UiO-66 is a well-known metal organic framework that proved to be promising for various separation applications. In this report we study the molecular mobility and transport of n-butane and isobutane through the UiO-66. We show that n-butane…
The molecular mobility of propane and propylene has been studied by 2H NMR method. The activation barriers of diffusion determined from the spin relaxation analysis are in a good agreement with the values obtained by Liu et al. (EC3H8 = 38…
The properties of butane (C4H10) lubricants confined between two approaching solids are investigated by a model that accounts for the curvature and elastic properties of the solid surfaces. We consider the linear n-butane and the branched…
Our published and new experimental results by means of deuteron NMR spectroscopy in studies of molecular mobility in confinement are summarized and annalysed. Conclusions about limits of applicability of methods in disclosing several…
The zeolitic imidazole framework ZIF-71 has the potential to outperform other well-studied metal-organic frameworks due to its intrinsic hydrophobicity and large pore size. However, a detailed description of its complex physical phenomena…
Very recently, it was demonstrated that the carrier mobility of a molecular monolayer dioctylbenzothienobenzothiophene (C8-BTBT) on boron nitride can reach 10 cm2/Vs, the highest among the previously reported monolayer molecular…
Dynamic Monte Carlo simulations for the open coarse-grained model of MFI type zeolite were used to study the dynamics of adsorption and diffusion of n-butane in silicalite-1. We demonstrated the influence of the confinement of the structure…
We report a density-functional-theoretic study of the stability and electronic structure of two recently proposed borophene sheets with Pmmn symmetry and nonzero thickness. We then investigate nanoribbons (BNRs) derived from these…
We investigate the microscopic mechanism of the thermally induced ambient pressure ordered-disordered phase transitions of two zeolitic imidazolate frameworks of formula Zn(C$_3$H$_3$N$_2$)$_2$: a porous (ZIF-4) and a dense, non-porous…
We study the long-time self-diffusion of a single conjugated organic para-sexiphenyl (p-6P) molecule physisorbed on the inorganic ZnO $\left(10\overline{1}0\right)$ surface by means of all-atom molecular dynamics computer simulations. We…
Isotopic substitution modifies nuclear masses without altering the electronic potential energy surface to first order and is therefore often interpreted as a simple rescaling of vibrational frequencies. In solids with dense phonon…
Understanding water behaviour on 2D materials is crucial for sensing, microfluidics, and tribology. While water/graphene interactions are well studied, water on hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) remains largely unexplored. Despite structural…
The authors use ab initio molecular dynamics and the density functional theory+U (DFT+U) method to compute the hydration environment of the manganese ion in manganese (II) and manganese (III) porphines (MnP) dispersed in liquid water. These…
Understanding the dynamics of molecules adsorbed to surfaces or confined to small volumes is a matter of increasing scientific and technological importance. Here, we demonstrate a pulse protocol using individual paramagnetic nitrogen…
Mechanoluminescent materials have a wide range of promising nanotechnological applications, such as photonics based sensors and smart optoelectronics. Examples of mechanoluminescent metal-organic framework (MOF) materials, however, are…
We use computer simulations to study the kinetics and mechanism of proton passage through a narrow-pore carbon-nanotube membrane separating reservoirs of liquid water. Free energy and rate constant calculations show that protons move across…
Ab initio simulations are combined with in situ infrared spectroscopy to unveil the molecular transport of H$_2$, CO$_2$, and H$_2$O in the metal organic framework MOF-74-Mg. Our study uncovers---at the atomistic level---the major factors…
We study by scanning thermal microscopy the nanoscale thermal conductance of films (40 to 400 nm thick) of [1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophene (BTBT) and 2,7-dioctyl[1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophene (C8-BTBT-C8). We demonstrate that…
We present incoherent quasi-elastic neutron scattering measurements in a wavevector transfer range from 0.4 AA^{-1} to 1.6AA^{-1} on liquid n-hexane confined in cylindrical, parallel-aligned nanochannels of 6 nm mean diameter and 260…
Synthesizing new metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is a challenging task, as the size, morphology, polymorph and type and number of defects present on the synthesis product may depend on many variables, including temperature, solvent,…
