We introduce a new low temperature (280 °C) parylene-C wafer bonding technique, where parylene-C bonds directly a Pyrex wafer to a silicon wafer with either a Si, SiO2 or Si3N4 surface with a bonding strength up to 23 MPa. The technique uses a single layer ...
The torsional barriers of 2'-substituted 2-arylpyridines have been probed experimentally (by using dynamic NMR spectroscopy) and computationally (by using density functional theory). Due to the compressibility of the lone pair, the torsional barriers of th ...
The direct functionalization of carbon-hydrogen bonds is an emerging tool to establish more sustainable and efficient synthetic methods. We present its implementation in a cascade reaction that provides a rapid assembly of functionalized indanylamines from ...
Dimethylaminonitrene complexes of IMesM+ (IMes = 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)- imidazol-2-ylidene; M = Cu, Ag, Au) were prepared in the gas phase and structurally characterized by high-resolution infrared spectroscopy of the cold species, ion-molecule re ...
A series of fluorescent imidazolium-based salts contg. the cation [AnCH2MeIm]+ (in which An=anthracene and Im=the imidazolium cation) with Cl-, BF4-, PF6-, SO3CF3-, [N(CN)2]-, [N(SO2CF3)2]-, or PhBF3- anions have been prepd. and characterized. X-ray diffra ...
Despite the widespread use and numerous successful applications of density functional theory, descriptions of hydrocarbon reaction energies remain problematic. Illustrative examples include large underestimation of energies associated with alkane bond sepa ...
This paper investigates the effects of temperature, thermal cycling and humidity on the structural response of SG-laminated reinforced glass beams (SG = SentryGlas®). To do so, a series of pull-out test (to investigate the bond strength of the SG interlaye ...
We use ab initio density functional calculations to investigate the structural stability and vibrational spectra of small boron aggregates in different charge states. In search of candidates for the largest stable 2D boron aggregates, we focus on systems w ...
The title compound, C5H10N2S5, was unintentionally obtained as the product of an attempted synthesis of a methyl-carbamodithioic acid using methylamine and carbon disulfide. In the molecule, two dithiocarbamate groups are bridged by a -CH2S- unit. The C-S- ...
Molecular junctions have been characterized to determine the influence of the metal contact formation in the electron transport process through a single molecule. With inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy and first-principles calculations, the vibrati ...
