Year-round trace gas measurements in the central Arctic during the MOSAiC expedition

Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck, Hélène Paule Angot

Despite the key role of the Arctic in the global Earth system, year-round in-situ atmospheric composition observations within the Arctic are sparse and mostly rely on measurements at ground-based coastal stations. Measurements of a suite of in-situ trace g ...

A hybrid erbium(III)-bacteriochlorin near-infrared probe for multiplexed biomedical imaging

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Fan Zhang

Spectrally distinct fluorophores are desired for multiplexed bioimaging. In particular, monitoring biological processes in living mammals needs fluorophores that operate in the 'tissue-transparent' near-infrared (NIR) window, that is, between 700 and 1,700 ...

Sub-50-fs photoinduced spin crossover in [Fe(bpy)(3)](2+)

Majed Chergui, Gerald Auböck

It is known that excitation by visible light of the singlet metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (1MLCT) states of Fe(II) complexes leads to population of the lowest-lying high-spin quintet state (T-5) with unity quantum yield. Here we investigate this so-calle ...

Encapsulation of Conjugated Oligomers in Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes: Towards Nanohybrids for Photonic Devices

Cécile Hébert, Barbora Bártová

Visible-light emitting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs)/organic hybrids have been successfully synthesized and promise to be a photon source to be used in future optoelectronic devices. The nanohybrids are "peapods" having sexithiophene molecules ins ...
