Regioisomerism in cationic sulfonyl-substituted [Ir(C^N)2(N^N)]+ complexes: its influence on photophysical properties and LEC performance
2016
A series of regioisomeric cationic iridium complexes of the type [Ir(C^N)2(bpy)][PF6] (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) is reported. The complexes contain 2-phenylpyridine-based cyclometallating ligands with a methylsulfonyl group in either the 3-, 4- or 5-position of the phenyl ring. All the complexes have been fully characterized, including their crystal structures. In acetonitrile solution, all the compounds are green emitters with emission maxima between 493 and 517 nm. Whereas substitution meta to the Ir-C bond leads to vibrationally structured emission profiles and photoluminescence quantum yields of 74 and 77%, placing a sulfone substituent in a para position results in a broad, featureless em…
Toward a density functional description of liquid pH2.
2010
A finite-temperature density functional approach to describe the properties of parahydrogen in the liquid-vapor coexistence region is presented. The first proposed functional is zero-range, where the density-gradient term is adjusted so as to reproduce the surface tension of the liquid-vapor interface at low temperature. The second functional is finite-range and, while it is fitted to reproduce bulk pH2 properties only, it is shown to yield surface properties in good agreement with experiments. These functionals are used to study the surface thickness of the liquid-vapor interface, the wetting transition of parahydrogen on a planar Rb model surface, and homogeneous cavitation in bulk liquid…
Shell structure in large nonspherical metal clusters.
1992
Electronic shell structure of icosahedral and cuboctahedral sodium clusters with 300 to 1500 atoms has been studied using a potential-well approximation for the effective one-electron potential. The results show that icosahedral clusters yield the same shell structure as spherical clusters up to the cluster size of about 500 atoms and that similarities persist until the cluster has about 1000 atoms. The shell structure of a cuboctahedral geometry begins to deviate from that of a sphere when the cluster size is about 100. A study on quadrupole deformations of large clusters shows that surface fluctuations in liquid clusters cannot destroy the shell structure even in the largest clusters.
Dynamic carrier distribution in quantum wells modulated by surface acoustic waves
2001
We have investigated the dynamics of photogenerated carriers under surface acoustic wave (SAW) fields in GaAs quantum wells using spatially and time-resolved photoluminescence (PL). The frequency and phase of the PL oscillations under a SAW yield information about the carrier distribution and the band-gap modulation induced by the SAW. We directly prove that the transport properties of the carriers ultimately control their distribution, storage and, subsequent recombination in the modulated potential.
Assessment of soil particle erodibility and sediment trapping using check dams in small semi-arid catchments
2017
Check dams can be used as a source of information for studies on sediment characteristics and soil particle erodibility. In this study, sediment yield and grain size distribution (GSD) were measured in twenty small catchments draining into a rock check dam in NW Iran for different runoffs during 2010–2011. Significant correlations were found between sediment yield and slope steepness, vegetation cover and soil erodibility factor (K) of the catchments. The erodibility of soil particles was determined using the comparison of GSD between sediment and original soil. Clay was the most erodible soil particle which showed 2.05 times more percentage in sediment than the original soil. The erodibili…

Characterization of the bulk flow properties of industrial powders from shear tests
2020
Bulk flow properties from shear analysis of compacted powders can be evaluated following different approaches. Experimental values of shear stresses obtained by conventional shear cells are traditionally used to build yield loci, from which the most relevant flow properties could be found. Such flow properties play an important role in determining their performance under fluidization conditions. In this work, a useful app, named cYield, was developed by using the new Matlab&rsquo
Extraction of Antioxidant Compounds and Pigments from Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) Assisted by Pulsed Electric Fields and the Binary Mixture of …
2021
The application of pulsed electric fields (PEF) is an innovative extraction technology promoting cell membrane electroporation, thus allowing for an efficient recovery, from an energy point of view, of antioxidant compounds (chlorophylls, carotenoids, total phenolic compounds, etc.) from microalgae. Due to its selectivity and high extraction yield, the effects of PEF pre-treatment (3 kV/cm, 100 kJ/kg) combined with supplementary extraction at different times (5–180 min) and with different solvents (ethanol (EtOH)/H2O, 50:50, v/v
ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of (+)-Pechueloic Acid and (+)-Aciphyllene. Revision of the Structure of (+)-Aciphyllene.
2008
Abstract 1α H ,7α H ,10α H -Guaia-4,11-dien-3-one and its 1β H ,10β H diastereomer, easily obtained from (+)-dihydrocarvone, are good starting materials for the synthesis of natural guaiane derivatives. Allylic oxidation of the 1α H ,10α H isomer gave as main product its 13-hydroxy derivative and a small amount of (+)-7β-hydroxy-1α H ,10α H -guaia-4,11-dien-3-one, whereas the 1β H ,10β H diastereomer afforded selectively the (−)-7α-hydroxy-1β H ,10β H enantiomer in excellent yield. From the 13-hydroxy derivative (+)-pechueloic acid and (+)-methyl pechueloate were synthesized. Deoxygenation at C 3 of the 1β H ,10β H guaiadienone afforded a guaiadiene with the reported structure for aciphylle…
