The concentrations of 16 trace elements were investigated and compared for the first time in the digestive and excreting tissues of two Nautilus species (Cephalopoda: Nautiloidea) from two geologically contrasted areas: (1) N. macromphalus from New Caledon ...
Superconductivity in F-doped LaFeAsO, Tc= 26 K was first reported by Kamihara et al in 2008. Following that, more iron-based superconductors, e.g., (Ba,K)Fe2As2, LiFeAs, and Fe1+yTe1-xSex were discovered. The new class of high Tc superconductors have attra ...
The article presents DFT calcns. that elucidate the interaction of a redox mediator, iodide/triiodide, and an oxidized org. dye photo-sensitizer, providing electronic structure insight into all steps of the mechanism involved in dye-sensitized solar cells. ...
Motivated by the recent report of broken time-reversal symmetry and zero momentum magnetic scattering in underdoped cuprates, we investigate under which circumstances orbital currents circulating inside a unit cell might be stabilized in extended Hubbard m ...
We present 100?% selectivity to p-chloroaniline through the continuous gas-phase (atmospheric pressure; T=393523 K) catalytic hydrogenation of p-chloronitrobenzene over an activated Cu?Al (molar Cu/Al ratio 3:1) hydrotalcite. The synthesis by continuous co ...
In addition to the well-established nucleophilic alkynylation, the use of electrophilic alkynes can expand tremendously the scope of acetylene transfer reactions. The use of metal catalysis has recently led to a rebirth of this research area. Halogenoalkyn ...
We report in situ trapping of a thiolated DNA duplex with eight base pairs into a polymer-protected gold nanogap device under near-physiological conditions. The double-stranded DNA was captured by electrophoresis and covalently attached to the nanogap elec ...
Large size high-quality Ca-doped Sr14-xCaxCu24O41 (x=12.2, 12.6 and 13) spin ladder superconducting single crystals were grown using a modified mirror floating zone furnace with oxygen pressure up to 35 bar. The qualities of the as-grown single crystals we ...
A new copper selenite chloride Cu-5(SeO3)(4)Cl-2 has been prepared by chemical vapor transport reactions. Its crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c with t ...
Four new bis(phosphino)amine ligands (Ph2P)2N-C6H3-R, where R = 3,5-OMe (1), 2,5-OMe (2), 2,4-OMe (3) or 3,4-OMe (4), were prepd. via aminolysis of the corresponding dimethoxyanilines with 2 equiv. of diphenylphosphine chloride in the presence of tri-Et am ...
