There are specifi c benefi ts to using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer with diode array detector technology compared to those offered when using traditional scanning UV-Vis instruments. Within the molecular spectroscopy group, Agilent is able to offer both types of UV-Vis instruments. The Agilent Cary 60 UV-Vis, based on Xenon fl ash lamp technology, is the ideal scanning instrument for many routine...

A microfluidic device that contains a silica film as optical transducer and electrochemical electrode was used to monitor how ferricyanide ion behaves within nanoporous matrix. This prototype device allows UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry to be performed at the same time. Significant reducing in leaching of redox molecules proved this device integrated with silica film can ...

in this work, we report synthesis of silver nanoplates by a simple reduction process of silver nitrate in the presence of polyvinyl alcohol (pva) and n,n'-dimethyl formamide (dmf). the characterization of the samples were carried out using x-ray diffraction (xrd), transmission-electron microscopy (tem) and uv-vis spectroscopy. absorption spectra of the nanoplates in comparison with that of...

Salts containing radical cations of 1,2,4,5-tetrakis(isopropylthio)benzene (TPB) and 1,2,4,5-tetrakis(ethylthio) benzene (TEB) have been successfully synthesized with . These newly synthesized salts have been characterized by UV-Vis absorption, EPR spectroscopy, conductivity measurement, single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis as well as DFT calculation. This study raises the first crystal st...

A novel π-conjugated organoboron polymer with a chiral side chain was prepared by way of hydroboration polymerization between an optically active diyne monomer and triisopropylphenylborane. The achiral analog of this organoboron polymer was also prepared as reference material. Optical properties and optical activity were investigated by UV–vis absorption, fluorescence emission, and circular dic...

Borosilicate BK7 glasses doped with different amounts of CeO2 (0.5,1,1.5%) were prepared by the convenient melting process in this work. DTA analysis proved that 0.5-1% CeO2 has a network modifier role and then up to 1.5% it shows network former role.For structural studies, FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy were carried out. Fermi energy level, direct/ indirect optical band gap and Urbach energy wer...

Novel [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) analogues containing benzo[b]thiophene (3a, 3b) and thieno[3,2-b]thiophene (3c, 3d) were synthesized and characterized. The morphology of the thin films prepared from the mixtures of these methanofullerenes with regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) was investigated by AFM measurement and UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy. A solubility t...

Radio-frequency excited, low-pressure plasmas in halogen-containing gases are widely used to etch submicronic features in a range of materials during integrated circuit manufacture. Costly process-drift problems are often caused by the ubiquitous deposition of polymer layers on the reactor walls. Simple and robust sensors of the reactor performance are needed to monitor and manage these effects...

Dihydroxybenziphthalocyanine 1, with bulky aryloxy groups, has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography, NMR and UV/Vis-NIR spectroscopy, and theoretical calculations. Macrocycle 1 is the first example of an aromatic benziphthalocyanine with an 18π-electron structure, and was found to exist as an equilibrium mixture of weakly aromatic and strongly aromatic tautomers. The arom...

Extended hybrid conjugated systems based on a trithienylphenylamine core with 1, 2 and 3 peripheral dithiafulvenyl units have been synthesized and studied by cyclic voltammetry and UV-Vis. absorption spectroscopy. Theoretical calculations have also been undergone. The behaviour of these derivatives which depends on the number of dithiafulvene moieties grafted of the central core is cleared up. ...
