A highly efficient method for optical or microwave detection and separation of left- and right-handed chiral molecules is proposed. The method utilizes a closed-loop three-state system in which the population dynamics depends on the phases of the three couplings. Because of the different signs of the coupling between two of the states for the opposite chiralities the population dynamics is chirality dependent. By using the "shortcuts to adiabaticity" concept applied to the stimulated Raman adiabatic passage technique, one can achieve 100% contrast between the two enantiomers in the population of a particular state. It can be probed by light-induced fluorescence for large ensembles or through resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization for single molecules.

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have recently achieved over 26% power conversion efficiency, challenging the dominance of silicon-based alternatives. This progress is significantly driven by innovations in hole transport materials (HTMs), which notably influence the efficiency and stability of PSCs. However, conventional organic HTMs like PTAA, although highly efficient, suffer from thermal degradation, moisture ingress, and high cost.

The ZSM-5 zeolite is the key active component in high-severity fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) catalysts and is routinely activated by phosphorus compounds in industrial production. To date, however, the detailed structure and function of the introduced phosphorus still remain ambiguous, which hampers the rational design of highly efficient catalysts. In this work, using advanced solid-state NMR techniques, we have quantitatively identified a total of seven types of P-containing complexes in P-modified ZSM-5 zeolite and clearly revealed their structure, location, and catalytic role.

Zeolite was successfully synthesized using a mixture of kaolinite clay (which served as the alumina source) and rice husk ash (silica source). The aim of this work was to synthesize highly efficient zelolite to remove methyle blue dye from aqueous solution. The synthesized adsorbent was characterised using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, powder x-ray diffraction (PXRD) analysis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and pH at the point of zero charge (pHpzc).

In this study, we present the design, synthesis, and utilization of a covalent triazine framework (CTF) formed by the condensation of , , -tris(4-(aminomethyl)benzyl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triamine and 2,4,6-tris(4-formylphenoxy)-1,3,5-triazine on which silica is immobilized (TPT-TAT/silica) as an innovative catalyst for porphyrins synthesis. Under solvothermal conditions, the condensation of triamine and trialdehyde precursors led to the formation of a covalent triazine framework (CTF) with a high nitrogen content. The resulting CTF is characterized by its extensive porosity and elevated nitrogen levels, which are critical for the creation of catalytic active sites.

We present a Fourier neural operator (FNO)-based surrogate solver for the efficient optimization of wavefronts in tunable metasurface controls. Existing methods, including the Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm and the adjoint optimization, are often computationally demanding due to their iterative processes, which require numerical simulations at each step. Our surrogate solver overcomes this limitation by providing highly accurate gradient estimations with respect to changes in tunable meta-atoms without the need for direct simulations.
