All-in-One Step from a Radical Monomer: Vacuum Synthesis of Electroswitchable Radical Polymer Thin Films by Solvent-Free Surface Polymerization

Deepa Singh, Jae‐Woo Park, François Magnan, Paul Bazylewski et autres

Polyradicals─radical polymers with open-shell structures─are unique one-dimensional quantum materials that can be envisaged as spin chains with one radical ( i.e., one unpaired electron) per repeating unit. Due to their unique electronic structure, polyradicals with electroswitchable charge states find uses in lightweight …

A divergent strategy for the synthesis of redox-active verdazyl radical polymers

François Magnan, Jasveer S. Dhindsa, Michael Anghel, Paul Bazylewski et autres

We describe a divergent synthetic strategy based on ATRP and CuAAC chemistry for the production of stable radical polymers. As a proof of concept, we prepare verdazyl radical polymers with properties suitable for use in organic electronics.

Intrinsic Enzyme-like Activities of Cerium Oxide Nanocomposite and Its Application for Extracellular H2O2 Detection Using an Electrochemical Microfluidic Device

Negar Alizadeh, Abdollah Salimi, Tsun‐Kong Sham, Paul Bazylewski et autres

Abstract Artificial enzyme mimics have gained considerable attention for use in sensing applications due to their high stability and outstanding catalytic activity. We show that cerium oxide nanosheets (NSs) exhibit triple-enzyme mimetic activity. The oxidase-, peroxidase-, and catalase-like activities of the proposed …

Solid-State Chemiresistors from Two-Dimensional MoS2 Nanosheets Functionalized with l -Cysteine for In-Line Sensing of Part-Per-Billion Cd2+ Ions in Drinking Water

Paul Bazylewski, Sheldon Van Middelkoop, Ranjith Divigalpitiya, Giovanni Fanchini

Abstract Sensing of metal contaminants at ultralow concentrations in aqueous environments is vital in today’s overpopulated world, with an extremely stringent limit (<5 ppb) for Cd2+ ions in drinking water. Here, we utilize sonochemically exfoliated molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheets functionalized with l-cysteine …

Thermal conductivity of thin film-substrate systems from two-side scanning photothermal deflection measurements: Theoretical model and validation

Sina Kazemian, Paul Bazylewski, Reg Bauld, Giovanni Fanchini

Photothermal deflection (PTD) has been frequently utilized to measure the thermal properties of thin solid films on a substrate. In the models commonly used to interpret PTD data, the substrate is assumed to be an ideal thermal insulator. This assumption poses important …

On the role of different paramagnetic centers in conducting nickel oxide thin films

Angela Ebere Ezugwu, Victor Wong, Paul Bazylewski, Giovanni Fanchini

Transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) are extensively investigated because of their applications as transparent electrodes in solar cells and light-emitting devices. TCOs of interest include indium-tin oxide, aluminum-doped zinc oxide, nickel oxide (NiO), and their combinations. There is strong interest in NiO because …

A Review of Three-Dimensional Scanning Near-Field Optical Microscopy (3D-SNOM) and Its Applications in Nanoscale Light Management

Paul Bazylewski, Sabastine Ezugwu, Giovanni Fanchini

In this article, we present an overview of aperture and apertureless type scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM) techniques that have been developed, with a focus on three-dimensional (3D) SNOM methods. 3D SNOM has been undertaken to image the local distribution (within ~100 …
