Graphene oxide (GO) was prepared by modified Hummer's method to produce reduced graphene oxide (RGO) following standard thermal and chemical reduction processes. Prepared RGO colloids were utilized to fabricate RGO films over glass and FTO coated glass substrates through drop-coating. A systematic study was performed to evaluate the effect of reduction degree on the optical and electrical properties of the RGO film. We demonstrate that both the reduction process (thermal and chemical) produce RGO films of similar optical and electrical behaviors. However, the RGO films fabricated using chemically reduced GO colloid render better performance in dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), when they are used as counter electrodes (CEs). It has been demonstrated that RGO films of optimum thicknesses fabricated using RGO colloids prepared using lower concentration of hydrazine reducer have better catalytic performance in DSSCs due to a better catalytic interaction with redox couple. The better catalytic performance of the RGO films fabricated at optimal hydrazine concentration is associated to their higher available surface area and lower grain boundaries.

We report on the non-volatile memory characteristics of a bistable organic memory (BOM) device with Au nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in a conducting poly N-vinylcarbazole (PVK) colloids hybrid layer deposited on flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images show the Au nanoparticles distributed isotropically around the surface of a PVK colloid. The average induced charge on Au nanoparticles, estimated using the C-V hysteresis curve, was large, as much as 5 holes/NP at a sweeping voltage of ${\pm}3$ V. The maximum ON/OFF ratio of the current bistability in the BOM devices was as large as $1{\times}105$. The cycling endurance tests of the ON/OFF switching exhibited a high endurance of above $1.5{\times}105$ cycles and a high ON/OFF ratio of ~105 could be achieved consistently even after quite a long retention time of more than $1{\times}106$ s.

Molecular weight distributions of poly(vinyl neo-decanoate) produced by the bulk polymerization of the monomer to low conversions were investigated to obtain values of the rate constants for the chain transfer to monomer ( $C_{M}$). The value of $C_{M}$ of 7.5($\pm$0.6)${\times}$10$^{-4}$ was obtained from a logarithmic plot of the number distribution at 5,25, and 5$0^{\circ}C$, which suggests that the activation energy for chain transfer is on the order of 20-25 kJ ㏖$^{-1}$ . These plots were linear between the number and weight-average degrees of polymerization, but not over the whole molecular weight range for which a significant signal was observed in the gel permeation chromatography (GPC) trace. Modeling suggests that the deviations observed at high molecular weights can be explained by branching of the chains through chain transfer to the polymer, with a branching density as low as 10$^{-5}$ , without affecting the slope at low values of the number of monomer unit, N. This deviation from the expected distribution of linear chains was used to estimate the branching densities at low conversion.ion.

Chiral separation of arylalcohols such as 1-phenyl-1-propanol, 1-phenyl-2-propanol, and 2-phenyl-1-propanol by capillary electrophoresis was studied using sulfonated $\beta$-cyclodextrin (CD) as a chiral selector and Ag colloids as an additive. The optimum separation condition of arylalcohols was found to be the chiral selector concentration of 6.5 mM, applied voltage of 15 kV, and pH of 7.0. In order to improve chiral separation, an Ag colloid was mixed with a running buffer. The resolution in the Ag colloid-mixed running buffer was considerably superior to that obtained with the sulfonated $\beta$-CD alone. The molar ratio of sulfonated $\beta$-CD to Ag colloid, which is one of critical parameters affecting resolution, was found to be optimum at 65 : 1. In order to elucidate the resolution mechanism, an inclusion-complex of the arylalcohols with sulfonated $\beta$-CD was prepared by mixing and shaking in solution, and then characterized by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The inclusion mechanism was also discussed using experimental results.
