Studies of phase transitions in molecular crystals are becoming more commonplace as improvements in instrumentation and technique enable more efficient exploration of the behavior of samples with varying external conditions, usually temperature. This scientific commentary provides contextual background on this type of study, with reference to an article on transformations in a ferrocenyl-acetylide-gold(I) complex [Makal (2018). Acta Cryst. B74, 427-435].

Nanostructured bismuth ferrite (BiFeO) single-phase nanoparticles with 76.2% crystallinity and 100% perovskite structure were synthesized using a co-precipitation method. The X-ray diffraction pattern confirmed the perovskite structure of BFO, and Rietveld refinement demonstrated the presence of a triclinic structure with the 1 space group.

The interest in alternative energy sources, including the use of solar radiation energy, is growing year by year. Currently, the most frequently installed photovoltaic modules are made of single-crystalline silicon solar cells (sc-Si). However, one of the latest solutions are perovskite solar cells (PSC), which are considered the future of photovoltaics.

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate the success of Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT), Bing, and Bard artificial intelligence programs, which were released free of charge by three different manufacturers, in correctly answering questions about lenses, cataract, and refractive surgery, and to investigate whether they are superior to each other.
Methods: Seventy questions related to lens, cataract, and refractive surgery were obtained from the study questions section of the American Academy of Ophthalmology 2022 to 2023 Basic and Clinical Science Course Lens and Cataract and Refractive Surgery Books. The questions were asked separately for the ChatGPT, Bing, and Bard artificial intelligence programs.

Atom probe tomography (APT) is a powerful technique for three-dimensional (3D) atomic-scale imaging, enabling the accurate analysis on the compositional distribution at the nanoscale. How to accurately reconstruct crystallographic information from APT data, however, is still a great challenge due to the intrinsic nature of the APT technique. In this paper, we propose a novel approach that consists of the modified forward simulation process and the backward machine learning process to recover the tested crystal from APT data.

Determining the atomic-level structure of a protein has been a decades-long challenge. However, recent advances in transformers and related neural network architectures have enabled researchers to significantly improve solutions to this problem. These methods use large datasets of sequence information and corresponding known protein template structures, if available.
