Ultrasonic spray pyrolysis and electroless deposition for the synthesis of nanostructured metal / carbon microspheres
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Chemistry, 2014)The objective of this work is to synthesis various nano-metallic carbon microsphere composite materials for environmental and catalytic applications. Ultrasonic spray pyrolysis and electroless deposition techniques were ... -
Understanding carbon-biomolecules interactions for the rational design of carbon-based biomaterials
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Chemistry. Discipline of Chemistry, 2018)Carbon-based materials have shown an outstanding performance in the biomedical field and the desire of understanding the impressive bioresponse towards carbon materials is an attractive prospect for design of improved ... -
Unravelling the Pivotal Role of Atropisomerism for Cellular Internalization
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Chemistry. Discipline of Chemistry, 2022)Atropisomerism presents an intriguing, often neglected, source of varied biological activity in drug development. For a stable atropisomeric drug mixture, assessment of individual atropisomers may reveal an individual ... -
Uranium Thiocyanate Compounds in Multiple Oxidation States
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Chemistry. Discipline of Chemistry, 2019)A comprehensive structural, magnetic, spectroscopic and computational study has been carried out on a series of high symmetry 5f2 uranium(IV) thiocyanate and selenocyanate complexes, of formula A4[U(NCS(e))8] (A = Me4N, ... -
Ureasil Architectures for Organic-Inorganic Photoactive Hybrid Materials
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Chemistry. Discipline of Chemistry, 2018)Ureasils are Class II organic-inorganic hybrids consisting of poly(oxyalkylene) chains covalently linked to a siliceous network via urea bridges. Ureasil monoliths are photoluminescent, waveguiding and photo- and thermally ... -
