We report the synthesis and optical properties of noncentrosymmetric (NCS) γCsIO that was obtained through IO polyhedral rearrangements from centrosymmetric (CS) β-CsIO. Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) acts as a structure-directing agent and plays a key role in the synthesis. It is suggested that the function of TFA is to promote rearrangement reactions found in the organic synthesis of stereoisomers. γCsIO crystallizes in the NCS monoclinic space group 2 (No. 4) and exhibits a strong second-harmonic-generation (SHG) response of 5.0 × KDP (KHPO) under 1064 nm laser radiation. Additional SHG experiments indicate that the material is type I phase matchable. First-principles calculations show that SHG intensity mainly comes from its , , and SHG tensor components. The synthetic strategy of discovering γCsIO provides a new way for designing novel NCS SHG materials.

In this study, a Co doped polyhedral carbon skeleton (Co CN) was prepared by nitrogen carbonization using ZIF-67 as a precursor. The Co CN features a rough surface with excellent electrical conductivity, and the Co atoms exhibit unique catalytic properties. Based on these characteristics, we used Co CN as a carrier to load Au nanoparticles (NPs) onto its surface through the linkage and reduction effects of polyoxometalates (POMs).

Silicon-based anode materials experience significant volume changes and low conductivity during the lithiation process, which severely hinders their successful application in lithium-ion batteries. Reducing the size of silicon particles and effectively combining them with carbon-based materials are considered the main strategies to enhance the lithium-ion storage performance of silicon-based anodes. In this study, we employed a "bottom-up" strategy to synthesize Si@C anode materials by cross-linking octa-aminopropyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (NH-POSS) with terephthalaldehyde and subsequent high-temperature treatment and low-temperature liquid reduction.

The quest for novel nonlinear optical (NLO) polymorphs is pivotal for advancing laser technology and frequency conversion applications. We present a detailed study on the synthesis and properties of the 2 polymorph of CHNOZn, which exhibits an enhanced second harmonic generation (SHG) effect, 0.3 times that of KDP, nearly 8-fold higher than the 422 phase.

Lithium metal electrodes inevitably lead to the decomposition of the liquid electrolyte and lithium dendrite growth, both of which result in the formation of unstable solid electrolyte intermediates (SEIs). Gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) are expected to replace liquid electrolytes for optimizing the SEI issues of lithium metal. Herein, a cellulose-based gel electrolyte cross-linked by thiol-modified polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (thiol-modified-POSS) was successfully obtained based on "thiol-ene" click chemistry.

In the endocrine system, anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is extremely aggressive since it inhibits the majority of medications and treatments. Therefore, there is an immediate demand to identify new treatment approaches or drugs to deal with ATC. Recently, amino acid Schiff base copper complexes have received great attention due to their excellent anti-tumor activity.
