Published: May 2019

Charge transfer in metallofullerene/porphyrin cocrystals is revealed for the first time. Originated from the different solvents for crystallization, distinct stacking manners are presented in the two types of cocrystals. It is demonstrated that intermolecular packing, next to the nature of the corresponding electron donors and acceptors, dominates the charge transfer processes.

A set of nCN/WO composites was synthesized through a simple thermal treatment for gold recovery from the simulated effluent of a non-cyanide-based plating bath. The obtained results exhibited that all nCN/WO composites demonstrated a higher photocatalytic activity for gold recovery than their pristine components due to the formation of nanocomposites which paved a convenient pathway for charge transfer. Among all synthesized composites, the 5.

In this study, a cyanine skeleton fluorescent parent core was designed based on the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) principle, and 2, 4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB) was used as the specific recognition site for phenylthiophene (PhSH). The probe showed a fluorescence transition from colorless to red under 410 nm excitation, which had the characteristics of fast response, high selectivity, low detection limit (55 nM), and the fluorescence intensity showed a positive linear correlation with PhSH concentration in the range of 0-100 μM (R = 0.9921).

Irradiation of condensed matter with ionizing radiation generally causes direct photoionization as well as secondary processes that often dominate the ionization dynamics. Here, large helium (He) nanodroplets with radius ≳ 40 nm doped with lithium (Li) atoms are irradiated with extreme ultraviolet (XUV) photons of energy hν ≥ 44.4 eV and indirect ionization of the Li dopants is observed in addition to direct photoionization of the He droplets.

Considering factors such as crustal reserves, atomic mass, redox potential and energy density, sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are regarded as the most promising alternative to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Transition metal-based layered oxides, especially typical NaMnO, stand out among cathode materials due to their low cost and high energy density. However, NaMnO cathodes face several challenges, including Jahn-Teller distortion, manganese dissolution, structural collapse, irreversible phase transition and significant capacity loss.

Polymers and dendrimers are macromolecules, possessing unique and intriguing characteristics, that are widely applied in self-assembled functional materials, green catalysis, drug delivery and sensing devices. Traditional approaches for the structural characterization of polymers and dendrimers involve DLS, GPC, NMR, IR and TG, which provide their physiochemical features and ensemble information, whereas their unimolecular conformation and dispersion also are key features allowing to understand their transporting profile in confined ionic nanochannels. This work demonstrates the nanopore approach for the determination of charged homopolymers, neutral block copolymer and dendrimers under distinct bias potentials and pH conditions.
