A new noncentrosymmetric strontium borate, P1-Sr[BO(OH)] ⋅ [B(OH)] ⋅ HO (1), has been synthesized under the hydrothermal condition. The P1-Sr[BO(OH)] ⋅ [B(OH)] ⋅ HO shows a layered B-O network with 9-ring windows in the ab plane. Sr cations, HBO, and HO molecules are located in the voids of layers and interlayers, respectively. The P1-Sr[BO(OH)] ⋅ [B(OH)] ⋅ HO is the first synthetic phase of veatchite, while the other three polymorphs are found in different natural minerals. This strontium borate is a potential deep-ultraviolet-transparent nonlinear-optical (NLO) crystal whose second-harmonic-generation (SHG) intensity is 1.7 times that of KHPO (KDP) and is phase-matchable. The short wavelength cutoff edge of compound 1 is below 190 nm. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that the B-O units are responsible for the nonlinear optical property.

The sample temperature in an externally heated diamond anvil cell (EHDAC) is generally measured by a thermocouple fixed to the pavilions of diamond anvils, ignoring the temperature difference between the thermocouple and the sample. However, the measured temperature depends strongly on the placement of the thermocouple, thus seriously reducing the accuracy of the temperature measurement and hindering the use of EHDAC in experiments requiring precise temperature measurements, such as high-pressure melting and phase-diagram investigations. In this study, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the 0-0 fluorescence line of strontium borate doped with bivalent samarium ions (SrBO:Sm, SBO) is found to be highly sensitive to temperature and responds extremely rapidly to small temperature fluctuations, which makes it an excellent temperature indicator.

Recycling of agro-wastes presents a great economic and ecologic value. In this study, TEMPO-oxidized nanofibrillated cellulose (TONFC) originating from sugarcane bagasse pulp was exploited in regenerative medicine. TONFC in combination with glucosamine HCl (G) were used to prepare a 3D aerogel implant loaded with rosuvastatin as an integrative approach for extraction-socket healing.

Amorphous materials with non-periodic structures are commonly evaluated based on their chemical composition, which is not always the best parameter to evaluate physical properties, and an alternative parameter more suitable for performance evaluation must be considered. Herein, we quantified various structural and physical properties of Ce-doped strontium borate glasses and studied their correlations by principal component analysis. We found that the density-driven molar volume is suitable for the evaluation of structural data, while chemical composition is better for the evaluation of optical and luminescent data.
