Low-temperature three-terminal transport measurements through a thiol end-capped pi-conjugated molecule have been carried out. Electronic excitations, including zero and finite-bias Kondo-effects, have been observed and studied as a function of magnetic field. Using a simplified two-orbital model, we have accounted for the spin and the electronic configuration of the first four charge states of the molecule. The charge-dependent couplings to gate, source, and drain electrodes suggest a scenario in which charges and spins are localized at the ends of the molecule, close to the electrodes.

The development of advanced optical probes for point-of-care testing holds great importance in the field of diagnostic technologies. This study focused on the synthesis of a probe featuring both fluorescent and photothermal responses with single excitation wavelength, which was achieved through the combination of oxidized camellia oleifera shell powder (OC) and Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs). Notably, OC derived from the direct processing of raw material showed fluorescent and phosphorescent emissions simultaneously, and the positions of the two peaks overlapped with the absorbance range of PBNPs, making the fluorescent and phosphorescent emissions of OC effectively quenched by PBNPs.

Doped semiconductors can exhibit metallic-like properties ranging from superconductivity to tunable localized surface plasmon resonances. Diamond is a wide-bandgap semiconductor that is rendered electronically active by incorporating a hole dopant, boron. While the effects of boron doping on the electronic band structure of diamond are well-studied, any link between charge carriers and plasmons has never been shown.

Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a serious parasitic infectious disease that is highly invasive and destructive to the liver and has a high mortality rate. However, currently, there is no effective targeted imaging and treatment method for the precise detection and therapy of AE. We proposed a new two-step targeting strategy (TSTS) for AE based on poly(lactic--glycolic acid) (PLGA).

High-level multireference configuration interaction plus Davidson correction (MRCI + Q) calculation method was employed to determine the potential energy curves (PECs) of 10 Λ-S states, which come from the first and second dissociation channels of the SbP molecule, as well as 34 Ω states considering the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) effect. By solving the Schrödinger equation for nuclear motion, spectroscopic constants for the ground state XΣ and low-lying excited states were obtained and compared with experimental data. The excellent agreement indicates the reliability of our calculations.

A series of Co complexes [Co(ImP)][PF], with HImP = 1,1'-(1,3-phenylene)bis(3-methyl-1-imidazole-2-ylidene)) and R = Me, Et, Pr, Bu, is presented in this work. The influence of the strong donor ligand on the ground and excited-state photophysical properties was investigated in the context of different alkyl substituents at the imidazole nitrogen. X-ray diffraction revealed no significant alterations of the structures and all differences in the series emerge from the electronic structures.
