Self-Assembled Surfactant-Polyoxovanadate Soft Materials as Tuneable Vanadium Oxide Cathode Precursors for Lithium-Ion Batteries (2023)
Journal Article
McNulty, R. C., Penston, K., Amin, S. S., Stal, S., Lee, J. Y., Samperi, M., …Newton, G. N. (2023). Self-Assembled Surfactant-Polyoxovanadate Soft Materials as Tuneable Vanadium Oxide Cathode Precursors for Lithium-Ion Batteries. Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 62(12), Article e202216066. https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.202216066

The mixing of [V10O28]6− decavanadate anions with a dicationic gemini surfactant (gem) leads to the spontaneous self-assembly of surfactant-templated nanostructured arrays of decavanadate clusters. Calcination of the material under air yields highly...

Enhancing singlet oxygen generation by self-assembly of a porphyrin entrapped in supramolecular fibres (2020)
Journal Article
Samperi, M., Limo, D., Amabilino, D. B., & Perez-Garc?a, L. (2020). Enhancing singlet oxygen generation by self-assembly of a porphyrin entrapped in supramolecular fibres. Cell Reports Physical Science, 1(3), https://doi.org/10.1016/jxcrp.2020.100030

Singlet oxygen (SO) is one of the reactive oxygen species that is effective in various uses, including performing chemical reactions, treating water impurities, and aiding in medicinal therapy. The generation of SO is often efficient in solution, alt... Read More about Enhancing singlet oxygen generation by self-assembly of a porphyrin entrapped in supramolecular fibres.

Quantification of energy of activation to supramolecular nanofibre formation reveals enthalpic and entropic effects and morphological consequence (2019)
Journal Article
Samperi, M., Perez-Garcia, L., & Amabilino, D. B. (2019). Quantification of energy of activation to supramolecular nanofibre formation reveals enthalpic and entropic effects and morphological consequence. Chemical Science, 2019(44), 10256-10266. https://doi.org/10.1039/c9sc03280k

We show a self-assembly process leading to fibres from a system that starts far from equilibrium because of fast solvent – anti-solvent mixing and analyse the activation energies associated with the aggregation. It is in some ways reminiscent of dive...

© 2019 World Scientific Publishing Company. The generation of singlet oxygen (SO), primarily by using a combination of light and photosensitizers in the presence of a dissolved gas, finds applications in both chemistry and medicine. The efficiency of... Read More about Singlet oxygen generation from porphyrin-functionalized hexahedral polysilicon microparticles.
