   Abstract : The behavioral immune system (BIS) automatically activates certain cognitions, emotions and behaviors in the presence of potentially harmful pathogens. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic it is important to study reactions evoked by the BIS, to see if such reactions are related to a decreased or increased risk of the spread of pathogens, as well as if they are related to some external factors.

6. 15. Influence of The Heavy Atom Effect on The Cage Escape Yields of Iron(III)-Photosensitizers with N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Fysikalisk kemi

   Author : Johannes Wega; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The recent emergence of earth-abundant iron(III)-photosensitizers with N-heterocyclic carbene ligands, exhibiting nanosecond ligand-to-metal charge-transfer states with suitable redox potentials to activate a broad range of substances, offers the possibility to convert sunlight into chemical substances, such as fuels or pharmaceuticals, in an environmentally friendly way. These complexes, however, often suffer from low yields of charge-separated products escaping the solvent cage, making such applications inherently inefficient. READ MORE
