Article Abstract
A diode-pumped passively continuous wave mode-locked laser at 1064.2 nm based on an ordered Nd:CNGS crystal has been experimentally investigated (for the first time, to our knowledge). Stable mode-locked pulses with a duration of 759 fs were produced at a repetition rate of 43.2 MHz. It is the shortest pulse generation of mode-locked lasers based on Nd-doped ordered crystal, as far as we know. A maximum average mode-locked output power of 133 mW was obtained at the absorbed pumped power of 6.7 W, and corresponding single-pulse energy and peak power were determined to be 3.1 nJ and 4.1 kW, respectively. The results indicate that the Nd:CNGS as an ordered crystal is indeed a potential candidate as a femtosecond laser gain medium.

The effects of pressure on the crystal structure of scheelite-type perrhenates were studied using synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction and density-functional theory. At ambient conditions, the studied materials AgReO, KReO, and RbReO, exhibit a tetragonal scheelite-type crystal structure described by space group 4/. Under compression, a transition from scheelite-to-M'-fergusonite (space group 2/) was observed at 1.

Intermetallic compounds belong to an important class of materials, not only due to the sheer number of compounds known but also due to their application in everyday life. These compounds possess their very own peculiarities, especially when it comes to chemical bonding. To address this point, bonding analyses based on Crystal Orbital Bond Index (COBI) values, Löwdin charges, and - for the first time - oxidation numbers (ON ) were conducted, all extracted from delocalized plane-wave functions.

The crystallization behavior of ionic liquids (ILs) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium [BMIM] hexafluorophosphate [PF] and chloride [Cl] is investigated upon confinement in 2.3 or 8.2 nm diameter silica nanopore arrays, along with the effects of covalently modifying the pore walls with 1-(3-trimethoxysilylpropyl)3-methylimidazolium [TMS-MIM] groups.

Quadrupolar NMR crystallography guided crystal structure prediction (QNMRX-CSP) is a method for determining the crystal structures of organic solids. To date, our two previous QNMRX-CSP studies have relied upon on Cl solid-state NMR (SSNMR) spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Monte-Carlo simulated annealing (MC-SA), and dispersion-corrected density functional theory (DFT-D2∗) calculations for the determination of crystal structures for organic HCl salts with known crystal structures, in order to benchmark the method and subject it to blind tests. Herein, we apply QNMRX-CSP for the de novo crystal structure determination of L-alaninamide HCl (L-Ala-NH), for which no crystal structure has been reported, using Cl SSNMR and PXRD data for structural prediction and refinement, along with C and N SSNMR data for subsequent structural validation.

This study demonstrates the successful fabrication of nanostructured Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films combining the conjugated copolymer poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene--3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PDOF--PEDOT) with spherical and triangular silver nanoparticles (AgNP). The LB technique allowed precise control over the molecular arrangement and distribution of the nanoparticles at the air-water interface, resulting in compact, reproducible and structurally ordered nanocomposite films. The structural and morphological properties of the interfacial monolayers and LB films were investigated using surface pressure-area isotherms, Brewster angle microscopy, polarization modulation infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (PM-IRRAS) and quartz crystal microbalance.
