Article Abstract
Strong electronic correlations, interfaces, and defects, and disorder each individually challenge the theoretical methods for predictions of materials properties. These challenges are all simultaneously present in complex transition-metal-oxide interfaces and superlattices, which are known to exhibit unique and unusual properties caused by multiple coupled degrees of freedom and strong electronic correlations. Here we show that ab initio quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) solutions of the many-electron problem are now possible for the full complexity of these systems. Within a single nonempirical theoretical approach, we unambiguously establish the site-specific stability of oxygen vacancies in the (LaFeO)/(SrFeO) superlattice, accounting for experimental data, and predict their migration pathways. QMC calculations are now capable of playing a major role in the elucidation of many-body phenomena in complex oxides previously out of reach of first-principles theories.

The nanoscale environment within the void spaces of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can significantly influence the photoredox catalytic activity of encapsulated visible-light photoredox catalysts (PCs). To compare two isostructural PC@In-MOF systems, three cationic Ru(II) polypyridine complexes were successfully encapsulated within the mesoscale channels of the anionic framework of InTATB (HTATB = 4,4',4''--triazine-2,4,6-triyltribenzoic acid), which features a doubly interpenetrated framework structure. This encapsulation yielded three heterogenized visible-light PCs, RuL@InTATB, where L = 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy), 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), or 2,2'-bipyrazine (bpz).

Computer simulations play an essential role in the interpretation of experimental multiphoton absorption spectra. In addition, models derived from theory allow for the establishment of "structure-property" relationships. This work contributes to these efforts and presents the results of an analysis of two- and three-photon absorptions for a set comprising 450 conjugated molecules performed at the CAM-B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ level.

As a new generation of high-energy-density energy storage system, solid-state aluminum-ion batteries have attracted much attention. Nowadays polyethylene oxide (PEO)-based electrolytes have been initially applied to Lithium-ion batteries due to their flexible processing and good interfacial compatibility, their application in aluminum-ion batteries still faces problems. To overcome the limitations in aluminum-ion batteries-specifically, strong Al coordination suppressing ion dissociation, high room-temperature crystallinity, and inadequate mechanical strength-this study develops a blended polymer electrolyte (BPE) of polypropylene carbonate (PPC) and PEO.

Conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs), especially poly(-phenylene ethynylene) nanoparticles (PPE-NPs), are promising candidates for bio-imaging due to their high photostability, adjustable optical characteristics, and biocompatibility. Despite their potential, the fluorescence mechanisms of these nanoparticles are not yet fully understood. In this work, we modeled a spherical PPE-NP in a water environment using 30 PPE dimer chains.

The present study aimed to investigate the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of EPA-enriched phospholipids (EPA-PL) and DHA-enriched phospholipids (DHA-PL) against dexamethasone (DEX)-induced skeletal muscle atrophy both in vitro and in vivo. Results revealed that EPA-PL and DHA-PL significantly attenuated DEX-induced reduction in C2C12 myotube diameter. Additionally, supplementation with 1 % EPA-PL or 1 % DHA-PL for 6 weeks effectively alleviated DEX-induced declines in grip strength, skeletal muscle mass, and myofiber cross-sectional areas in mice.
