Complexation of [Gd(DTTA–Me)(H2O)2]− by Fluoride and Its Consequences to Water Exchange

Lothar Helm, Loïck Moriggi, Shima Karimi, Gail Ruth Hunter

The displacement of water molecule(s) from the inner coordination sphere of [Gd(DTTA–Me)(H2O)2]− (DTTA = ethylenetriamine-N,N,N″,N″-tetraacetate) by fluoride has been studied by multinuclear NMR relaxation (1H, 17O, 19F) and DFT calculations. Fluoride anio ...

Lanthanide light for biology and medical diagnosis

Jean-Claude Bünzli

Optical imaging emerges as a vital component of the various techniques needed to meet the stringent requirements of modern bioanalysis and bioimaging. Lanthanide luminescent bioprobes (LLBs) have greatly contributed to this field during the past 35 years b ...

Stochastic learning and control in multiple coordinate systems

Sylvain Calinon

A probabilistic interpretation of model predictive control is presented, enabling extensions to multiple coordinate systems. The resulting controller follows a minimal intervention principle, by learning and retrieving movements through the coordination of ...

Fe N-Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes as Promising Photosensitizers

Yizhu Liu

The photophysics and photochemistry of transition metal complexes (TMCs) has long been a hot field of interdisciplinary research. Rich metal-based redox processes, together with a high variety in electronic configurations and excited-state dynamics, have r ...

Complex Magnetic Exchange Coupling between Co Nanostructures and Ni(111) across Epitaxial Graphene

Harald Brune, François Patthey, Stefano Rusponi, Marina Pivetta, Pietro Gambardella, Fabio Donati

We report on the magnetic coupling between isolated Co atoms as well as small Co islands and Ni(111) mediated by an epitaxial graphene layer. X-ray magnetic circular dichroism and scanning tunneling microscopy combined with density functional theory calcul ...

Water exchange studies of lanthanide complexes and aqua ions

Shima Karimi

Complexes of lanthanide (III) ions have been used in structural studies of biomolecules and as contrast agents (CA). Clinically approved CAs have only one water molecule in their first coordination sphere. Structure and water exchange rate of these complex ...

In a demanding task, three-handed manipulation is preferred to two-handed manipulation

Hannes Bleuler, Mohamed Bouri, Etienne Burdet, Elahe Abdi

Equipped with a third hand under their direct control, surgeons may be able to perform certain surgical interventions alone; this would reduce the need for a human assistant and related coordination difficulties. However, does human performance improve wit ...

Hydrophilic Interaction Between Low-Coordinated Au and Water: H2O/Au(310) Studied with TPD and XPS

Maarten Eduard van Reijzen

In this work, we study the relatively weak H2O Au interaction on the highly stepped and anisotropic (310) surface with temperature-programmed desorption and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Compared to Au(111), we report an enhanced adsorption energy of H ...

Temperature-dependent self-assembly of NC–Ph5–CN molecules on Cu(111)

Harald Brune, Marina Pivetta, Edgar Fernandes, Giulia Elisabetta Pacchioni

We present the results of temperature-dependent self-assembly of dicarbonitrile-pentaphenyl molecules (NC-Ph-5-CN) on Cu(111). Our low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy study reveals the formation of metal-organic and purely organic structures, dep ...

Competing Interactions in the Self-Assembly of NC-Ph-3-CN Molecules on Cu(111)

Harald Brune, Marina Pivetta, Giulia Elisabetta Pacchioni

We report on low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy measurements on NC-Ph-3-CN molecules adsorbed at 300 K on a Cu(111) surface. Upon cooling, the molecules form chain and honeycomb structures, incorporating Cu adatoms supplied by t ...
