Enhanced Surface Ligands Reactivity of Metal Clusters by Bulky Ligands for Controlling Optical and Chiral Properties.

2021

Surface ligands play critical roles in determining the surface properties of metal clusters. However, modulating the properties and controlling the surface structure of clusters through surface‐capping agent displacement remain a challenge. In this work, a silver cluster, [Ag 14 (SPh(CF 3 ) 2 ) 12 (PPh 3 ) 4 (DMF) 4 ] ( Ag 14 ‐DMF , where HSPh(CF 3 ) 2 is 3,5‐bis(trifluoromethyl)benzenethiol, PPh 3 is triphenylphosphine and DMF is N,N‐Dimethylformamide), with weakly coordinated DMF ligands on the surface silver sites, was synthesized by using a mixed ligands strategy (bulky thiolates, phosphines and small solvents). The as‐prepared Ag 14 ‐DMF is a racemic mixture of chiral molecules. Owing …

Surface Coordination of Multiple Ligands Endows N‐Heterocyclic Carbene‐Stabilized Gold Nanoclusters with High Robustness and Surface Reactivity

2020

Deciphering the molecular pictures of the multi-component and non-periodic organic-inorganic interlayer is a grand technical challenge. Here we show that the atomic arrangement of hybrid surface ligands on metal nanoparticles can be precisely quantified through comprehensive characterization of a novel gold cluster, Au 44 ( i Pr 2 -bimy) 9 (PA) 6 Br 8 , which features three types of ligands, namely, carbene (1,3-diisopropylbenzimidazolin-2-ylidene, i Pr 2 -bimy), alkynyl (phenylacetylide, PA), and halide (Br), respectively. The delicately balanced stereochemical effects and bonding capabilities of the three ligands give rise to peculiar geometrical and electronic structures. Remarkably, des…

Accelerated transport and growth with symmetrized dynamics

2013

In this paper we consider a model of accelerated dynamics with the rules modified from those of the recently proposed [Dong et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 130602 (2012)] accelerated exclusion process (AEP) such that particle-vacancy symmetry is restored to facilitate a mapping to a solid-on-solid growth model in $1+1$ dimensions. In addition to kicking a particle ahead of the moving particle, as in the AEP, in our model another particle from behind is drawn, provided it is within the ``distance of interaction'' denoted by ${\ensuremath{\ell}}_{\mathrm{max}}$. We call our model the doubly accelerated exclusion process (DAEP). We observe accelerated transport and interface growth and widening …

Shoot accumulation of several trace elements in native plant species from contaminated soils in the Peruvian Andes

2012

Abstract Metal mining gives access to very important resources but contributes to severe and diverse environmental problems. Until recently, little has been known about the remediation of mining sites in Latin America using metallophytes. The present study was designed to identify and characterize spontaneously growing heavy metal tolerant plant species in the area around the polymetallic Carolina mine in Hualgayoc (Cajamarca, Peru). The aim was to find species that are potentially useful for phytoremediation. Plants and soils were sampled and analysed for concentrations of As, Fe, Mn, Pb, Zn and Ti. The Translocation Factor (TF) and the Bioaccumulation Factor (BF) were determined and used …

Unraveling the Role of the Rh–ZrO2 Interface in the Water–Gas-Shift Reaction via a First-Principles Microkinetic Study

2018

The industrially important water–gas-shift (WGS) reaction is a complex network of competing elementary reactions in which the catalyst is a multicomponent system consisting of distinct domains. Herein, we have combined density functional theory calculations with microkinetic modeling to explore the active phase, kinetics, and reaction mechanism of the WGS over the Rh–ZrO2 interface. We have explicitly considered the support and metal and their interface and find that the Rh–ZrO2 interface is far more active toward WGS than Rh(111) facets, which are susceptible to CO poisoning. CO2 forming on the zirconia support rapidly transforms into formate. These findings demonstrate the central role of…

Gobio Genus Species Integrated Management System – Târnava Rivers Study Case (Transylvania, Romania)

2019

Abstract The lotic habitats quality indicative congeners species Gobio gobio, Gobio kessleri and Gobio albipinnatus populations’ dynamic in time (2004-2019) and space revealed a decreasing trend in these rivers ecological status. The ADONIS:CE tool has been used to build a backing management system model, based on these indicative fish species habitat needs, indicators for favourable conservation status, pressures and threats. This management system implementation in the field will favour the amelioration of lotic habitats and the ecological status recovering of two of the local fish species of conservative interest (G. kessleri and G. albipinnatus).

Abstrakti luokka vai rajapinta uudelleenkäytettävyyden näkökulmasta

2013

Tämä kandidaatintutkielma on kirjallisuuskatsaus. Tutkielman tutkimuskysymys on, tarjoaako abstrakti luokka paremman uudelleenkäytettävyyden kuin rajapinta. Tutkielmassa noudatettiin EBSE-menetelmää. Tutkielmassa havaitaan, että kuluja, joita syntyy ohjelmistokehityksessä voidaan vähentää uudelleenkäyttämällä ohjelmakoodia. Tutkielmassa saatiin tulokseksi, että uudelleenkäytettävyyttä edistävät kapselointi, matala kytkösaste, korkea koheesio ja perintä. Uudelleenkäytettävyyttä haittaa heikko ymmärrettävyys. Perintä ja koostaminen ovat keinoja, joilla koodia voidaan uudelleenkäyttää. Tutkielmassa havaittiin, että abstraktin luokan ja rajapinnan keskeisin ero on se, että abstraktilla luokalla…

Analyyttinen jatke ja Riemannin pinnat

2014

Tämän tutkielman tavoitteena on esittää, miten analyyttisen funktion määrittelyjoukko laajennetaan Riemannin pinnaksi, joka sisältää informaation kaikista funktion analyyttisistä jatkeista kompleksitasossa. Tätä Riemannin pintaa sanotaan kyseisen analyyttisen funktion Riemannin pinnaksi. Konstruktiota varten täytyy ensin tarkastella analyyttisen jatkeen käyttäytymistä kompleksitasossa, Riemannin pintojen ja kompleksitason välistä yhteyttä sekä perusryhmän ja peitteiden käyttäytymistä Riemannin pintojen kontekstissa. Erityisesti tarkastellaan miten useat kompleksianalyysin perustulokset yleistyvät suoraan Riemannin pinnoille ja Riemannin pintojen analyyttisille funktioille sekä sitä, milloin…
