Electron transfer is enhanced by minimal energetic driving force at the organic-semiconductor interface in upconversion (UC) organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), resulting in efficient blue UC-OLEDs ...

Proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) encompasses reactions in which the movement of an electron is directly linked to the transfer of a proton. This coupling can proceed by sequential ...

Researchers at Rice University have made a meaningful advance in the simulation of molecular electron transfer—a fundamental process underpinning countless physical, chemical and biological processes.

Learn how scientists are able to capture “snapshots” of extremely rapid processes, called proton-coupled electron transfer ...

Electron transfer mechanisms lie at the heart of antioxidant action, governing how molecules intercept and neutralise reactive species. Primary pathways include hydrogen atom transfer, in which an ...

Tracking a Missing Kinetic DimensionDissolved black carbon (DBC) is a mobile, redox-active fraction of carbon formed during biomass combustion and ...

The number of graphene layers determines specific properties. Both single-layer and bi-layer graphenes are zero band gap semiconductors because of the association between conduction and the valance ...

Electron transfer is an elementary process in which an electron is transferred or relocated from a donor molecule or atom to another such entity, called the acceptor. This process is fundamental to ...
