Bromination of marine particulate organic matter through oxidative mechanisms

September 14, 2014
Author(s)
Bruce D. Ravel, Alessandra C. Leri, Kathleen Thornton, Lawrence M. Mayer
Although bromine is considered conservative in seawater, it exhibits a well established correlation with organic carbon in marine sediments. This carbon-bromine association was recently attributed to covalent bonding, with organobromine in sinking

Recommended isolated-line profile for representing high-resolution spectroscopic transitions

September 11, 2014
Author(s)
Joseph T. Hodges, Jonathan Tennyson, P F. Bernath, Alain Campargue, A Csaszar, L Daumont, R R. Gamache, D Lisak, Olga Naumenko, Lawrence Rothman, Ha Tran, N Zobov, Boone Chris, L Gianfrani, Jean M. Hartmann
Recommendations of an IUPAC Task Group formed in 2011 on “Intensities and line shapes in high-resolution spectra of water isotopologues from Experiment and Theory" (Project No. 2011-022-2- 100) on line profiles of high-resolution rotational-vibrational

Pairwise Alignment of Chromatograms using a Fisher-Rao Metric

September 2, 2014
Author(s)
William E. Wallace, Anuj Srivastava, Kelly H. Telu, Yamil Simon
A new approach to aligning chromatograms is introduced and applied to examples of metabolite identification by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC MS). A square root representation of the chromatogram’s derivative coupled with a Fisher Rao

Vibronic Coupling in Asymmetric Bichromophores: Experimental Investigation of Diphenylmethane-d5

August 14, 2014
Author(s)
Nathan Pillsbury, Nathanael M. Kidwell, Benjamin Nebgen, Lyudmila V. Slipchenko, Kevin O. Douglass, John R. Cable, David F. Plusquellic
Vibrationally and rotationally resolved electronic spectra of diphenylmethane-d5 (DPM-d5) are reported in the isolated-molecule environment of a supersonic expansion. While small, the asymmetry induced by deuteration of one of the aromatic rings is

Attachment of a Reduction-Oxidative Active Diruthenium Compound to Au and Si Surfaces by “Click” Chemistry

August 10, 2014
Author(s)
Sujitra J. Pookpanratana, Joseph W. Robertson, Curt A. Richter, Christina A. Hacker, Lee J. Richter, Julia Savchenko, Steven Cummings, Tong Ren
We report the formation of molecular monolayers containing redox-active diruthenium(II,III) compound to gold and silicon surfaces via “click” chemistry. The use of Cu-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition enables modular design of molecular surfaces and

Polyelectrolyte Multilayers in Microfluidic Systems for Biological Applications

July 31, 2014
Author(s)
Saugandhika S. Minnikanti, Aveek Gangopadhyay, Darwin Reyes-Hernandez
The formation of polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs) for the first time two decades ago demonstrating the assembly on charged substrates in a very simple and efficient way have proven to be a reliable method to obtain structures tunable at the nanometer

High-Speed Coherent Raman Fingerprint Imaging of Biological Tissues

July 20, 2014
Author(s)
Charles H. Camp, Young J. Lee, John M. Heddleston, Christopher M. Hartshorn, Angela R. Hight Walker, Jeremy N. Rich, Justin D. Lathia, Marcus T. Cicerone
We have developed a coherent Raman imaging platform using broadband coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (BCARS) that provides an unprecedented combination of speed, sensitivity, and spectral breadth. The system utilizes a unique configuration of laser

Low Temperature Plasma for Bevel Crater Depth Profiling of Crosslinking Organic Multilayers: Comparison with C60 and Argon Gas Cluster Sources

July 6, 2014
Author(s)
Shinichiro Muramoto, Derk Rading, Brian G. Bush, John G. Gillen, David G. Castner
A model delta layer system made of thin films of an organometallic chelate and an aromatic molecule (aluminum hydroxyquinolinate and bathocuproine), both that crosslink under traditional ion beam irradiation, was used to evaluate the effectiveness of using

Final report of the key comparison CCQM-K98: Pb isotope amount ratios in bronze

July 1, 2014
Author(s)
Jochen Vogl, Yong-Hyeon Yim, Kyoung-Seok Lee, Heidi Goenaga-Infante, Dmitriy Malinowskiy, Tongxiang Ren, Jun Wang, Robert D. Vocke Jr., Karen E. Murphy, Naoko Nonose, Olaf Rienitz, Janine Noordmann, Teemu Naeykki, Timo Sara-Aho, Bet?l Ari, Oktay Cankur
Isotope amount ratios are proving useful in an ever increasing array of applications that range from studies unravelling transport processes, to pinpointing the provenance of specific samples as well as trace element quantification by using isotope

A Demonstration of Fast and Accurate Discrimination and Quantification of Chemically Similar Species Utilizing a Single Cross-Selective Chemiresistor

June 14, 2014
Author(s)
Alexander (. Vergara Tinoco, Kurt D. Benkstein, Christopher B. Montgomery, Stephen Semancik
Performance characteristics of gas-phase microsensors will determine the ultimate utility of these devices for a wide range of chemical monitoring applications. Considerable effort has led to electronic nose devices that utilize multiple cross-selective

Flux growth of Yb6.6Ir6Sn16 having mixed valent ytterbium

June 12, 2014
Author(s)
Sebastian Peter, Udumula Subbarao, Sudhindra Rayaprol, Joshua B. Martin, Mahalingam Balasubramanian, Christos D. Malliakas, Mercouri G. Kanatzidis
The new compound Yb6.6Ir6Sn16 was obtained as single crystals in high yield from the reaction of Yb with Ir and Sn run in excess indium. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows that Yb6.6Ir6Sn16 crystallizes in the tetragonal space group P42/nmc

Mid-Infrared Time-Resolved Frequency Comb Spectroscopy of Transient Free Radicals
