The authors would like to add Stefan Beschnitt, who performed SIMS line scans, to the authors’ list in 5th position of their paper published in Inorganics[...]

Nanostructured dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are promising photovoltaic devices because of their low cost and transparency. Ruthenium polypyridine complexes have long been considered as lead sensitizers for DSSCs, allowing them to reach up to 11...

The illumination direction and temperature can greatly affect the performance of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) when practical non-volatile solvents are used with bulky one-electron redox mediators such as cobalt tris(bipyridine). For higher perf...

We report the synthesis, structural and magnetic characterization of five mononuclear DyIII ion complexes using triphenylphosphine oxide as a monodentate ligand. They have formulae [DyIII(OPPh3)3(NO3)3] (1), [DyIII(OPPh3)4(NO3)2](NO3) (2), [DyIII(OPP...

Nickel nitrate diammine, Ni(NH3)2(NO3)2, can be synthesised from the thermal decomposition of nickel nitrate hexammine, Ni[(NH3)6](NO3)2. The hexammine decomposes in two distinct major stages; the first releases 4 equivalents of ammonia while the sec...

Molecular engineering of high energy barrier Ueff in single-molecule magnets (SMMs) of general composition MoIIIkVIIm based on orbitally-degenerate pentagonal-bipyramidal [MoIII(CN)7]4− complexes with unquenched orbital momentum and high-spin V...

This paper reports the synthesis of Fe-titanate nanotubes by means of the conventional ion-exchange method with iron nitrate solutions. As the iron-rich nanotubes were found to contain the catalyst precursor intrinsically dispersed in their structure...

Herein, we describe the preparation, characterization and photophysical properties of neutral lanthanide complexes containing a redox-active ligand 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-phenanthrol (papl). The complexes likely share similar structural features and bear...

Surface-bound heteroleptic copper(I) dyes [Cu(Lanchor)(Lancillary)]+ are assembled using the “surfaces-as-ligands, surfaces as complexes” (SALSAC) approach by three different procedures. The anchoring and ancillary ligands chosen are ((6,...

Reactivity studies of silyliumylidenes remain scarce with only a handful of publications to date. Herein we report the activation of S–H bonds in hydrogen sulfide by mTer-silyliumylidene ion A (mTer = 2,6-Mes2-C6H3, Mes = 2,4,6-Me3-C6H2) to yie...
