Sougata Sinha; Rik Rani Koner; Sunil Kumar; Jomon Mathew; P V Monisha; Imran Kazi; Subrata Ghosh

A benzophenone-based Schiff base 1 has been utilized as a fluorescence chemosensor for the selective detection of Al3+. The probe was synthesized in one step, and found to be non-fluorescent due to a combination of photoinduced electron transfer (PET), excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) and E/Z isomerism. Upon addition of Al3+ to a methanolic solution of 1, the development of a strong fluorescence signal was observed with an attractive glowing green emission. This was due to the inhibition of PET, ESIPT and E/Z isomerism, and the activation of chelation enhanced fluorescence (CHEF). The quantum yield of 1–Al3+ was found to be 0.17. The selectivity was tested with 24 different metal and non-metal ions, and established using various spectroscopic tools. The strong affinity of compound 1 for Al3+ was also proven by 1H NMR and mass spectroscopy.

Live visualizations of single isolated tubulin protein self-assembly via tunneling current: effect of electromagnetic pumping during spontaneous growth of microtubule

Satyajit Sahu; Subrata Ghosh; Daisuke Fujita; Anirban Bandyopadhyay

As we bring tubulin protein molecules one by one into the vicinity, they self-assemble and entire event we capture live via quantum tunneling. We observe how these molecules form a linear chain and then chains self-assemble into 2D sheet, an essential for microtubule, —fundamental nano-tube in a cellular life form. Even without using GTP, or any chemical reaction, but applying particular ac signal using specially designed antenna around atomic sharp tip we could carry out the self-assembly, however, if there is no electromagnetic pumping, no self-assembly is observed. In order to verify this atomic scale observation, we have built an artificial cell-like environment with nano-scale engineering and repeated spontaneous growth of tubulin protein to its complex with and without electromagnetic signal. We used 64 combinations of plant, animal and fungi tubulins and several doping molecules used as drug, and repeatedly observed that the long reported common frequency region where protein folds mechanically and its structures vibrate electromagnetically. Under pumping, the growth process exhibits a unique organized behavior unprecedented otherwise. Thus, “common frequency point” is proposed as a tool to regulate protein complex related diseases in the future.

Sougata Sinha; Trinetra Mukherjee; Jomon Mathew; Subhra Kanti Mukhopadhyay; Subrata Ghosh

Fluorescence bioimaging potential, both in vitro and in vivo, of a yellow emissive triazole-based molecular marker has been investigated and demonstrated. Three different kinds of cells, viz Bacillus thuringiensis, Candida albicans, and Techoma stans pollen grains were used to investigate the intracellular zinc imaging potential of 1 (in vitro studies). Fluorescence imaging of translocation of zinc through the stem of small herb, Peperomia pellucida, having transparent stem proved in vivo bioimaging capability of 1. This approach will enable in screening cell permeability and biostability of a newly developed probe. Similarly, the current method for detection and localization of zinc in Gram seed sprouts could be an easy and potential alternative of the existing analytical methods to investigate the efficiency of various strategies applied for increasing zinc-content in cereal crops. The probe-zinc ensemble has efficiently been applied for detecting phosphate-based biomolecules.

V. S. V. Satyanarayana; Felipe Kessler; Vikram Singh; Francine Ramos Scheffer; Daniel Eduardo Weibel; Subrata Ghosh; Kenneth E. Gonsalves

Polymerization of (4-(methacryloyloxy)phenyl)dimethylsulfoniumtriflate (MAPDST), as a key monomer containing the radiation sensitive sulfonium functionality, with various other monomers such as methyl methacrylate (MMA), 4-carboxy styrene (STYCOOH), N-vinyl carbazole (NVK) in different molar ratios via free-radical polymerization method is described. This methodology led to the development of a small chemical library of six different radiation sensitive polymers for lithography applications. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy identified the reaction products as MAPDST homopolymer and MAPDST-MMA, MAPDST-STYCOOH, MAPDST-NVK copolymers. Molecular weights were obtained from gel permeation chromatography and the decomposition temperature (Td) values were determined using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The effect of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) irradiation on a thin poly(MAPDST) film was investigated using monochromatic synchrotron excitation. These new polymeric materials were also exposed to electron-beam lithography (EBL) and extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) to achieve 20-nm line patterns.

