Summary: Doubly alkylene bridged 6,13-diphenylpentacene and analogously bridged azapentacenes have been prepared and are shown to be persistent. These doubly bridged azapentacenes exhibit superior photochemical, oxidative, and thermal stabilities compared to azapentacenes protected by bis(TIPS-ethynyl) substituents. Clipping an azaacene into a large ring is a viable complement in stabilization.

Summary: In an effort to kinetically stabilize blue-emissive anthracenes, 9,10-diaryl substituted derivatives were tested for their photochemical and photooxidative persistence. A major breakthrough was achieved with a new bis-meta-terphenylyl substituted anthracene, which showed superior light fastness compared to industrially relevant 9,10-biarylated anthracenes. The key factor in improving stabilization was steric shielding of the anthracene core, and intramolecular ring closure via Yamamoto coupling produced a doubly bridged anthracene that acted as a self-encapsulated sky-blue emitter resistant to photodegradation.

Summary: Recently developed high-mobility 2,6-diphenylanthracene (2,6-DPA) facilitates the growth and fabrication of high-performance direct X-ray detectors (DXDs). Compared to traditional organic semiconducting crystals, 2,6-DPA exhibits low dark current density and large photoconductive gain, resulting in a record-breaking limit-of-detection and high sensitivity. 2,6-DPA is an ideal active material for DXDs and has potential for further optoelectronic applications.

Summary: Boron nitride (BN) layers with sp(2) bonding were grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition on AlN underlayers, showing ordered rhombohedral (rBN) and partially ordered turbostratic (tBN) structures. The optical signature of tBN at 5.45eV appears between the two recombination bands typical of rBN at 5.35eV (strong intensity) and 5.55eV (weaker intensity), distinguishing from the hBN and bBN.

Summary: This study reveals the local cation configuration of Mn-based Li-rich layered oxides and investigates its influence on the redox reactions. The existence of Li2MnO3 crystal domain in all materials is confirmed using neutron and synchrotron X-ray pair distribution function combined with Monte Carlo simulation. The results show a LiMn6 unit, where each Li atom in the TM layer is surrounded by six Mn atoms with no Ni atom. This work provides insights for the investigation of cation configuration in oxide materials and sheds light on the understanding of the local structure-activity relationship.

Summary: beta-B is an intriguing solid with a complex crystal structure based on B-12 clusters and intrinsic structural defects. It is the only elemental semiconductor that exhibits self-compensation property during atom doping. Various physical properties of beta-B change discontinuously around 550K, possibly due to defect diffusion. We previously found a volume expansion of about 1.5% above this temperature, and it can be reversed by light irradiation at room temperature.

Summary: Bis-and tris-pyridyl borate ligands with pyridyl donor arms, a methylated boron cap, and a fluorine-lined coordination pocket have been synthesized and used in coinage metal chemistry. These ligands allowed for the isolation of group 11 metal-ethylene complexes, with gold complexes showing the largest coordination-induced upfield shifts of the ethylene 13C resonance. Solid-state structures of these complexes revealed the rare K2 coordination mode instead of the typical K3 coordination mode. Computational analyses indicated the favored K2 coordination mode and the strong interaction between gold(I) and ethylene.

Summary: The properties of silver nanoparticles synthesized in situ within commercial PEDOT:PSS formulations were systematically investigated. The reagent ratio was found to be the only parameter affecting the properties of the nanoparticles. The stabilization of the nanoparticles occurred mainly in PEDOT:PSS domains with low silver content, while in domains with high silver content, the particles formed and perturbed the absorption of the conjugated polymer. Furthermore, an optimized film morphology was used to fabricate a water-processable anode.

Summary: The fluorescence imaging technique is widely used in natural and life sciences, but current commercial biomarkers have several disadvantages. In this study, two new fluorescent molecular rotors (SB-B2 and SB-B23) derived from Boron Schiff bases (BOSCHIBAs) were synthesized and characterized. The crystal structure of SB-B23 showed a binuclear complex. Both compounds exhibited viscochromic and thermochromic properties. These low cytotoxicity BOSCHIBAs showed selective fluorescent staining of the endoplasmic reticulum in HeLa cells and HUVECs.
