Spin Diffusion in Dynamic Nuclear Polarization Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

Arthur César Pinon

Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) is currently one of the most efficient ways of enhancing sensitivity in solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) experiments. The DNP protocol consists in doping a sample with a small amount of paramagnetic species, t ...

High Susceptibility of Histidine to Charge Solvation Revealed by Cold Ion Spectroscopy

Oleg Boyarkine, Vladimir Kopysov, Aleksandr Pereverzev

Histidine remained the last aromatic amino acid for which the intrinsic spectroscopic properties and structures were obscure. We measured the UV and IR spectra of protonated histidine, isolated in the gas phase, using photofragmentation cold ion spectrosco ...

Multilaser Conformer-Selective Spectroscopy of Cold Biomolecular Ions in the Gas Phase

Aleksandr Pereverzev

Proteins and even small peptides play crucial role in almost any biological. Biological activity and functionality of these building blocks of life are determined not only by their primary structure, but also by their 3D orientation â secondary, tertiary ...

A Decapeptide Hydrated by Two Waters: Conformers Determined by Theory and Validated by Cold Ion Spectroscopy

Natalia Nagornova, Oleg Boyarkine, Robert Benny Gerber

The intrinsic structures of biomolecules in the gas phase may not reflect their native solution geometries. Microsolvation of the molecules bridges the two environments, enabling a tracking of molecular structural changes upon hydration at the atomistic le ...

Instability in CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite solar cells due to elemental migration and chemical composition changes

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Zubair Ahmad, Ahmed Soliman

Organic-inorganic halide perovskites have rapidly grown as favorable materials for photovoltaic applications, but accomplishing long-term stability is still a major research problem. This work demonstrates a new insight on instability and degradation facto ...

Spectroelectrochemical analysis of the mechanism of (photo)electrochemical hydrogen evolution at a catalytic interface

Michael Graetzel, Florian Le Formal, Matthew Thomas Mayer, Stanley David Tilley

Multi-electron heterogeneous catalysis is a pivotal element in the ( photo) electrochemical generation of solar fuels. However, mechanistic studies of these systems are difficult to elucidate by means of electrochemical methods alone. Here we report a spec ...

Indoor Light Enhanced Photocatalytic Ultra-Thin Films on Flexible Non-Heat Resistant Substrates Reducing Bacterial Infection Risks

Sami Rtimi

Photocatalytic antibacterial sol-gel coated substrates have been reported to kill bacteria under light or in the dark. These coatings showed non-uniform distribution, poor adhesion to the substrate and short effective lifetime as antibacterial surfaces. Th ...

Cu-decorated Raschig-TiO2 rings inducing MB repetitive discoloration without release of Cu-ions under solar light

César Pulgarin, Michaël Bensimon, Juan Kiwi, Rosendo Sanjines, Laura Victoria Suárez Murillo, Helena Luisa Teixido Pedarros

The methylene blue (MB) discoloration on innovative photocatalysts made up of Raschig-rings coated by pre-formed TiO2 nanoparticles decorated with CuOx (RR@TiO2-Cu) is presented. The MB-discoloration was drastically accelerated by the subsequent addition o ...

Effect of light and oxygen on repetitive bacterial inactivation on uniform, adhesive, robust and stable Cu-polyester surfaces

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi, Rosendo Sanjines

This study reports new findings on the sputtered Cu-polyester (Cu-PES) bacterial inactivation under low intensity visible light (lambda > 400 nm). Cu-PES samples sputtered for 160 s led to the complete inactivation of E. coli in anaerobic and aerobic media ...

A Gibeon meteorite yields a high-performance water oxidation electrocatalyst

Paul Joseph Dyson, Arnaud Magrez, Kevin Sivula, Florian Le Formal, Aswin Gopakumar, Nestor Guijarro Carratala, Mathieu Steven Prévot, Wiktor Stefan Bourée, Charlotte Marie Sornay, Julie Voit

Examining the electrocatalytic performance of naturally-occurring metallic minerals is of interest for energy conversion applications given their unique atomic composition and formation history. Herein, we report the electrocatalytic function of an iron-ba ...

Resonance Energy Transfer Relates the Gas-Phase Structure and Pharmacological Activity of Opioid Peptides

Oleg Boyarkine, Vladimir Kopysov

Enkephalins are efficient pain-relief drugs that bind to transmembrane opioid receptors. One key structural param- eter that governs the pharmacological activity of these opioid peptides and is typically determined from condensed-phase structures is the di ...

Conformations of prolyl-peptide bonds in the bradykinin 1-5 fragment in solution and in the gas phase

Thomas Rizzo, Antoine Louis Claude Masson, Michael Zachary Kamrath, Liudmila Voronina, Carsten Baldauf

The dynamic nature of intrinsically disordered peptides makes them a challenge to characterize by solution-phase techniques. In order to gain insight into the relation between the disordered state and the environment, we explore the conformational space of ...
