Local protonation control using plasmonic activation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Localized protonation of 4-mercaptopyridine (4-MPY), activated by light in the presence of silver nanoparticles is monitored under ambient conditions using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and tip-enhanced Raman scattering (TERS). The reaction can be controlled by the excitation wavelength and the atmospheric conditions, thus, providing a tool for site-specific control of protonation.

Protonation of Propene on Silica-Grafted Hydroxylated Molybdenum and Tungsten Oxide Metathesis Catalysts: A DFT Study
Theoretical assessment of the protonation reaction in the activation of propene on hydroxylated Mo(VI) and W(VI) metathesis catalysts is presented in this paper using the density functional theory calculations and five support clusters varying from simple SiO4H3 clusters to a large Si4O13H9 cluster. The bond distances and thermochemical...
متن کاملNanoscale control of optical heating in complex plasmonic systems.
We introduce a numerical technique to investigate the temperature distribution in arbitrarily complex plasmonic systems subject to external illumination. We perform both electromagnetic and thermodynamic calculations based upon a time-efficient boundary element method. Two kinds of plasmonic systems are investigated in order to illustrate the potential of such a technique. First, we focus on in...
متن کاملAntenna-assisted picosecond control of nanoscale phase- transition in vanadium dioxide
Nanoscale devices in which the interaction with light can be configured using external control signals hold great interest for next-generation optoelectronic circuits. Materials exhibiting a structural or electronic phase transition offer a large modulation contrast with multi-level optical switching and memory functionalities. In addition, plasmonic nanoantennas can provide an efficient enhanc...
متن کاملTwo protonation switches control rhodopsin activation in membranes.
Activation of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) rhodopsin is initiated by light-induced isomerization of the retinal ligand, which triggers 2 protonation switches in the conformational transition to the active receptor state Meta II. The first switch involves disruption of an interhelical salt bridge by internal proton transfer from the retinal protonated Schiff base (PSB) to its counterion...
متن کاملA Local Power Control Scheme for Electronically Interfaced Distributed Generators in Islanded Microgrids
The conventional real power-frequency and reactive power-voltage droop characteristics are commonly employed to share the electric power among parallel distributed generation (DG) units. Despite some advantages such as easy implementation and no need for communication infrastructure, inaccurate reactive power sharing is one of the main disadvantages of conventional droop control. This paper pre...
