The rotational spectra of 1-butanol (1-BuOH), 1-butanethiol (1-BuSH), 2-methyl-1-propanol (iso-BuOH), and 2-methyl-1-propanethiol (iso-BuSH) were measured by Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy in the frequency region from 3.7 up to 25 GHz. The observed spectral lines were assigned by observation of the deuterium substitution effect and by ab initio or density functional theory calculations at the levels of MP2/6-311++G(d,p) or B3LYP and cam-B3LYP, respectively. For 1-BuOH and 1-BuSH, seven of the 14 conformations, anticipated to exist as stable, were detected, whereas four and three among the five possible conformations were identified for iso-BuOH and iso-BuSH, respectively. We further found that, of the seven conformers of 1-BuOH, five were trans and two gauche, with respect to the internal rotation axis the C2-C3 bond, while three of iso-BuOH existed in gauche and one in trans. The most stable conformer of the two BuOH molecules was trans with respect to the C-O bond, while all the sulfur analogues ws in them caused by mutual repulsion could be precisely determined by the observation of the transitions involving those split levels. Such splittings were determined for 1-BuSH, 1-BuSD, and iso-BuSH to be 1694.1731 (22), 56.3174 (16), and 6.4678 (14) MHz, respectively. A natural bond orbital analysis was performed to show that the most stable conformation of the primary and secondary alcohols is Gt because of the charge transfer from the lone-pair electron of the oxygen atom to the antibonding orbital of the C-H bond in 1-BuOH, whereas in iso-BuOH, the charge transfer to the antibonding orbital of the C1-C2 bond.Resolving low-energy features in the density of states (DOS) holds the key to understanding a wide variety of rich novel phenomena in graphene-based 2D heterostructures. The Lifshitz transition in bilayer graphene (BLG) arising from trigonal warping has been established theoretically and experimentally. Nevertheless, the experimental realization of its effects on transport properties has been challenging because of its relatively low energy scale (∼1 meV). In this work, we demonstrate that the thermoelectric power (TEP) can be used as an effective probe to investigate fine changes in the DOS of BLG. selleck screening library We observed additional entropy features in the vicinity of the charge neutrality point (CNP) in gapped BLG. This apparent violation of the Mott formula can be explained quantitatively by considering the effects of trigonal warping, thereby serving as possible evidence of a Lifshitz transition.In the past few years, a large variety of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with vivid and well-distinguished color hues have been demonstrated. In this Perspective, we compare different strategies employed to realize colorful PSCs both in opaque and semitransparent designs. The approaches used to modulate the PSCs' colorful appearance can be divided into two main categories the first one based on the modifications of their internal layers (i.e., absorber, electron- and/or hole-transporting layers, and electrodes), while the second is based on the addition of external colored or nanostructured films to the standard PSCs. The advantages and bottlenecks of each strategy are discussed in terms of PSCs' color tunability, transparency, photovoltaic performances, fabrication processes feasibility, and scalability, in view of suitable applications in an urban context for building-integrated photovoltaics.Chemiluminescence (CL) resonance energy transfer (CRET) has received great attention due to its fascinating applications in in vivo imaging and photodynamic therapy. Here, we report a highly efficient CRET polymer dot (CRET-Pdots)-based system using catalytic CL reagents as energy donors and fluorescent polymers and dyes as energy acceptors. CRET-Pdots consist of Fe(III) deuteroporphyrin IX (CL catalyst), fluorescent polymers, and dyes. The CL intensity and duration are markedly enhanced by using ultrasensitive catalytic CL reaction of luminol analogue-H2O2, and the CL emission wavelength can be adjusted by one-step/two-step energy-transfer strategies. CRET-Pdots show intensive multicolor CL (about 3000× enhanced), an adjustable emission wavelength (470-720 nm), long CL duration (over 8 h), and a high CRET efficiency (50%). CRET-Pdots possess excellent biocompatibility, sensitive response to reactive oxygen species (ROS), and ultrahigh catalytic activity. They are successfully used for high-contrast real-time ROS imaging and in vivo tumor-targeted imaging with an excellent signal-to-noise ratio (over 90).Developing efficient protocols to enhance the optical activities of chiral self-assemblies is a key to realizing their chiroptical functions such as chiral sensing and displays. Here, we have reported a coassembly protocol to efficiently boost the chiroptical responses, whereby the synthesis of chiroptical nanomaterials and highly accurate detection of enantiomeric excess (ee %) were achieved. A series of benzimidazole derivatives with different topologies underwent spontaneous aggregation and symmetry breaking in solution, generating silent Cotton effects, yet exclusive weak left-handed circularly polarized luminescence (CPL). The coassembly with natural hydroxyl acids via complementary H bonds afforded chiral nanostructures with emerged Cotton effects and enhanced CPL. Dissymmetry g-factors were dramatically boosted (glum from 1 × 10-3 to 5.5 × 10-2, gabs from 0 to 6.7 × 10-3). In addition, proof of concept of recognition and detection of natural chiral molecules was realized with high accuracy.InterMetalDB is a free-of-charge database and browser of intermolecular metal binding sites that are present on the interfaces of macromolecules forming larger assemblies based on structural information deposited in Protein Data Bank (PDB). It can be found and freely used at https//intermetaldb.biotech.uni.wroc.pl/. InterMetalDB collects the interfacial binding sites with involvement of metal ions and clusters them on the basis of 50% sequence similarity and the nearest metal environment (5 Å radius). The data are available through the web interface where they can be queried, viewed, and downloaded. Complexity of the query depends on the user, because the questions in the query are connected with each other by a logical AND. InterMetalDB offers several useful options for filtering records including searching for structures by particular parameters such as structure resolution, structure description, and date of deposition. Records can be filtered by coordinated metal ion, number of bound amino acid residues, coordination sphere, and other features.
