Singlet oxygen interacting with muonium in liquid water
When a muonium in liquid water encounters with a singlet oxygen molecule, it will go through a different reaction/spin conversion mechanism compared with the known case of the... -
Understanding high-performance light-emitting diodes based on carbene-metal-a...
The technology of organic electronics unlocks new ways to create semiconductor devices which are impossible using more conventional materials. The organic semiconductors at... -
Laser-induced electron transfer in Trp-Tyr
We wish to perform longitudinal field measurements on the dipeptide Trp-Tyr under laserexcitation, to probe the electron transfer process within the molecule. We have already... -
Vibrations of a muoniated radical center and photochemistry in benzophenone
Benzophenone is an ideal material to study vibrations of a muon radical centre with near-IR laser light, as all C=O bonds in solid state are almost parallel to each other and it... -
Excited/Ground State of Kekulé di-radical Material Bisphenalenyl
Kekulé di-radical (KDR) with two radical centers of independent spins has a low-spin ground state (singlet S0 with antiparallel spins), and interestingly high-spin triplets (T1)... -
