Optimal control of an inhomogeneous spin ensemble coupled to a cavity
2018
We apply optimal control techniques to an inhomogeneous spin ensemble coupled to a cavity. A general procedure is proposed for designing the control strategies. We numerically show the extent to which optimal control fields robust against system uncertainties help enhancing the sensitivity of the detection process. The parameters of the numerical simulations are taken from recent Electron Spin Resonance experiments. The low and high cooperativity regimes are explored.
Refractive index change dependence on Ge(1) defects inγ-irradiated Ge-doped silica
2009
We present an experimental study regarding the effects of the $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ radiation on silica glass doped with Ge up to $10\text{ }000$ ppm molar produced by the sol-gel technique. We have determined the irradiation-induced changes in the refractive index $(\ensuremath{\Delta}n)$ as a function of the oxygen deficiency of the samples, evaluated from the ratio between the germanium lone pair centers (GLPC) and the Ge content. $\ensuremath{\Delta}n$ at 1500 nm have been estimated using optical-absorption spectra in the range 1.5--6 eV. We have found that $\ensuremath{\Delta}n$ is independent of Ge differences for GLPC/Ge values $l{10}^{\ensuremath{-}4}$, while it depends on Ge for la…
Aggregation behavior of amphiphilic p(HPMA)-co-p(LMA) copolymers studied by FCS and EPR spectroscopy.
2012
A combined study of fluorescence correlation spectroscopy and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy gave a unique picture of p(HPMA)-co-p(LMA) copolymers in aqueous solutions, ranging from the size of micelles and aggregates to the composition of the interior of these self-assembled systems. P(HPMA)-co-p(LMA) copolymers have shown high potential as brain drug delivery systems, and a detailed study of their physicochemical properties can help to elucidate their mechanism of action. Applying two complementary techniques, we found that the self-assembly behavior as well as the strength of hydrophobic attraction of the amphiphilic copolymers can be tuned by the hydrophobic LMA content or…

A Square-Planar Dinickel(II) Complex with a Noninnocent Dinucleating Oxamate Ligand: Evidence for a Ligand Radical Species
1999
[EN] The new bimetallic nickel(II) compound (PPh4)4[Ni2(2)]·6H2O (3), where H8[2] stands for N,N',N'',N'''-1,2,4,5-benzene-tetrayltetrakis(oxamic acid), has been synthesized and its crystal structure determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structure of 3 consists of [Ni2(n4:n4-2)]4- anions, tetraphenylphosphonium cations, and water molecules. Facile one-electron oxidation of the square-planar diamagnetic dinickel(II) complex [Ni2(n4:n4-2)]4- generates the metallo-radical species [Ni2(n4:n4-2·+)]3- with characteristic intra-ligand ¿cation radical transitions in the visible region (475-550 nm) as well as a typical quasi-isotropic EPR signal at g ¿ 2.0.
Porphyrin amino acids-amide coupling, redox and photophysical properties of bis(porphyrin) amides.
2013
New trans-AB2C meso-substituted porphyrin amino acid esters with meso-substituents of tunable electron withdrawing power (B = mesityl, 4-C6H4F, 4-C6H4CF3, C6F5) were prepared as free amines 3a-3d, as N-acetylated derivatives Ac-3a-Ac-3d and corresponding zinc(II) complexes Zn-Ac-3a-Zn-Ac-3d. Several amide-linked bis(porphyrins) with a tunable electron density at each porphyrin site were obtained from the amino porphyrin precursors by condensation reactions (4a-4d) and mono- and bis(zinc(II)) complexes Zn(2)-4d and Zn(1)Zn(2)-4d were prepared. The electronic interaction between individual porphyrin units in bis(porphyrins) 4 is probed by electrochemical experiments (CV, EPR), electronic abso…
Greatly enhanced intermolecular π-dimer formation of a porphyrin trimer radical trications through multiple π bonds.
2010
A trefoil-like porphyrin trimer linked by triphenylamine (TPA-TPZn(3)) was synthesized. A three-electron oxidation of TPA-TPZn(3) forms a radical trication (TPA-TPZn(3)(3+)), in which each porphyrin ring undergoes a one-electron oxidation. The radical trication TPA-TPZn(3)(3+) spontaneously dimerizes to afford (TPA-TPZn(3))(2)(6+) in CH(2)Cl(2) . The characteristic charge-resonance band due to the charge delocalization over the π system of (TPA-TPZn(3))(2)(6+) was observed in the NIR region. The initial oxidation potential of TPA-TPZn(3) is negatively shifted relative to that of the corresponding monomer porphyrin, which results from the stabilization of the oxidized state of TPA-TPZn(3) as…
Radical cations of vitamin E
2002
Radical cations of vitamin E compounds (α-, β-, γ- and δ-tocopherols and α-, β-, γ- and δ-tocotrienols) were for the first time successfully prepared in different solvents. Their unpaired electron distribution was solved by means of EPR and ENDOR spectroscopy and assignment of isotropic hyperfine couplings was performed. The isotropic hyperfine coupling constants calculated theoretically (UB3LYP) were comparable to those studied experimentally. Radical cations were observed to exist as an intermediate product in the formation of the neutral radical. Moreover, loosening the proton from the radical cation of α-tocopherol and from α-tocotrienol produced the neutral radical, which was detected …
ESR, electrochemical and cyclodextrin-inclusion studies of triazolopyridyl pyridyl ketones and dipyridyl ketones derivatives.
2008
Abstract The electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of free radicals obtained by electrolytic reduction of triazolopyridyl pyridyl ketones and dipyridyl ketones derivatives were measured in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). The hyperfine patterns indicate that the spin density delocalization is dependent of the rings presented in the molecule. The electrochemistry of these compounds was characterized using cyclic voltammetry, in DMSO as solvent. When one carbonyl is present in the molecule one step in the reduction mechanism was observed while two carbonyl are present two steps were detected. The first wave was assigned to the generation of the correspondent free radical species, and the second wave…
