Quantum-Size Effects in Ultra-Thin Gold Films on Pt(111) Surface
(MDPI, 2023-12-22)
We calculate, within the density-functional theory, the atomic and electronic structure of the clean Pt(111) and Au(111) surfaces and the nML-Au/Pt(111) systems with n varying from one to three. The effect of the spin–orbital ...
Unveiling the Synergy of Coupled Gold Nanoparticles and J-Aggregates in Plexcitonic Systems for Enhanced Photochemical Applications
(MDPI, 2023-12-22)
Plexcitonic systems based on metal nanostructures and molecular J-aggregates offer an excellent opportunity to explore the intriguing interplay between plasmonic excitations and excitons, offering unique insights into ...
Thioetherification of Br-Mercaptobiphenyl Molecules on Au(111)
(American Chemical Society, 2023-02)
Thioether polymers are fundamental for a variety of applications. Their synthesis is, however, more challenging than that of other metal-catalyzed reactions due to the reported detachment of the S atom during thermal ...
Recyclable, remendable and healing polyurethane/acrylic coatings from UV curable waterborne dispersions containing Diels-‐Alder moieties
(Elsevier, 2020-02-01)
The aim of the present work is to increase the sustainability of UV curable waterborne polyurethane dispersions using the Diels-Alder chemistry. In this way, the obtaining of crosslinked polyurethane coatings presenting ...
High-Performance All-Organic Aqueous Batteries Based on a Poly(Imide) Anode and Poly(Catechol) Cathode
(RSC, 2021-01-07)
Aqueous all-polymer batteries (AqPBs) are foreseen as promising solutions for safe, sustainable, and high-performance energy storage applications. Nevertheless, their development is still challenging as it demands precise ...
Spin-to-charge current interconversion in highly resistive sputtered bismuth selenide
(2023-11-27)
In this thesis, we characterize sputtered BiSe by several SCI techniques. Our first approach is one of the best known techniques, spin pumping. Chapter 4 presents the SCI results in sputtered BiSe by the spin pumping ...
Lactide-caprolactone copolymers with tuneable barrier properties for packaging applications
(Elsevier, 2020-06-07)
Lactide-caprolactone copolymers have been synthetized employing two metallic catalysts, Ph3Bi and SnOct2. The analysis of the microstructure by NMR reveals that gradient like copolymers are obtained with SnOct2 catalyst, ...
Stacking and Their Boundaries in Few-layer Graphene: Stability and Electronic Properties in Bi- and Trilayer Graphene.
(2023-02-20)
Las observaciones experimentales de grafeno de pocas capas muestran propiedades electrónicas notables. Sin embargo, para mantener estas propiedades, el orden de apilamiento debe mantenerse a lo largo de todos los procesos. ...
Nanoscale physical properties of polymer thin films for energy applications.
(2023-01-31)
Los compuestos poliméricos constituyen una gran variedad de productos que pueden presentar nanoestructuras supramoleculares complejas, las cuales determinan sus comportamiento tanto en bulk cuanto bajo las condiciones de ...
Polydimethylsiloxane containing waterborne hydrophobic polyurethane coatings with good adhesion to metals: synthesis and characterization
(Elsevier, 2021-10-22)
Waterborne polyurethanes (WPU) are of great importance in the industrial field as adhesives and coatings due to reduced use of organic solvents in their formulations. One of the main drawbacks of these formulations is their ...
