Summary: Large amplitude magnetization dynamics in elliptical permalloy nano-disks were studied, revealing the existence of two resonant modes. The higher frequency mode corresponds to the Kittel-like uniform ferromagnetic resonance mode, while the lower frequency mode, termed the cap mode, is localized near the ends of the ellipse. Nonlinear responses depend strongly on the equilibrium and field-dependent behavior of the magnetization.

Summary: We synthesized single crystals of Mn2-xZnxSb (0 <= x <= 1) and studied their magnetic and electronic transport properties. This material system exhibits rich magnetic phases that can be tuned with temperature and Zn composition. Additionally, we discovered two groups of samples with distinct magnetic and electronic properties, separated by a critical Zn composition of x = 0.6. The Zn-less samples are metallic and exhibit a resistivity jump at the magnetic ordering temperature, while the Zn-rich samples lose their metallic behavior and show a metal-to-insulator transition-like feature that can be tuned by a magnetic field. Our findings establish Mn2-xZnxSb as a promising material platform for studying the interesting transport properties in 2D magnets, which is currently a topic of broad interest.

Summary: This paper investigates the structural, magnetic, and optoelectronic properties of Cd0.75TM0.25S (TM = Os and Ir) alloys with a zinc-blende structure. The alloys were found to be stable and synthesizable, with Cd0.75Os0.25S exhibiting half-metallic behavior and Cd0.75Ir0.25S exhibiting ferromagnetic half-semiconductor behavior. It was also discovered that Cd0.75TM0.25S alloys can be ferromagnetic semiconductors with the appropriate modifications, making them potentially useful for spintronic devices.

Summary: The discovery of air-stable 2D metallic 1T-CrTe2 ultrathin crystals with long-range ferromagnetic ordering through chemical vapor deposition has provided insights into the change of magnetic properties due to weakening of Coulomb screening in the two-dimensional limit. The study showed a monotonic increase of Curie temperature with decreasing thickness, and a shift of the easy axis from in-plane to out-of-plane as thickness is reduced. The robust anomalous Hall effect confirmed the ferromagnetic ordering in these materials, which is rarely observed in other layered 2D materials grown by chemical vapor deposition.

Summary: Transition-metal phthalocyanine molecules are important in spintronics device development due to their diverse bonding and intrinsic magnetism, which is influenced by quantum fluctuations at the metal-molecule interface. In this study, the dynamical screening effects in phthalocyanine molecules with various transition-metal ions in contact with Cu(111) surface were systematically investigated. The results show strong charge and spin fluctuations due to orbital-dependent hybridization and electron correlation, leading to significant reduction or suppression of spin moments. This highlights the importance of quantum fluctuations in metal-contacted molecular devices.

Summary: The use of functionalized scaffolds incorporated with superparamagnetic nanoparticles and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injection into a magnetic scaffold resulted in increased bone regeneration in a large bone defect in sheep metatarsus. The magnetic field generated by implanted magnets allowed the capture of the injected nanoparticles, forming a VEGF gradient in the scaffold's porosity. Histomorphometric measurements showed improved bone growth and bone-to-implant contact, while atomic force microscopy (AFM) analysis revealed similar nanomechanical behavior of the regenerated tissue to the magnetic field distribution. This study demonstrates the potential of magnetic technologies combined with functionalized scaffolds to enhance bone formation and improve bone/scaffold interaction.

Summary: Novel flat-optics scheme based on nanogrooved ultra-thin MoS2 layers grown on large area nanopatterned templates is proposed to enhance photon absorption capability of 2D transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) layers. By tailoring illumination conditions, effective tuning of photonic anomalies across the absorption band of relevant dye molecules is achieved. Resonant enhancement of methylene blue (MB) molecules photodissociation rate, well above a factor of 2, is demonstrated due to strong photonic in-plane confinement. These results highlight the potential of flat-optics photon harvesting schemes in boosting photoconversion efficiency in large-scale hybrid 2D-TMD/polymer layers.

