Multilevel resistance in ZnO nanowire memristors enabled by hydrogen annealing treatment
(2016)In non-volatile memory technology, various attempts to overcome both technology and physical limits have led to development of neuromorphic devices like memristors. Moreover, multilevel resistance and the potential for ... -
Quantum point contacts and resistive switching in Ni/NiO nanowire junctions
(2016)Metal oxide devices that exhibit resistive swi tching are leading candidates for non-volatile memory applications due to their potential for fast switching, low-power operation, and high device density. It is widely ... -
Direct observation by time-resolved infrared spectroscopy of the bright and the dark excited states of the [Ru(phen)2(dppz)]2+ light-switch compound in solution and when bound to DNA
(2016)The [Ru(phen)2(dppz)]2+ complex (1) is non-emissive in water but is highly luminescent in organic solvents or when bound to DNA, making it a useful probe for DNA binding. To date, a complete mechanistic explanation for ... -
An investigation of the interactions of Eu3+ and Am3+ with uranyl minerals: implications for the storage of spent nuclear fuel.
(2016)The reaction of a number of uranyl minerals of the (oxy)hydroxide, phosphate and carbonate types with Eu( III ), as a surrogate for Am( III ), have been investigated. A photoluminescence study shows that Eu( III ) ... -
A structural and spectroscopic study of the first uranyl selenocyanate, [Et4N]3[UO2(NCSe)5]
(2016)he first example of a uranyl selenocyanate compound is reported. The compound [Et4N]3[UO2(NCSe)5] has been synthesized and fully characterized by vibrational and multinuclear (1H, 13C{1H} and 77Se{1H}) NMR spectroscopy. ... -
Functionalization of Two-Dimensional Transition-Metal Dichalcogenides
(2016)Two-dimensional (2D) layered transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are a fascinating class of nanomaterials that have the potential for application in catalysis, electronics, photonics, energy storage, and sensing. TMDs ... -
Synthesis and characterisation of a mesocyclic tripodal triamine ligand
(2016)Meso- and macrocyclic polydentate amine ligands have been widely explored in oxidation catalysis and for the stabilization of unstable metal-superoxide, -peroxide, and -oxo intermediates. Herein we report on the design and ... -
Characterization and reactivity of a terminal nickel(III)-oxygen adduct
(2015)High-valent terminal metal-oxygen adducts are hypothesized to be the potent oxidizing reactants in late transition metal oxidation catalysis. In particular, examples of high-valent terminal nickel-oxygen adducts are scarce, ... -
Tethered pincer complexes as recyclable homogeneous catalysts
(2015)The utilisation of recyclable pincer complexes in applied catalysis is a vital progression in the field of homogeneous catalysis. This is routed in the high thermal and mechanical stability that most pincer complexes ... -
