Salts as additives: A route to improve performance and stability of n-type organic electrochemical transistors

March 9, 2023
Author(s)
David Ohayon, Lucas Flagg, Andrea Giugni, Shofarul Wustoni, Ruipeng Li, Tania Hidalgo, Abdul Hamid Emwas, Rajendar Sheelamanthula, Iain McCulloch, Lee J. Richter, Sahika Inal
Organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) are becoming increasingly ubiquitous in a wide variety of applications at the interface with biological systems, including biosensing, neuromorphic computing, and logic circuits. The widespread use of these

Resolving Complex Photoconductivity of Perovskite and Organic Semiconductor Films Using Phase-Sensitive Microwave Interferometry

March 2, 2023
Author(s)
Jasleen Bindra, Pragya Shrestha, Sebastian Engmann, Chad Cruz, Lea Nienhaus, Emily Bittle, Jason Campbell
Complex transient photoconductivity (Δσ) contains rich fingerprints of charge recombination dynamics in photoactive films. However, a direct measure of both real (Δσ′) and imaginary (Δσ″) components has proven difficult using conventional cavity-based time

Micelle formation and phase separation of poloxamer 188 and preservative molecules in aqueous solutions studied by small angle X-ray scattering

March 1, 2023
Author(s)
Rachel Ford, Peter H. Gilbert, Richard Gillilan, Qingqiu Huang, Roisin Donnelly, Ken Qian, David Allen, Norman Wagner, Yun Liu
Multi-injection pharmaceutical products such as insulin must be formulated to prevent aggregation and microbial contamination. Small-molecule preservatives and nonionic surfactants such as poloxamer 188 (P188) are thus often employed in protein drug

Control of Micro-and Nanostructure of Layered Double Hydroxides by Hydrothermal Treatment

February 23, 2023
Author(s)
Keiichiro Maegawa, Fan Zhang, Qiaxian Johnson, Mihaela Jitianu, Tan Wai Kian, Go Kawamura, Atsunori Matsuda, Andrei Jitianu
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are mixed M(II) and M(III) hydroxides with positively charged lamellar brucite layers and interlayered anions. LDHs attracted significant attention due to their anion and cation-exchange ability, adsorption capacity, and

6. THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF PURE GASES AND LIQUIDS

February 7, 2023
Author(s)
Vladimir Diky, Rich Elliott
Methods are presented in this chapter foremost for estimating the volumetric behavior of pure gases and liquids as a function of temperature and pressure. Relationships between P, V, and T are formally known as equations of state (EOSs).

7. THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF MIXTURES

February 7, 2023
Author(s)
Rich Elliott, Vladimir Diky
Methods are presented in this chapter to estimate the volumetric, enthalpic, and entropic properties and their derivatives for mixtures of gases and liquids as a function of temperature, pressure, and composition as expressed in mole, mass, or volume

CHAPTER NINE. SPECIALIZED PHASE BEHAVIOR IN MIXTURES

February 7, 2023
Author(s)
Vladimir Diky, Rich Elliott
Vapor liquid equilibrium (VLE) in mixtures is strongly influenced by the vapor pressures of the pure components, especially when one compound is highly concentrated. This means that the bubble pressure is relatively insensitive to infinite dilution

Properties of Gases and Liquids. Chapter 3. Pure-component constants

February 7, 2023
Author(s)
Vladimir Diky, Thomas Knotts, Vincent Wilding, Rich Elliott
The properties of pure components are important for all aspects of process design and optimization. Pure-component properties also underlie much of the observed behavior of mixtures. For example, property models intended for the whole range of composition

Sustainable Additive Manufacturing of Polyelectrolyte Photopolymer Complexes

January 29, 2023
Author(s)
Thomas Kolibaba, Jason Killgore, Callie Higgins
Polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs), assemblies of oppositely charged polymers with powerful properties and wide-ranging applications, are currently not melt-processable via any conventional means and have been limited commercially to applications only as

Field-Deployable Devices

January 1, 2023
Author(s)
Thomas P. Forbes, Raychelle Burks
Reductions in instrument size, weight, and power continue to facilitate the development and application of field-deployable devices for investigative purposes. Portable analytical instrumentation supporting the rapid and reliable identification of two

Isotope Dilution Mass Spectrometry as an Independent Assessment for Mass Measurements of Milligram Quantities of Aqueous Solution

January 1, 2023
Author(s)
Richard Essex, Jacqueline L. Mann, Denis E. Bergeron, Ryan P. Fitzgerald, Svetlana Nour, Gordon A. Shaw, R. Michael Verkouteren
Isotope dilution mass spectrometry was used to independently assess the accuracy of mass measurement methods developed to quantitatively dispense milligram quantities of aqueous solution. Solutions of isotopically enriched 158Gd and enriched 155Gd were

Development of an Improved Standard Reference Material for Folate Vitamers in Human Serum

December 12, 2022
Author(s)
Johanna Camara, Jeanita Pritchett, Yasmine Daniels, Mary Bedner, Michael Nelson, Mark Lowenthal, Zia Fazili, Christine Pfeiffer, Karen W. Phinney, Katherine E. Sharpless, Lane C. Sander, Katrice Lippa, James H. Yen, Adam Kuszak, Stephen Wise
The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) developed a Standard Reference Material® (SRM®) 3949 Folate Vitamers in Frozen Human Serum to replace SRM 1955 Homocysteine and Folate in Human Serum. The presence of increased endogenous levels
