Molecule-substrate interaction changes upon metal inclusion into a porphyrin

In free base TPP molecules the overlap of the phenyl orbitals with the substrate is enhanced through a temperature induced reaction, thus reducing the molecule–to–substrate distance. In the metalated (with Co) compound a strong bond establishes between Co and Ag states, leaving the porphyrin macrocycle to a larger distance from the surface with the phenyls rotated even after the annealing.

Porphyrin picking-up substrate metal atoms: metalation of 2H-TPP on Fe and Ni

2H-tetraphenyl-porphyrins metalate at room temperature by incorporating a surface metal atom when a (sub)monolayer is deposited on 3d magnetic substrates, like Fe(110) and Ni(111). This is a novel way to form, via chemical modification and supramolecular engineering, 3d metal-organic networks on magnetic substrates with an intimate bond between the macrocycle molecular metal ion and the substrate atoms.

Electronic Properties of patterned PEDOT:PSS

A new water-vapour-assisted nanoimprint lithography (NIL) process for the patterning and electronic property control of a conductive polymer (PEDOT:PSS) has been developed. This type of polymer is widely used for  a variety of organic based opto-electronics. Nano structuration of the PEDOT:PSS layer is of key importance for device miniaturization and performance. NIL process is a strong candidate for low cost high throughput technique for PEDOT:PSS nano structuration. Specifically the process was optimized with respect to relative humidity, applied pressure and temperature (RH, P, T).  A.Radivo et al. RSC Adv., 2014,4, 34014-34025

Gas sensitive single-walled carbon nanotubes layers for environmental monitoring of ammonia

Low-cost chemiresistor gas sensors (CGS) based on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) layers have been prepared on different substrates, including flexible plastic foils. These CGS operate in air at room temperature, displaying an enhanced sensitivity to NH₃ with a detection limit in air down to 3 ppb. When functionalized with ITO nanoparticles, a sensitivity increase is detected, along with an opposite response towards moisture. F.Rigoni et al. Analyst, 2013, 138, 7392-7399

Alkali Metal Doped Picene Layers: Insulating Phase in Multilayer Doped Compounds

We studied the electronic structure and the geometric arrangement of picene molecules adsorbed on Ag(111). Our data suggest that the films of K_xpicene are in an insulating phase. The observed molecular orientations are in disagreement with the crystal structure of the bulk material and may explain the presence of insulating states in strongly correlated doped picene multilayers.

Electronic structure of organic-inorganic perovskites

In the quest for new, cost-effective photovolatic materials, the organic-inorganic perovskite MAPbI₃ turned out to be an extremely efficient solar absorber. We analysed in detail the electronic structure of MAPbI₃-derived compounds and interfaces, finding a thier relative energy level alignments, possible paths for charge transfer and transport, and strategies to tune the doping level, and hence the charge transfer possibility between different compounds.

Metal to insulator transition in vanadium sesquioxide films

Fabrication of thin films gives the opportunity to study properties which are not easily accessible in bulk materials. V₂O₃ is a perfect example: studying the Fermi Surface of this material requires the preparation of an optimal surface and using thin films we show that the electronic structure of V₂O₃ is accessible by ARPES.  M. Caputo, et al. App. Surf. Science 574, 151608 (2022).
