One series of regio- defined oligothiophenes up to the octamer was prepared and evaluated. Photoluminescence quantum efficiencies in solution were 22-31 %, but dropped to 2-5 % in the solid state. One oligothiophene in this series was evaluated as a new matrix for MALDI-TOF, with promising results. Another project deals with development of oligothiophenes with "in-chain" chirality, which may find use in polarizing light-emitting diodes. Oligothiophene-porphyrin hybrid materials were synthesized for evaluation as active components in light-producing and/or -harvesting devices. Finally, a novel and simplified synthesis of EDOT, which is a major monomer in oligothiophene chemistry, is presented. Sammanfattning Denna avhandling handlar om syntes och karakterisering av nya oligotiofener och dess derivat. Dessa är tänkta att användas i halvledarapplikationer.

A fit of the experimental P–V data to the Vinet equation of state yields bulk modulus B0 of 42.2(1.4) GPa and its first pressure derivative B0′ of 7.6(2) that are in excellent agreement with our ab initio calculations. Formation of a new high-pressure phase of boron monosulfide (hp-BS) has been observed above 35 GPa. According to ab initio evolutionary crystal structure predictions combined with Rietveld refinement of high-pressure X-ray diffraction data, the structure of hp-BS has trigonal symmetry and belongs to the space group P-3m1. As it follows from electron density of states calculations, the phase transformation is accompanied by an insulator-metal transition. Keywords : boron sulfide; high pressure; equation of state; phase transition I. Introduction The AIIIBVI semiconductors (GaS, GaSe, InS, InSe, etc.) are promising materials for solar cells, nonlinear optics, photovoltaic energy converters, radiation detectors, photoresistors and solid-state batteries [1-3].

  • List of Hazardous Substances and Reportable Quantities 1. This Appendix Lists Materials
    172.101 App A Appendix A to §172.101 - List of Hazardous Substances and Reportable Quantities 1. This Appendix lists materials and their corresponding reportable quantities (RQ's) that are listed or designated as "hazardous substances'' under section 101(14) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. 9601(14) (CERCLA; 42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq). This listing fulfills the requirement of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9656(a), that all ``hazardous substances,'' as defined in 42 U.S.C. 9601(14), be listed and regulated as hazardous materials under 49 U.S.C. 5101-5127. That definition includes substances listed under sections 311(b)(2)(A) and 307(a) of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, 33 U.S.C. 1321(b)(2)(A) and 1317(a), section 3001 of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, 42 U.S.C. 6921, and section 112 of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7412. In addition, this list contains materials that the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency has determined to be hazardous substances in accordance with section 102 of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9602. It should be noted that 42 U.S.C. 9656(b) provides that common and contract carriers may be held liable under laws other than CERCLA for the release of a hazardous substance as defined in that Act, during transportation that commenced before the effective date of the listing and regulating of that substance as a hazardous material under 49 U.S.C. 5101-5127. 2. This Appendix is divided into two TABLES which are entitled "TABLE 1-HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES OTHER THAN RADIONUCLIDES'' and "TABLE 2-RADIONUCLIDES.'' A material listed in this Appendix is regulated as a hazardous material and a hazardous substance under this subchapter if it meets the definition of a hazardous substance in §171.8 of this subchapter.
