Highly stable and soluble bis-aqua Gd, Nd, Yb complexes as potential bimodal MRI/NIR imaging agents

Marinella Mazzanti

A tripodal ligand based on the 8-hydroxyquinolinate binding unit yields a soluble and highly stable bis-hydrated Gd3+ complex in water (pGd = 19.2(3)) with relaxivity change in the pH range 4.5-7.4 and Nd3+, Yb3+ analogues with sizeable NIR emission upon e ...

A multi-color fast-switching microfluidic droplet dye laser

Demetri Psaltis

We describe a multi-color microfluidic dye laser operating in whispering gallery mode based on a train of alternating droplets containing solutions of different dyes; this laser is capable of switching the wavelength of its emission between 580 nm and 680 ...

Controlling the lateral aggregation of perfluoroalkylated hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronenes

The investigation of two hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HBC) derivatives carrying linear or branched perfluoroalkylated side chains is reported. Polycondensed aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) such as HBC derivatives are well known to self-organize to form highly ...

Nanostructure formation in poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate)-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) triblock copolymers in the solid state

Harm-Anton Klok

The morphology in the solid state of a series of triblock copolymers comprising a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) midblock and symmetric poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) (PBLG) end blocks has been studied using X-ray scattering and microscopy techniques. Transmissio ...
