The spatial distributions of desorbing products were examined in 193 nm photo-induced reactions in O2 + CO adlayers on stepped Pt(112) = [(s)3(111) x (001)]. At high coverage of O2(a) and CO(a), both O2 and CO2 desorption collimated closely along the (111) terrace normal. The results were compared with those in thermal CO oxidation, and the origin of the collimation angle shift in the latter is discussed. On the other hand, at low CO(a) coverage, O2 and CO2 desorption collimated in inclined ways in the plane along the surface trough. At these collimation positions, the kinetic energy of desorbing 02 and CO2 was maximal, confirming the hot-atom collision mechanism.

Enhancing the Properties of Photo-Generated Metallized Nanocomposite Coatings through Thermal Annealing.

Nanomaterials (Basel)

January 2024

Univ. d'Orléans, Conditions Extrêmes Matériaux Haute Température et Irradiation CNRS UPR 3079, F-45000 Orléans, France.

In this work, the effect of thermal annealing on silver nanoparticles@polymer (AgNPs@polymer) nanocomposite coatings was investigated. These photo-generated metallized coatings have a spatial distribution of metal nanoparticles, with a depth-wise decrease in their concentration. During annealing, both structural and morphological variations, as well as a spatial reorganization of AgNPs, were observed, both at the surface and in the core of the AgNPs@polymer coating.

A highly efficient lanthanide coordination polymer luminescent material for the multi-task detection of environmental pollutants.

It is challenging to explore novel-structure lanthanide coordination polymers (Ln-CPs) for sensing environmental pollutants. Herein, we designed and synthesized an organic bridging linker 3-(carboxymethoxy)-1-(carboxymethyl) pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid (Hccpc), and then successfully prepared and characterized a novel Ln-CP, namely [Tb(ccpc)(HO)]·1.5HO ().

Microplastics are persistent pollutants that accumulate in the environment and can cause serious toxicity to mammals. At present, few technologies are able to quantitatively detect chemicals and provide morphological information simultaneously. Herein, we developed a dragonfly-wing-mimicking ZnO nanorod array decorated with AgNPs on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and photo-induced enhanced Raman spectroscopy (PIERS) substrate for trace analysis of microplastics.

We provide experimental evidence for the influence of the molecular structure of the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) on the photoalignment process in three dimensions at the interface with a polymer layer. In particular, the experimental findings are explained through the presence (or absence) of the π-π aromatic interactions between the NLC and the polymer. The influence of the nematic-to-smectic A phase transition on the photocontrol is also addressed.

Tailored synthesis of nanographenes, and especially graphene nanoribbons (GNR), has been achieved on metal substrates a bottom-up approach from organic precursors, which paves the way to their application in nanoelectronics and optoelectronics. Since quantum confinement in nanographenes leads to the creation of peculiar band structures, strongly influenced by their topological characteristics, it is important to be able to exactly engineer them in order to precisely tune their electronic, optical and magnetic properties. However practical application of these materials requires post-synthesis transfer to insulating substrates.
