Absorption Complex between Porphyrin and Phenothiazine in Reverse Micelles

Porphyrin derivatives attract much more interest in photodynamic therapy (PDT). Their importance as therapeutic drugs and targeting agents has been widely recognized1, and many of the efforts have been put towards crafting new porphyrin-based molecular entities to achieve enhanced tumor localization, better tissue penetration and increased singlet oxygen quantum yield2. The states of porphyrins in tissue models such as micelles, lipid bilayers are extensively investigated focusing more or l…     

The effect of ITO films thickness on the properties of flexible organic light emitting diode

Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films were deposited on cyclic olefin copolymer substrate at room temperature by an inverse target sputtering system. The crystal structure and the surface morphology of the deposited ITO films were examined by X-ray diffraction and atomic force microscopy, separately. The electrical properties of the conductive films were explored by four-point probing. Visible spectrometer was used to measure the optical properties of ITO-coated films. The performance of the flexible organic light emitting diode device with different thickness anode was investigated in this study.     

The chemisorption of pentacene on Si(0 0 1)-2 × 1

Adsorption structures of the pentacene (C₂₂H₁₄) molecule on the clean Si(0 0 1)-2 × 1 surface were investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) in conjunction with density functional theory calculations and STM image simulations. The pentacene molecules were found to adsorb on four major sites and four minor sites. The adsorption structures of the pentacene molecules at the four major sites were determined by comparison between the experimental and the simulated STM images. Three out of the four theoretically identified adsorption structures are different from the previously proposed adsorption structures. They involve six to eight Si-C covalent chemical bonds. The adsorption energies of the major four structures are calculated to be in the range 67-128 kcal/mol. It was also found that the pentacene molecule hardly hopped on the surface when applying pulse bias voltages on the molecule, but was mostly decomposed.     

Spectroscopy of the regenerative soot

The mechanisms and processes of the formation of the regenerative soot in a graphite hollow cathode discharge that produces and emits carbon clusters are presented. Mass spectrometry with a specially designed E×B velocity filter analyzes the entire range of the charged clusters from C ₁ to ∼C ₄₃₀₀. The state of the carbon vapour within the source is evaluated by using the characteristic line emissions from the carbonaceous discharge whose formative mechanisms depend upon the kinetic and potential sputtering of the sooted cathode. The carbonaceous discharge generates atomic and ionic C and its clusters C _m (m≥ 2), noble gas metastable atoms and ions, energetic electrons and photons in the cavity of the graphite hollow cathode. The parameters of soot formation and its recycling depend critically on the discharge parameters, the geometry of the hollow cathode and 3D profile of the cusp magnetic field contours.

Photo-Absorption and photochemical decomposition of copper and alkaline-earth ß-diketonates as source gases of high-Tc superconducting films

For low-temperature deposition of oxide films relating to Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O superconductors, photo-absorption and -decomposition properties were examined with respect to copper and alkaline-earth ß-diketonates. It was confirmed that all ß-diketonates examined were promising as source materials for photochemical vapour deposition (photo-CVD) using a low-pressure mercury lamp, in view of their large light absorption coefficients at wavelength 254 nm. The light irradiation was effective for the formation of highly crystalline oxide films at temperatures below 600 °C. By combining two sources, Ca₂CuO₃ and SrCuO₂ films were prepared. Photo-CVD of c-axis oriented Bi₂Sr₂CuO_x film was achieved by the irradiation of ternary sources of Bi(C₆H₅)₃ and strontium and copper ß-diketonates at 500 °C.     

A fast atom bombardment mass spectrometric analysis of crown ether complexes [1]

Analyses of crown ether complexes of alkali metal ions and characterization of the complexes formed inm-nitrobenzyl alcohol have been carried out by fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectrometry. By using m-nitrobenzyl alcohol as a matrix for measurements, the stoichiometry of the complexes was assessed on the basis of the observed FAB peaks. In addition, the formation of crown ether-alkali metal complexes at a 2 : 1 molar ratio was enhanced by increasing the ionic radius of the metal ion in agreement with previous observations. On these grounds, FAB mass spectrometry may provide a rapid means for investigation of the complexation behavior of crown ethers and the stoichiometry of the complexes.

On the topological representation of catalytic cycles with nonlinear steps

Reaction route analysis is applied to visualize reaction networks in several heterogeneous catalytic reactions. Combination of the theory of complex reactions with the notion of catalytic cycles results in a topological representation of complex mechanisms with the nodes comprising all possible surface species including free sites and branches indicating interconnections between reactions.
