π-Orbital bonding plays an important role not only in traditional molecular science and solid-state chemistry but also in modern quantum physics and materials, such as the relativistic Dirac states formed by bonding and antibonding π-bands in graphene. Here, we disclose an interesting manifestation of π-orbitals in forming the Yin-Yang Kagome bands, which host potentially a range of exotic quantum phenomena. Based on first-principles calculations and tight-binding orbital analyses, we show that the frontier π2- and π3-orbitals in anilato-based metal-organic frameworks form concurrently a conduction and valence set of Kagome bands, respectively, but with opposite signs of lattice hopping to constitute a pair of enantiomorphic Yin and Yang Kagome bands, as recently proposed in a diatomic Kagome lattice. The twisted configuration of neighboring benzene-derived organic ligands bridged by an octahedrally O-coordinated metal ion is found to play a critical role in creating the opposite sign of lattice hopping for the π2- versus π3-orbitals. Our finding affords a new material platform to study π-orbital originated quantum chemistry and physics.An efficient iron-catalyzed carbonylative cyclization of γ,δ-unsaturated aromatic oxime esters with amines has been developed. A range of functionalized β-homoproline amide derivatives were prepared via an iminyl radical-mediated intramolecular 1,5-cyclization followed by carbon radical-triggered intermolecular carbonylation. Examples on further transforming the obtained product were successfully discussed as well.Artificial metalloenzymes have been recently established as efficient alternatives to traditional transition metal catalysts. The presence of a secondary coordination sphere in artificial metalloenzymes makes them advantageous over transition metal catalysts, which rely essentially on their first coordination sphere to exhibit their catalytic activity. Recent developments on streptavidin- and avidin-based artificial metalloenzymes have made them highly chemically and genetically evolved for selective organometallic transformations. In this review, we discuss the chemo-genetic optimization of streptavidin- and avidin-based artificial metalloenzymes for the enhancement of their catalytic activities towards a wide range of synthetic transformations. Considering the high impact in vivo applications of artificial metalloenzymes, their catalytic efficacies to promote abiological reactions in intracellular as well as periplasmic environment are also discussed. Overall, this review can provide an insight to readers regarding the design and systematic optimization of strept(avidin)-based artificial metalloenzymes for specific reactions.Femtosecond optical pump-probe spectroscopy is employed to elucidate the ultrafast carrier nonradiative relaxation dynamics of bare GaAs and a core-shell GaAs/AlGaAs semiconductor nanowire array. Different from the single nanowire conventionally used for the study of ultrafast dynamics, a simple spin coating and peeling off method was performed to prepare transparent organic films containing a vertical oriented nanowire array for transient absorption measurement. The transient experiment provides the direct observation of carrier thermalization, carrier cooling, thermal dissipation and band-gap energy evolutions along with the carrier relaxations. Carrier thermalization occurs within sub-0.5 ps and proceeds almost independently on the AlGaAs-coating, while the time constants of carrier cooling and thermal dissipation are increased by an order of magnitude due to the AlGaAs-coating effect. The concomitant band-gap evolutions in GaAs and GaAs/AlGaAs include an initial rapid red-shift in thermalization period, followed by a slow blue and/or red shift in carrier cooling, and then by an even slower blue shift in thermal dissipation. The evolution is explained by the competition of band-gap renormalization, plasma screening and band-filling. These findings are significant for understanding the basic physics of carrier scattering, and also for the development of flexible optoelectronic devices.Two glass-transitions have been observed in some miscible molecular mixtures with notable differences in geometry or chemistry of constituents. The explanation of the phenomena has been puzzling with diverse structural models. Here, we present detailed studies on two glass-transition mixtures composed of tripropyl phosphate (TPP) and polystyrene (PS) by using calorimetric and dielectric measurements. We found that ageing between the two transitions always generates endothermic peaks at temperatures ∼4 K higher than the ageing temperatures and, subsequent thermal cycles around the peaks can remove the ageing effect and restore the systems, confirming the co-existence of nonequilibrium and equilibrium states in the regions. We also found that the broad glass transition thermogram is associated with highly stretched relaxation dynamics. The results allow us to draw a conclusion of continuous mobility gradient spanning the two TPP-PS glass-transitions, rather than complete phase separation.The development of novel white-light-emission phosphors is of great importance for applications in lighting and display fields. Trivalent Dy3+ is widely used as a potential luminescence center for white-light emission. However, Dy3+-doped phosphors often suffer a poor yellow to blue ratio due to the deficiency of its 4F9/2 → 6H15/2 transition, low luminescence efficiency, and unsatisfactory thermal stability. #link# The importance of the present research work is that we have achieved a tunable white light in a single phased stannate phosphor Sr3Al10SnO20Dy3+ with robust thermal stability. The crystal structure, phase purity, and chemical composition were investigated via X-ray diffraction Rietveld structure refinement, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectrometry. The luminescence spectra indicated that Sr3Al10SnO20Dy3+ not only exhibited characteristic 4F9/2 → 6HJ/2 (J=11, 13, and 15) inherent transition emissions of Dy3+, but also showed an abnormal blue band emission, which was identified throchanism was discussed. The current work provides a novel method to achieve tunable white-light emission in Dy3+ single-doped phosphors and the related mechanism is effectual for other rare earths for potential applications in lighting and display fields.Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a disease biomarker, which can reflect the existence of tumors. The accurate detection of CEA in clinical samples is highly valuable for diagnosis of tumors. Herein, we developed an enzyme-free fluorescent biosensor for highly sensitive detection of CEA based on an aptamer-induced entropy-driven circuit. The aptamer hairpin specifically bound to CEA to expose the locked domain. Then, the exposed domain could trigger disassembly of multiple fluorophore strands from the three-strand complexes with the aid of fuel strands, leading to the production of remarkable amplified fluorescent signals. The one-step and homogeneous method exhibited high specificity and a wide linear range from 10 pg mL-1 to 500 ng mL-1 with a low limit of detection of 4.2 pg mL-1. What's more, the whole detection process could be performed within 45 min and did not involve the use of any protein enzymes and antibodies. The developed strategy could also be applied to detect CEA in clinical samples with satisfactory results. Therefore, the strategy is an alternative sensing method for the detection of CEA.The current study is aimed at understanding the effects of diluting the magnetic properties of a geometrically frustrated normal spinel, ZnV2O4, with the incorporation of nonmagnetic In3+ in place of V3+. Samples with the formula, ZnV2-xInxO4 (x = 0.00, 0.25, 0.50, 1.00 and 1.50), were synthesized following an epoxide mediated gel method and characterized extensively. The monophasic cubic spinel structure was retained up to 50 mol% of vanadium with indium, beyond which phase separation took place. The occupancy of indium at the octahedral site and the near-linear increment of the cubic unit cell constant were confirmed from the successful structural refinements. The optical bandgap increased from 2.80 (ZnV2O4) to 3.06, 3.19, and 3.35 eV for x values of 0.25, 0.50, and 1.00 in ZnV2-xInxO4. ZnVInO4 exhibited Varespladib down to 2 K in both the field-dependent and temperature-dependent magnetic measurements. However, the magnetization values were lower than those of ZnV2O4. A frustration index of 42 was estimated for ZnVInO4. Samples containing magnetic Cr3+ and Fe3+ ions in place of V3+ were synthesized and characterized to compare and contrast the magnetic ions' influence. For both chromium and iron substituted samples, the optical bandgap was higher than that of ZnV2O4. ZnVCrO4 showed an antiferromagnetic ordering of spins with a TN of 12.3 K. In contrast, the randomization of Zn, V, and Fe among the available crystallographic sites increased the ferrimagnetic transition temperature (TF) to 31.9 K. ZnVInO4 catalyzed the photodegradation of rhodamine-6G under UV-vis radiation to a greater extent than ZnVCrO4 and ZnVFeO4.An intelligent nitric oxide gas-releasing nanoplatform based on CuS-nanoplates has been designed to overcome the heat endurance of tumor cells by the inhibition of HSP90 expression with the released NO gas in mitochondria and thereby realize enhanced PTT under mild temperature conditions.Herein, a Yb,TmNaYF4@NaLuF4/MnCsPbCl3 quasi-core/shell heterostructure is synthesized with the assistance of silica. The strong upconverting and downshifting emission of Mn2+ ions was observed in the nanocomposite with a quasi-core/shell structure. The FRET process further improves the energy utilization efficiency of PQDs for UCNPs, which depends on the quasi-core/shell heterostructure. link2 Considering the dual-model fluorescence emission behavior of Mn2+ ions, the stable Yb,TmNaYF4@NaLuF4/MnCsPbCl3 nanocomposite is used in anti-counterfeiting applications.Two isostructural MOFs with coordination of different halogen ions (Cl- and Br-), namely NNU-17 and NNU-18, were utilized to reveal the influence of different electron-withdrawing halogen anions on ECR performance. The performance difference between them mainly originates from the different abilities of adsorption and activation of CO2 by halogen ions.A minimalistic multicomponent cell mimetic is described consisting of a fibrillar network formed by the self-assembly of a low molecular weight compound (cytoskeleton-like) that is entrapped into a polymersome (membrane-like), namely a jelly-polymersome. A simple imidazole-appended hydrogelator is used in order to obtain a catalytic nanoreactor able to hydrolyze an ester within the compartment in its self-assembled state.Cholesterol is a crucial component of biological membranes and can interact with other membrane components through hydrogen bonding. link3 NMR spectroscopy has been used previously to investigate this bonding, however this study represents the first 17O NMR spectroscopy study of isotopically enriched cholesterol. We demonstrate the 17O chemical shift is dependent on hydrogen bonding, providing a novel method for the study of cholesterol in bilayers.
