A Multiple-Temperature Model is proposed to describe the flash laser irradiation of a single layer of graphene. Zhukovsky's mathematical approach is applied to solve the Fourier heat equations based upon quantum concepts, including heat operators. Easy solutions were inferred with respect to classical mathematics. Thus, simple equations were set for the electrons and phonon temperatures in the case of flash laser treatment of a single layer of graphene. Our method avoids the difficulties and extensive time-consuming nonequilibrium green function method or quantum field theories when applied in a condensed matter. Simple expressions were deduced that could prove useful for researchers.

The light-sensing activity of phytochromes is based on the reversible light-induced switching between two isomerization states of the bilin chromophore. These photo-transformations may not necessarily be only unidirectional, but could potentially branch back to the initial ground state in a thermally driven process termed shunt. Such shunts have been rarely reported, and thus our understanding of this process and its governing factors are limited.

This study investigates the fabrication of phase change material-poly(butylene adipate--terephthalate) (PCM-PBAT) composites through melt blending techniques, focusing on the impact of isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) treatment on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) treatment on aluminum nitride (AlN) particles. Analysis of mechanical properties highlights an enhancement in tensile strength with APTES-treated AlN particles, while dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) reveals an increase in stiffness. Laser flash analysis (LFA) investigation demonstrates a significant increase, up to 325%, in thermal conductivity compared to PCM-PBAT composites without filler.

The design of a new visible-light methacrylated-based kraft lignin photosensitizer (MAcL) of iodonium salt (Iod) for the free-radical polymerization (FRP) of polyethylene glycol dimethacrylate (PEGDMA) under LEDs@405, 455, 470, 505, and 530 nm is reported. As demonstrated by laser flash photolysis (LFP) and electron paramagnetic resonance spin-trapping (EPR ST) experiments, the combination of MAcL with an electron acceptor (Iod) and trimethylolpropane tris(3-mercaptopropionate) (TT) used as a crosslinker, leads to the formation of highly efficient initiating radicals, i.e.

Photophysical and photochemical studies were carried out to examine the photoreactivity of etheno adducts, 1,N-ethenoadenine (εdA) and 1,N-ethenoguanine (εdG), in the presence of two well-known photosensitizers acting by Type I and/or Type II mechanisms such as 4-carboxybenzophenone (CBP) and rose Bengal (RB), respectively. Steady-state photolysis experiments combined with HPLC and mass spectroscopy measurements lead to photoproducts that correspond to the repaired nucleosides. To determine the mechanism of this photooxidation processes, phosphorescence spectroscopy, direct detection of singlet oxygen luminescence and laser flash photolysis were carried out.

Photosystem II (PSII) is a unique natural catalyst that converts solar energy into chemical energy using earth abundant elements in water at physiological pH. Understanding the reaction mechanism will aid the design of biomimetic artificial catalysts for efficient solar energy conversion. The MnOCa cluster cycles through five increasingly oxidized intermediates before oxidizing two water molecules into O and releasing protons to the lumen and electrons to drive PSII reactions.
