A general framework for non-exponential delayed fluorescence and phosphorescence decay analysis, illustrated on Protoporphyrin IX

Georges Wagnières, Jaroslava Joniová, Emmanuel Louis Arthur Gerelli, Aurelien Stephen Arnaud Gregor

Delayed fluorescence (DF) is a long-lived luminescence process used in a variety of applications ranging from oxygen sensing in biological tissues to organic Light Emitting Diodes. In common cases, DF results from the deexcitation of the first excited trip ...

Ultrafast Photoelectron and Optical Spectroscopies of Photoinduced Processes in Molecular Systems in Solution

Luca Longetti

Investigating molecular excitations with femtosecond time resolution is of pivotal importance to understand the out-of-equilibrium processes taking place in molecular systems upon light absorption. The photochemistry of solvated species is heavily determin ...

Role of OH Intermediates during the Au Oxide Electro-Reduction at Low pH Elucidated by Electrochemical Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy and Implicit Solvent Density Functional Theory

Nicola Marzari, Francesco Nattino

Molecular understanding of the electrochemical oxidation of metals and the electro-reduction of metal oxides is of pivotal importance for the rational design of catalyst-based devices where metal(oxide) electrodes play a crucial role. Operando monitoring a ...

A multi-scale time-resolved study of photoactivated dynamics in 5-benzyl uracil, a model for DNA/protein interactions

Majed Chergui, Enrico Pomarico, Mohammadhassan Valadan

We combine fluorescence up-conversion and time correlated single photon counting experiments to investigate the 5-benzyl uracil excited state dynamics in methanol from 100 fs up to several ns. This molecule has been proposed as a model for DNA/protein inte ...

Quantifying Electronic Phenomena in Organic Chromophores

Antonio Prlj

Challenging ground and excited state problems in the chemistry of common organic chromophores are investigated with state-of-the-art quantum chemical methods. We present a comprehensive excited state molecular dynamics analysis of (a) fundamental building ...

Accelerated methylene blue (MB) degradation by Fenton reagent exposed to UV or VUV/UV light in an innovative micro photo-reactor

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Mengkai Li

This study presents the accelerated discoloration/degradation of methylene blue (MB) in solution by Fenton reagent under exposure to ultraviolet (UV) or Vacuum-UV/UV (VUV/UV) light in an innovative micro photo-reactor. The MB degradation was kinetically fa ...

Fragmentation mechanism of UV-excited peptides in the gas phase

Thomas Rizzo, Michael Zachary Kamrath, Aleksandra Zabuga

We present evidence that following near-UV excitation, protonated tyrosine- or phenylalanine–containing peptides undergo intersystem crossing to produce a triplet species. This pathway competes with direct dissociation from the excited electronic state and ...

Dynamics of UV-excited, protonated peptides in the gas phase

Aleksandra Zabuga

The scope of this thesis is the electronically excited state dynamics of protonated peptides and their photofragmentation mechanism. UV radiation induces fragmentation of biological molecules and might cause various diseases, such as cataracts or skin canc ...
