Chemical Vapor Deposition of Tin Sulfide from Diorganotin(IV) Dixanthates (2018)
Journal Article
Al-Shakban, M., Matthews, P., Lewis, E., O'Brien, P., Haigh, S., Lewis, D., …Vitorica-Yrezabal, I. (2018). Chemical Vapor Deposition of Tin Sulfide from Diorganotin(IV) Dixanthates. Journal of Materials Science, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10853-018-2968-y

We report the synthesis and single-crystal X-ray characterization of diphenyltin bis(2-methoxyethylxanthate) and diphenyltin bis(iso-butylxanthate). These xanthates have been used as a single-source precursor to deposit tin chalcogenide thin films by... Read More about Chemical Vapor Deposition of Tin Sulfide from Diorganotin(IV) Dixanthates.

Exploiting Inherent Instability of 2D Black Phosphorus for Controlled Phosphate Release from Blow-Spun Poly (lactide-co-glycolide) Nanofibers (2018)
Journal Article
Kamyar, N., Greenhalgh, R., Nascimento, T., Medeiros, E., Matthews, P., Nogueira, L., …Blaker, J. (2018). Exploiting Inherent Instability of 2D Black Phosphorus for Controlled Phosphate Release from Blow-Spun Poly (lactide-co-glycolide) Nanofibers. ACS Applied Nano Material, https://doi.org/10.1021/acsanm.8b00938

Efforts have been made to stabilize black phosphorus (BP) to utilize its tunable band gap and anisotropic mechanical properties. Here, the intrinsic instability of BP is exploited for controlled therapeutic ion release, namely phosphate. BP was incor...

Energy transfer and photoluminescence properties of lanthanide-containing polyoxotitanate cages coordinated by salicylate ligands (2018)
Journal Article
Li, N., Wright, D., Reisner, E., Luo, H., Matthews, P., Xiao, J., …Rosser, T. (2018). Energy transfer and photoluminescence properties of lanthanide-containing polyoxotitanate cages coordinated by salicylate ligands. Dalton Transactions, 5679-5686. https://doi.org/10.1039/C8DT00825F

Polyoxotitanate (POT) cages have attracted considerable attention recently; much of this from the fact that they can be considered to be structural models for the technologically important semiconductor TiO2. Among the reported POT cages, lanthanide-... Read More about Energy transfer and photoluminescence properties of lanthanide-containing polyoxotitanate cages coordinated by salicylate ligands.

On the Phase Control of CuInS2 Nanoparticles from Cu-/In-Xanthates (2018)
Journal Article
Matthews, P., Zhong, X., Vitorica-Yrzebal, I., Al-Shakban, M., Raftery, J., Lewis, D., & O'Brien, P. (2018). On the Phase Control of CuInS2 Nanoparticles from Cu-/In-Xanthates. Dalton Transactions, 5304-5309. https://doi.org/10.1039/C8DT00653A

In this paper we report the synthesis and single-crystal X-ray characterisation of six novel indium(III) xanthate complexes. These xanthates have been used as an In-source for the synthesis of highly crystalline CuInS2 nanoparticles in conjunction wi...

Black phosphorus with near-superhydrophobic properties and long-term stability in aqueous media. (2018)
Journal Article
Lewis, D., O'Brien, P., Bissett, M., Haigh, S., Dryfe, R., Derby, B., …Zeng, N. (2018). Black phosphorus with near-superhydrophobic properties and long-term stability in aqueous media. Chemical Communications, 3831-3834. https://doi.org/10.1039/C8CC01789A

Black phosphorus is a two-dimensional material that has potential applications in energy storage, high frequency electronics and sensing, yet it suffers from instability in oxygenated and/or aqueous systems. Here we present the use of a polymeric sta... Read More about Black phosphorus with near-superhydrophobic properties and long-term stability in aqueous media..
