Harnessing prion-inspired amyloid self-assembly for sustainable and biocompatible proton conductivity
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2024-04)
Protein-based materials have emerged as promising candidates for proton-conducting biomaterials. Therefore, drawing inspiration from the amino acid composition of prion-like domains, we designed short self-assembling ...
How the Charge-Neutrality Level of Interface States Controls Energy Level Alignment in Cathode Contacts of Organic Bulk-Heterojunction Solar Cells
(American Chemical Society, 2012-04)
Electronic equilibration at the metal–organic interface, leading to equalization of the Fermi levels, is a key process in organic optoelectronic devices. How the energy levels are set across the interface determines carrier ...
Multitap microwave photonic filters with programmable phase response via optical frequency comb shaping
(Optical Society of America, 2012)
We present a programmable multitap microwave photonic filter with an arbitrary phase response operating over a broad bandwidth. Complex coefficient taps are achieved by optical line-by-line pulse shaping on a 10 GHz flat ...
Design development and implementation of an irradiation station at the neutron time-of-flight facility at CERN
(American Physical Society, 2022-10-20)
A new parasitic, mixed-field, neutron-dominated irradiation station has been recently commissioned at the European Laboratory for Particle Physics (CERN). The station is installed within the neutron time-of-flight (n_TOF) ...
Design and characterization of alkoxy-wrapped push–pull porphyrins for dye-sensitized solar cells
(The Royal Society of Chemistry, 2012-03-09)
Three alkoxy-wrapped push–pull porphyrins were designed and synthesized for dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) applications. Spectral, electrochemical, photovoltaic and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy properties of ...
Novel electrolytes based on mixtures of dimethyl sulfoxide task specific zwitterionic ionic liquid and lithium salts: Synthesis and conductivity studies
(Elsevier, 2023-08-09)
Novel methyl sulfoxide imidazolium-based zwitterionic low melting salts was synthesized and characterized. The combination of this functionalized zwitterion and lithium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)amide (LiNTf2) salts at ...
Spectral analysis of femtosecond pulse diffraction through binary diffractive optical elements: theory and experiment
(Optical Society of America, 2008)
We report on the changes in the spectrum of a femtosecond
pulse originated by diffraction of the ultrashort waveform through a
circularly symmetric binary diffractive optical element. The analysis is
performed in the ...
Electrodeposition and impedance spectroscopy characterization of ZnO nanowire arrays
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2008)
An overview of the electrodeposition of ZnO nanowire arrays from the reduction of dissolved molecular oxygen in zinc chloride solutions was reported. In spite of the internal structure of ZnO which favours the anisotropic ...
Inverted Solution Processable OLEDs Using a Metal Oxide as an Electron Injection Contact
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2008)
A new type of bottom-emission electroluminescent device is described in which a metal oxide is used as
the electron-injecting contact. The preparation of such a device is simple. It consists of the deposition of a
thin ...
Resolution-enhanced optical coherence tomography based on classical intensity interferometry
(Optical Society of America, 2009)
We propose a fourth-order interference scheme for optical coherence tomography operating with broadband
incoherent (or quasi-incoherent) light. It is shown that using this proposal, an axial resolution improvement by
a ...
