The dependence of the photoinduced bending behavior of diarylethene crystals on the ultraviolet light irradiation wavelength was investigated. When irradiated with 365 nm light, a crystal of 1,2-bis(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-thiazolyl)perfluorocyclopentene (1a) bends toward the incident light. On the other hand, when irradiated with 380 nm light, the crystal of 1a first bends away from the light source and then bends toward the incident light. To explain this bending behavior, we propose a comprehensive mechanism based on the depth of the photochromic reaction from the crystal surface. This mechanism is successfully supported by the change of cell parameters associated with the photochromic reaction upon irradiation with 380 nm light, which was determined by in situ X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Correlating Reaction Dynamics and Size Change during the Photomechanical Transformation of 9-Methylanthracene Single Crystals

Kohei Morimoto, Daichi Kitagawa, Fei Tong, Kevin Chalek, Leonard J. Mueller, Christopher J. Bardeen, Seiya Kobatake

Summary: High-quality single crystals of 9-methylanthracene exhibit more homogeneous reaction kinetics compared to polycrystalline samples, resulting in a linear expansion correlated with reaction progress. This class of solid-state phase change material shows clear linear expansion during 100% photoconversion, demonstrating potential for actuation applications.

Fabrication of Hyperbranched Photomechanical Crystals Composed of a Photochromic Diarylethene

Mami Isobe, Daichi Kitagawa, Seiya Kobatake

Summary: In this study, hyperbranched hollow crystals of 1,2-bis(2,5-dimethyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene were fabricated on a concave surface of a spherical glass substrate using sublimation. The number of branched structures in the hollow crystals was dependent on the substrate curvature. Compared to the sublimation process on a flat glass substrate, two distinct thin film domains were formed on the spherical glass substrate, and under high relative humidity conditions, the boundaries between these domains gradually moved from the center to the edge, resulting in the dense production of hyperbranched hollow crystals on the entire surface of the substrate.

Patterning submicron photomechanical features into single diarylethene crystals using electron beam lithography

Wangxiang Li, Daichi Kitagawa, Seiya Kobatake, Elena Bekyarova, Christopher J. Bardeen

Summary: This work demonstrates the use of electron beam lithography to create sub-micron structural features on single photomechanical crystals. The height increase of these features can be reversed and undergo multiple cycles, and the changes are strong enough to rupture a graphene sheet placed on top of the crystals. A dynamic extrusion model is proposed to explain the amplification of molecular-level photomechanical changes through nanoscale features.

Insights into the multi-functional lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate additive in boosting the Li-ion reaction kinetics for Li3VO4 anodes

Miaomiao Zhang, Cunyuan Pei, Qiqi Xiang, Lintao Liu, Zhongxu Dai, Huijuan Ma, Shibing Ni

Summary: The design of a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) plays a crucial role in improving the electrochemical performance of anode materials. In this study, lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate (LiDFOB) is used as an electrolyte additive to form a protective SEI film on Li3VO4 (LVO) anodes. The addition of LiDFOB results in a dense, uniform, stable, and LiF-richer SEI, which enhances the Li-ion storage kinetics. The generated SEI also prevents further decomposition of the electrolyte and maintains the morphology of LVO anodes during charge/discharge processes. This work demonstrates the effectiveness of LiDFOB as a multi-functional additive for LiPF6 electrolytes and provides insights into SEI construction for high-performance LVO anodes.

ClO-driven degradation of graphene oxide: new insights from DFT calculations

S. L. Romo-Avila, D. Marquez-Ruiz, R. A. Guirado-Lopez

Summary: In this study, we used density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the interaction between model graphene oxide (GO) nanostructures and chlorine monoxide ClO. We aimed to understand the role of this highly oxidizing species in breaking C-C bonds and forming significant holes on GO sheets. Our results showed that C-C bonds in a single graphene oxide sheet can be broken through a simple mechanism involving the dissociation of two chemically attached ClO molecules. The formation of carbonyl groups and holes on the GO surface was also observed. This study provides important insights into the degradation of carbon nanotubes and the stability of GO during the myeloperoxidase (MPO) catalytic cycle.

Composition dependence of X-ray stability and degradation mechanisms at lead halide perovskite single crystal surfaces

Alberto Garcia-Fernandez, Birgit Kammlander, Stefania Riva, Hakan Rensmo, Ute B. Cappel

Summary: In this study, the X-ray stability of five different lead halide perovskite compositions (MAPbI3, MAPbCl3, MAPbBr3, FAPbBr3, CsPbBr3) was investigated using photoelectron spectroscopy. Different degradation mechanisms and resistance to X-ray were observed depending on the crystal composition. Overall, perovskite compositions based on the MA+ cation were found to be less stable than those based on FA+ or Cs+. Metallic lead formation was most easily observed in the chloride perovskite, followed by bromide, and very little in MAPbI3. Multiple degradation processes were identified for the bromide compositions, including ion migration, formation of volatile and solid products, as well as metallic lead. CsBr was formed as a solid degradation product on the surface of CsPbBr3.

Summary: The stability of La1/3Sr2/3Fe1-xMnxO3-delta, a perovskite-type oxide, under reducing conditions is dependent on the manganese content. Increasing the manganese content leads to a decrease in stability. The behavior of iron and manganese in the oxide shows distinct differences, which can be attributed to the difference in the enthalpy of oxidation reactions. Additionally, the change in the La/Sr ratio affects the concentration of iron and manganese ions.
