During the synthesis of an FeBr complex with the PNP ligand (,,,)-[Fe(CH)(CHNP)] (), single crystals of the di-chloro-methane monosolvate of the Br salt of the protonated ligand H were obtained serendipitously, [Fe(CH)(CHNP)]Br·CHCl. The crystal structure of H·Br·CHCl was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The mean bond lengths in the ferrocene units are Fe-C = 2.049 (3) Å and C-C = 1.422 (4) Å within the cyclo-penta-dienyl rings. The mean C-N bond length is 1.523 (4) Å. The inter-planar angle between the two connected cyclo-penta-dienyl rings is 49.2 (2)°. One ferrocene moiety adopts a staggered conformation, whereas the other is between staggered and eclipsed. The Br ions and the CHCl mol-ecules are located in channels extending along <100>. One ammonium H atom forms a hydrogen bond with the Br ion [H⋯Br = 2.32 (4) Å and C-H⋯Br = 172 (3)°]. The second ammonium H atom is not involved in hydrogen bonding.

With the potential to surpass the Shockley-Queisser (S-Q) limitation for solar energy conversion, the bulk photovoltaic (BPV) effect, which is induced by the broken inversion symmetry of the lattice, presents prospects for future light-harvesting technologies. However, the development of BPV is largely limited by the low solar spectrum conversion efficiency of existing noncentrosymmetric materials with wide band gaps. This study reports that the strain-induced reduction of inversion symmetry can enhance the second-order nonlinear susceptibility (χ) of SnPSe crystals by an order of magnitude, which contributes to an extremely high value of 1.

The synthesis of mesoporous metal-organic frameworks (meso-MOFs) is desirable as these materials can be used in various applications. However, owing to the imbalance in structural tension at the micro-scale (MOF crystallization) and the meso-scales (assembly of micelles with MOF subunits), the formation of single-crystal meso-MOFs is challenging. Here we report the preparation of uniform single-crystal meso-MOF nanoparticles with ordered mesopore channels in microporous frameworks with definite arrangements, through a cooperative assembly method co-mediated by strong and weak acids.

sp-carbon-linked covalent organic frameworks (spc-COFs) are crystalline porous polymers with repeat organic units linked by sp carbons, and have attracted increasing interest due to their robust skeleton and tunable semiconducting properties. Single-crystalline spc-COFs with well-defined structures can represent an ideal platform for investigating fundamental physics properties and device performance. However, the robust olefin bonds inhibit the reversible-reaction-based crystal self-correction, thus yielding polycrystalline or amorphous polymers.

In laser safety eyewear, due to the lack of complete blocking of ultraviolet and infrared rays, we proposed a structure based on one-dimensional multilayer composed of several layers of silicon dioxide and zirconium dioxide materials alternately behind polycarbonate lens. It is find out that the acceptance angle range to the photonic crystal is 0 to 39°. This incident angle range corresponds to the band gap of the photonic crystal.

In this study, we report the synthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles (FeONPs) using micro-emulsion-hydrothermal method. By adjusting the synthesis temperature, we successfully produced FeO nanorods and nanospheres. In addition, the 2-octanol, and the surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide served as a solvent in the synthesis process.
