Bulk II-VI and III-V single-crystal semiconductors provide an appealing coupling of chemical,
electrical, and optical properties that can be exploited in the design of chemical sensors. The …

Grafting organic molecules onto solid surfaces can transfer molecular properties to the solid.
We describe how modifications of semiconductor or metal surfaces by molecules with …

We have shown that Pseudomonas aeruginosa azurin can be immobilized on alkanethiol
monolayers self-assembled on Au (111). Immobilization is achieved through hydrophobic …

Recent research towards luminescent molecular chemosensors in which sensing is
achieved via binding of analytes as ligands to metal-based receptors is described. In some …

Abstract Evaporation of ultrathin (1.3–10 nm nominal thickness) gold films onto quartz or
mica leads to the formation of a layer of rather uniform gold islands on the transparent …

Recent years have seen rapid progress in the field of surface-confined coordination
chemistry. Adsorbed metal complexes of tetrapyrroles (porphyrins, phthalocyanines …

Here we demonstrate a simple, low cost, and green synthetic approach to synthesizing
water-soluble, nitrogen-doped, fluorescent carbon quantum dots (NCQDs) from lemon juice …

In this combined experimental and theoretical work we demonstrate at the example of
tetraphenylporphyrins on Ag (111) how differences in individual adsorbate orbitals and their …

BNCT= Boron neutron capture therapy; BzNH2= Benzylamine; 1-or N-BzIm= 1-or N-
benzylimidazole; COSY= HomonuclearJ-Correlated SpectroscopY (a twodimensional NMR …

The optical O2 recognition capability of a covalently assembled monolayer (CAM) of 5, 10,
15-tri-{p-dodecanoxyphenyl}-20-(p-hydroxyphenyl) porphyrin on silica-based substrates …
