Polyampholyte-based films can be efficiently self-assembled onto a surface in a one-pot manner. By using a gradient of protons, morphogens, generated at an electrode surface, a charge-shifting polyelectrolyte present in solution can be transformed into a polyampholyte, leading to the continuous buildup of a film based on polyelectrolyte complexation.

MP2/6-31++G** and B3LYP/6-31++G** ab initio molecular orbital calculations have been performed in order to obtain molecular geometries, binding energies and vibrational properties of the C2H2-HF, C2H(CH3)-HF and C2(CH3)2-HF H-bonded complexes. As expected, the more pronounced effects on the structural properties of the isolated molecules due to complexation was verified for the C[triple bond]C ...

Abstrtct Chrge resonance interaction in naphthalene homomd heterodimer cations is studied by photodissociation spc'troscopy ofthe charge resonance and the local excitation transitions. The resonance interaction in naphthalene dimer cation is slightly weaker than that ofa benzene dimer cation because ofpartial overlapping ofthe respective aromatic rings. A local excitationband ofthe benzene cati...

A novel implementation of a charge based quantum computer is proposed. There is no charge transfer during calculation, therefore, uncontrollable entan-glement between qubits due to long-range Coulomb forces is suppressed. High-speed computation with 1ps per an operation looks as feasible. Almost all recent experimental realizations of quantum computation accomplished on several qubits and even ...

BACKGROUND The application of surface complexation models (SCMs) to natural sediments and soils is hindered by a lack of consistent models and data for large suites of metals and minerals of interest. Furthermore, the surface complexation approach has mostly been developed and tested for single solid systems. Few studies have extended the SCM approach to systems containing multiple solids. RE...

The development of flexible displays and electronics is hindered by the disadvantages polymeric window films, such as low mechanical strength, poor optical properties, lack folding rolling reliability. To overcome these critical limitations, a novel colorless polyimide film prepared in this study using concept charge-transfer complex (CTC) intensification. resulting has tensile modulus 8.4 GPa,...
