Molecular Conformation in Charge Tunneling across Large-Area Junctions

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 8.

TL;DR: Results from open chain and cyclic head groups show that, as expected, distribution in tunneling data correlates with the orientation of the head group, akin to the odd-even effect and more importantly the degree of conformational freedom, but fluctuates with applied bias.

Stabilization of Undercooled Metals via Passivating Oxide Layers

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 60(11), 5928–5935.

By: A. Martin*, B. Chang*, A. Pauls*, C. Du* & M. Thuo*

author keywords: energy landscape; inductive effect; metastability; phase transformation; stable undercooling
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the integrity of the passivation oxide is critical in stabilizing undercooled particle, a key tenet in developing heat-free solders, that inductive effects play a critical role in undercooling, and that magnitude of the effect of thepassivating oxide can be larger that of size in under cooling.
