Transfer of photoexcited charge from PbS nanocrystals to ligand molecules is investigated in different solvents. We find that the transfer rate increases dramatically with solvent dielectric constant. This trend accounted for by a modified Marcus theory incorporates only static effects. The choice allows significant control process. As an important example, we dispersed water exhibit rates 1000 times higher than same organic solvent. Rapid extraction will be efficient nanocrystal-based...

Dibenzo[b,f]arsepins possessing severely distorted cores compared to those of other heteropins were synthesized. These derivatives exhibited dual photoluminescence in the green-to-red region (500-700 nm) and near-ultraviolet (<380 nm), which could be attributed planarization arsepin core lowest singlet excited (S1 ) state. The computational approach for assessment aromatic indices revealed that dibenzoarsepins studied show aromaticity (8π system) S1 states line with Baird's rule. lone pair...

Pnictogen (Pn = As, Sb, Bi)‐bridged sulfoximines were synthesized by introducing phenyl (Ph) and benzyl (Bn) groups onto the nitrogen atom. Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed a weak closed‐shell interaction between Pn N or O. As‐ Sb‐bridged with Bn group exhibited dual fluorescence in solution, while others primarily showed single emission. The viscosity polarity of solvent significantly affected dual‐emission behavior.

Abstract The introduction of chirality into siloxanes is crucial for applications in chiral separation, recognition, and reaction environments. Cage silsesquioxanes, with their distinct three-dimensional structures, offer great potential this field. Here, we utilized corner-opened polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (CO-POSS) to construct unsymmetrical structures cage-centered chirality. three silanol groups commercially available CO-POSSs were functionalized through a stepwise process....

ABSTRACT Polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) is a promising nanofiller for tuning properties of optically transparent polymer materials. On the other hand, traditional completely condensed POSS (CC‐POSS) has fundamental problem fabricating composite films; CC‐POSS high crystallinity due to its symmetrical structure, resulting in aggregation matrices.
