Color and flavor development of roasted jackfruit (Artocarpus hetrophyllus L.) seeds by Azeez, Shakirah Omotoke

“…The major functional group with the highest intensity in both raw and roasted JFS was the C-O bond stretch of esters. A total of 95 compounds were identified using the gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O) on a diphenyl dimethyl polysiloxane (DB-5) and free fatty acid phase (FFAP) columns. …”

Localized structural and bulk effects in hybrid organic-inoraginc perovskites by Wong, Walter Pei De

“…Through a combination of steady state photoinduced absorption, transient absorption and transient photocurrent measurements, this chapter has confirmed the existence of theoretically predicted polaronic states in MAPbI3 which finds its origins in the ‘soft’ lead – iodide bond. Chapter 5 primarily revolves around the 2-dimensional (2D) layered <110> cut of perovskite where this class of hybrid perovskites are known for several remarkable properties, such as white light emission or sometimes also called broadband emission. …”

Ag3XO4 (X = P, As, V)电子结构及光催化性质的第一性原理计算 = First-principles study on the electronic and photocatalytic properties of Ag3XO4 (X = P, As, V) by 李蛟 Li Jiao, 陈忠 Chen Zhong

“…In comparison to Ag3PO4, Ag3VO4 shows better photocatalytic stability, mainly due to the enhanced Ag―O bonds and improved Ag ion stability, but poorer photocatalytic activity in the visible light region mainly due to the presence of d orbital character at the conduction band minimum (CBM) and lower valence band maximum (VBM) potentials (2.335 V, vs NHE). …”
