<i>cis</i> → <i>trans</i> photoisomerisation of azobenzene: a fresh theoretical look

چکیده
The cis → trans photo-isomerisation of azobenzene, after excitation to the nπ* and ππ* states, is revisited theoretically using non-adiabatic dynamics simulations in order reproduce rationalize experimentally measured quantum yields.

Theoretical study of interaction of 4-amino phenyl-azobenzene with (SWCNTs), A DFT method
The electronic and structural properties of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) interacted with 4-amino phenyl-azobenzene were theoretically investigated by using the hybrid DFT (hybrid-density functional theory) calculations. The amount of thermodynamic parameters of this reaction in the gas and aqueous phase suggesting thermodynamic favourability for adsorption of 4-amino phenyl-azobenzene ...
متن کاملOptical switching of coupled plasmons of Ag-nanoparticles by photoisomerisation of an azobenzene ligand.
The optical switching of coupled plasmons of silver nanoparticles derivatised with a photoisomerisable azobenzene ligand is presented. It is shown that nanoparticle clusters, linked with an azobenzene dithiol molecule, display switchable optical properties. The photoisomerisation of the linker molecule was used to vary the separation between nanoparticles, which was monitored by changes in the ...

متن کاملPhotoisomerisation and ligand-controlled reversible aggregation of azobenzene-functionalised gold nanoparticles.
The photochemical behaviour of functionalised gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) carrying azobenzenethiolate-alkylthiolate monolayers was investigated. Repeated trans-cis and cis-trans isomerisation cycles could be performed in all cases with high efficiency. Reversible photoinduced aggregation was observed when azothiolates with long alkyl spacers (≥C7) were combined with short (C5) alkylthiolate coli...
متن کاملA fresh look at preoperative body washing
National guidelines do not support preoperative body washing to reduce surgical site infections, instead recommending bathing or showering with soap. Yet preoperative body washing continues to be widely used in many hospitals across Europe. This paper suggests that existing trials of preoperative body washing, upon which guidelines are based, are dated and proposes a new investigation of preope...
