When two sheets of graphene stack in a twisted bilayer graphene (tBLG) configuration, the resulting constrained overlap between interplanar 2p orbitals produce angle-tunable electronic absorption resonances. By applying a novel combination of multiphoton transient absorption (TA) microscopy and TEM, we resolve the electronic structure and ensuing relaxation by probing resonant excitations of si...

Recently, highly efficient solar cells based on organic-inorganic perovskites have been intensively reported for developing fabricating methods and device structures. Additional power conversion efficiency should be gained without increasing the thickness and the complexity of the devices to accord with practical applications. In this paper, a rough interface between perovskite and HTM was fabr...

The 2p-3d core-hole interaction in the L2.3 absorption spectra of the transition metals is treated within time-dependent density functional theory. A simple three-level model explains the origin of the strong deviations from the one-particle branching ratio and yields matrix elements of the unknown exchange-correlation kernel directly from experiment.

We have realized in-situ growth of ultrathin ZnIn2S4 nanosheets on the sheet-like g-C3N4 surfaces to construct a "sheet-on-sheet" hierarchical heterostructure. The as-synthesized ZnIn2S4/g-C3N4 heterojunction nanosheets exhibit remarkably enhancement on the photocatalytic activity for H2 production. This enhanced photoactivity is mainly attributed to the efficient interfacial transfer of photoi...

Structural changes of the iron(II)-tris-bipyridine ([Fe(II)(bpy)(3)](2+)) complex induced by ultrashort pulse excitation and population of its short-lived (< or =0.6 ns) quintet high spin state have been detected by picosecond x-ray absorption spectroscopy. The structural relaxation from the high spin to the low spin state was followed over the entire lifetime of the excited state. A combined a...

background: to explore the oral absorption of scorpion venom an elisa were designed in this study. scorpions and their venom were been used for centuries as medical treatments in traditional medicine. the oral administration of drug referred as the convenient way, as there was not any publication about gastro-intestinal absorption of scorpion venom; this experiment checked oral absorption of me...

background: in the present study, blood serum level of metals were determined in malarial pa­tients and compared with those in the normal subjects without complication using atomic absorp­tion spectrometer. methods: for the determination of these metals twelve intravenous blood samples each from re­ferred malarial patients and a group of normal subjects were collected and immediately centri­fug...
