Revealing core-valence interactions in solution with femtosecond X-ray pump X-ray probe spectroscopy

Abstract Femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy using ultrafast optical and infrared pulses has become an essential tool to discover and understand complex electronic and structural dynamics in solvated molecular, biological, and material systems. Here we report the experimental realization of an ultrafast two-color X-ray pump X-ray probe transient absorption experiment performed in solution. A 10 fs X-ray pump pulse creates a localized excitation by removing a 1 s electron from an Fe atom in solvated ferro- and ferricyanide complexes. Following the ensuing Auger–Meitner cascade, the second X-ray pulse probes the Fe 1 s → 3 p transitions in resultant novel core-excited electronic states. Careful comparison of the experimental spectra with theory, extracts +2 eV shifts in transition energies per valence hole, providing insight into correlated interactions of valence 3 d with 3 p and deeper-lying electrons. Such information is essential for accurate modeling and predictive synthesis of transition metal complexes relevant for applications ranging from catalysis to information storage technology. This study demonstrates the experimental realization of the scientific opportunities possible with the continued development of multicolor multi-pulse X-ray spectroscopy to study electronic correlations in complex condensed phase systems.

Hydrophobic Metal–Organic Frameworks Enable Superior High-Pressure Ammonia Storage through Geometric Design

Hydrophobic metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are typically overlooked for ammonia storage due to weak host–guest interactions. Here, we demonstrate that four structurally analogous aluminum-based MOFs exhibit a counterintuitive behavior whereby framework geometry, rather than ligand hydrophilicity, determines high-pressure NH 3 adsorption performance. The hydrophobic CAU-23 achieved an exceptional capacity matching hydrophilic analogs despite its poor low-pressure uptake. This pressure-dependent enhancement stems from the unique 4-cis-4-trans geometry of CAU-23 compared to the purely cis arrangement of MIL-160 and KMF-1 and the alternating cis-trans configuration of MOF-303. Critically, CAU-23 retained 95% capacity over three high-pressure cycles, whereas hydrophilic MOFs suffered 39–46% irreversible losses due to strong NH 3 -framework interactions that compromise structural integrity. Grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations reveal that high pressure enables NH 3 clustering through intermolecular hydrogen bonding, bypassing the need for strong host–guest interactions. High-pressure powder X-ray diffraction measurements confirm the exceptional mechanical resilience of CAU-23, showing complete structural recovery upon decompression despite exhibiting the highest pressure sensitivity among the studied MOFs. An extended analog, HE-CAU-23, validates this design principle with further enhanced capacity. Furthermore, these findings reveal a paradigm shift toward hydrophobic MOFs with optimized geometry for high-performance and regenerable gas storage applications.

Topochemical Deintercalation of Li from Layered LiNiB: toward 2D MBene

The pursuit of two-dimensional (2D) borides, MBenes, has proven to be challenging, not the least because of the lack of a suitable precursor prone to the deintercalation. Here, we studied room-temperature topochemical deintercalation of lithium from the layered polymorphs of the LiNiB compound with a considerable amount of Li stored in between [NiB] layers (33 at. % Li). Deintercalation of Li leads to novel metastable borides (Li~ 0.5 NiB) with unique crystal structures. Partial removal of Li is accomplished by exposing the parent phases to air, water, or dilute HCl under ambient conditions. Scanning transmission electron microscopy and solid-state 7 Li and 11 B NMR spectroscopy, combined with X-ray pair distribution function (PDF) analysis and DFT calculations, were utilized to elucidate the novel structures of Li~ 0.5 NiB and the mechanism of Li-deintercalation. We have shown that the deintercalation of Li proceeds via a “zip-lock” mechanism, leading to the condensation of single [NiB] layers into double or triple layers bound via covalent bonds, resulting in structural fragments with Li[NiB] 2 and Li[NiB] 3 compositions. The crystal structure of Li~ 0.5 NiB is best described as an intergrowth of the ordered single [NiB], double [NiB] 2 , or triple [NiB] 3 layers alternating with single Li layers; this explains its structural complexity. Here, the formation of double or triple [NiB] layers induces a change in the magnetic behavior from temperatureindependent paramagnets in the parent LiNiB compounds to the spin-glassiness in the deintercalated Li~ 0.5 NiB counterparts. LiNiB compounds showcase the potential to access a plethora of unique materials, including 2D MBenes (NiB).

