Quinoidal π-conjugated molecules have endowed significant attention over the years especially due to inherent high electron affinity and amphiprotic redox behavior, establishing their application as versatile active material ...

Transport of electrons through low-dimensional quantum conductors like nano-junctions has been actively pursued research area for the last few decades. Experimental studies on nano-junctions are nowadays routinely carried ...

Solar energy is by far the most abundant renewable resource available to mankind. However, it is diffused and intermittent, and often geographically separated from that of the production results in underwhelming utilization ...

The need for sustainable and efficient organic synthesis has inspired chemists to embrace classic technologies like electrochemistry and photochemistry. In addition to being an environmentally benign method to synthesize ...

Abstract: The study of light emission [1] from a molecular junction is recently gaining research interest. This has direct relevance to develop novel optoelectronic devices [2] and to understand light-matter interaction ...

In summary, we have performed first-principles calculations to study the topological phase transitions in chalcopyrite compounds as a function of hydrostatic pressure. These compounds are topological insulators in the ...

Ni-Ni3B, Co-B, and Co-Ni-B nanocomposites decorated on carbon aerogel were successfully synthesized by adopting the solution impregnation method. The nanocomposites were characterized by powder XRD, transmission electron ...

This thesis, entitled “Stereocontrol through Catalytic Enantioselective C(sp2)−H and C(sp3)−H Alkylation: From Bifunctional Organocatalysis to Iridium-Catalysis” primarily deals with the development of various catalytic ...

The global demand for improved living standards coupled with rising pollutant or hazardous gases levels, safety and security demands have led to increased demand for miniaturized gas sensors and photodetectors. Production ...

The thesis is entitled as "Development of Novel NMR Methodology and Investigation of Challenging Chemical Problems ". The research work reported in this thesis is mainly carried out in two directions. The initial focus ...
