Alkene functionality can be found in the majority of natural products, drugs, catalysts and organic materials. Therefore, methods of C-C double bond formation constitute a cornerstone of organic synthesis. Selective formation of either (Z)- or (E)-isomer i ...
Functional group (FG) analysis provides a means by which functionalization in organic aerosol can be attributed to the abundances of its underlying molecular structures. However, performing this attribution requires additional, unobserved details about the ...
Functional groups (FGs) can be used as a reduced representation of organic aerosol composition in both ambient and controlled chamber studies, as they retain a certain chemical specificity. Furthermore, FG composition has been informative for source apport ...
The effect of an Al2O3 interlayer on the thermal conductance of metal (Al)/non-metal (diamond and silicon) interfaces is investigated using Time Domain ThermoReflectance (TDTR). Interlayers between 1.7 and 20nm are deposited on oxygen-terminated diamond an ...
In this study, the main attempt is devoted to investigating the microstructure and electronic properties of AlCrOxN1 - x films in a wide range of oxygen concentrations from 0 to 1. These oxynitride films were deposited by pulsed DC magnetron sputtering fro ...
In the perspective of a sustainable energy economy, CO2 reduction is attracting increasing attention as a key Step toward the synthesis of fuels and valuable chemicals. A possible strategy to develop novel conversion catalysts consists in mimicking reactio ...
Oxynitride thin films, a novel class of mixed anionic solid structures, have gained an intense interest during recent years related to the unique interplay of oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N) with metals in the material structure. This matter can result in spec ...
Multi-element oxynitrides of type Al-Cr-Si-O-N were prepared using r.f. magnetron sputtering from Al80Cr2.5Si17.5 (at.%) target composition and O-2/(O-2+N-2) gas flow ratio between 0 and 100%. Two series of samples varying from pure nitrides to pure oxides ...
Aluminum rich oxynitride thin films were prepared using pulsed direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering from an Al95.5Cr2.5Si2 (at.%) target. Two series of films were deposited at 400 degrees C and 650 degrees C by changing the O-2/(O-2 + N-2) ratio in the ...
Recently, polymeric carbon nitride (g-C3N4) as a proficient photo-catalyst has been effectively employed in photocatalysis for energy conversion, storage, and pollutants degradation due to its low cost, robustness, and environmentally friendly nature. The ...
