CaFeO(2), a material exhibiting an unprecedented layered structure containing 3d(6) iron in a high-spin distorted square-planar coordination, is reported. The new phase, obtained through a low-temperature reduction procedure using calcium hydride, has been characterized through powder neutron diffraction, synchrotron X-ray diffraction, Mossbauer spectroscopy, XAS experiments as well as first-principles DFT calculations. The XAS spectra near the Fe-K edge for the whole solid solution (Sr(1-x)Ca(x))FeO(2) supports that iron is in a square-planar coordination for 0

Background: The prohibitive costs of drug development for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) emphasize the need for alternative in silico drug repositioning strategies. Graph learning algorithms, capable of learning intrinsic features from complex network structures, can leverage existing databases of biological interactions to improve predictions in drug efficacy. We developed a novel machine learning framework, the PreSiBOGNN, that integrates muti-modal information to predict cognitive improvement at the subject level for precision medicine in AD.

The highly anisotropic and nonadditive nature of nanoparticle surfaces restricts their characterization by limited types of techniques that can reach atomic or molecular resolution. While small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) is a unique tool for analyzing complex systems, it has been traditionally considered a low-resolution method due to its limited scattering vector range and wide wavelength spread. In this article, we present a novel perspective on SANS by showcasing its exceptional capability to provide molecular-level insights into nanoparticle interfaces.

This study characterizes a fluorescent -tdTomato neuronal reporter mouse line with strong labeling of axons throughout the optic nerve, of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) soma in the ganglion cell layer (GCL), and of RGC dendrites in the inner plexiform layer (IPL). The model facilitated assessment of RGC loss in models of degeneration and of RGC detection in mixed neural/glial cultures. The tdTomato signal showed strong overlap with >98% cells immunolabeled with RGC markers RBPMS or BRN3A, consistent with the ubiquitous presence of the vesicular glutamate transporter 2 (VGUT2, SLC17A6) in all RGC subtypes.

The discovery of unconventional superconductivity often triggers significant interest in associated electronic and structural symmetry breaking phenomena. For the infinite-layer nickelates, structural allotropes are investigated intensively. Here, using high-energy grazing-incidence x-ray diffraction, we demonstrate how in-situ temperature annealing of the infinite-layer nickelate PrNiO ( ≈ 0) induces a giant superlattice structure.

In sodium-ion batteries, the layered transition metal oxides used as cathode often experience interlayer sliding of interlayer spacing and lattice variations during charge/discharge, leading to structural damage and capacity degradation. To address this challenge, a La doping strategy guided by Bayesian optimization has been employed to prepare the high-performance O3-NaNiMnCuLaO (NMCL) cathode material. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the O 2p orbital overlaps with the t orbital of transition metals in NMCL, facilitating the formation of Na-O-La bonds and promoting the oxygen redox reaction kinetics.