Simple molecular structures capable of emitting over the entire visible range are still a challenge. Planar molecular structures have the drawback of fluorescence quenching in the solid state thus limiting their application fields. Combining long range excimer/exciplex emissions with a compound emission have been used to get white light. In this work, a series of new coumarin derivatives having a planar structure have been synthesized and characterized. The effects of systematic variation in alkyl chain functionalization providing morphological variations that permit interesting solid state emitting properties have been discussed simultaneously with electrochemical behavior and OLED (organic light emitting diode) device applications. Carbon chains containing 0–16 carbon atoms have been studied in order to conclude the results that systematic changes in alkyl group substitution can be utilized as a tool to tune the emitting color of these planar coumarins. Alkyl chains were introduced by O-acylation and O-benzoylation reaction on the hydroxyl group of parent coumarin 5. Thus the present strategy is also helpful in establishing a template to control the unproductive interchromophore electronic couplings. Solid state fluorescence properties support the crystal studies. Theoretical studies are also in agreement with experimental data. Electroluminescence of Device 2 with a turn on voltage (Von) around 5–6 V having s-CBP doped with 1% of 8 having alkyl substitution of 2-carbons is found to exhibit white emission with CIE co-ordinates of (0.29, 0.34) which is close to white emission while the alkyl substitution of 14-carbons (compound 17) in Device 7 (Von = 7 V) exhibited green emission. Thus a strategy helpful to tune the electroluminescence has been discussed.

Two new polyoxometalate (POM)-based hybrid monomers (Bu4 N)5 (H)[P2 V3 W15 O59 {(OCH2 )3 CNHCO(CH3 )Cuf8feCH2 }] (2) and (S(CH3 )2 C6 H4 OCOC(CH3 )=CH2 )6 [PVu2009u20092Mo10 O40 ] (5) were developed by grafting polymerizable organic units covalently or electrostatically onto Wells-Dawson and Keggin-type clusters and were characterized by analytical and spectroscopic techniques including ESI-MS and/or single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. Radical initiated polymerization of 2 and 5 with organic monomers (methacryloyloxy)phenyldimethylsulfonium triflate (MAPDST) and/or methylmethacrylate (MMA) yielded a new series of POM/polymer hybrids that were characterized by (1) H, (31) Pu2005NMR and IR spectroscopic techniques, gel-permeation chromatography as well as thermal analyses. Preliminary tests were conducted on these POM/polymer hybrids to evaluate their properties as photoresists using electron beam (E-beam)/extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithographic techniques. It was observed that the POM/polymer hybrid of 2 with MAPDST exhibited improved sensitivity under EUV lithographic conditions in comparison to the MAPDST homopolymer resist possibly due to the efficient photon harvesting by the POM clusters from the EUV source.

Selective staining of human serum albumin protein in gel electrophoresis over wide range of other protein(s) is extremely important because it contains more than 60% volume of serum fluid in human body. Given the nonexistence of suitable dye materials for selective staining of serum albumins in gel electrophoresis, we report a new class of easy synthesizable and low molecular weight staining agents based on 3-amino-N-alkyl-carbazole scaffold for selective staining of serum albumins in solid phase. A detailed structure-efficiency relationship (SER) study enabled us to develop two such potent functional molecular probes which stain both human and bovine serum albumin selectively in gel electrophoresis in the presence of other proteins and enzymes. The present gel staining process was found to be very simple and less time-consuming as compared to the conventional coomassie blue staining which in turn makes these probes a new class of serum albumin-specific staining materials in proteome research. Moreover, these molecular lumino-materials can detect serum albumins at subnanomolar level in the presence of broad spectrum of other proteins/enzymes in aqueous buffer (99.9% water, pH = 7.3) keeping the protein secondary structure intact. Our experimental and the docking simulation results show that these probes bind preferentially at binding site I of both the serum proteins.

