TL;DR: This study examines Co- and Ni-based catalysts made from the actual industrial precursor materials, catalysts that are notoriously problematic regarding their characterization and provides the leading hypothesis going forward to try to refute in future work, namely, that sub-M(≥4) to larger, M(n) Ziegler nanoclusters are the dominant, industrial, Co-and Ni- plus AlR(3) catalysts in Zieglers-type hydrogenation systems.

TL;DR: In this article, a type of quasi-three-dimensional plasmonic crystal was used for spatially resolved detection of biochemical binding events, with a spatial resolution of tens of microns and submonolayer binding sensitivity.

TL;DR: The second of a series of workshops planned in this topical area was held at NSF headquarters in Arlington, Virginia, in January 1998, and was designed to address the core of the field, describing how it has developed in the US and worldwide in the past decade, and how the members of the community saw the central thrusts of research and education in solid state chemistry proceeding in the next several years as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: A novel soft-lithographic technique possessing broad utility for the fabrication of large area, nanoscale multilayer resist structures on electronic material substrates by transferring ultrathin poly(dimethylsiloxane) decals to an underlying SiO(2)-capped organic planarazation layer.

TL;DR: The main findings herein are that a combination of the catalyst precursors [(1,5-COD)Ir(mu-O(2)C(8)H(15))](2) and AlEt(3) gives catalytically active solutions containing a broad distribution of Ir(n) species, suggesting that the observed changes in catalytic activity at different Al/Ir ratios are primarily the result of changes in the form or function of the Al-derived component.
