Summary: Multiple chiroptical transitions and inversions were observed in side-chain azobenzene polymers, with unexpected macromolecular-to-supramolecular chirality transition and inversion. Exciton-coupling induced multiple chiroptical inversions were also observed, driven by H- to J-aggregation transition. Furthermore, the odd-even effect was found to regulate the supramolecular helical orientations in side-chain azobenzene polymer assemblies.

Summary: This study introduces a scheme to solve the Hamiltonian in the interacting boson-fermion model in terms of the SU(3) coupling basis, and examines the effects of an odd particle on shape phase transitions (SPTs) in odd-A nuclei. The results suggest that SPTs may occur in odd-even systems and the influence of an odd particle can strengthen the transition process.

Summary: The odd-even effect in various properties of n-alkanes is observed in a molecular dynamics simulation study on n-alkane systems ranging from propane to octane. The study shows an odd-even alternation in melting point, density, intramolecular conformational ordering, translational and rotational motion, with heptane exhibiting anomalous behavior for all except conformational ordering.

Summary: The pairing phase transition in an odd-even hot-rotating Zn-69 nucleus was investigated using reported nuclear level density (NLD) data. Experimental NLDs were compared with those obtained from microscopic calculations, and it was found that the experimental NLDs can be well described by the exact pairing plus independent-particle model at finite temperature (EP+IPM). Additionally, the S-shaped heat capacity observed in the EP+IPM calculations was explained by the deformation-induced pairing correlation.

Summary: This contribution reports a significant odd-even effect in the structural characteristics and magnetic properties of four new hybrid compounds. The compounds with an even number of carbon atoms display a two-dimensional structure and antiferromagnetic interactions, while those with an odd number of carbon atoms have a zero-dimensional structure and weaker antiferromagnetic interactions.

Summary: The rapid development of high-performance computing and high-power electronics has increased the demand for highly thermal conductive polymers. Through studying the thermal conductivity of epoxy resins, the odd-even effects of the ethylene linker length on liquid crystalline order, mass density, and thermal conductivity were discovered. Controlling the linker length is an effective way to design thermally conductive polymers.

Summary: The study investigates the influence of substrate type (gold or silver) and surface roughness on the odd-even effect in n-alkanethiolate self-assembled monolayers using vibrational sum-frequency generation spectroscopy. An inverted odd-even effect is observed for SAMs on silver substrates compared to those on gold substrates. The analysis of the SFG spectra provides insights into the cant angle and molecular twist dependence of interfacial group orientation. The results suggest that metal substrate roughness affects the odd-even methyl orientation anisotropy.

Summary: The study utilized molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) to grow MnBi2Te4 films of various thicknesses and observed a nonsquare hysteresis loop in films with a thickness greater than 2 septuple layers (SL). The hysteresis loop was found to consist of two anomalous Hall (AH) components, one from the dominant MnBi2Te4 phase and the other from the minor Mn-doped Bi2Te3 phase. The AH component extracted from the MnBi2Te4 phase exhibited clear even-odd layer-dependent behavior.

Summary: The discovery of the multiple H-T phase diagram of CeRh2As2 provides a new route for designing topological superconductors. Through a thorough study on the effect of the Coulomb interaction and the phase diagrams of locally noncen-trosymmetric superconductors, we reveal an even-odd parity transition and the enhancement of the parity transition field in strongly correlated superconductors, resolving an issue in CeRh2As2.

Summary: By utilizing the Bargmann representation of composite boson angular momentum components, the model's Hamiltonian displays three degenerate minima at critical angular momentum. The spectra of the deepest wells reflect a chiral-like structure, and wobbling frequencies can be used to quantitatively describe wobbling properties.

Summary: This paper introduces carrierless amplitude and phase (CAP) as a high spectral efficiency modulation scheme in visible light communication (VLC) systems. The possibility of designing perfect DC-balanced PSFs is discussed, and the performance of odd-dimensional and even-dimensional PSFs is compared through simulations and experiments.

Summary: This study investigates the role of solvent polarity on the roughness-dependency of wetting behavior of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) formed on different surface morphology of Ag-based substrate. The results show that the roughness-dependent behavior of SAMs is not only determined by substrate roughness, but also by the polarity of the probing liquid.

Summary: Utilizing polar reflective magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy, it is demonstrated that few-layered MnBi2Te4 displays an evident odd-even layer-number effect, impacting the coercivity and spin-flop transition. Moreover, an anomalous magnetic hysteresis loop is observed in even-number septuple-layered MnBi2Te4, potentially due to thickness-independent surface-related magnetization. The application of a linear-chain model helps to elucidate the spin-flop field effect and determine the magnetic states evolution when subjected to an external magnetic field.

Summary: In this study, the hybridization between light and matter is investigated for cavity control over quantum materials. It is found that specific quantum fluctuations of the matter system play a crucial role in achieving entanglement between light and matter, and in turn, light-matter entanglement is essential for modifying electronic properties by the cavity. The hypothesis is proposed that quantum fluctuations of matter operators coupled to cavity modes are a general requirement for light-matter entanglement in the ground state.

Summary: This study synthesized a thermotropic hydrogen bond liquid crystal by mixing chlorobenzoic acid and hexyloxybenzoic acid, and confirmed the formation of hydrogen bonds between the precursors through FTIR studies. The liquid crystal exhibited a nematic phase with long thermal range, and its transition temperatures and enthalpy values were determined through DSC thermogram. Two types of relaxations, type 1 and type 2, were identified and studied extensively using dielectric spectroscopy. The study also observed the temperature response of the liquid crystal to resistance, with both positive and negative slopes identified in thermos-resistive plots.
