Counterion-Mediated Crossing of the Cyanine Limit in Crystals and Fluid Solution: Bond Length Alternation and Spectral Broadening Unveiled by Quantum…
2020
Absorption spectra of cyanine⊕·Br⊖ salts show a remarkable solvent dependence in non/polar solvents, exhibiting narrow, sharp band shapes in dichloromethane but broad features in toluene; this chan...
High-energy radiation processing, a smart approach to obtain PVP-graft-AA nanogels
2014
Abstract Poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone)-grafted-acrylic acid biocompatible nanogels (NGs) were prepared using an exiting industrial-type electron accelerator and setups, starting from semi-dilute aqueous solutions of a commercial PVP and the acrylic acid monomer. As a result, NGs with tunable size and structure can be obtained quantitatively. Sterility was also imparted at the integrated dose absorbed. The chemical structure of the NGs produced was confirmed through Fourier Transformer Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR). The molecular and physico-chemical properties of NGs, such as the hydrodynamic dimensions and surface charge densities, for various polymer and monomer concentrations in the irradiate…

On the basis of an extended series of monodisperse oligomers of the dialkoxy-substituted phenyleneethenylenes 1a–i the Eqs. (3) and (4) were conceived in order to determine the limiting values of the energies Ei and the wavelengths λi of the UV/vis absorption. The convergence of the Ei, and λi values with a growing number n of repeating units permits a precise prediction of the Ei,∞ and λi,∞ values of the corresponding polymer 1j as well as a statement about the overall effect of conjugation ΔEi and the effective conjugation length ECL. A great variety of different conjugated oligomers 2–14 can be evaluated by the same algorithm.
Antimicrobial activity of methylene blue and toluidine blue O covalently bound to a modified silicone polymer surface
2009
Methylene Blue or Toluidine Blue O were covalently bound to an activated silicone polymer by means of an amide condensation reaction. UV-visible absorption spectra confirmed that the dye was surface bound. The new polymers with covalently attached dye display significant bactericidal activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus epidermidis with a 99.999% reduction in viable bacteria after four minutes exposure to a low power laser.

New insights for materials science characterisation using different complementary techniques combined with X-ray absorption Spectroscopy
2005
The combination of x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) with UV-Vis and Raman spectroscopies or with Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) has been recently carried out on the D44 beamline of DCI-LURE. The different set-ups used to perform such combinations are described and examples of combined investigations belonging to different field of materials science (coordination chemistry, sol-gel and catalysis) are presented.
Photoelectrical properties of indandione fragment containing azobenzene compounds
2014
Organic materials are becoming more popular due to their potential application in electronics. Low molecular weight materials possible produce from solution are in special consideration. It gives the possibility to avoid both thermal evaporation in vacuum, and use of polymers in thin film preparation process. Indandione fragment containing azobenzene compounds are one of such materials. These compounds are good candidates for use in design of novel molecular electronic devices due to their possibility to form amorphous structure from solution thus allowing developing flexible, small size systems with low production costs. In this work three indandione fragment containing azobenzene compound…
Optical Absorption of Zinc Selenide Doped with Cobalt (Zn1-xCoxSe) under Hydrostatic Pressure
2000
Optical absorption of the diluted magnetic semiconductor Zn 1-x Co x Se (x = 0.02) has been measured at room temperature under hydrostatic pressure up to 14 GPa in a membrane diamond-anvil cell. We found two absorption features: (i) an absorption structure in the energy range 1.5 to 1.8 eV, with a negligible pressure shift (i.e. (0.45 ± 0.05) meV/GPa) which we have identified as the Co 2+ (3d 7 ) internal transition 4 A 2 (F) → 4 T 1 (P) and (ii) an onset in the energy range 2 to 2.7 eV which redshifts with pressure (dE/dP = (-8.1 ± 0.6) meV/GPa). We have attributed such absorption edge to charge transfer between the ZnSe valence band and the Co 2+ (3d 7 ) levels. On the assumption that tho…
Absorption spectrum of the f(A1g) ← X(Eg), a(F2g) electronic transition of OsF6
1997
Abstract The absorption spectrum of the visible band of OsF 6 has been recorded using a commercial spectrophotometer. The first vibronic assignments for this band have been realized using the analogy with the d ← X transition of IrF 6 . Some vibronic parameter values are derived.
Erweiterte Konjugation in unsymmetrischen Stilbenylsquarainen
1998
Extended Conjugation in Stilbenylsquaraines Unsymmetrical 1-aryl-3-stilbenylsquaraines 2a–e and 1,3-bis(stilbenyl)squaraines 3a–c were prepared by CC coupling reactions of the corresponding substituted arenes with derivatives of squaric acid (Schemes 2 and 3). Dialkylamino and alkoxy groups enhance the solubility of these dyes and enlarge the intramolecular charge transfer of these donor–acceptor–donor systems. The extended conjugation of the stilbene units – in comparison with arene building blocks – leads to significant bathochromic shifts in the Vis/NIR absorption spectra.
