Due to the great range of the application fields for apatites, there is a strong need to complete the data set determining the properties of these minerals. In this study, Raman and Infrared spectra of the phases from pyromorphite Pb(PO)Cl - vanadinite Pb(VO)Cl series were investigated. Totally, 9 samples (2 end-members and 7 solid solutions of the series) were synthesized at 25°C and pH=3.5, and analyzed. In the Raman and Infrared spectra of the studied Pb-apatites, the bands typical for the vibrations in the PO and the VO tetrahedra appeared. The bands attributed to the stretching vibrations (ν, ν) occurred in the 1050-910cm and 830-720cm regions, whereas the bending vibrations (ν, ν) were visible at the 580-540cm, 430-380cm and 370-290cm range. The position of the bands depended on the P/(P+V) ratio in the analyzed solid, since there are differences in the ionic radii and the atomic mass of P and V, which affect the bong lengths, bond forces and the banding energies of the substituting tetrahedra. The analysis allowed observing gradual shifts of the bands caused by the replacement of phosphorous with vanadium in the studied phases. The positions and the intensities of selected bands are proposed to serve as a semi-quantitative estimation of the chemical composition of the phases from the pyromorphite - vanadinite series.

The detection of both Br and its derivative of tetrabutylammonium tribromide (TBATB) is a very important issue concerning their biological toxicity but remains challenging. Fluorescent sensing is one of the few methods possessing both selectivity and sensitivity. Moreover, it could be able to be utilized in biological system, but rarely reported.

Rainwater harvesting (RWH) for drinking water production has been a potential solution to mitigate water scarcity in rural areas. There was limited research focusing on the quality of treated rainwater. This study developed and tested the quality of a drinking water filtration system (DWFS) for treating harvested rainwater to support rural communities.

Self-organization under out-of-equilibrium conditions is ubiquitous in natural systems for the generation of hierarchical solid-state patterns of complex structures with intricate properties. Efforts in applying this strategy to synthetic materials that mimic biological function have resulted in remarkable demonstrations of programmable self-healing and adaptive materials. However, the extension of these efforts to multifunctional stimuli-responsive solid-state materials across defined spatial distributions remains an unrealized technological opportunity.

The chemical flexibility of the tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) structure offers a large potential for compositional engineering. Cation size and vacancy concentration are known to affect its structure, cation disorder, and functional properties. However, the compositional complexity also makes the TTB structure challenging to understand.
