The first octahedral spherical hohlraum energetics experiment is accomplished at the SGIII laser facility. For the first time, the 32 laser beams are injected into the octahedral spherical hohlraum through six laser entrance holes. Two techniques are used to diagnose the radiation field of the octahedral spherical hohlraum in order to obtain comprehensive experimental data. The radiation flux streaming out of laser entrance holes is measured by six flat-response x-ray detectors (FXRDs) and four M-band x-ray detectors, which are placed at different locations of the SGIII target chamber. The radiation temperature is derived from the measured flux of FXRD by using the blackbody assumption. The peak radiation temperature inside hohlraum is determined by the shock wave technique. The experimental results show that the octahedral spherical hohlraum radiation temperature is in the range of 170-182 eV with drive laser energies of 71 kJ to 84 kJ. The radiation temperature inside the hohlraum determined by the shock wave technique is about 175 eV at 71 kJ. For the flat-top laser pulse of 3 ns, the conversion efficiency of gas-filled octahedral spherical hohlraum from laser into soft x rays is about 80% according to the two-dimensional numerical simulation.

Precise tuning of ligands and a comprehensive understanding of their roles and functionalities are crucial for the design of nanoparticles (NPs) with tailored properties. In this study, we present the synthesis of copper NPs with precise control over their shape and crystallinity, relying on the remarkable versatility of oleylamine (OLA) as both a solvent and a ligand. By adjusting the temperature, OLA enables the formation of cubic NPs under rapid heating, reflecting kinetic control, and octahedral NPs with slow heating, indicating thermodynamic control.

A collection of magnetic nanoparticles with average particle sizes in the range between 9 and 78 nm were prepared using several synthetic approaches that also provided different particle morphologies (spherical, octahedral and flowers). Some of these particles were also subsequently coated with different molecules in order to generate a set of materials that allowed us to evaluate the impact that the particle size, shape and coating had on the heating capacity of the nanoparticles when exposed to near infrared (NIR) laser light. Moreover, one of the prepared materials (octahedral particles of ∼32 nm coated with dextran) was used to perform an assay to study the possible use of this material in the frame of photothermal treatments to trigger cell death.

Micrometer-sized single crystal cathodes have garnered significant interest as promising cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries due to their ability to reduce surface area exposure to electrolytes and suppress side reactions, thereby enhancing electrochemical performance. One of the challenging issues with single crystal cathode materials is synthesizing monodisperse and discrete single crystals rather than agglomerated quasi-single crystals. However, conventional solid-state synthesis of most single crystals results in severe agglomeration and cation mixing, as it requires high temperatures to promote particle growth to several micrometers.

A condensation reaction of salicylic acid with formaldehyde in the presence of sulfuric acid led to the synthesization of the bis(2-hydroxy-3-carboxyphenyl)methane (BHCM) ligand, which was subsequently allowed to bind with nickel (II) ions. In light of the information obtained from the elemental analyses (C, H, and M), spectral (IR, MS, H-NMR, and UV-Vis) and thermal and magnetic measurements, the most likely structures of the ligand and complex have been identified. It has been suggested that the BHCM coordinates in a tetradentate manner with two Ni(II) ions to produce an octahedral binuclear complex.