Summary: Molecular spins are potential building blocks for future quantum technologies due to the flexibility provided by chemistry. However, their weak interaction with external stimuli makes it difficult to access their state at the single-molecule level. A solution using the chirality-induced spin selectivity effect on electron transfer processes is envisioned, which enables initialization, manipulation, and single-spin readout of molecular qubits and qudits even at relatively high temperatures.

Summary: In this study, the photoexcitation of ultrathin films of [FeII((3, 5-(CH3)2Pz)3BH)2] (Pz = pyrazolyl) adsorbed on a special substrate was investigated. The anomalous light-induced spin-state switching was observed for sub-monolayer coverage, while the well-known light-induced excited spin-state trapping effect was recovered for higher coverages. The combination of continuous light excitation and thermal cycling revealed light-induced thermal hysteresis for thicker films and extended thermal conversion over a large temperature range for sub-monolayer coverage. Mechanoelastic simulations showed opposite behaviors in different layers of the films due to intermolecular interactions.

Summary: Large area highly corrugated and faceted nanoripples are formed on calcite (10.4) faces in a self-organized fashion through defocused ion beam sputtering. The calcite ripples are defined by facets with highly kinked (11.0) and (21.12) terminations as revealed by high resolution atomic force microscopy (AFM) imaging. In situ AFM imaging during exposure to PbCl2 aqueous solution shows that the nanostructured calcite surface enhances Pb uptake.

Summary: We propose an approach based on DeepSet technology for supervised classification and regression of superconductive materials. The method takes the chemical constituents as input, avoiding artefacts from ordering in the list. Successful performance is achieved in classifying superconducting materials and quantifying their critical temperature. Using the trained neural network, we searched the International Mineralogical Association list and identified three superconducting candidates, confirming superconductivity in the synthetic analogue of michenerite and observing it for the first time in monchetundraite with critical temperatures in good agreement with theory predictions. This marks the first certified superconducting material identified through artificial intelligence methodologies.

Summary: In this paper, the capability to establish spin-polarized currents in doped SrTiO3 (STO) is demonstrated. The study is based on the investigation of charge and spin transport in STO layers doped by the reversible electromigration of oxygen atoms. The results show that the metallic conductivity observed at temperatures <200-250 K corresponds to the thermodynamically doped STO with bad metal behavior, making it a valuable candidate for innovative spintronic devices.

Summary: Fostered by advancements in photonic technologies, the need for all-optical dynamic control on complex photonic elements is increasing, particularly in integrated photonics and flat-optics. This study focuses on an anisotropic two-dimensional bull's eye cavity within an optically-active polymeric film. By modulating the orientation of optically-induced birefringence on the surface, dynamic control of resonant mode energies can be achieved. The proposed approach opens up new pathways for controlling surface modes in hybrid organic-inorganic devices.

Summary: This study investigates the contribution of the orbital magnetic moment to magnetization in a potassium hexacyanoferrate(III) sample using X-ray magnetic circular dichroism and molecular multiconfigurational ab initio calculations. The results demonstrate a significant proportion of the total magnetization attributed to the orbital magnetic moment, which is exceptional for 3d transition metal ions. The study also analyzes the impact of crystal field strength and distortion, pi back-bonding, spin-orbit coupling, and external magnetic induction on the spin and orbital magnetic anisotropies, providing a deeper understanding of these phenomena.

Summary: This study presents the design and synthesis of sulfated disaccharide inhibitors based on IdoA(2S)-GlcNS(6S), which showed potent inhibition of Sulf-2. The results suggest that IdoA(2S)-GlcNS(6S) is the shortest fragment size required for effective inhibition of Sulfs, and a trisulfated disaccharide is identified as the minimal fragment size of heparan sulfate for effective endosulfatase inhibition.

Summary: The self-adaptability of galvanostatic electrolysis was found to be helpful in a multistage chemo- and diastereoselective electrochemically promoted cyclodimerization of chalcones. Through a series of reductive events, densely functionalized cyclopentanes with five contiguous stereocenters were obtained (25 examples, yields up to 95%, dr values up to >20:1). Further experimental and electrochemical investigations indicated the crucial role of dynamic kinetic resolution of the aldol intermediate in the reaction mechanism.
