By analyzing long-term data from 110 mountainous streams draining into German drinking water reservoirs, nitrate concentrations indeed declined in the majority of catchments. Furthermore, our meta-analysis indicates that the declining nitrate levels are linked to the release of dissolved iron to streams likely due to a reductive dissolution of iron(III) minerals in riparian wetland soils. This dissolution process mobilized adsorbed compounds, such as phosphate, dissolved organic carbon and arsenic, resulting in concentration increases in the streams and higher inputs to receiving drinking water reservoirs. Reductive mobilization was most significant in catchments with stream nitrate concentrations < 6 mg L-1. Here, nitrate, as a competing electron acceptor, was too low in concentration to inhibit microbial iron(III) reduction. Consequently, observed trends were strongest in forested catchments, where nitrate concentrations were unaffected by agricultural and urban sources and which were therefore sensitive to reductions of atmospheric nitrogen depositions. We conclude that there is strong evidence that the decline in nitrogen deposition toward pre-industrial conditions lowers the redox buffer in riparian soils, destabilizing formerly fixed problematic compounds, and results in serious implications for water quality.}, language = {en} } @book{MientusKlempinNowaketal.2023, author = {Mientus, Lukas and Klempin, Christiane and Nowak, Anna and Wyss, Corinne and Aufschnaiter, Claudia von and Faix, Ann-Christin and te Poel, Kathrin and Wahbe, Nadia and Pieper, Martin and H{\"o}ller, Katharina and Kallenbach, Lea and F{\"o}rster, Magdalena and Redecker, Anke and Dick, Mirjam and Holle, J{\"o}rg and Schneider, Edina and Rehfeldt, Daniel and Brauns, Sarah and Abels, Simone and Ferencik-Lehmkuhl, Daria and Fr{\"a}nkel, Silvia and Frohn, Julia and Liebsch, Ann-Catherine and Pech, Detlef and Schreier, Pascal and Jessen, Moiken and Großmann, Uta and Skintey, Lesya and Voerkel, Paul and Vaz Ferreira, Mergenfel A. and Zimmermann, Jan-Simon and Buddeberg, Magdalena and Henke, Vanessa and Hornberg, Sabine and V{\"o}lschow, Yvette and Warrelmann, Julia-Nadine and Malek, Jennifer and Tinnefeld, Anja and Schmidt, Peggy and Bauer, Tobias and J{\"a}nisch, Christopher and Spitzer, Lisa and Franken, Nadine and Degeling, Maria and Preisfeld, Angelika and Meier, Jana and K{\"u}th, Simon and Scholl, Daniel and Vogelsang, Christoph and Watson, Christina and Weißbach, Anna and Kulgemeyer, Christoph and Oetken, Mandy and Gorski, Sebastian and Kubsch, Marcus and Sorge, Stefan and Wulff, Peter and Fellenz, Carolin D. and Schnell, Susanne and Larisch, Cathleen and Kaiser, Franz and Knott, Christina and Reimer, Stefanie and Stegm{\"u}ller, Nathalie and Boukray{\^a}a Trabelsi, Kathrin and Schißlbauer, Franziska and Lemberger, Lukas and Barth, Ulrike and Wiehl, Angelika and Rogge, Tim and B{\"o}hnke, Anja and Dietz, Dennis and Großmann, Leroy and Wienmeister, Annett and Zoppke, Till and Jiang, Lisa and Gr{\"u}nbauer, Stephanie and Ostersehlt, D{\"o}rte and Peukert, Sophia and Sch{\"a}fer, Christoph and L{\"o}big, Anna and Br{\"o}ll, Leena and Brandt, Birgit and Breuer, Meike and Dausend, Henriette and Krelle, Michael and Andersen, Gesine and Falke, Sascha and Kindermann-G{\"u}zel, Kristin and K{\"o}rner, Katrina and Lottermoser, Lisa-Marie and P{\"u}gner, Kati and Sonnenburg, Nadine and Akarsu, Selim and Rechl, Friederike and Gadinger, Laureen and Heinze, Lena and Wittmann, Eveline and Franke, Manuela and Lachmund, Anne-Marie and B{\"o}ttger, Julia and Hannover, Bettina and Behrendt, Renata and Conty, Valentina and Grundmann, Stephanie and Ghassemi, Novid and Opitz, Ben and Br{\"a}mer, Martin and Gasparjan, David and Sambanis, Michaela and K{\"o}ster, Hilde and L{\"u}cke, Martin and Nordmeier, Volkhard and Schaal, Sonja and Haberbosch, Maximilian and Meissner, Maren and Schaal, Steffen and Br{\"u}chner, Melanie and Riehle, Tamara and Leopold, Bengta Marie and Gerlach, Susanne and Rau-Patschke, Sarah and Skorsetz, Nina and Weber, Nadine and Damk{\"o}hler, Jens and Elsholz, Markus and Trefzger, Thomas and Lewek, Tobias and Borowski, Andreas}, title = {Reflexion in der Lehrkr{\"a}ftebildung}, series = {Potsdamer Beitr{\"a}ge f{\"u}r Lehrkr{\"a}ftebildung und Bildungsforschung}, journal = {Potsdamer Beitr{\"a}ge f{\"u}r Lehrkr{\"a}ftebildung und Bildungsforschung}, number = {4}, editor = {Mientus, Lukas and Klempin, Christiane and Nowak, Anna}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-566-8}, issn = {2626-3556}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-59171}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-591717}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {452}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Reflexion ist eine Schl{\"u}sselkategorie f{\"u}r die professionelle Entwicklung von Lehrkr{\"a}ften, welche als Ausbildungsziel in den Bildungsstandards f{\"u}r die Lehrkr{\"a}ftebildung verankert ist.