Vikram Singh; V. S. V. Satyanarayana; Satinder K. Sharma; Subrata Ghosh; Kenneth E. Gonsalves

A novel, non-chemically amplified negative resist was synthesized and characterized for next generation lithography applications. This resist material was shown to be directly sensitive to radiation without utilizing the concept of chemical amplification (CAR) and resulted in high-resolution 20 nm features. This resist design is accomplished by copolymers that are prepared from a monomer containing a sulfonium group which is sensitive to e-beam irradiation. Under 20 keV e-beam imaging and TMAH development, a sensitivity of 2.06 μC cm−2 and contrast of 1.8 were obtained. It has an LER of 20 nm, 10 line pattern varies from 1.8 ± 0.3 to 2.3 ± 0.4 nm.

Cysteamine-based cell-permeable Zn(2+)-specific molecular bioimaging materials: from animal to plant cells.

Sougata Sinha; Gourab Dey; Sunil Kumar; Jomon Mathew; Trinetra Mukherjee; Subhrakanti Mukherjee; Subrata Ghosh

Structure-interaction/fluorescence relationship studies led to the development of a small chemical library of Zn(2+)-specific cysteamine-based molecular probes. The probe L5 with higher excitation/emission wavelengths, which absorbs in the visible region and emits in the green, was chosen as a model imaging material for biological studies. After successful imaging of intracellular zinc in four different kinds of cells including living organisms, plant, and animal cells, in vivo imaging potential of L5 was evaluated using plant systems. In vivo imaging of translocation of zinc through the stem of a small herb with a transparent stem, Peperomia pellucida, confirmed the stability of L5 inside biological systems and the suitability of L5 for real-time analysis. Similarly, fluorescence imaging of zinc in gram sprouts revealed the efficacy of the probe in the detection and localization of zinc in cereal crops. This imaging technique will help in knowing the efficiency of various techniques used for zinc enrichment of cereal crops. Computational analyses were carried out to better understand the structure, the formation of probe-Zn(2+) complexes, and the emission properties of these complexes.

A hybrid polymeric material bearing a ferrocene-based pendant organometallic functionality: synthesis and applications in nanopatterning using EUV lithography

V. S. V. Satyanarayana; Vikram Singh; Vishwanath Kalyani; Chullikkattil P. Pradeep; Satinder K. Sharma; Subrata Ghosh; Kenneth E. Gonsalves

Largely because of their unique physical and chemical properties, the inclusion of ferrocene derivatives into polymer backbones has attracted great attention in materials research as these hybrid organometallic polymers find wide applications in various fields. Though chemically amplified photoresists (CARs) have become the workhorses for nanopatterning in semiconductor industries, due to several inherent problems CARs cannot be used for sub 20 nm technology and therefore non-chemically amplified resists (n-CARs) are gaining attention from the photoresists community, considering their potential in patterning sub 20 nm features with good line edge roughness/line width roughness (LER/LWR) and high resolution. Given that extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) is approaching well towards the commercialization phase, the present work describes the development of novel solution processable EUV-sensitive hybrid organic–organometallic polymeric non-chemically amplified photoresist materials containing pendant ferrocene units and their applications in featuring 25 nm lines and complex nanopatterns using EUVL. This resist design is accomplished by copolymers that are prepared from monomers containing sulfonium groups which are sensitive to EUV irradiation. The copolymers were characterized by 1H NMR and IR spectroscopic techniques, gel permeation chromatography as well as thermal analyses. Whereas the photon-directed polarity change at the sulfonium center followed by scission of the polymer backbone nullified the requirement for chemical amplification, the inclusion of organometallic species in the polymer microstructure into the polymer network improved the thermal stability of the resultant hybrid system.
