Abstract:
The mechanism of the oxidation of 3-mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA) by hydrogen peroxide was studied in the acidic pH range. The nucleophilic attack by sulphur on the peroxide bond controls the rate. Extrapolation of the pH dependency suggests that the rate of attack by the deprotonated dianion is highest. Traces of Fe(III), at levels below 10−7 mol dm−3, do not catalyze efficiently the process through one-electron mechanisms; at higher concentrations, or on the surface of iron(III) oxides, this type of catalysis becomes important. The electrochemical oxidation of 3-MPA was also studied, using

Abstract:
Gold nanoparticles (AuNP) has been used in a wide range of applications especially in medicine and optoelectronic applications due to its localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect. LSPR observation of AuNP solution shows that the plasmonic peak in the absorbance spectra lies in the range of visible light around 520 nm with deep red-wine color. The optical characteristic is controlled by the size and shape of the nanoparticles including its surface functionalization. Our research is focused on the adsorption study of 3-mercaptopropionate (3-MP) on AuNP (AuMP) surface synthesized by liga

Abstract:
Atomically precise metal clusters have attracted increasing interest owing to their unique size-dependent properties; however, little has been known about the effect of size on the catalytic properties of metal clusters at the single-cluster level. Here, by real-time monitoring with single-molecule fluorescence microscopy the size-dependent catalytic process of individual Au clusters at single-turnover resolution, we study the size-dependent catalytic behaviors of gold (Au) clusters at the single-cluster level, and then observe the strong size effect on the catalytic properties of individual A

CdSe quantum dots have been prepared with different sizes and exploited as inorganic dye to sensitize a wide bandgap TiO2thin films for QDs solar cells. The synthesis is based on the pyrolysis of organometallic reagents by injection into a hot coordinating solvent. This provides temporally discrete nucleation and permits controlled growth of macroscopic quantities of nanocrystallites. XRD, HRTEM, UV-visible, and PL were used to characterize the synthesized quantum dots.

A new nanohybrid material is prepared by attaching CdTe nanoneedles (NNs) to surface-modified ZnSe quantum dots (QDs). The NNs and QDs are prepared by a colloidal synthesis method in an aqueous alkaline medium. The surface modification and the attachment of nanostructures are achieved by a bifunctional ligand 3-mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA). The band gap of the ZnSe QDs is varied by controlling the size of the QDs in order to get the maximum overlap between the absorption band of the CdTe NNs and the emission band of the ZnSe QDs, which is a prerequisite for effective charge/energy transfer.