Mechanism of ion pairing–induced co-ion penetration into the stern layer

In classical electric double layer (EDL) theory, co-ions—ions carrying the same charge as the electrode—are assumed to be excluded from the Stern layer because of electrostatic repulsion. However, ion pairing with adsorbed counterions may enable co-ions to access the EDL, a phenomenon that remains underexplored. Key questions therefore remain unresolved, including how deeply co-ions penetrate, how ion-specific properties govern them, and how ion pairing within the EDL differs from bulk solution. Here, in this study, we employ molecular dynamics simulations combined with well-tempered metadynamics to quantify co-ion penetration and ion-pairing thermodynamics at positively charged Mg-Al layered double hydroxide interfaces (σ = +20.6 μC/cm 2 ) in aqueous chloride electrolytes across 0.005–3 M range. We reveal a concentration-driven crossover: at dilute conditions, counterion–co-ion contact ion pairing (CIP) is thermodynamically unfavorable or only weakly favorable (ΔG CIP = +0.12 kcal/mol for Li + to −0.42 kcal/mol for K + ), leading to co-ion exclusion. As concentration increases (≥0.5 M), enhanced screening reduces surface repulsion and stabilizes CIP thermodynamics (ΔG CIP = −0.89 kcal/mol for Li + to −1.05 kcal/mol for K + at 3 M), enabling monovalent co-ions to penetrate the Stern layer following the hydration hierarchy K + > Na + > Li + , while divalent co-ions (Mg 2+ , Ca 2+ ) remain in the diffuse layer, forming only solvent-separated pairs. Comparison with bulk solution shows interfacial ion pairing is suppressed at low concentrations but converges to bulk-like thermodynamics at high concentrations, indicating surface effects vanish under strong screening. These results establish a quantitative framework linking ion-pairing thermodynamics to co-ion penetration and providing strategies to design electrochemical interfaces.

Improving tubular protonic ceramic fuel cell performance by compensating Ba evaporation via a Ba-excess optimized proton conducting electrolyte synthesis strategy

Protonic ceramic fuel cells (PCFCs) are emerging as a promising technology for reduced temperature ceramic energy conversion devices. The BaCe 0.4 Zr 0.4 Y 0.1 Yb 0.1 O 3–δ (BCZYYb4411) electrolyte is notable for its high proton conductivity. However, the tendency of barium to volatilize in BCZYYb4411 during high-temperature sintering compromises its chemical stability and performance. This study investigates the effects of intentionally incorporating excess barium into BCZYYb4411, formulated as Ba 1+x Ce 0.4 Zr 0.4 Y0.1Yb 0.1 O 3–δ (where x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3), with the aim of compensating barium evaporation and enhancing the physical and chemical properties. We find that excess barium results in a greater shrinkage rate, facilitating a denser electrolyte structure. This barium-enriched electrolyte demonstrates improved electrochemical performance by effectively counteracting the deleterious effects of barium evaporation. Applying this strategy to tubular PCFCs, we achieved a peak power density of 480 mW•cm –2 at 600 °C. This unique approach provides a simple, tunable, and easy-to-implement processing modification to achieve high-performance tubular PCFC.

Pressure-induced superconductivity in the hydrogen-rich pseudobinary CaB - H n compounds

Here, the crystal structures of CaB – Hn compounds with n = 1 – 12 in a pressure range of 50–300 GPa were studied using the genetic algorithm method and first-principles density-function theory calculations. Stable structures with stoichiometry of CaB H 6 and CaB H 7 were predicted in different pressure range. BH 4 , BH 5 , and BH 6 units were found to be the main motifs in these compounds. Moreover, metastable Imm2 CaB H 7 is dynamically stable above 180 GPa, with the formation of tetrahedral BH 4 unit surrounded by Ca atom and H 3 unit. Electron-phonon coupling (EPC) calculations reveal that the superconducting properties are closely related to the strong hydrogen-boron bonding of the BH 4 unit in Imm2, and T c can reach ~200 K at 200 GPa. As the major units, BH 4 , BH 5 , and BH 6 units exist in the Imm2, P 2 , and P2 1 /m phases of CaB H 7 at 300 GPa, respectively; the corresponding EPC parameter λ decreases with the increase of hydrogen content in CaB H 7 .

