Atomistic MD simulations of anhydrous surfactant-coated protein liquids reveal their intermolecular structure. Inter-surfactant interactions stabilize the liquid state. Dynamics of trace amounts of water offer clues on enhancing the activity.

Hydrogen bonding OH···O geometries in the liquid state of linear alcohols, derived from ab initio MD simulations, show no change from methanol to pentanol, in contrast to that observed in their crystalline state.

We report herein the synthesis of siloxane-functionalized CBP molecules (4,4’-bis(carbazole)-1,1′-biphenyl) for liquid optoelectronic applications. The room-temperature liquid state is obtained through a convenient functionalization of the molecules with heptamethyltrisiloxane chains via hydrosilylation of alkenyl spacers. The synthesis comprises screening of metal-catalyzed methodologies to introduce alkenyl linkers into carbazoles (Stille and Suzuki Miyaura cross-couplings), incorporate the alkenylcarbazoles to dihalobiphenyls (Ullmann coupling), and finally introduce the siloxane chains. The used conditions allowed the synthesis of the target compounds, despite the high reactivity of the alkenyl moieties bound to π-conjugated systems toward undesired side reactions such as polymerization, isomerization, and hydrogenation. The features of these solvent-free liquid CBP derivatives make them potentially interesting for fluidic optoelectronic applications.

AbstractAn in-situ electron diffraction structure analysis of La55Al25Ni20in the supercooled liquid temperature range (ΔTx) revealed a gradual structural change with a local phase separation due to strong atomic correlations especially of La-La and Al-Ni. On the basis of the structural data, structure models corresponding to the structures at temperatures between Tg and Tx were constructed using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation technique. These constructed structure models were then utilized for MD simulations to understand plastic deformation in the supercooled liquid state under a constant strain-rate. A larger elongation was obtained for the structure in the middle of the ΔTx range, but for the structure near Tx the elongation was relatively smaller which was supposed to be due to the local phase separation. These simulation results correspond well to the experimental elongation behaviors in the superplastic deformation that the elongation is enhanced in the middle of ΔTx but suppressed as the temperature is increased towards Tx.
