Bulk Heterojunction versus Diffused Bilayer: The Role of Device Geometry in Solution p-Doped Polymer-Based Solar Cells
Anna Loiudice, Aurora Rizzo, Mariano Biasiucci, and Giuseppe Gigli
J. Phys. Chem. Lett., 2012, 3 (14), pp 1908–1915
We exploit the effect of molecular p-type doping of P3HT in diffused bilayer (DB) polymer solar cells. In this alternative device geometry, the p-doping is accomplished in solution by blending the F4-TCNQ with P3HT. The p-doping both increases the film conductivity and reduces the potential barrier at the interface with the electrode. This results in an excellent power conversion efficiency of 4.02%, which is an improvement of 48% over the p-doped standard bulk heterojunction (BHJ) device. Combined VOC–light intensity dependence measurements and Kelvin probe force microscopy reveal that the DB device configuration is particularly advantageous, if compared to the conventional BHJ, because it enables optimization of the donor and acceptor layers independently to minimize the effect of trapping and to fully exploit the improved transport properties.

Ag@SiO2 Core–Shell Nanostructures: Distance-Dependent Plasmon Coupling and SERS Investigation J. Phys. Chem. Lett., 2012, 3 (11), pp 1459–1464
Enhancement of Raman signals of pyrene due to the enhanced electric fields on the surface of silver nanoparticles has been investigated by controlling the thickness of the silica shell. Dimeric nanostructures having well-defined gaps between two silver nanoparticles were prepared, and the gap size (d) was varied from 1.5 to 40 nm. The molecules trapped at the dimeric junctions showed higher Raman signal enhancements when the gap was less than 15 nm due to the presence of amplified electric field, in agreement with our theoretical studies. The experimental Raman enhancement factors at the hot spots follow a 1/dn dependence, with n = 1.5, in agreement with the recent theoretical studies by Schatz and co-workers. Experimental results presented here on the distance dependence of surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) enhancement at the hot spots can provide insight on the design of newer plasmonic nanostructures with optimal nanogaps.

The Effect of the π-Electron Delocalization Curvature on the Two-Photon Circular Dichroism of Molecules with Axial Chirality
Herein we report on the theoretical-experimental study of the effect of curvature of the π-electron delocalization on the two-photon circular dichroism (TPCD) of a family of optically active biaryl derivatives (S-BINOL, S-VANOL, and S-VAPOL). The comparative analysis of the influence of the different transition moments to their corresponding TPCD rotatory strength reveals an enhanced contribution of the magnetic transition dipole moment on VAPOL. This effect is hereby attributed to the additional twist in the π–electron delocalization on this compound. TPCD measurements were done using the double L-scan technique in the picosecond regime. Theoretical calculations were completed using modern analytical response theory, within a time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) approach, at both, B3LYP and CAM-B3LYP levels, with the aug-cc-pVDZ basis set for S-BINOL and S-VANOL, and 6-31G* for S-VAPOL. Solvent effects were included by means of the polarizable continuum model (PCM) in CH2Cl2.

Atomically Resolved Site-Isolated Catalyst on MgO: Mononuclear Osmium Dicarbonyls formed from Os3(CO)12
Abstract: Supported triosmium clusters, formed from Os3(CO)12 on MgO, were treated in helium at 548 K for 2 h, causing fragmentation of the cluster frame and the formation of mononuclear osmium dicarbonyls. The cluster breakup and the resultant fragmented species were characterized by infrared and X-ray absorption spectroscopies, and the fragmented species were imaged by scanning transmission electron microscopy. The spectra identify the surface osmium complexes as Os(CO)2{Osupport}n (n = 3 or 4) (where the braces denote support surface atoms). The images show site-isolated Os atoms in mononuclear osmium species on MgO. The intensity analysis on the images of the MgO(110) face showed that the Os atoms were located atop Mg columns. This information led to a model of the Os(CO)2 on MgO(110), with the distances approximated as those determined by EXAFS spectroscopy, which are an average over the whole MgO surface; the results imply that these complexes were located at Mg vacancies.

Francesca Gottschalk from the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation presents at the Ask an Expert Webinar: How can education support child empowerment?
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Motivations for This Project
• The design of a fast and efficient synthesis of atomically precise
nanoclusters (NCs) is pivotal in realizing their practical
applications in areas such as biomedical and catalysis.
- Currently, there are two main synthetic strategies for the
synthesis of atomically precise Au NCs.
1. Thiolate-protected Au NCs based on the unique thiolate-Au interactions.
2. Template-directed Au NCs based on the steric hindrance provided by the
template molecules.
- A paradigm shift synthetic strategy (protection-deprotection
method) was developed in this study.
1. Inspired from the protection-deprotection strategy in organic synthesis to
achieve chemoselectivity.
2. Integrated two main synthesis strategies into one protocol: unique
thiolate-Au interactions + steric hindrance of the templates.
3. Faster and more efficient.

• Protection: a removable CTAB layer was introduced to protect the thiolate-
AuI complexes during the NaBH4 reduction, leading to the direct formation of
thiolated Au25 NCs.
• Deprotection: the CTAB layer was removed by the addition of a hydrophobic
anionic surfactant, shuttling back the NCs to the aqueous phase.

steric hindrance of a removable template (CTAB) into one
synthetic protocol.

purity thiolated Au25 NCs.