Tuning the Radius Ratio to Enhance Thermoelectric Properties in the Zintl Compounds AM 2 Sb 2 (A = Ba, Sr; M = Zn, Cd)

Five novel Zintl phase solid solutions in the Ba 1–x Sr x Zn 2–y Cd y Sb 2 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.13(1); 0 ≤ y ≤ 0.32(2)) system were successfully synthesized by the molten Pb metal-flux method, and the powder X-ray diffraction and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses proved that all five title compounds adopted the BaCu 2 S 2 -type phase having the orthorhombic Pnma space group (Z = 4, Pearson code oP20) with five crystallographically independent atomic sites. The previously studied BaCu 2 S 2 -type antimonides demonstrated a limited tolerance for doping in contrast to the CaAl 2 Si 2 -type antimonides. To understand the relatively narrower phase width and limited dopability of the title BaCu 2 S 2 -type phase than the CaAl 2 Si 2 -type phase in the overall Ba 1–x Sr x Zn 2–y Cd y Sb 2 system, the radius ratio of cations and anionic elements r + /r – for two structure types were thoroughly investigated. For the first time, the r + /r – ratio was identified as a critical factor for the phase selectivity: (1) r + /r – > 1 favored the BaCu 2 S 2 -type phase, and (2) r + /r – < 1 favored the CaAl 2 Si 2 -type phase. Further, we also revealed the structural transformation mechanism from the more widely observed CaAl 2 Si 2 -type phase to the title BaCu 2 S 2 -type phase as the relatively larger cationic elements were introduced to the system. A series of DFT calculations using the three hypothetical models indicated that a resonance peak near EF in the density of states curves was descended from the relatively flat band structure at several special symmetry points rationalizing the enhanced Seebeck coefficients of Ba 0.94(1) Sr 0.06 Zn 1.86(3) Cd 0.14 Sb 2 and Ba 0.96(1) Sr 0.04 Zn 1.68(2) Cd 0.32 Sb 2 . Electron localization function analysis rationalized the correlation between the polarity change of anionic Zn/Cd–Sb bonds and the charge carrier mobility on the anionic frameworks. Temperature-dependent thermoelectric properties were studied for the four title compounds, and the results proved that the Sr and Cd doping in the title Ba 1–x Sr x Zn 2–y Cd y Sb 2 system successfully enhanced the ZT values through the increased Seebeck coefficients and the reduced total thermal conductivities.

van der Waals Epitaxy Growth of Bi 2 Se 3 on a Freestanding Monolayer Graphene Membrane: Implications for Layered Materials and Heterostructures

Research on two-dimensional and layered materials has expanded over the past 2 decades because of their unique properties and application potential. The key hurdles in realizing this potential are the challenges in controlling their atomic structure and their incompatibility with existing semiconductor nanofabrication techniques. Here we report on high-quality van der Waals epitaxial growth and characterization of a layered topological insulator on freestanding monolayer graphene transferred to different mechanical supports. This “templated” synthesis approach enables direct interrogation of the interfacial atomic structure of the as-grown materials and opens a route toward creating device structures with more traditional semiconductor nanofabrication techniques.

Prediction of L⁢i 3 ⁢F⁡e 8 ⁢B 8 compound with rapid one-dimensional ion diffusion channels

Using a computational crystal structure search in the Li-Fe-B ternary system, we predict a stable phase of L⁢i 3 ⁢F⁡e 8 ⁢B 8 , featuring 1D channels that enable rapid Li-ion transport. Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations show that the Li-ion diffusion coefficient in L⁢i 3 ⁢F⁡e 8⁢ B 8 surpasses that of common electrode and conductive additive materials by several orders of magnitude. The high diffusion in L⁢i 3 ⁢F⁡e 8 ⁢B 8 can be explained by the Frenkel–Kontorova model, which describes an incommensurate state between the Li diffusion chain and the periodic potential field caused by the FeB backbone structure. The favorable lithium-ion diffusivity and mechanical properties of L⁢i 3 ⁢F⁡e 8 ⁢B 8 make it a promising conductive additive for battery materials. Furthermore, an external magnetic field can further manipulate the properties of this material due to its predicted itinerant ferromagnetism, which also offers a platform for exploring spin-dependent phenomena.

