms in the honeycomb lattice. We show that the characteristic parameters of the initial state wave function (sublattice symmetry and isospin) can be determin ...
We investigate hollow photonic crystal structures consisting in air-slot photonic crystal nanocavities. The high quality factor similar to 2.6x10(4) of such cavities along with a strong overlap between the resonant mode and the hollow core region allows fo ...
Enantiopure 1,3-diethynylallenes were used as monomers in the construction of monodisperse oligomers and cyclooligomers. The open-chain structures show a non-linear increase in the intensity of the chiroptical properties as the no. of monomeric units incre ...
By replacing common buffers with anisotropic liquids in microfluidics, an enhanced range of optofluidic functionalities is enabled. Such an anisotropic liquid is nematic liquid crystals (NLC), which exhibits optical properties that can be tuned by optical, ...
