Fe to Ru electron transfer is initiated by the inclusion of saturated bridging ligands into the β-cyclodextrin (CD) cavity of [2]rotaxane complexes and is observed as an intervalence charge transfer (IVCT) band in the electronic spectra. The rotaxanes are synthesized by using Ru and Fe complexes as stoppers, β-CD as the cyclic molecular head, and 4,4'-bipyridine derivatives with interrupted π-electron system as the bridging ligand between the metal centers.

Doped semiconductors can exhibit metallic-like properties ranging from superconductivity to tunable localized surface plasmon resonances. Diamond is a wide-bandgap semiconductor that is rendered electronically active by incorporating a hole dopant, boron. While the effects of boron doping on the electronic band structure of diamond are well-studied, any link between charge carriers and plasmons has never been shown.

Non-contact temperature sensors have gained immense popularity due to their inherent benefits, including the absence of physical interaction with targets and rapid response characteristics. In this work, KBaY(MoO):Pr was successfully synthesized utilizing a high-temperature solid-phase method. Experimental studies have indicated that multi-phonon relaxation (MPR), cross-relaxation (CR), and the unique intervalence charge transfer state (IVCT) exhibited by Pr-Mo contribute to the changes in luminescence properties.

A bis(triarylamine) (BTA) radical cation, bridged by two o-terphenylene moieties, was prepared and characterized to explore the impact of the double-π-bridge on the intramolecular charge/spin transfer process in the 2-site organic mixed-valence (MV) compound. Spectroscopic analyses on optically and thermally assisted intervalence charge-transfer (IVCT) processes revealed that the doubly π-bridging enhanced the charge delocalization between two nitrogen redox-active centers, whereas the electronic coupling was not so strengthened, in comparison with the singly π-bridging reference compound.

Article Synopsis
  • The excessive use of nitrate has caused environmental issues by accumulating in natural water, posing risks to human health.
  • Electrochemical NO reduction (eNORR) to ammonia offers a low-energy method for removing nitric oxide (NO), but traditional Cu-based catalysts experience performance degradation due to oxidation.
  • This study introduces a charge compensation strategy using Ti as a self-recycling electron donor to enhance the stability and efficiency of Cu-based eNORR catalysts, achieving a remarkable 95% NO removal rate during 30 hours of testing.

A photochromic dysprosium-based single-molecule magnet [Dy(CyPhPO)(HO)](PMoO) ⋅ 3CyPhPO⋅HO (1-Dy) is synthesized via cocrystal engineering of a polyoxomolybdate (POMo) anion and an Ising-type cation with pseudo pentagonal bipyramidal geometry. Upon ultraviolet irradiation, Mo-to-Mo single-electron photoreduction occurs in the POMo moiety, resulting in significant changes of optical and magnetic properties. The emergence of intervalence charge-transfer transitions in heteropoly blue state 1-Dy* facilitates photothermal conversion in near-infrared region.
