Dipraseodymium molybdenum scandium hepta-oxide, Pr2Mo1.73Sc0.27O7, crystallizes in the cubic pyrochlore-type structure. In the crystal, (Mo,Sc)O6 octa-hedra are linked together by common corners, forming a three-dimensional [(Mo,Sc)2O6] framework. The Pr atom and another O atom atom are located in the voids of this framework. The Mo and the Sc atom are distributed statistically over the same 16d crystallographic position, with site-occupancy factors of 0.867 (3) and 0.133 (3), respectively. The Pr(3+) ions are surrounded by six O atoms from the MoO6 octa-hedra and by two other O atoms, forming a ditrigonal scalenohedron. All atoms lie on special positions. The Pr and the statistically distributed (Mo,Sc) sites are in the 16c and 16d positions with .-3m symmetry, and two O atoms are in 48f and 8a positions with 2.mm and -43m site symmetry, respectively.

In the relentless pursuit of unraveling the intricate pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD), amyloid β (Aβ) proteins emerge as focal points due to their pivotal role in disease progression. The pathological hallmark of AD involves the aberrant aggregation of Aβ peptides into amyloid fibrils, precipitating a cascade of neurodegenerative events culminating in cognitive decline and neuronal loss. This study adopts a computational framework to investigate the potential therapeutic efficacy of novel biosurfactants (BS) in mitigating Aβ fibril formation.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with long persistent luminescence (LPL) have attracted extensive research attention due to their potential applications in information encryption, anticounterfeiting technology, and security logic. The strategic combinations of organic phosphor linkers and metal ions lead to tremendous frameworks, which could unveil many undiscovered properties of organics. Here, the synthesis and characterization of a three-dimensional MOF (Cd-MOF) is reported, which demonstrates enhanced blue photoluminescence and a phosphorescent lifetime of 124 ms as compared to the pristine linker (HL) under ambient conditions due to the scaffolding and heavy-atom effects of metal chains in the framework.

In the realm of petroleum extraction, well productivity declines as reservoirs deplete, eventually reaching a point where continued extraction becomes economically unfeasible. To counteract this, artificial lift techniques are employed, with gas injection being a prevalent method. Ideally, unrestricted gas injection could maximize oil output.

High-harmonic generation (HHG) is a nonlinear process in which a material sample is irradiated by intense laser pulses, causing the emission of high harmonics of incident light. HHG has historically been explained by theories employing a classical electromagnetic field, successfully capturing its spectral and temporal characteristics. However, recent research indicates that quantum-optical effects naturally exist or can be artificially induced in HHG, such as entanglement between emitted harmonics.
