Iron containing ZSM-5 zeolites is extremely active in nitrous oxide decomposition. This reaction involves atomic oxygen species known as "alpha oxygen" on iron sites. Despite the multiple techniques devoted to its characterization, the active sites' struct ...
CsI thin film photocathodes of 600 nm thickness deposited on polished Al surfaces by resistive evaporation technique were studied by angle-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (ARXPS), before and after UV-irradiation under vacuum. It is shown that the ...
Bacterial inactivation by TiO2, Cu and TiO2/Cu DC-magnetron sputtered thin films was systematically investigated in the dark and under low intensity visible/actinic light. Low intensity actinic light led to a fast 6log10 (complete) bacterial inactivation w ...
The adsorption of trimesic acid (TMA) on Cu(110) has been studied in the temperature range between 130 and 550 K and for coverages up to one monolayer. We combine scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), low-energy electron diffraction (LEED), reflection absor ...
Proton insertion in polycryst. tungsten oxide has been studied with photoelectron spectroscopy and semi-empirical calcns. The W 4f spectra show growth of W5+ and W4+ oxidn. states as a function of inserted proton content in the crystal lattice. A concomita ...
The environment is important for the exact course of a chemical reaction. As an example of the strong influence of the environment on the reaction, this work studies the isomerization reaction of the chromophore retinal in the binding pocket of the protein ...
We apply gas-phase double resonance spectroscopic techniques to two helical peptides, Ac-Phe-(Ala)5-Lys-H+ and Ac-Phe- (Ala)10-Lys-H+, using electrospray ionization combined with photofragmentation in a cold, 22-pole ion trap. Despite the large size of the ...
The three-dimensional (3D) structures of proteins and peptides in vivo largely determine their biological functions. In vitro these native structures and their heterogeneity reflect a subtle balance between noncovalent intramolecular interactions and those ...
A novel C-Nafton/Fe-ion structured fabric capable of mediating Orange II decomposition in Fenton-immobilized photoassisted reactions is presented. The catalyst preparation requires the right balance between the amount of the Nafion necessary to protect the ...
The bacterial inactivation of Escherichia coli on Ag–cotton textiles were investigated under different experimental conditions with novel Ag-nanoparticles fixed on cotton textiles. The evaluation of the bactericide performance of the Ag–cotton was compared ...
