Sci Rep. 2017 Mar 07;7:43302. doi: 10.1038/srep43302.

Recording processes and events that occur on sub-nanosecond timescales poses a difficult challenge. Conventional ultrafast imaging techniques often rely on long data collection times, which can be due to limited device sensitivity and/or the requirement of scanning the detection...

N-Heterocyclic Carbene-Mediated Oxidative Electrosynthesis of Esters in a Microflow Cell.

Organic letters

Green RA, Pletcher D, Leach SG, Brown RC.
PMID: 26073623
Org Lett. 2015 Jul 02;17(13):3290-3. doi: 10.1021/acs.orglett.5b01459. Epub 2015 Jun 15.

An efficient N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-mediated oxidative esterification of aldehydes has been achieved in an undivided microfluidic electrolysis cell at ambient temperature. Productivities of up to 4.3 g h(-1) in a single pass are demonstrated, with excellent yields and conversions...

Acta Crystallogr E Crystallogr Commun. 2015 Apr 22;71:523-7. doi: 10.1107/S2056989015006994. eCollection 2015 May 01.

The title compounds, C20H16ClO2P, (I), and C18H21O2P, (II), were synthesized via an Arbuzov reaction between an α-bromo-ketone and isopropoxydi-phenyl-phosphane. In the crystals of both compounds, mol-ecules are linked via bifurcated C-H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bonds, forming chains propagating along [100] for...

Using the nonseparability of vector beams to encode information for optical communication.

Optics letters

Milione G, Nguyen TA, Leach J, Nolan DA, Alfano RR.
PMID: 26512475
Opt Lett. 2015 Nov 01;40(21):4887-90. doi: 10.1364/OL.40.004887.

In this work, it is experimentally demonstrated that the nonseparability of vector beams (e.g., radial and azimuthal polarization) can be used to encode information for optical communication. By exploiting the nonseparability of a vector beam's space and polarization degrees...
