Abstract:
... Pressure-induced emission enhancement (PIEE) is a new phenomenon that has attracted widespread attention in the past few years for improving the solid-state emission efficiency of fluorophores. However, a thorny issue still remains in the study of PIEE. Thus, it is urgent and important to discover and design more PIEE systems for further enhancing the efficiency. In this paper, we found that triph ...

Abstract:
... We investigate the electric response of an electrolytic cell of water and KCl, limited by gold electrodes, to derive information on the role of the electrodes in the spectra of the real and imaginary parts of the electric impedance of the cell. Our experimental data can be interpreted by means of the Poisson–Nernst–Planck model with Ohmic boundary conditions for the electrodes, where the surface c ...

Abstract:
... Random and undirected forces are rectified in biological and synthetic systems using ratcheting mechanisms, which employ periodic asymmetric potentials and nonequilibrium conditions to produce useful transport. The density of motors or transported particles is known to strongly affect the nature and efficacy of transport in biological systems, as well as in synthetic ratchets and active swimmer sy ...

Abstract:
... Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in a silver (Ag) nanosphere dimer embedded in silicate glass was investigated using scanning transmission electron microscopy electron energy-loss spectroscopy (STEM–EELS). Passing the electron probe near the Ag nanospheres excited the LSPR in the multipole as well as the dipole. STEM–EELS analysis of the Ag dimer indicated that some LSPR coupling modes a ...

Abstract:
... Multiphase transport at a nanoscale level plays a key role in applications including drying of nanoporous materials and gas/oil recovery from low permeability rocks. A frequently encountered scenario in multiphase transport is the presence of droplets near nanopores. Whether droplets invade the nanopores or become trapped at their entrance greatly affects the operation of engineered systems. Here ...

Abstract:
... The intelligent addition of fluorine atoms in the chemical structure of conjugated polymers has been a popular approach to improve the efficiency of organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices. Recently, this strategy has been extended to nonfullerene acceptor (A) molecules in the best-performing bulk heterojunction (BHJ) devices. Yet, many details involved in the role of fluorination to enhance the photov ...

Abstract:
... Core/alloy-shell/shell quantum dots (CASS QDs) have been shown to exhibit excitation energy dependent PL efficiency. The magnitude of the normalized transient population has been shown to increase more than 5-fold with decreasing the excitation energy. For high energy excitation cooling of the exciton (predominantly electron) to band edge is much slower (rise time of ∼526 fs) in comparison to low ...

Abstract:
... Removing water from porous Vycor glass resolves the near-IR (NIR) spectrum revealing that the emissivity of nanoporous silicas derives from two energetically distinct silanol, SiOH(H₂O)ₓ, and siloxane, SiOSi(H₂O)y, surface sites. The occurrence of isosbestic points and emission lifetimes independent of a water content implies that these sites do not randomly interact with water but are associated ...