For prototypical poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT), the absorption intensity of molecular dopant induced polarons is widely used to estimate the carrier density and the doping efficiency, i.e., the number of polarons formed per dopant molecule. However, the dependence of the polaron-related absorption features on the structure of doped P3HT, being either aggregates or separated individual chains, is not comprehensively understood in contrast to the optical absorption features of neutral P3HT. In this work, we unambiguously differentiate the optical signatures of polarons on individual P3HT chains and aggregates in solution, notably the latter exhibiting the same shape as aggregates in solid thin films. This is enabled by employing tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane (BCF) as dopant, as this dopant forms only ion pairs with P3HT and no charge transfer complexes, and BCF and its anion have no absorption in the spectral region of P3HT polarons. Polarons on individual chains exhibit absorption peaks at 1.5 eV and 0.6 eV, whereas in aggregates the high-energy peak is split into a doublet 1.3 eV and 1.65 eV, and the low-energy peak is shifted below 0.5 eV. The dependence of the fraction of solvated individual chains versus aggregates on absolute solution concentration, dopant concentration, and temperature is elucidated, and we find that aggregates predominate in solution under commonly used processing conditions. Aggregates in BCF-doped P3HT solution can be effectively removed upon simple filtering. From varying the filter pore size (down to 200 nm) and thin film morphology characterization with scanning force microscopy we reveal the aggregates' size dependence on solution absolute concentration and dopant concentration. Furthermore, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy shows that the dopant loading in aggregates is higher than for individual P3HT chains. The results of this study help understanding the impact of solution pre-aggregation on thin film properties of molecularly doped P3HT, and highlight the importance of considering such aggregation for other doped conjugated polymers in general.}, language = {en} } @article{ZhaoOpitzEljarratetal.2021, author = {Zhao, Yuhang and Opitz, Andreas and Eljarrat, Alberto and Kochovski, Zdravko and Koch, Christoph and Koch, Norbert and Lu, Yan}, title = {Kinetic study on the adsorption of 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane on Ag nanoparticles in chloroform}, series = {ACS applied nano materials}, volume = {4}, journal = {ACS applied nano materials}, number = {11}, publisher = {American Chemical Society}, address = {Washington}, issn = {2574-0970}, doi = {10.1021/acsanm.1c02153}, pages = {11625 -- 11635}, year = {2021}, abstract = {In this study, the kinetics of the adsorption of 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F(4)TCNQ) on the surface of Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) in chloroform has been intensively investigated, as molecular doping is known to play a crucial role in organic electronic devices. Based on the results obtained from UV-visible (vis)-near-infrared (NIR) absorption spectroscopy, cryogenic transmission electron microscopy, scanning nanobeam electron diffraction, and electron energy loss spectroscopy, a two-step interaction kinetics has been proposed for the Ag NPs and F(4)TCNQ molecules, which includes the first step of electron transfer from Ag NPs to F(4)TCNQ indicated by the ionization of F(4)TCNQ and the second step of the formation of a Ag-F(4)TCNQ complex. The whole process has been followed via UV-vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy, which reveals distinct kinetics at two stages: the instantaneous ionization and the long-term complex formation. The kinetics and the influence of the molar ratio of Ag NPs/F(4)TCNQ molecules on the interaction between Ag NPs and F(4)TCNQ molecules in an organic solution are reported herein for the first time. Furthermore, the control experiment with silica-coated Ag NPs manifests that the charge transfer at the surface between Ag NPs and F(4)TCNQ molecules is prohibited by a silica layer of 18 nm.}, language = {en} }
