The paramagnetic cyano-bridged complex PhB(BuIm)Fe-NC-Mo(NBuAr) (Ar = 3,5-MeCH) is readily assembled from a new four-coordinate, high-spin ( = 2) iron(II) monocyanide complex and the three-coordinate molybdenum(III) complex Mo(NBuAr). X-ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy reveal that delocalization of unpaired electron density into the cyanide π* orbitals leads to a reduction of the C-N bond order. Direct current (dc) magnetic susceptibility measurements, supported by electronic structure calculations, demonstrate the presence of strong antiferromagnetic exchange between spin centers, with a coupling constant of = -122(2) cm. To our knowledge, this value represents the strongest magnetic exchange coupling ever to be observed through cyanide. These results demonstrate the ability of low-coordinate metal fragments to engender extremely strong magnetic exchange coupling through cyanide by virtue of significant π-backbonding into the cyanide ligand.

In this work, we report a facile strategy for synthesizing hydrophilic Gd(OH) sheets via a Gd-based interfacial precipitation reaction at the interface of organosilane-modified GdO nanoparticles and a cation exchange resin. This strategy, independent of the specific organosilane used, produces two-dimensional sheets with a distinct lamellar structure and excellent aqueous dispersibility. Characterization confirms the formation of Gd(OH) sheets with promising fluorescent and magnetic properties.

Objective: Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) often suffers from low spatial and angular resolution due to inherent limitations in imaging hardware and system noise, adversely affecting the accurate estimation of microstructural parameters with fine anatomical details. Deep learning-based super-resolution techniques have shown promise in enhancing dMRI resolution without increasing acquisition time. However, most existing methods are confined to either spatial or angular super-resolution, disrupting the information exchange between the two domains and limiting their effectiveness in capturing detailed microstructural features.

The 180° switching of the perpendicular Néel vector induced by the spin-orbit torque (SOT) presents significant potential for ultradense and ultrafast antiferromagnetic SOT-magnetoresistive random-access memory. However, its experimental realization remains a topic of intense debate. Here, unequivocal evidence is provided for the SOT-induced 180° switching of the perpendicular Néel vector in collinear antiferromagnetic CrO in a Pt/CrO/Co trilayer structure.

Introduction: Antisocial behaviors occur in dementia, but the underlying neurocognitive mechanisms remain underexplored. We administered a decision-making task measuring patients' harm aversion by offering options to shock themselves or another person in exchange for money, hypothesizing that task performance would relate to antisocial behaviors and ventromedial/orbitofrontal cortex (vmPFC/OFC) atrophy.
Methods: Among 43 dementia patients (n = 23 behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia [bvFTD], n = 20 Alzheimer's disease [AD]), we used linear regressions to measure relationships between harm aversion and antisocial behavior, psychopathic personality traits, socioemotional functions, and vmPFC/OFC cortical thickness, controlling for age, sex, and cognitive dysfunction.

Supercapacitors, comprising electrical double-layer capacitors (EDLCs) and pseudocapacitors, are widely acknowledged as high-power energy storage devices. However, their local structures and fundamental mechanisms remain poorly understood, and suitable experimental techniques for investigation are also lacking. Recently, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has emerged as a powerful tool for addressing these fundamental issues with high local sensitivity and non-invasiveness.
