Recently proposed universality of the nonlinear response is put to the test and used to improve a previously designed model for xenon. Utilizing accurate measurements resolving the nonlinear polarization and ionization in time and space, we calibrate the scaling parameters of the model and demonstrate agreement with several experiments spanning the intensity range relevant for applications in nonlinear optics at near-infrared and mid-infrared wavelengths. Applications to other species including small molecules are discussed, suggesting a self-consistent way to calibrate light-matter interaction models.

Transformation of Distinct Superatoms to Superalkalis by Successive Ligation of Thymine Nucleobases.

The ligation strategy has been widely used in the chemical synthesis of atomically precise clusters. A series of thymine (T)-ligated Al-T ( = Be, Al, C; = 1-5) complexes have been studied to reveal the effect of DNA nucleobase ligands on the electronic structures of different superatoms in the present work. In addition to its protective role, the successive attachment of thymine ligands significantly lowers the adiabatic ionization energies (AIEs) of the studied Al superatoms with filled and unfilled electronic shells.

Diffraction-before-destruction imaging with ultrashort X-ray pulses can visualize non-equilibrium processes, such as chemical reactions, with sub-femtosecond precision in the native environment. Here, a nanospecimen diffracts a single X-ray flash before it disintegrates. The sample structure can be reconstructed from the coherent diffraction image (CDI).

The transient dynamics of photocurrents for poly((4-diphenylamino)benzyl acrylate) (PDAA)-based photorefractive (PR) polymers sensitized with perylene bisimide derivative N,N'-diisopropylphenyl-1,6,7,12-tetrachloroperylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxyl bisimide (PBI) at various composition ratios were studied. The PR polymer included (4-(diphenylamino)phenyl)methanol (TPAOH) photoconductive plasticizer and (4-(azepan-1-yl)-benzylidene) malononitrile nonlinear optical dye as well, which are needed for inducing PR effects. All the photocurrents measured at 640 nm were well simulated by a two-trapping site model considering photocarrier generation and recombination processes of the charge transfer (CT) complex between PBI and PDAA.

Article Synopsis
  • The study used time-dependent density functional theory to analyze how MoS2 (a semiconductor material) reacts to laser pulses, focusing on factors like laser wavelength, intensity, and polarization.
  • Findings revealed that the way MoS2 absorbs energy changes at different laser intensities, particularly distinguishing between infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) lasers.
  • The research has important implications for improving MoS2 photodetectors, especially in terms of their performance and durability when exposed to powerful short-wavelength lasers.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to explore how the ratio of ionized to total calcium affects the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill patients with autoimmune conditions.
  • Researchers analyzed data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database, categorizing patients based on their calcium ratios and using statistical models to evaluate the relationship between calcium ratios and AKI incidence.
  • The findings revealed that higher ionized-to-total calcium ratios were linked to a significantly lower risk of developing AKI, with a notable protective effect observed across most patient subgroups.
