Unveiling the role of upper excited electronic states in the photochemistry and laser performance of anti-B18H22
How understanding excited-state photochemistry and photophysics of anti-B18H22 can explain its laser characteristics
A Reversible NO-Triggered Multiple Metallaborane Cluster Fusion
Our latest HUGE metal-borane cluster…in fact 4 clusters fused to generate this octaplatinum beast of a molecule. The eight platinum centres condense in a geometry similar to the Hercules constellation. Simply stellar chemistry!
Swollen Polyhedral Volume of the anti-B18H22 Cluster via Extensive Methylation: anti-B18H8Cl2Me12
Attaching methyl groups to the periphery of anti-B18H22 causes the 18-vertex borane cluster to literally swell!
Macropolyhedral Nickelaboranes from the Metal-Assisted Fusion of KB9H14
New synthetic ways to make big borane molecules
Effect of Iodination on the Photophysics of the Laser Borane anti-B18H22: Generation of Efficient Photosensitizers of Oxygen
new highly phosphorescent species that efficiently generate singlet-oxygen
A theoretical analysis of the structure and properties of B26H30 isomers. Consequences to the laser and semiconductor doping capabilities of large borane clusters
Fusion of three {B10}-type clusters provide delocalised MO with positive consequences on photophysical molecular properties.
The Interaction of anti-B18H22 with Light
Our contribution to the Handbook of Boron Science
Distinct Photophysics of the Isomers of B18H22 Explained