Off-shell pion properties: Electromagnetic form factors and light-front wave functions

The off-shell pion electromagnetic form factors are explored with corresponding off-shell light-front wave functions modeled by constituent quark and antiquark. We apply the Mandelstam approach for the microscopic computation of the form factors relating the model parameters with the pion decay constant and charge radius. Analyzing the existing data on the cross sections for the Sullivan process, 1 H(e,e',π + )⁢n, Charged pion form factor between Q 2 = 0.60, and 2.45 GeV 2 . I. Measurements of the cross section for the 1 H⁡(e,e'⁢π + )⁢n reaction, we extract the off-shell pion form factor using the relation derived from the generalized Ward-Takahashi identity for the pion electromagnetic current. They are compared with our previous results from exactly solvable manifestly covariant model of a (3+1)-dimensional fermion field theory. We find that the adopted constituent quark model reproduces the extracted off-shell form factor F 1 ⁡(Q 2 ,t) from the experimental data within a few percent difference and matches well with our previous theoretical simulation which exhibits a variation of about 10% for the extracted off-shell pion form factor g(Q 2 ,t). We also identify the pion valence parton distribution function (PDF) and transverse momentum distribution (TMD) in terms of the light-front wave function and discuss their off-shell properties.

Bimolecular Peroxy Radical (RO 2 ) Reactions and Their Relevance in Radical Initiated Oxidation of Hydrocarbons

The kinetics of peroxy radical (RO 2 ) reactions have been of long-standing interest in atmospheric and combustion chemistry. Nevertheless, the lack of kinetic studies at higher temperatures for their reactions with other radicals such as OH has precluded the inclusion of this class of reactions in detailed kinetics models developed for combustion applications. In this work, guided by the limited room temperature experimental studies on selected alkyl-peroxy radicals and literature theoretical kinetics on the prototypical CH 3 O 2 + OH system, we have performed parametric studies on the effect of uncertainties in the rate coefficients and branching ratios to potential product channels for RO 2 + OH reactions at higher temperatures. Literature kinetics models were used to simulate autoignition delays, laminar flame speeds, and speciation profiles in flow and stirred reactors for a variety of common combustion-relevant fuels. Inclusion of RO 2 + OH reactions was found to retard autoignition in fuel-lean (φ = 0.5) mixtures of ethane and dimethyl ether in air. The observed effects were noticeably more pronounced in ozone-enriched combustion of ethane and dimethyl ether. The simulations also examined the influence of ozone doping levels, pressures, and equivalence ratios for both ethane and dimethyl ether oxidation. Sensitivity and flux analyses revealed that the RO 2 + OH reaction is a significant sink of RO 2 radicals at the early stage of autoignition, affecting fuel oxidation through RO 2 ↔ QOOH, RO 2 ↔ alkene + HO 2 , or RO 2 + HO 2 ↔ ROOH + O 2 . Additionally, the kinetic stability of the trioxide formed from RO 2 + OH reactions was investigated using master equation analyses. Last, we discuss other bimolecular reactions that are missing in literature kinetics models but are relevant to hydrocarbon oxidation initiated by external radical sources (plasma-enhanced, ozone-enriched combustion, etc.). In conclusion, the present simulations provide a strong motivation for better characterizing the bimolecular kinetics of peroxy radicals.

Prediction of crystal structures and motifs in the Fe–Mg–O system at Earth’s core pressures

Abstract Fe, Mg, and O are among the most abundant elements in terrestrial planets. While the behavior of the Fe–O, Mg–O, and Fe–Mg binary systems under pressure have been investigated, there are still very few studies of the Fe–Mg–O ternary system at relevant Earth’s core and super-Earth’s mantle pressures. Here, we use the adaptive genetic algorithm (AGA) to study ternary Fe x Mg y O z phases in a wide range of stoichiometries at 200 GPa and 350 GPa. We discovered three dynamically stable phases with stoichiometries FeMg 2 O 4 , Fe 2 MgO 4, and FeMg 3 O 4 with lower enthalpy than any known combination of Fe–Mg–O high-pressure compounds at 350 GPa. With the discovery of these phases, we construct the Fe–Mg–O ternary convex hull. We further clarify the composition- and pressure-dependence of structural motifs with the analysis of the AGA-found stable and metastable structures. Analysis of binary and ternary stable phases suggest that O, Mg, or both could stabilize a BCC iron alloy at inner core pressures.

Deficiencies in compression and yield in x-ray-driven implosions

This paper analyzes x-ray–driven implosions that are designed to be less sensitive to 2-D and 3-D effects in hohlraum and capsule physics. Key performance metrics including the burn-averaged ion temperature, hot-spot areal density, and fusion yield are found to agree with simulations where the design adiabat (internal pressure) is multiplied by a factor of 1.4. Furthermore, these results motivate the development of a simple model for interpreting experimental data, which is then used to quantify how improvements in compression could help achieve ignition.

