A Facile, One-Step Synthesis for Core–Shell Perovskite Materials via Molten Salt
Core–shell La 0.6 Sr 0.4 Co 0.2 Fe 0.8 O 3 (LSCF)–La 0.8 Sr 0.2 MnO 3 (LSM) heterostructure crystalline materials have been synthesized in a simple, one-step feeding method via a KNO 3 molten salt solvent. Two-phase perovskite composites can be synthesized in times as short as 10 minutes and is demonstrated for the first time in a molten salt. Further, a combination of X-ray diffraction and S/TEM energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy has been utilized to confirm the formation of an LSM shell on LSCF cores in all samples when adjusting dwell time, core size, weight ratio between core and shell precursors, and weight ratio of powder to salt. Specifically, decreasing the LSCF core size increases core–shell yield. Smaller cores introduce a greater density of facets on the crystal surface and provide more favorable sites for LSM heterogeneous nucleation.

Facile Oxidation of Ce(III) to Ce(IV) Using Cu(I) Salts
The synthesis, luminescence, and electrochemical properties of the Ce(III) compound, [(C 5 Me 5 )2(2,6- i Pr 2 C 6 H 3 O)Ce(THF)], 1, were investigated. Based on the electrochemical data, treatment of 1 with CuX (X = Cl, Br, I) results in the formation of the corresponding Ce(IV) complexes, [(C 5 Me 5 ) 2 (2,6- i Pr 2 C 6 H 3 O)Ce(X)]. Each complex has been characterized using NMR, IR, and UV−vis spectroscopy as well as structurally determined using X-ray crystallography. Additionally, the treatment of [(C 5 Me 5 ) 2 (2,6- i Pr 2 C 6 H 3 O)Ce(Br)] with AgF results in the formation of the putative [(C 5 Me 5 ) 2 (2,6- i Pr 2 C 6 H 3 O)Ce(F)]. Furthermore, the electronic structure of these Ce(IV)−X complexes was investigated by bond analyses and the Ce(IV)−F moiety using quantum chemistry NMR calculations.

Facile Directed Assembly of Hollow Polymer Nanocapsules within Spontaneously Formed Catanionic Surfactant Vesicles
Surfactant vesicles containing monomers in the interior of the bilayer were used to template hollow polymer nanocapsules. This study investigated the formation of surfactant/monomer assemblies by two loading methods, concurrent loading and diffusion loading. The assembly process and the resulting aggregates were investigated with dynamic light scattering, small angle neutron scattering, and small-angle X-ray scattering. Acrylic monomers formed vesicles with a mixture of cationic and anionic surfactants in a broad range of surfactant ratios. Regions with predominant formation of vesicles were broader for compositions containing acrylic monomers compared with blank surfactants. This observation supports the stabilization of the vesicular structure by acrylic monomers. Diffusion loading produced monomer-loaded vesicles unless vesicles were composed from surfactants at the ratios close to the boundary of a vesicular phase region on a phase diagram. Both concurrent-loaded and diffusion-loaded surfactant/monomer vesicles produced hollow polymer nanocapsules upon the polymerization of monomers in the bilayer followed by removal of surfactant scaffolds.

Rapid, facile synthesis of conjugated polymer zwitterions in ionic liquids
Ionic liquids (ILs) were utilized for the rapid air-stable Suzuki polymerization of polar zwitterionic thiophene monomers, precluding the need for volatile organic solvents, phosphine ligands and phase transfer catalysts typically used in conjugated polymer synthesis.

Facile one-pot synthesis of PdM (M = Ag, Ni, Cu, Y) nanowires for use in mixed matrix membranes for efficient hydrogen separation
A general synthesis method is demonstrated for producing PdM (M= Ag, Cu, Ni, and Y) nanowire networks. As a prototypical application, these nanowires are incorporated into polybenzimidazole to create mixed matrix membranes for H 2 /CO 2 separation.

The Search for Gluonic Degrees of Freedom in QCD using the GlueX Facility at Jefferson Lab
The search for gluonic degrees of freedom in mesons is an experimental challenge. The most promising approach is to look for mesons with exotic quantum numbers that can not be described by quark degrees of freedom only. The GlueX experiment at Jefferson Lab in Hall-D, currently under construction, will search for such hybrid mesons with exotic quantum numbers by scattering a linearly polarized high energetic photon beam off a liquid hydrogen target. An amplitude analysis will be employed to search for such resonances in the data and determine their quantum numbers.
