The molecular packing architecture parameter θT (the angle of the projected hopping path of dimers relative to the reference axis) and the ratio R (the ratio between the transfer integrals...

Herein, thin film and single crystal phototransistors based on 2,6-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)anthracene (BOPAnt) are systematically studied.

In-plane isotropic charge transport single crystal FET with mobility exceeding 15 cm2V−1s−1is obtained, the result is desirable in large-area single-crystal FET arrays.

The functional poly(2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) brush was grafted onto the alkyl-bromide-modified magnetite/ silica/poly(N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide-co-2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate) (Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @PHEMA) trilayer microspheres via the surface-induced atom transfer radical polymerization. Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @PHEMA trilayer microspheres with surface alkyl bromide groups were prepared by the combination of sol−gel process for the synthesis of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 core−shell inorganic component and distillation−precipitation polymerization for the formation of PHEMA shell together with the subsequent esterification of the surface hydroxyl group and 2bromoisobutyryl bromide. Furthermore, the gold nanoparticles were facilely loaded into the functional PDMAEMA brushes through the in situ reduction due to their strong coordinate interaction. These PDMAEMA brush-stabilized gold nanocolloids were used as a catalyst with the reduction of 4-nitophenol to 4-aminophenol as a model reaction, which revealed a highly catalytic efficiency and good reusable property.
