A novel semi-rigid polycarboxylic acid-based framework ( AQNU-10 ) synthesized by tuning the temperature/solvent polarity (H 3 L as the light-harvesting ligand), exhibits exceptional CO 2 photoreduction (128.81 μmol g −1 CO).

Using a MD approach, the crystallization process of complex organic small-molecules was systematically investigated, and corresponding methods for visualization post-processing and interaction energy evaluation were developed.

Classical Nucleation Theory is dead. For over a century, it has been the lens through which scientists have considered the birth of crystals. As with many theories though, it existed...

Significant progress has been made in the research of stimuli-responsive materials in recent years. Among these, viologen-based functional coordination compounds have shown remarkable prominence due to the excellent redox properties...

Melt prilling, based on melt crystallization, is a crucial technique for mitigating the hygroscopicity of the green energetic oxidizer ammonium dinitramide (ADN). However, the inherent supercooling properties of ADN result...

Potassium dihydrogen phosphate crystals are key materials in high-power laser, nonlinear optics, and optoelectronic functional fields. Internal defects are core factors determining crystal optical homogeneity, laser damage threshold, and service...

Combining CuSO4 with bibX (X = CF3, Cl, Me, OMe) gives 2D layers with a unique building block and 3D sulfate-pillared frameworks, showing substituent-dependent adsorption properties.

The linkage of Zr6 clusters and an Ru(N^N)3 metalloligand produced a photosensitizing network with excellent photocatalytic activity for sulfide and amine oxidation.

Cadmium–porphyrin metal–organic frameworks combine the structural rigidity of the porphyrin core with the coordination flexibility of closed-shell Cd²⁺ centres, enabling diverse framework topologies and versatile applications. Here, we report a...

The incorporation of oxygen vacancy-rich BiVO4 coupled with CuO decoration significantly enhances photoelectrochemical performance.
