Atto-second Dynamics in Molecular Systems
The thesis describes the attosecond dynamics of small molecular systems, focusing on ionization delay times and hole migration delay times. These time delays are some of the fastest events in electronic dynamics. When an ... -
B, N containing π- conjugated systems: room temperature phosphorescence, fullerene complexation, and cell differentiation
Advances in heteroatom (B, N, and B-N) incorporated π-conjugated systems have attracted considerable attention because of their desirable properties and widespread applications. Substitution of isoelectronic B–N units for ... -
Basic studies on electromechanical power sources - Voltage transients, alternating current impedance and steady state discharge characteristics of magnesium-manganese dioxide dry cells and supplementary investigation on titanium-substrate cobalt oxide and magnetite anode development for electrosynthesis
The extended shelf life of high-energy primary batteries based on lithium, magnesium, and aluminum is primarily attributed to the presence of a protective passive film on the surface of the reactive metal anode. Evaluating ... -
Binding, activation, and oxidative addition of dihydrogen using Ir-pincer systems and implications in hydrogenation catalysis
Binding of unreactive small molecules, such as H2, N2, CO2, CH4, etc. on a transition metal center and their subsequent activation are fundamental problems that have been extensively studied in organometallic chemistry for ... -
