Statistical Analysis of Photoluminescence Decay Kinetics in Quantum Dot Ensembles: Effects of Inorganic Shell Composition and Environment
(American Chemical Society, 2022)
Discerning the kinetics of photoluminescence (PL) decay of packed quantum dots (QDs) and QD-based hybrid materials is of crucial importance for achieving their promising potential. However, the interpretation of the decay ...
Rheology of Polymer Processing in Spain (1995–2020)
(MDPI, 2021-07-14)
The contribution of Spanish scientists to the rheology involved in polymer processing during the last 25 years is investigated. It is shown that the performed research covers, at different levels, all industrial polymeric ...
Compliant mechanical response of the ultrafast folding protein EnHD under force
(Nature, 2023-02)
Ultrafast folding proteins have become an important paradigm in the study of protein folding dynamics. Due to their low energetic barriers and fast kinetics, they are amenable for study by both experiment and simulation. ...
Bio-Based Phosphate-Containing Polyester for Improvement of Fire Reaction in Wooden Particleboard
(MDPI, 2023-02-22)
A new phosphate-containing bio-polyester based on glycerol and citric acid was synthesized and evaluated as fire-retardant (FR) in wooden particleboards. Phosphorus pentoxide was used to first introduce phosphate esters ...
Polymer Colloids: Current Challenges, Emerging Applications, and New Developments
(American Chemical Society, 2023-03)
Polymer colloids are complex materials that have the potential to be used in a vast array of applications. One of the main reasons for their continued growth in commercial use is the water-based emulsion polymerization ...
Intermolecular Interactions and Charge Resonance Contributions to Triplet and Singlet Exciton States of Oligoacene Aggregates
(MDPI, 2022-12-23)
Intermolecular interactions modulate the electro-optical properties of molecular materials and the nature of low-lying exciton states. Molecular materials composed by oligoacenes are extensively investigated for their ...
Collective Electronic and Magnetic States in Two-Dimensional Transition Metal Dichalcogenides
(2022-03-25)
Single-layer (SL) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) materials possess a variety of collective electronic phases such as superconductivity (SC), charge density wave (CDW) order, and magnetic correlations, which exhibit ...
Toward Efficient Tandem Electroreduction of CO2 to Methanol using Anodised Titanium
(ACS, 2021-06-28)
The electroreduction of CO2 (CO2RR) using renewable electricity is an appealing route to synthesize methanol (CH3OH), a valuable C1 feedstock and fuel. Unfortunately, there are still no workhorse electrocatalysts with ...
Theory-guided enhancement of CO2 reduction to ethanol on Ag-Cu tandem catalysts via particle-size effects
(ACS, 2021-10-18)
In the CO2 reduction reaction, the design of electrocatalysts that selectively promote alcohols over hydrocarbons (e.g., ethanol over ethylene) hinges on the understanding of the pathways and specific sites that forms ...
