Fluoridobromate(V)–hydrogen fluoride cocrystallizates

Cocrystals of BrF5 and HF2− salts have been obtained for the first time in the form of the two compounds [NMe4][(BrF5)6(HF2)] and Cs2[(BrF5)6(HF2)(H2F3)]. These compounds are formed when hydrogen fluoride is present in reactions of BrF5 and...

Finite element analysis on the near field properties of metallic cavities with atomic sharpness

Using finite element calculations, we investigated the near field properties of two types of commonly used metal nanostructures (a tip-substrate model representing a scanning tunneling microscope type setup (TS) and a nanoparticle-on-mirror...

Functionalization of polyoxometalates: towards advanced applications in catalysis and materials science

Functionalization via covalent grafting of organic functions allows to tune the redox and acid-base properties, and the solubility of polyoxometalates, to enhance their stability and biological activity and to reduce their toxicity, to faci...
