Abstract Structural and magnetic properties of Ba 2 (B,Re) 2 O 6 (B = Fe, Mn, Co and Ni) double‐perovskite oxides have been investigated. Rietveld analysis shows that all our synthesized samples are single phase and crystallize at room temperature in the cubic double‐perovskite structure with Fm3m space group. Magneti…

Two polyoxometalate Keggin-type anions, alpha-PM12O40(3-) (M = Mo, W), were transferred to the gas phase by electrospray; their electronic structure and stability were probed by photoelectron spectroscopy. These triply charged anions were found to be highly stable in the gas phase with large adiabatic electron detachm…

A 1:1 adduct of chloranilic acid with 5,5'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine, in which two kinds of molecules are connected by infinite hydrogen bond chains, exhibits a distinct dielectric phase transition when cooled. Below T(c)(=318 K) the hydrogen atoms participating in hydrogen bonding undergo long-range ordering and form…

Ligand-exchange reactions of 4-( N, N -dimethylamino)pyridine-capped gold nanoparticles (DMAP−Au NP) with functionalized thiols (RSH) were investigated. A simple, convenient, and facile synthesis method has been developed. An important feature of this method is its requirement of only very modest quantities of excess…

The gelation kinetics of self-assembled hydrogels consisting of the β-hairpin peptide MAX1 are investigated using microrheology and far-UV circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. The intramolecular folding of this peptide is engineered to control its self-assembly into β-sheet-rich hydrogels. When the peptide is unfolde…

We present a structural study of the mesophases of three achiral bent-core compounds with azo and azoxy bonds. The study is based on textures observation and small-angle X-ray diffraction. It is found that the materials exhibit columnar and tilted smectic mesophases. Optical second-harmonic generation measurements are…

Mg10Ir19B16, a previously unreported compound in the Mg-Ir-B chemical system, is found to be superconducting at temperatures near 5 K. The fact that the compound exhibits a range of superconducting temperatures between 4 and 5 K suggests that a range of stoichiometries is allowed, though no structural evidence for thi…

First-principles study of hydride molecule adsorption on $\mathrm{C}(001):\mathrm{H}$ reveals unexpected dihydrogen bonding. It implies that H is more electronegative than C, despite that the contrary has been widely used to explain the observed diamond work function reduction due to surface hydrogenation. We resolve…

We report on the crystal structures of two polymorphs of scyllo-inositol. Crystallization of this inositol initially failed to yield a single crystal suitable for structure solution, so a computational prediction of the low-energy forms was performed in parallel with the crystallization experiments. When a single crys…
