@Hunter27228944 Yup, 100 % filled to the brim.

@ElllieBeans If we google you, apparently, you are getting a Master's in Egyptian history...

[Blake @StChem912]

@monoopti @ElllieBeans LOL, I totally didn't realize that the pot boy has a sassy look to him until you mentioned it.

[Blake @StChem912]

@ElllieBeans Damn this drip looks super familiar......

@michocheje It was me... DIO!

@PlayApex Think I discovered some laziness... or a really good fake-out / rat spot? There is actually a giant triangular piece of one sided textured floor there...

@michocheje @Mark_P_Walsh I'm telling you man.... strange tings happen...

365 days later we have made it! Survived a pandemic, avoided COVID-19 like the plague, and playing Apex Legends together finally! Here is to many more days in the future bean!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😘😘😘😘 @michailahazael https://t.co/QNQCuBPP0z

365 days later, finally able to play Apex Legends together, surviving a pandemic and way much more amazing stuff to come in the future!!!!! ❤❤❤😘 @michailahazael https://t.co/hOL68mtHqq

Newest edition to the crew! Thought I would treat myself to a new stick! https://t.co/qa7x67QcJ3

@marcuswdrover @CIC_ChemInst @DaltonTrans @cscinorgdiv @degruyter_phys Our current ongoing work is utilizing various transition metal sources and their effects on electronic and mechanical properties, as well as investigating self-assembly on the monomer level. We however have not looked into any M(PR3)3(S)3 compounds.

Hey everyone, check out my #GIDW2020 poster!

P145 - Optimizing Semiconducting Materials Through Metal-Ligand Interactions

Looking forward to all comments and questions!

Thanks to @CIC_ChemInst , @DaltonTrans , @cscinorgdiv , @degruyter_phys

@marcuswdrover @CIC_ChemInst @DaltonTrans @cscinorgdiv @degruyter_phys For % Metal incorporation there are a multitude of ways, however the easiest would be to analyze the XFS and calculate it based on the PMMA-Fe Standard and P(DPPTVTMeBzimpy)-Fe sample.

[Blake @StChem912]

@christine_m_le @CIC_ChemInst @DaltonTrans @cscinorgdiv @degruyter_phys The goal was to use a metal source which was cheap and readily available. The BZIMPY class pincer ligands also show to have a good coordination affinity towards Fe and Zn. It is a robust ligand, that can complex transition metals and main group elements / metals.

@luppi_bruno @CIC_ChemInst @DaltonTrans @cscinorgdiv @degruyter_phys The second part, the alkyl spacer allows for fluorescence quenching to not be as severe. Looking at the UV-VIS of the monomers, it does occur significantly, however does not fully quench. We also see remission of fluorescence past 1.27 equivalents of Fe salt added.

[Blake @StChem912]

@luppi_bruno @CIC_ChemInst @DaltonTrans @cscinorgdiv @degruyter_phys Ah yes good questions. So currently we have noticed that the metal complexes allow for the long alkyl chains to align themselves through facilitating the Fe center which ultimately increases coherence of the system.

@cayls94 And you did exceptionally well !!

[Blake @StChem912]

Crazy how time flies... already half a year and 3/4 through a hockey season ☺. Glad you always come and watch @cayls94 ! https://t.co/Ybs3v1tx9E

[Blake @StChem912]

Another late night weekend hockey session with the group. Also clearly brought a fan 😋 @ Forest Glade Arena https://t.co/0hE2rIoRN0

[Blake @StChem912]

After a day of chemistry brought another night of hockey... with a secret admirer to boot 😋 @cayls94 ... also wearing my periodic table of hockey terms shirt today too 😂 https://t.co/93LfzlrDSz
