Chemiluminescence, i.e. the emission of light from a chemical reaction, offers interesting opportunities for developing point-of-care biosensors. However, commercially available systems are expensive, bulky, and primarily addressed to laboratory usage. The ...
The research proposal describes the spectroscopic technique to study the intermediate state of protonated peptides formed after the UV excitation. It was shown previously that with the assistance of the CO2 laser the side chain loss fragmentation was enhan ...
Two molecules containing two phenylphosphaalkene moieties linked by an anthracene (1) or by a naphthalene (2) ring have been synthesized and their crystal structures have been determined. While electrochemical measurements show that these two systems are e ...
The mechanism of reaction between NO and two models of carbonaceous materials with active sites was investigated at the UB3LYP/6-31 + G(d) and UM06-2X theory levels. The small model is the anthracene radical and the large one is also a monoradical built wi ...
The influence of IrO2 loading on the effectiveness factor Et of the electrochemical oxidation of isopropanol was investigated A model has been proposed based on three main reactions electrochemical IrO2 oxidation to IrO3 chemical oxidation of the organic c ...
The ability to visualize molecular structure in the course of a chemical reaction or a biological function has been a dream of scientists for decades. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is ideal in this respect because it is chemically selective and can b ...
A software tool for the simulation of one-dimensional unsaturated flow and solute transport together with biogeochemical reactions in the vadose zone was developed by integrating a numerical solution of Richards' equation into the geochemical modelling fra ...
Ultrafast X-ray absorption spectroscopy is a powerful tool to observe electronic and geometric structures of short-lived reaction intermediates. The ab initio FEFF9 code is applied to simulate the Pt L-3-edge XANES spectrum of the photocatalytic diplatinum ...
The need to visualize molecular structure in the course of a chemical reaction, a phase transformation or a biological function has been a dream of scientists for decades. The development of time-resolved X-ray and electron-based methods is making this tru ...
Over the last decade, ultrafast time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) has evolved to be now a mature and well-established experimental technique, giving extremely detailed information about the local geometrical and electronic structure in the ...
