Concentration–discharge relationships vary among hydrological events, reflecting differences in event characteristics

Studying the response of streamwater chemistry to changes in discharge can provide valuable insights into how catchments store and release water and solutes. Previ- ous studies have determined concentration–discharge (cQ) relationships from long-term, low- ...

Simulating Solvation and Acidity in Complex Mixtures with First-Principles Accuracy: The Case of CH3SO3H and H2O2 in Phenol

Michele Ceriotti, Kevin Rossi, Veronika Juraskova

We present a generally applicable computational framework for the efficient and accurate characterization of molecular structural patterns and acid properties in an explicit solvent using H2O2 and CH3SO3H in phenol as an example. To address the challenges ...

Concurrent multiscale modeling and theory of solute-strengthening for dilute and complex concentrated alloys

Shankha Nag

Under common processing conditions, both dilute and complex concentrated alloys are often realized as random alloys, with no correlation in the occupancy of lattice sites by the constituent atom types. The current thesis primary addresses two problems in r ...

New Approach to Synthesis of Tetralin via Naphthalene Hydrogenation in Supercritical Conditions Using Polymer-Stabilized Pt Nanoparticles

Lioubov Kiwi

Supercritical (SC) fluid technologies are well-established methods in modern green chemical synthesis. Using SC fluids as solvents instead of traditional liquids gives benefits of higher diffusivity and lower viscosity, which allows mass transfer intensifi ...

Ultrafast Photoelectron and Optical Spectroscopies of Photoinduced Processes in Molecular Systems in Solution

Luca Longetti

Investigating molecular excitations with femtosecond time resolution is of pivotal importance to understand the out-of-equilibrium processes taking place in molecular systems upon light absorption. The photochemistry of solvated species is heavily determin ...

Depletion Effect-mediated Association of Carbon Nanotube-Polymer Composites and Their Application as Inexpensive Electrode Support Materials

Paul Joseph Dyson, Zhangjun Huang

The association between carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and polymers to afford functional composites has been attributed to enthalpic interactions, neglecting the entropic depletion effect, in which bound solvents are released during the association process. Here, ...

Nanocapillary confinement of imidazolium based ionic liquids

Aleksandra Radenovic, Sanjin Marion, Sebastian James Davis, Zeng-Qiang Wu

Room temperature ionic liquids are salts which are molten at or around room temperature without any added solvent or solution. In bulk they exhibit glass like dependence of conductivity with temperature as well as coupling of structural and transport prope ...

Effective Preparation of Nanoscale CH3NH3PbI3 Perovskite Photosensitizers for Mesoporous TiO2-Based Solar Cells by Successive Precursor Layer Adsorption and Reaction Process

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Sanghyun Paek, Iwan Zimmermann, Yonghui Lee, Kyung Taek Cho, Aron Joel Huckaba, Hobeom Kim, So-Min Yoo

Nanoscale CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite sensitizers are grown by delivering each precursor successively onto the surface of mesoporous (meso) TiO2 electrodes. Using Pb(NO3)(2) ions as a lead(II) source and CH3NH3I (MAI) for methylammonium and iodide sources, repet ...
