Modulation of Crystallinity and Optical Properties in Composite Materials Combining Iron Oxide Nanoparticles and Dye-Containing Covalent Organic Frameworks

Just accepted for publication: Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) from the Beuerle Group meet magnetic particles: Roberto Sanchez Naya, Vladimir Stepanenko, Karl Mandel, Florian Beuerle* Modulation of Crystallinity and Optical Properties in Composite Materials Combining Iron Oxide Nano...

Oxidative Precipitation as a Versatile Method to Obtain Ferromagnetic Fe3O4 Nano- and Mesocrystals Adjustable in Morphology and Magnetic Properties.

By using only simple chemicals along with carefully controlling synthesis parameters, a whole zoo of different magnetic iron oxide particle types can be obtained as demonstrated by Tim Granath et. al. in our work that was just accepted by Particle and Particle Systems Characterization, entitled Oxid...

A supraparticle-based five-level-identification tag that switches information

Everyone knows barcodes to store information and scratchcards to hide information. In our latest work, just accepted in Advanced Optical Materials, Franziska Miller et al. transfer these well-known principles to the supraparticle world to generate a supraparticle-based five-level-identification tag ...

AK Mandel thanks for student support in 2020

Welcome Huanhuan

We are happy to welcome Huanhuan Zhou, who has taken the long journey from China to support us in our scientific work as PhD student from now on. Her work will focus on the development of ID and recorder supraparticles. Welcome, Huanhuan.

An all white magnet by combination of electronic properties of a white light emitting MOF with strong magnetic particle systems

Magnetic materials are always black! Really? Not necessarily: together with the group of Klaus Müller-Buschbaum we demonstrate that it is possible to design an all white magnet, based on a complex supraparticle. Read about it in J. Mater. Chem. C where our article was just accepted (https://pubs.rsc...

Abrasion Indicators for Smart Surfaces Based on a Luminescence Turn‐On Effect in Supraparticles
