Pillared MOFs: structure and ring opening polymerization of cyclic esters (2022)
Journal Article
Gong, Y., Cheng, F., Chen, F., Beamish-Cook, J., Elsegood, M. R., Elsegood, M. R. J., Derbyshire, M., Rowe, O., & Redshaw, C. (2023). Pillared MOFs: structure and ring opening polymerization of cyclic esters. CrystEngComm, 25(2), 267-283. https://doi.org/10.1039/d2ce01317g

The solvothermal reaction of Zn(NO3)2·6H2O with 5-aminoisophthalic acid and 4,4′-bipyridyl (4,4′-bipy) led to the self-assembly of the known 3-D hybrid H-bonded/covalent structure {[Zn(5-AIP)(4,4′-bipy)0.5]·DMF}n (1·DMF), but with DMF here (rather th...

Persistent near-infrared photoconductivity of ZnO nanoparticles based on plasmonic hot charge carriers (2022)
Journal Article
Ibrahem, M. A., Verrelli, E., Cheng, F., Adawi, A. M., Bouillard, J. S. G., & O'Neill, M. (2022). Persistent near-infrared photoconductivity of ZnO nanoparticles based on plasmonic hot charge carriers. Journal of applied physics, 131(10), Article 103103. https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0079006

We report on the coupling of ZnO nanoparticles with plasmonic gold nanoislands in a solution-processed photodetector, which results in a clear enhancement in the optical absorption and the electrical responsivity of ZnO nanoparticles, to cover the vi...
