Surface modification with thermoresponsive polymer brushes for a switchable electrochemical sensor
(2014)
Elaboration of switchable surfaces represents an interesting way for the development of a new generation of electrochemical sensors. In this paper, a method for growing thermoresponsive polymer brushes from a gold surface pre-modified with polyethyleneimine (PEI), subsequent layer-by-layer polyelectrolyte assembly and adsorption of a charged macroinitiator is described. We propose an easy method for monitoring the coil-to-globule phase transition of the polymer brush using an electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (E-QCM-D). The surface of these polymer modified electrodes shows reversible switching from the swollen to the collapsed state with temperature. As demonstrated from E-QCM-D measurements using an original signal processing method, the switch is operating in three reversible steps related to different interfacial viscosities. Moreover, it is shown that the one electron oxidation of ferrocene carboxylic acid is dramatically affected by the change from the swollen to the collapsed state of the polymer brush, showing a spectacular 86% decrease of the charge transfer resistance between the two states.
In situ imidazolate-4,5-diamide-2-olate linker generation leads to the formation of a [Zn-14(L2)(12)(O)-(OH)(2)(H2O)(4)] molecular building block (MBB) with a Zn-6 octahedron inscribed in a Zn-8 cube. The MBBs connect by amide-amide hydrogen bonds to a 3D robust supramolecular network which can be activated for N-2, CO2, CH4, and H-2 gas sorption.
We present a novel laser pulse control for the chiroptical switch 1-(2-cis-fluoroethenyl)-2-fluoro-3,5-dibromobenzene mounted on adamantane, where the latter imitates a linker group or part of a solid surface. This molecular device offers three switching states: a true achiral "off"-state and two chiral "on"-states of opposite handedness. Due to the alignment of its chiral axis along the surface normal several defined orientations of the switch have to be considered for an efficient stereocontrol strategy. In addition to these different initial conditions, coupled torsional degrees of freedom around the chiral axis make the quest for highly stereoselective laser pulses a challenge. The necessary flexibility in pulse accomplished by employing the iterative stochastic pulse optimization method we presented recently. Still, the complexity of the system dictates a combined treatment by fast molecular dynamics and computationally intensive quantum dynamics. Although quantum effects are found to be of importance, the pulses optimized within the classical treatment allow us to turn on the chirality of the switch, achieving high enantioselectivity in the quantum treatment for all orientations at the same time.
Janus emulsions were formed by mixing three immiscible liquids; this implies two oil components (i.e. olive oil (00) and silicone oil (SiO)) with water in presence of interfacial active components. The morphology and size of Janus droplets formed strongly depended on the type of surfactant used. In presence of a non-ionic surfactant, i.e. Tween 80, large engulfed Janus droplets were formed. By adding phospholipids to the system the droplet size was decreased and more stable Janus droplets formed. Interfacial tension measurements carried out using a spinning drop apparatus and a ring tensiometer demonstrate that interfacial tension is the most important factor controlling the size, morphology and stability of Janus droplets. When the interfacial tension between oil and water becomes <= 1 mN/m, smaller Janus droplets are formed. Such conditions are fulfilled when phospholipids are used in combination with non-ionic surfactant Tween 80. The morphology of the double droplets is predominantly controlled by the viscosity and interfacial tension between the two oil phases. By using different types of phospholipids, i.e. asolectin and lecithin instead of a more concentrated phosphatidylcholine (phospholipon), the interfacial tension is decreased and different morphologies of engulfing can be observed.
This Letter is focused on the one-pot formation of CdS nanoparticles in aqueous medium in presence of polyethyleneimine (PEI). Quantum dots can be obtained by adding a pre-cooled aqueous Na2S solution to a pre-cooled aqueous CdCl2 solution dropwise in presence of PEI.
Field flow fractionation in combination with TEM experiments show a time dependent agglomeration of individual quantum dots from 1.6 nm up to 3.2 nm in size. The hyperbranched PEI of moderate molar mass (>20000 g/mol) is an excellent polymer to prevent a further increase of the particle size. Therefore, stable fluorescent PEI-capped CdS quantum dots are available.
Micellar multilayer films were prepared from an amphiphilic comb-like polycation ("polysoap") and the polyanion poly(styrene sulfonate) (PSS) using alternate polyelectrolyte layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly. Linear growth of the film thickness was evidenced by UV-vis spectroscopy and spectroscopic ellipsometry. Imaging by atomic force microscopy (AFM) indicated that the micellar conformation adopted by the polycation in solutions was preserved in the films. Thus, hydrophobic photoactive molecules, which were solubilized by the hydrophobic nanodomains of the micellar polymer prior to deposition, could be transferred into the films. Photoinduced energy transfer was observed in the nanostructured multilayers between naphthalene (donor) and perylene (acceptor) molecules embedded inside the polymer micelles. The efficiency of the energy transfer process can be controlled to some extent by introducing spacer layers between the layers containing the donor or acceptor, revealing partial stratification of the micellar LbL films. Also, photoinduced electron transfer was evidenced between perylene (donor) and butyl viologen (acceptor) molecules embedded inside the multilayers by steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy. The obtained photoactive nanostructures are promising candidates for solar-to-chemical energy conversion systems.
We investigate the torsion potentials in two prototypical pi-conjugated polymers, polyacetylene and polydiacetylene, as a function of chain length using different flavors of density functional theory. Our study provides a quantitative analysis of the delocalization error in standard semilocal and hybrid density functionals and demonstrates how it can influence structural and thermodynamic properties. The delocalization error is quantified by evaluating the many-electron self-interaction error (MESIE) for fractional electron numbers, which allows us to establish a direct connection between the MESIE and the error in the torsion barriers. The use of non-empirically tuned long-range corrected hybrid functionals results in a very significant reduction of the MESIE and leads to an improved description of torsion barrier heights. In addition, we demonstrate how our analysis allows the determination of the effective conjugation length in polyacetylene and polydiacetylene chains.
A cluster approach extended to the ONIOM methodology has been applied using several density functionals and Moller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) to simulate the adsorption of selected nitrogen-containing compounds [NCCs, 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), 2,4-dinitrotoluene (DNT), 2,4-dinitroanisole (DNAN), and 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole-5-one (NTO)] on the hydroxyated (100) surface of a-quartz. The structural properties were calculated using the M06-2X functional and 6-31G(d,p) basis set. The M06-2X-D3, PBE-D3, and MP2 methods were used to calculate the adsorption energies. Results have been compared with the data from other studies of adsorption of compounds of similar nature on silica. Effect of deformation of the silica surface and adsorbates on the binding energy values was also studied. The atoms in molecules (AIM) analysis was employed to characterize the adsorbate-adsorbent binding and to calculate the bond energies. The silica surface shows different sorption affinity toward the chemicals considered depending on their electronic structure. All target NCCs are physisorbed on the modeled silica surface. Adsorption occurs due to the formation of multiple hydrogen bonds between the functional groups of NCCs and surface silanol groups. Parallel orientation of NCCs interacting with the silica surface was found to be favorable when compared with perpendicularly oriented NCCs. NTO was found to be the most strongly adsorbed on the silica surface among all of the considered compounds. Dispersion correction was shown to play an important role in the DFT calculations of the adsorption energies of silica-NCC systems.
