Magnetic control of MOF crystal orientation and alignment (2017)
Journal Article
Cheng, F., Marshall, E. S., Young, A. J., Robinson, P. J., Bouillard, J. S. G., Adawi, A. M., …Chin, J. M. (2017). Magnetic control of MOF crystal orientation and alignment. Chemistry: a European journal, 23(62), 15578-15582. https://doi.org/10.1002/chem.201703812

Most metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) possess anisotropic properties, the full exploitation of which necessitates a general strategy for the controllable orientation of such MOF crystals. Current methods largely rely upon layer-by-layer MOF epitaxy or... Read More about Magnetic control of MOF crystal orientation and alignment.

Dual wavelength (ultraviolet and green) photodetectors using solution processed zinc oxide nanoparticles (2017)
Journal Article
O'Neill, M., Ibrahem, M. A., Verrelli, E., Lai, K. T., Kyriakou, G., Lee, A. F., …O’Neill, M. (2017). Dual wavelength (ultraviolet and green) photodetectors using solution processed zinc oxide nanoparticles. ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 9(42), 36971-36979. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsami.7b08092

Narrow-band photoconductivity with a spectral width of 0.16 eV is obtained from solution-processed colloidal ZnO nanocrystals beneath the band-edge at 2.25 eV. A new model involving electron transfer from deep defects to discrete shallow donors is in...

Silicon diimide gel as an efficient stationary phase in thin layer chromatography for acid-sensitive organic compounds (2017)
Journal Article
Kitney, S. P., Sajedin, S. M., Rocher, V., Cheng, F., & Kelly, S. M. (2017). Silicon diimide gel as an efficient stationary phase in thin layer chromatography for acid-sensitive organic compounds. Chemical communications : Chem comm / the Royal Society of Chemistry, 53(80), 11080-11082. https://doi.org/10.1039/c7cc04952h

We report the use of mesoporous silicon diimide gel as a basic stationary phase in thin layer chromatography for the characterisation and purification of acid-sensitive compounds. The gel is prepared by a simple sol-gel process and exhibits a large s...
