The results have shown that it is not just the abundance of a given type of species on the surface that impacts the activity of a system but also the ease of extraction of ions from their surface (time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry) and the response of the support to change in the feed composition (dynamic in situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) with variable atmosphere). The study utilizes the method of doping a catalyst (RuO<sub>2</sub>/CZ) with a small amount of alkali-metal (K<sup>+</sup> or Na<sup>+</sup>) carbonates in order to slightly modify its surface to gain insight into parameters that may cause discrepancies between model stream activity and complex stream activity. The most pronounced difference is that in the model stream, which contains only CO and O<sub>2</sub> in helium, both alkali ions improve the activity of the system at temperatures around 175 °C, whereas in the complex stream, which mimics the exhaust stream from a diesel engine under oxygen lean conditions, the K<sup>+</sup>-doped catalyst is slightly worse than RuO<sub>2</sub> /CZ and RuO<sub>2</sub> + Na<sup>+</sup>/CZ and much worse in propane combustion. The total hydrogen consumption values (temperature-programmed reduction) and the O<sub>ads</sub>/O<sub>latt</sub> ratios (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) both place the RuO<sub>2</sub> + K<sup>+</sup>/CZ system between the other two and hence provided no reason for the unusual behavior of the K<sup>+</sup>-doped catalyst. In contrast, both in situ XRD measurement tests and ToF SIMS results show a pronounced difference between the RuO<sub>2</sub> + K<sup>+</sup>/CZ catalyst and the other two systems, which indicates that the interaction of the surfaces with the reagents might be the cause of the discrepancy. The CO<sub>2</sub>-TPD results show that this system retains more CO<sub>2</sub>, i.e., the product, at adsorption sites, which might reduce the adsorption of other reagents, i.e., oxygen ions, CO, and propane, hence lowering the overall activity of the system.</p>","PeriodicalId":29798,"journal":{"name":"ACS Materials Au","volume":"4 6","pages":"643-653"},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11565278/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142649136","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we have synthesized two highly fluorescent organic emitters, 4BPy-PTA and 2BPy-PTA, and showed how moisture sensitivity can be enhanced by molecular design modification. Owing to the different nitrogen atom positions in the acceptor units, the emitters show different degrees of moisture sensitivity. Upon moisture exposure, both emitters change their emission color from greenish-yellow to blue, but a larger shift was witnessed in 4BPy-PTA (81 nm) than in 2BPy-PTA (68 nm). Moisture exposure enhances the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of 4BPy-PTA from 37 to 48%, whereas it suppresses the PLQY of 2BPy-PTA from 59 to 15%. A shorter moisture sensing time, large emission color shift, and enhanced PLQY make 4BPy-PTA a better moisture-sensitive material than 2BPy-PTA. Interestingly, the emission colors of the emitters can be completely regained by heating and partially by applying mechanical force to the moisture-exposed solids. In addition, these emitters also show mechanochromic luminescence behavior with a completely reversible emission color switch between blue and green.","PeriodicalId":29798,"journal":{"name":"ACS Materials Au","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142210835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The derivatives containing acridine or phenoxazine moieties exhibit bipolar charge transport. At an electric field of 5.8 × 10<sup>5</sup> V/cm, hole and electron mobilities of the phenoxazine-containing compound reach 3.2 × 10<sup>–4</sup> and 1.5 × 10<sup>–4</sup> cm<sup>2</sup> V<sup>–1</sup> s<sup>–1</sup>, respectively. Among the studied SSE-TADF-based organic light-emitting diodes, the device containing this compound shows the highest external quantum efficiency of 12.3% due to the good charge-transporting and SSE-TADF parameters of the emitter.","PeriodicalId":29798,"journal":{"name":"ACS Materials Au","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142210944","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
