Real‐Time Investigation of Interfacial Evolution in Electrochemical Energy Storage Systems via EQCM

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 46, 17 August 2026.
Understanding the electrode/electrolyte interface (EEI) is crucial for supercapacitors and batteries. EQCM, by enabling real‐time monitoring of mass changes during charge–discharge cycles, has evolved into a vital method for analysis of EEI. It provides important insights into charge‐storage mechanisms, electrode structural evolution, ion‐transfer ...

Molecular-resolution imaging of pentacene on KCl(001)

Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2012
The growth of pentacene on KCl(001) at submonolayer coverage was studied by dynamic scanning force microscopy. At coverages below one monolayer pentacene was found to arrange in islands with an upright configuration.

Stabilization of Acenes: “Geländer”‐Pentacenes

Angewandte Chemie International Edition
AbstractWe report soluble tetrakis‐biphenylyl substituted pentacenes comprised of sp2 carbons and synthesized from pentacene‐5,7,12,14‐tetraone. Intramolecular Yamamoto coupling of two tetrakis(chlorobiphenylyl)pentacenes yields helical, doubly wrapped pentacenes, in which the quaterphenylene units solubilize the pentacenes and shield their central ...
