AI Article Synopsis
- The text discusses a method for efficiently releasing fluoride ions in water using UV light, achieving a high efficiency (Φ = 0.8).
- The process involves converting a specific chemical compound, 4-hydroxyphenacyl chromophore, into another compound, 4-hydroxyphenylacetate, through a reaction triggered by UV light.
- The practical use of this technique is showcased in the context of etching materials like mica and silicon using atomic force microscopy (AFM).
Article Abstract
The quantitative, efficient (Φ = 0.8) photorelease of the fluoride ion upon UV-irradiation in aqueous media is introduced. The 4-hydroxyphenacyl chromophore is simultaneously transformed into UV-transparent 4-hydroxyphenylacetate via a photo-Favorskii rearrangement. The application of this process is demonstrated by photoinduced etching of mica and silicon by AFM.
