Synthesis, characterization and ab initio investigation of a panchromatic ullazine–porphyrin photosensitizer for dye-sensitized solar cells

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Ursula Röthlisberger, Basile Curchod, Magdalena Anna Marszalek, Negar Ashari Astani, Julien Edouard Frey, Simon Mathew

An ullazine unit was employed as a donor moiety in a donor-pi-acceptor (D-p-A) motif, employing the porphyrin macrocycle as a pi-system. Synthesis of this ullazine-porphyrin dyad containing sensitizer (SM63) was achieved and an investigation of the electro ...

Synthesis of molecular complexes for small molecule activation

Julie Renée Michelle Andrez

The redox chemistry of f-elements is drawing the attention of inorganic chemists due to their unusual reaction pathways. Notably low-valent f-element complexes have been shown to be able to activate small molecules such as CO2 and N2 in mild conditions. Co ...

Accelerated self-cleaning by Cu promoted semiconductor binary-oxides under low intensity sunlight irradiation

Juan Kiwi, César Pulgarin, Rosendo Sanjines, Sami Rtimi

Uniform adhesive TiO2–ZrO2 films co-sputtered on polyester (PES) under low intensity sunlight irradiation discolored methylene blue (MB) within 120 min. The discoloration kinetics was seen to be accelerated by a factor four by TiO2–ZrO2–Cu containing ∼0.01 ...

Demultiplexing Visible and Near-Infrared Information in Single- Sensor Multispectral Imaging

Sabine Süsstrunk, Zahra Sadeghipoor Kermani, Jean-Baptiste Thomas

In this paper, we study a single-sensor imaging system that uses a multispectral filter array to spectrally sample the scene. Our system captures information in both visible and near-infrared bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. Due to manufacturing limi ...

Lanthanide(II) Complexes Supported by N,O-Donor Tripodal Ligands: Synthesis, Structure, and Ligand-Dependent Redox Behavior

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Julie Renée Michelle Andrez

The preparation and characterization of a series of complexes of the Yb and Eu cations in the oxidation state II and III with the tetradentate N,O-donor tripodal ligands (tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (TPA), BPA(-) (HBPA=bis(2-pyridylmethyl)(2-hydroxybenzyl)a ...

Tridentate Benzimidazole-Pyridine-Tetrazolates as Sensitizers of Europium Luminescence

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Rosario Scopelliti, Svetlana Eliseeva

We report on new anionic tridentate benzimidazole-pyridine-tetrazolate ligands that form neutral 3:1 complexes with trivalent lanthanides. The ligands are UV-absorbing chromophores that sensitize the red luminescence of europium with energy-transfer effici ...

Modifying the properties of 4f single-ion magnets by peripheral ligand functionalisation

Jan Gui-Hyon Dreiser

We study the ligand-field splittings and magnetic properties of three Er-III single-ion magnets which differ in the peripheral ligand sphere but exhibit similar first coordination spheres by inelastic neutron scattering (INS) and SQUID magnetometry. The IN ...
