Correlation between Optical Activity and the Helical Molecular Orbitals of Allene and Cumulenes

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Marc Hamilton Folkmann Garner

Helical frontier molecular orbitals (MOs) appear in disubstituted allenes and even-n cumulenes. Chiral molecules are optically active, but while these molecules are single-handed chiral, p-orbitals of both helicities are present. Here we computationally ex ...

Quantifying the Limits of Detection of Surface-Enhanced Infrared Spectroscopy with Grating Order-Coupled Nanogap Antennas

Hatice Altug, Andreas Tittl, Aurélian Michel John-Herpin

Infrared spectroscopy is widely used for biomolecular studies, but struggles when investigating minute quantities of analytes due to the mismatch between vibrational cross sections and IR wavelengths. It is therefore beneficial to enhance absorption signal ...

The thermal triple-axis-spectrometer EIGER at the continuous spallation source SINQ

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow

EIGER is the new thermal triple-axis-spectrometer at the continuous spallation SINQ at PSI. The shielding of the monochromator consists only of non- or low magnetizable materials, which allows the use of strong magnetic fields with the instrument. This shi ...

A New Perspective in the Use of FeOx-TiO2 Photocatalytic Films: Indole Degradation in the Absence of Fe-Leaching

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi

The study addresses the degradation of Indole under low intensity solar simulated light. The first evidence is presented for sputtered films degrading Indole at the solid-air interface. The co-sputtering of FeOx-TiO2 on polyethylene (PE) leads to an accele ...
