Synthesis of molecular complexes for small molecule activation

The redox chemistry of f-elements is drawing the attention of inorganic chemists due to their unusual reaction pathways. Notably low-valent f-element complexes have been shown to be able to activate small molecules such as CO2 and N2 in mild conditions. Co ...

Unraveling the Dual Character of Sulfur Atoms on Sensitizers in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Peng Gao, Thomas Moehl, Joël Teuscher, Aswani Yella, Sadig Aghazada

Cyclometalated ruthenium sensitizers have been synthesized that differ with number of thiophene units on the auxiliary ligands. Sensitizers possessing four (SA25, SA246, and SA285) or none (SA282) sulfur atoms in their structures, were tested in solar cell ...

Structural and Functional Imaging of Pancreatic Islets using Optical Coherence Microscopy

Corinne Berclaz

In diabetes, pancreatic beta-cells play a key role. These cells are organized within structures called islets of Langerhans inside the pancreas and produce insulin. Insulin is one of the main hormones contributing to glucose homeostasis, which is the hallm ...

Homogenous catalytic hydrogenation of bicarbonate with water soluble aryl phosphine ligands

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Katerina Stefania Sordakis

The chemical transformation of CO2 and bicarbonates into useful products becomes increasingly impor- tant as the atmospheric CO2 level has reached 400 ppm. Here a small library of sulfonated aryl mono- phosphines and aryl diphosphines was tested as stabili ...

The use of selected neutron absorption resonance filters to suppress spurious events on hot neutron spectrometers

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Diane Virginie Marie Lançon

Resonant absorption can be used as a filter for high energy neutron spectroscopy. Here we report the transmission of eight thin foil filters: erbium, indium, iridium, dysprosium, hafnium, gadolinium, cadmium and samarium, measured using neutron time-of-fli ...

Doping characteristics of iodine on as-grown chemical vapor deposited graphene on Pt

Olivier Renault, Hokwon Kim, Nicolas Chevalier

Using laboratory X-ray photoelectron emission microscopy (XPEEM), we investigated the doping efficiency and thermal stability of iodine on as-grown graphene on Pt. After iodine adsorption of graphene in saturated vapor of I-2, monolayer and bilayer graphen ...

Study of the Ne(3P2) + CH3F Electron-Transfer Reaction below 1 K

Andreas Osterwalder, Justinas Jankunas, Benjamin Bertsche

Relatively little is known about the dynamics of electron-transfer reactions at low collision energy. We present a study of Penning ionization of ground-state methyl fluoride molecules by electronically excited neon atoms in the 13 μeV–4.8 meV (150 mK–56 K ...

A Fully Dynamic Universal Accumulator

Serge Vaudenay, Atefeh Mashatan

A dynamic universal accumulator is an accumulator that allows one to efficiently compute both membership and nonmembership witnesses in a dynamic way. It was first defined and instantiated by Li et al., based on the Strong RSA problem, building on the dyna ...

Oxidation of Manganese(II) during Chlorination: Role of Bromide

Urs von Gunten

The oxidation of dissolved manganese(II) (Mn(II)) during chlorination is a relatively slow process which may lead to residual Mn(II) in treated drinking waters. Chemical Mn(II) oxidation is autocatalytic and consists of a homogeneous and a heterogeneous pr ...
