Design and implementation of a flexible beamline for fs electron diffraction experiments

Fabrizio Carbone, Giulia Fulvia Mancini, Saverio Pagano

Ultrafast Electron Diffraction (UED) has been widely used to investigate the structural dynamics of molecules and materials. Femtosecond (fs) electron bunches are used to obtain diffraction images of a specimen upon photo-excitation by a temporally delayed ...

Ultraviolet-visible absorption of small silver clusters in neon: Ag-n (n=1-9)

Wolfgang Harbich, Sylvain Lecoultre, Alexandre Rydlo

We present optical absorption and fluorescence spectra in the UV-visible range of size selected neutral Ag-n clusters (n = 1-9) in solid neon. Rich and detailed optical spectra are found with linewidths as small as 50 meV. These spectra are compared to tim ...

Spatial inhomogeneity in RFeAsO1-xFx (R = Pr, Nd) determined from rare-earth crystal-field excitations

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Chao Wang

We report inelastic neutron-scattering measurements of crystal-field transitions in PrFeAsO, PrFeAsO0.87F0.13, and NdFeAsO0.85F0.15. Doping with fluorine produces additional crystal-field excitations, providing evidence that there are two distinct charge e ...

Investigation of the photoinduced electron injection processes for p-type triphenylamine-sensitized solar cells

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt

We have carried out theor. investigation aiming at modeling the assessment of mechanisms of photoinduced processes in a recent p-type org. metal-free dye derived from the triphenylamine (P-1) structure. In the P-1 system, one uses the triphenylamine moiety ...

The Graphene-Gold Interface and Its Implications for Nanoelectronics

Klaus Kern, Marko Burghard, Ravi Shankar Sundaram

We combine optical microspectroscopy and electronic measurements to study how gold deposition affects the physical properties of graphene. We find that the electronic structure, the electron-phonon coupling, and the doping level in gold-plated graphene are ...

Ultrafast Optical and X-ray Absorption Studies of Solvation Dynamics

Van Thai Pham

Solvation dynamics, the process of solvent reorganization upon electronic excitation of a solute, is central to our understanding chemical reactions in liquid phase. Ultrafast optical studies of solvation dynamics have so far been carried out on polyatomic ...

Nickel Complexes of a Pincer Amidobis(amine) Ligand: Synthesis, Structure, and Activity in Stoichiometric and Catalytic C—C Bond Forming Reactions of Alkyl Halides

Rosario Scopelliti, Xile Hu, Oleg Vechorkin

NiII complexes of the new pincer amidobis(amine) ligand are described. The Ni chloride complex catalyzes Kumada-Corriu-Tamao coupling of unactivated alkyl halides with alkyl Grignard reagents, as well as double C-C coupling of CH2Cl2 with alkyl Grignard re ...

Current and voltage ADC using a differential pair of single-electron bipolar avalanche transistors

Radivoje Popovic, Marc Lany

Single-electron bipolar avalanche transistors (SEBATs) enable current sensing by electron counting at room temperature. Here, differential SEBAT circuits combining the functions of amplification and analog-to-digital (A/D) conversion are proposed and chara ...
