Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Irradiation of thin films of poly(ferrocenylmethylphenylsilane) ([Fe( η 5 ‐C 5 H 4 ) 2 SiMePh] n ) cast from chloroform solution with UV light leads to photooxidation of ferrocene centers in the polymer main chain. The extent of the polymer oxidation can be controlled in the range ca. 0–5% by the duration of the irradiation exposure and by the concentration of chloroform. The photooxidized polyferrocenylsilane material is conductive, with an increased conductivity of greater than three orders of magnitude relative to the unoxidized material. In addition, the photooxidized polymers have been found to be photoconductive. The photooxidation process can be reversed by means of chemical reduction using hydrazine or decamethylferrocene, leading to the regeneration of the neutral polymers. However, substantial molecular weight decline was detected during the photooxidation/reduction process, presumably as a result of chain cleavage reactions induced by the anionic or radical chlorinated photoproducts. Methylation of the cyclopentadienyl rings of the ferrocene moiety in the polymer was found to lead to materials which are significantly more stable. Time trace of the current at constant applied voltage of 100 V for a PFS film upon illumination. The ON and OFF states were created by using a mechanical shutter. magnified image Time trace of the current at constant applied voltage of 100 V for a PFS film upon illumination.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
