Ab initio calculations suggest that a series of complexes of the [Pt3(μ-CO)3(PH3)3]-MPH3+ type (M = Cu, Au, Ag) are stable. We have studied these complexes at the HF, MP2, B3LYP, and PBE levels of theory. The magnitude of ...

Ab initio calculations suggest that a series of complexes of type [Pt(PH3)3-MPH3]+ (M = Au, Ag, Cu) are stable. We found that changes around the equilibrium distance Pt-M and in the interaction energies are sensitive to ...

This paper reports the advantages of using a melanin-type polymer to improve the selectivity of glucose biosensors based on carbon paste electrodes containing Pt and glucose oxidase (GOx). The resulting bioelectrodes combine ...

Electrocatalysis is a special field in Electrochemistry that hasgained a special growth after the late eighties due to theapplication of new hybrid techniques. However, most of theapplications have run for academic purposes ...

The interaction between the [Pt3(μ-L)3(L') 3] cluster (L = CO, SO2, CNH; L' = PH3, CNH) and a series of fragments X (Tl+, Hg(0), AuPH3+, CuPH 3+ and AgPH3+) was studied using ab initio methodology. The calculations suggest ...