Effects of Sn substitution in SrRuO 3 epitaxial films

Epitaxial SrRu 1–x Sn x O 3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) thin films were deposited on SrTiO 3 (001) substrates by sequential two-target synthesis using pulsed laser deposition to achieve stable phases in this family of quaternary perovskites. The SrRu 1–x Sn x O 3 films exhibit a good crystalline quality, a sharp interface between film and substrate, and an atomically smooth surface. A gradual expansion of the c-axis lattice parameter was observed with Sn doping serving as a means to tune chemical pressure and magnetism. With an increase in Sn doping, the resistivity of the film increased, and the ferromagnetism decreased. These results illustrate use of lattice engineering, e.g., tuning of c-axis lattice parameter with chemical doping, to control electronic and magnetic properties of epitaxial thin films for applications in oxide electronics.

A kinetic evaluation on NO 2 formation in the post-flame region of pressurized oxy-combustion process

Pressurized oxy-combustion is a promising technology that can significantly re-duce the energy penalty associated with first generation oxy-combustion for CO 2 capture in coal-fired power plants. However, higher pressure enhances the production of strong acid gases, including NO 2 and SO 3 , aggravating the corrosion threat during flue gas re-circulation. In the flame region, high temperature NO x exists mainly as NO, while conversion from NO to NO 2 happened in post-flame region. In this study, the conversion of NO → NO 2 has been kinetically evaluated under representative post-flame conditions of pressurized oxy-combustion after validating the mechanism (80 species and 464 reactions), which includes nitrogen and sulfur chemistry based on GRI-MECH 3.0. The effects of residence time, temperature, pressure, major species (O 2 /H 2 O), and minor or trace species (CO/SO x ) on NO 2 formation are studied. The calculation results show that when pressure is increased from 1 to 15 bar, NO 2 is increased from 1 to 60 ppm, and the acid dew point increases by over 80°C. Higher pressure and temperature greatly reduce the time required to reach equilibrium. With increasing pressure and decreasing temperature, O plays a much more important role than HO 2 in the oxidation of NO. A higher water vapor content accelerates NO 2 formation in all cases by providing more O and HO 2 radicals. The addition of CO or SO 2 also promotes the formation of NO 2 . The NO 2 formation in a pressurized oxy-combustion furnace can be over 10 times that of an atmospheric air-combustion furnace.

Energy response characterization of current-mode MeV Cherenkov aerogel detectors

Current-mode Cherenkov aerogel detectors have been used to measure time resolved spectra of MeV radiographic x-ray sources and have been considered to replace gas Cherenkov systems. The simulations of the Cherenkov response of aerogel detectors have uncertainties in how to model the complex structure of aerogels. Data from three sites—the Idaho electron beam, the Los Alamos Site electron beam and microtron sources at Los Alamos—have been used to calibrate the relative energy response of 15 aerogels, varying in density from 10 to 430 mg/cm 3 , from incident electrons with energies from 1 to 12 MeV. Detector simulations need to introduce density variation in the aerogels to match the collected data.

Genetically engineered poplar wood effectively enhances the efficiency of deep eutectic solvent-mediated one-pot processing

Although lignocellulosic biomass is a renewable resource with the potential to replace fossil-derived fuels and chemicals, its recalcitrance, largely due to lignin, limits its utilization. Recent advancements in genetic engineering have produced transgenic trees with reduced lignin content and/or modified lignin structure without compromising growth traits. Here, three engineered poplar varieties are evaluated as feedstocks using a biocompatible one-pot deep eutectic solvent-mediated process that integrates biomass fractionation and enzymatic saccharification within a single reactor, eliminating water washing and reconditioning. All transgenic poplars exhibit higher fermentable sugar yields than wild-type (WT) trees. Notably, QsuB poplar, incorporating 3,4-dihydroxybenzoate in lignin, achieves the highest glucose conversion yield of 91.3% (vs. 73.0% from WT). AT5 and MdCHS3 poplars, incorporating ferulate esters and naringenin, also demonstrate improved glucose yields (86.7 and 84.7%, respectively), confirming reduced biomass recalcitrance. Additionally, residual lignins are valorized via hydrogenolysis into phenolic compounds, with comparable alkylphenol production across all lines. These findings demonstrate that the transgenic poplar lines not only serve as superior feedstocks for sugar conversion but also provide a rich resource for phenolic compound production, enhancing the operational and economic viability of integrated biorefinery processes.
