Understanding magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA) is fundamentally important for developing novel magnetic materials. Therefore, clarifying the relationship between MCA and local physical quantities observed by spectroscopic measurements, such as the orbital and quadrupole moments, is necessary. In this review, we discuss MCA and the distortion effects in magnetic materials with transition metals (TMs) based on the orbital and quadrupole moments, which are related to the spin-conserving and spin-flip terms in the second-order perturbation calculations, respectively. We revealed that orbital moment stabilized the spin moment in the direction of the larger orbital moment, while the quadrupole moment stabilized the spin moment along the longitudinal direction of the spin-density distribution. The MCA of the magnetic materials with TMs and their interfaces can be determined from the competition between these two contributions. We showed that the perpendicular MCA of the face-centered cubic Ni with tensile tetragonal distortion arose from the orbital moment anisotropy, whereas that of Mn-Ga alloys originated from the quadrupole moment of spin density. In contrast, in the Co/Pd(111) multilayer and Fe/MgO(001), both the orbital moment anisotropy and quadrupole moment of spin density at the interfaces contributed to the perpendicular MCA. Understanding the MCA of magnetic materials and interfaces based on orbital and quadrupole moments is essential to design MCA of novel magnetic applications.

Transmission-type plasmonic phase metasurfaces utilizing the Pancharatnam-Berry (PB) phase require constant transmittivity with complete phase variation from 0 to 2π. Usually, this is achieved by rotating metallic nanoparticles in an otherwise uniform lattice arrangement. However, this rotation and the chosen lattice structure cause a significant change in the transmittivity, resulting in a lower intensity of light with certain phases and a higher intensity for other phases.

[Na(HO)][FeSe] was synthesized using hydrothermal methods and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy, magnetization, and muon spin resonance (μSR) measurements. The cubic crystal structure (space group 23, = 11.785 Å, = 2) contains heterocubane-type clusters with symmetry.

Background: Monitoring labs are a fundamental link in the food safety chain, and regulatory demands in a competitive economy call for analytical methods that are simpler, faster, more rugged, and broader in scope. The QuEChERSER mega-method introduced in 2021 meets these monitoring needs, which includes high sample throughput, automated cleanup of extracts, and fast low-pressure gas chromatography (LPGC).
Objective: The goal of this work was to extend the QuEChERSER method to additional matrices and more analytes using LPGC, including comparison of the analytical performances of two different mass spectrometric (MS) analyzers: triple quadrupole tandem MS/MS and orbital ion trap (orbitrap) high-resolution (HR)MS.

Gas-phase reactions of [OsB] ( = 1-4) with methane at ambient temperature have been studied by using quadrupole-ion trap mass spectrometry combined with quantum chemical calculations. The [OsB] ( = 1-4) cluster ions can undergo dehydrogenation reactions with methane. Comprehensive analysis of the [OsB]/CH ( = 1-4) system with Os-complexes ([OsC] ( = 1-3) and [OsO] ( = 1-3)) shows that the large polarity of the cluster and the high sum of the pair energies between Os and the ligand in the ETS-NOCV combine to promote the ability of the cluster to activate methane.
