Expedient synthesis of heterocycles and methyl sulfonyl compounds via C-X BONDS (X = O, N, S) construction by Jiang, Yaojia

“…In chapter 3, we have described two methodologies to synthesize multi-substituted pyridines from rhodium-catalyzed nitrene reaction and DBU-mediated ring opening of 2-allyl-2H-azirines. In chapter 4, we have described a radical strategy promoted by copper, oxygen and HPO(OEt)2 for the difunctionalization of alkenes to synthesize β-keto methyl sulfones; meanwhile, we have also demonstrated that alkynes could be directly undergo methyl sulfonylation to afford (E)-vinyl methyl sulfones through modification of the reaction condition.…”

Controlling Cherenkov angles with resonance transition radiation by Lin, Xiao, Easo, Sajan, Shen, Yichen, Chen, Hongsheng, Zhang, Baile, Joannopoulos, John D., Soljačić, Marin, Kaminer, Ido

“…However, since the Cherenkov angle depends only on the material’s permittivity, the material unavoidably sets a fundamental limit to the momentum coverage and sensitivity of Cherenkov detectors. For example, ring-imaging Cherenkov detectors must employ materials transparent to the frequency of interest as well as possessing permittivities close to unity to identify particles in the multi-gigaelectronvolt range, and thus are often limited to large gas chambers. …”

The effect of bonding structure of diamond like carbon (DLC) film with surface nickel coating upon laser annealing by Xu, Naiyun, Tsang, Siu Hon, Tan, Chong Wei, Teo, Hang Tong, Wang, Xincai, Tay, Beng Kang

“…The Raman spectra shows more pronounced change for a-C films with Ni coating than those without Ni coating upon laser annealing, and the Raman features also suggest that the Ni surface coating can enhance formation of the six-ring graphitic-like sp2 ordering. Electrical measurement shows a low resistive characteristic for both set of films due to laser induced conducting sp2 clusters formation.…”
