Hydrothermal crystallization pathways of amorphous ceric phosphate gels were found to be determined by the ammonia concentration in a reaction medium. This allows for highly selective hydrothermal synthesis of various finely crystalline ceric phosphates, including Ce(PO4)(HPO4)0.5(H2O)0.5, (NH4)2Ce(PO4)2(H2O), and previously unknown NH4Ce2(PO4)3. The structure of the latter compound was solved from powder X-ray diffraction data. It appeared to be isostructural to ammonium thorium phosphate, NH4Th2(PO4)3; in this crystal structure, large channels (5.07 Å~ 3.79 .) located along the c-axis are occupied by NH4+ ions.

Machine learning (ML) has become a powerful tool for accelerating the development of carbon-based supercapacitors;
however, most published models assume that a single predictive framework can describe both conventional
porous carbons and hybrid carbon electrodes. Here, we test this assumption using a comprehensive
benchmark dataset and an extended literature-curated dataset enriched with synthesis- and electrolyte-related
descriptors. Three ML algorithms ...

Cyanide containing wastewater can cause livestock death and reduce agricultural production and electrochemical reduction of cyanide (CNRR) is a promising way to eliminate its harm and turn waste into valuable products. However, the reaction mechanism and function of electrocatalysts for CNRR have not been fully understood yet. Herein we identify a two-dimensional (2D) conductive copper-organic ...

Colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals have emerged as promising materials for next-generation light-emitting diodes (LEDs) owing to their solution processability, tunable emission wavelengths, narrow emission linewidths, and high photoluminescence quantum yields. Among them, anisotropic nanocrystals, including one-dimensional nanorods (NRs) and two-dimensional nanoplatelets (NPLs), offer additional opportunities for controlling transition dipole moment orientation and light out-coupling efficiency. These ...

The use of hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (DESs) as extractants for metal ion separation is largely due to the ease of their preparation and the possibility of modifying them depending on the composition of the metal mixture to be separated. However, the most common approach to DES modification involves the replacement of the extractant, while ...

Two voluminous polymer silver(I) salts of perchlorinated dodecoborate clusters, {[(Me2CO)Ag(μ-Me2CO)2Ag(Me2CO)][μ-B12Cl12]}n (1) and {[DMFAg(μ-DMF)2AgDMF][μ-B12Cl12]}n (2) were synthesized. The 35Cl nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) spectroscopy supplemented with the X-ray diffraction data was applied for identifying and analyzing noncovalent interactions Cl···X in these salts. Whereas in X-ray diffraction, noncovalent interactions are associated with the presence of the shortened ...

Despite the well-established importance of chalcogen bonding in crystal engineering and supramolecular chemistry, experimental charge density data for TeII-centered chalcogen bonds have remained entirely absent, leaving the electronic nature of these interactions uncharacterized at the level of directly measured electron density. Here, we report the first high-resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD) study of TeII-centered chalcogen bonds, ...

Off-stoichiometric boron-doped chemically complex intermetallic alloys (CCIMAs) have recently emerged as a new avenue for overcoming the low temperature brittleness of ordered superlattices. However, their behavior at high temperatures remains unexplored. In this study, a novel (Ni39.6Co29.3Cr10Al15.8Ta3.3Nb2)98.5B1.5 CCIMA was prepared and its oxidation resistance over a wide temperature range (500 °C–950 °C) was studied. The ...

We report a high-performance implementation of the resolution-of-the-identity Hartree–Fock method that fully exploits the permutational symmetry of three-center electron repulsion integrals (ERI). The present implementation adopts a hybrid MPI+OpenMP parallelization strategy. Two different algorithmic approaches (with and without the pre-transformation of ERIs) are compared. A custom data layout introduced previously is employed. Designed to efficiently ...

The development of lead sulfide (PbS) quantum dot (QD) photodetectors for short-wave infrared (SWIR) applications has been fundamentally limited by the thermodynamic instability of large PbS QD facets, which leads to aggregation and epitaxial fusion. In this work, robust thermodynamic stabilization was achieved by introducing methylammonium chloride (MACl) in PbS QD surface passivation, as validated ...

We develop a new quantitative molecular theory of liquid-phase dipolar polymer gels. We model monomer units of the polymer network as a couple of charged sites separated by a fluctuating distance. For the first time, within the random phase approximation, we have obtained an analytical expression for the electrostatic free energy of the dipolar gel. ...

Two novel cerium(IV) phosphates were obtained: cerium(IV) hydroxidophosphate, Ce(OH)PO4, and cerium(IV) oxidophosphate, Cе2O(PO4)2, which were shown to complement the classes of isostructural compounds M(OH)PO4 and R2O(PO4)2, where M = Th, U and R = Th, U, Np, Zr. Cе2O(PO4)2 oxidophosphate is formed by elimination of H2O from the crystal structure of Ce(OH)PO4 during its thermal ...

Present study focuses on crystal violet adsorption by mineral halloysite and synthetic pecoraite nanoscrolls. Being scrolled in opposite directions, these two materials serve both as good adsorbents and model objects to understand the dye adsorption mechanism. Heat treatment of the nanoscrolls allowed us to track the adsorption process features by changing the structure and surface state of the particles. ...
