Questions related to Functional Materials
Hello everyone, I have an organic material functionalized with an inorganic material. When performing the FTIR analysis on the functionalized material, a kind of bands appeared in the infrared spectrum between 1000 and 500 cm-1 that were not previously found in the organic material. Could someone explain this to me?
What is the reason for the appearance of new interaction bands that were not previously found in the FTIR analysis? Thank you.

I have great interest in alloys specially steel and titanium alloys, electronic materials and functional properties of materials. In experimental part I have experience in alloy development and synthesis of functional materials.
Thank You
I have functionalized a material with an organic compound and performed different analyses such as TGA, XPS, elemental analysis (by EDS and varioMICRO) but I have a difficulty to determine the general formula. Is there any equation?
That's my full passion to develop my personal skills and knowledge to play well in the next generation industrial applications with utilizing my background by Functional Materials program and Materials Science in general.
Currently I am learning fundamentals in e-commerce and business to implement my own ideas in which I found that I can get an investment from Angel Investors. For this reason I would appreciate your offer and advice to gain more.
I’m working on a project where, I want to synthesize new kinds of ionic liquid of coordination compounds using electrodialytic ion transfer device which can be used for the solvent or electrode functionalizing material on electrochemical analysis. However, I do not have much idea and literature materials.
Also, what are the effects of counter ions in the preparation of these complexes?
I will be glad if you can be of any assistance most especially the methodology.
I am working on a natural polymer and functionalized it to block the UV rays. However, I don't know any quantitative or qualitative test to study the UV blocking efficiency of my functionalized material and comparing it with control.
Please suggest me any lab suitable test for this
Dear Authors,
I am pleased to invite you to submit a book chapter for upcoming book “Interfacial engineering in functional materials for dye-sensitized solar cells” which will be published in Wiley Publishers. If you are interested to participate in our publishing endeavour, please submit one page abstract of your chapter with title, authors name and their affiliation along with the contributing authors biodata on or before by 3rd October 2018 to pandikumaran@gmail.com
The deadline for the submission of complete book chapter is 20 December 2018. The length of book chapter should have 25 - 35 page length having maximum 8-12 figures, tables and illustrations all together, if any. The entire book chapter will be published after peer-review.
the modulation depth reported by Bao Q, Zhang H, Wang Y, et al. Atomic‐layer graphene as a saturable absorber for ultrafast pulsed lasers[J]. Advanced Functional Materials, 2009, 19(19): 3077-3083. is 66%,but we know the absorption of monolayer is 2.3%,how could the modulation depth raise to ~66%?
I have a new idea toward molecular electronics
What polymer glues with heat resistance above 600 ° C are known to you? What is their composition? For bonding which substrates, these adhesives are applied? What about their durability? I would be grateful for the bibliographic references as well as links to research groups and to potential manufacturers of these functional materials.
I need stable low work function materials (lower than 1eV) which is suitable for MEMS process.
Do you know that kind of materials? or Do you know materials which make work function lower?
If you know, please tell me.
I would like to know if there is any paper where the Pauli potencial is represented only in terms of \nabla ^2\rho(\ vec r).
I use spectroscopic ellipsometry to determine the film thickness and refractive index of oxide thin films on silicon with VASE software from JA Woollam. The thing is i am not able to extract the dielectric function of the material film layer although the software gives combined pseudodielectric function of all the layers.
The porous metal organic framework material is very popular as an innovative functional material. The flexible tetra-carboxylic acid is one type of chelate ligand, barely used to construct metal-organic framework. The rigid di-carboxylic acid is one type of efficient ligand to construct transition metal-organic framework. However, both of the two acids are unable to meet the high coordination demand of rare earth, therefore, it is very difficult to construct a stable porous framework by using the two type of ligands alone. By using flexible tetra-carboxylic acid and rigid di-carboxylic acid, will some new porous and stable MOFs be prepared? Thank you for your review on this project.

Multinuclear solid-state NMR is an especially powerful tool to study the structural information of functional materials.
In my lab, I have a Bruker 600MHz NMR. If anyone has a good idea and wants to study materials by solid-state NMR, I can provide measurement, and also I want to collaborate with you.
- In Field Emission measurement Eturn ON (threshold voltage), Jmax (maximum current density) and Beta (field enhancement factor) are main important parameter......What is more important?
- Where Beta is directly dependent on surface morphology but some scholars calculating it with the help of work function of the material ..... What is most appropriate method to calculate Beta?
In electrochemistry, electrolysis for instance, Nernst equation gives the final point of the process. It is determined by the Galvanic potentials of the inactive electorde and the templating metal, temperature, and the activity of the solution/electrolyte. If the inert electrode is semiconductive (i.e. transition metal oxide), I am wondering whether the Galvanic potential is marked by the work function of the material, or whether there is any relationships between the two properties of the material.
Carbon fibre based composites show various advantages (light weight, less prone to corrosion, etc..) over Steel and other structural materials. For example Carbon fibre composites are already being used in cars and aerospace industries, do you think they can be used in buildings, bridges, etc...
I have a background in ferroelectric materials and their structural characterization. However, I have very little idea on incommensurate structures ferromagnetic material etc... I have been reading up on magnetoelectric materials and I do not understand what violation of space-time parity means and how it is necessary for magnetoelectric effect to occur. Any answers or suggestions at an elementary level would be very helpful.
I have been reading many papers on multiferroics but I didn't find any discussing electric or magnetic field induce phase transitions in material. Almost all papers charecterize the material on the basis of Tc or Tn.
Apart from electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), what are the other techniques that can give light elements (such as Lithium) distribution profile (2D Mapping) with high resolution?
