Multimodal and Multiscale Interrogation of a Mechanically Tough Glass Forming Copper-Based Metal-Organic Framework
Mounir El Skafi, Guo-Qiang Li, Sophie R. Thomas +8
A copper-based metal-organic framework, Cu(Im)2, was synthesized using a sol-gel process and subsequently melt-quenched into glass upon heating above 240 °C. In this paper, we pres…
Full frame denoising for pyramid wavefront sensors
Noah Schwartz, Samuel Pinilla, Charlotte Z. Bond +3
Adaptive optics systems operating under low-flux conditions face significant challenges, as photon and detector noise in particular degrade wavefront measurements and ultimately li…
Fossil and present-day stromatolite ooids contain a meteoritic polymer of glycine and iron
Julie E M McGeoch, Anton J Frommelt, Robin L Owen +4
Hemoglycin, a space polymer of glycine and iron, has been identified in the carbonaceous chondritic meteorites Allende, Acfer 086, Kaba, Sutters Mill and Orgueil. Its core form has…
Synchrotron-based near-field photothermal microspectroscopy: Development of a quantitative nanohistology set-up with expansion of the infrared capability 2
L Bozec, G Cinque, M Reading +1
The purpose was two-fold: To explore the capability of the Diamond Synchrotron infra-red so as to include near-field photothermal microspectroscopy (PTMS); and Toward a quantitativ…
Impact of pressure and temperature on the broadband dielectric response of the HKUST-1 metal-organic framework
Arun S. Babal, Lorenzo Donà, Matthew R. Ryder +8
Herein we employed high-resolution spectroscopic techniques in combination with periodic ab initio density functional theory (DFT) calculations to establish the different polarizat…
Dielectric Properties of Metal-Organic Frameworks Probed via Synchrotron Infrared Reflectivity
Matthew R. Ryder, Zhixin Zeng, Yueting Sun +9
We present the frequency-dependant (dynamic) dielectric response of a group of topical polycrystalline zeolitic imidazolate-based metal-organic framework (MOF) materials in the ext…
Optimization and Testing of a novel Photoacoustic Spectromicroscopy Cell in the Mid-IR Spectrum
Kirk Michaelian, Chris Kelley, Tor Pedersen +4
We have designed, constructed and optimized a novel cell for micro photoacoustic (microPA) spectroscopy (microPAS) as part of a collaboration between the Canadian Light Source and…
Detecting Molecular Rotational Dynamics Complementing the Low-Frequency Terahertz Vibrations in a Zirconium-Based Metal-Organic Framework
Matthew R. Ryder, Ben Van de Voorde, Bartolomeo Civalleri +7
We show clear experimental evidence of co-operative terahertz (THz) dynamics observed below 3 THz (~100 cm-1), for a low-symmetry Zr-based metal-organic framework (MOF) structure,…
Tracking Thermal-Induced Amorphization of a Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework via Synchrotron In Situ Far-Infrared Spectroscopy
Matthew R. Ryder, Thomas D. Bennett, Chris S. Kelley +3
We present the first use of in situ far-infrared spectroscopy to analyze the thermal amorphization of a zeolitic imidazolate framework material. We explain the nature of vibrationa…
FTIR spectral imaging as a probe of ultrasound effect on cells in vitro
L. Di Giambattista, P. Grimaldi, I. Udroiu +5
Safe and efficient intracellular delivery of genes or drugs is critically important in targeted cancer treatment and gene therapy applications. Ultrasound (US) has been demonstrate…
