The pressure effects on three different AlOOH structures (α, γ, and δ phases) are systematically analyzed by density functional theory with different exchange and correlation energy functional approximations, namely two local, two generalized-gradient approximation (GGA), and two GGA for solids (GGAsol). Phase stability, compressibility and hydrogen bond evolution are studied in a range of pressures from 0 to 30 GPa. In general, the use of GGAsol functionals is mandatory in order to have the correct phase stability order, a good description of the hydrogen bonds, and a close agreement with the experimental lattice parameters at the various pressures. Pressure-induced hydrogen-bond symmetrization is found in γ and δ phases at high compression, while the hydrogen bonds in the α phase remain asymmetric. A detailed analysis of the uncertainties on the values of the bulk moduli and their pressure derivative at zero pressure deduced by fitting calculated or experimental (P,V) data is also presented.

The optimization of morphology in all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs) often relies on the use of solvent additives. However, their tendency to remain trapped in the device due to high boiling points leads to performance degradation over time. In this study, we introduce a novel approach involving the design and synthesis of one dual-asymmetric solid additive featuring mono-brominated-asymmetric dithienothiophene (SL-1).

Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) is a fast and simple sample preparation technique that enables the enrichment of analytes, and it is used in combination with other detection techniques to provide accurate and sensitive analytical methods. SPME is widely used in environmental monitoring, food safety, life analysis, biomedicine, and other applications. The extractive coating is the core of the SPME technique, and the properties of the extractive coating greatly influence extraction selectivity and efficiency, as well as the enrichment effect.
