Paracelsus erhält eine Gedenktafel an der Universität Basel
Die Akademie der Naturwissenschaften Schweiz ehrt das Schaffen des Schweizer Arztes, Alchemisten und Naturphilosophen Paracelsus in Basel mit dem Chemical Landmark 2020. Am Pharmaziemuseum der Universität Basel wurde eine Gedenktafel…
A counterion study of a series of [Cu(P^P)(N^N)][A] compounds with bis(phosphane) and 6-methyl and 6,6′-dimethyl-substituted 2,2′-bipyridine ligands for light-emitting electrochemical cells
The choice of counterion in heteroleptic copper(I) luminophores for LECs has a critical effect on the photoluminescence quantum yields of the solid materials, and on the device figures-of-merit.
Coordination networks assembled from Co(NCS)2 and 4′-[4-(naphthalen-1-yl)phenyl]-3,2′:6′,3″-terpyridine: Role of lattice solvents
The dependence upon the assemblies of coordination networks formed between 4′-[4-(naphthalen-1-yl)phenyl]-3,2′:6′,3″-terpyridine and Co(NCS)2 on the lattice solvent is reported, and thermogravimetric analysis was used to investigate solvent…
An ironclad future
Solar energy plays an important role in the fight against climate change as a substitute for fossil fuels. Dye-sensitized solar cells promise to be a low-cost supplement to the photovoltaic systems we know today. Their key feature is the…
TADF: Enabling luminescent copper(I) coordination compounds for light-emitting electrochemical cells
Over the last ten years, there has been growing interest in the development of luminescent heteroleptic copper(i) coordination compounds. These developments encompass both neutral compounds which may have applications in OLEDs and cationic…
Dalton Transactions celebrates their Golden Authors: Prof. Catherine Housecroft and Prof. Ed Constable
For their great contribution of over 50 publications in the journal they were invited to give an interview. They were asked about their research, opinions, advises, experiences and thoughts all about and around Dalton Transactions.
