The spectroscopic characteristics of the α-ZnAl(2)S(4) wide bandgap semiconductor doped with Ti ions are investigated. It is shown, that the ZnAl(2)S(4):Ti spinel-type crystals exhibit luminescence in the IR spectral range 0.8-1.4 µm. The observed spectroscopic characteristics are assigned to the emission bands arising from the ligand -Ti(4+) charge transfer for octahedral sites of titanium that is in agreement with the experimental evidence for the absence of the EPR signal from Ti ions. A qualitative explanation of the experimental data is given.

Biodiesel is renewable energy source an alternative to conventional fossil fuels. The primary concern lies in detecting alcohol content in biodiesel, which can either be intentionally added by adulterants or remain in trace amounts from the refining process of biodiesel synthesis. In order to regulate the quality of biodiesel production, it is crucial to develop an analytical method for monitoring alcohol content in biodiesel.

The structural and chemical properties of metal nanoparticles are often dictated by their interactions with molecular ligand shells. These interactions are highly material-specific and can vary significantly even among elements within the same group or materials with similar crystal structure. In this study, we surveyed the heterogeneous interactions between an -terphenyl isocyanide ligand and Au and Ag nanoparticles (NPs) at the single-molecule limit.

In this work, the conventional melt quenching approach is used to synthesize the Pr doped NaF-BiO-BO-SiO (NBBS) glasses. The influence of Pr ions on their spectroscopic and structural characteristics in glass network is investigated. The amorphous nature of the samples has been amply verified by X-ray diffraction patterns.

The molecular interactions between nicotinamide (NA) and two fertilizers, potassium chloride (KCl) and diammonium hydrogen phosphate (DAP), were examined by density () and viscosity () measurements in order to investigate and analyze the solvation behavior that occurs in the ternary solutions (NA + KCl/DAP + water). All of these investigations were conducted at temperatures ranging from 293.

The natural products of 2,5-diketopiperazines have attracted considerable attention due to their potent pharmacological activities. Guided by genome mining techniques, five albonoursin analogues, designated as albocandins A-E (1-5), were isolated from sp. YINM00030, an actinomycete sourced from the rhizosphere soil of medicinal plants.
