Article Abstract

The new compound [(NC)Ru(ap)](μ-1,4-CH) (ap = 2-anilinopyridinate) was prepared to address the open question of whether a 1,4-phenylene bridge can mediate intermetallic electronic coupling. As a manifestation of strong coupling, hole delocalization between the Ru centers on the IR time scale (10 s) was established using spectroelectrochemistry. An orbital mechanism for coupling was elaborated with DFT analysis.

Magnetic force microscopy is a state-of-the-art high-resolution method of magnetic domain structure stray field investigation. Bulk uniaxial crystals with a branched domain structure are characterized by a stray field that changes rapidly with increasing distance from the sample surface. For such structures, it is most important to obtain magnetic force images at the lowest achievable tip-sample lift height z value.

Al-based intermetallic compounds possess excellent mechanical and thermal properties, making them promising candidates for high-temperature structural applications. In this study, the structural stability, mechanical properties, and electronic characteristics of AlTM (TM = Mo, Nb, Os, Re, Ru, Ta, Tc, Ti) intermetallic compounds were systematically investigated using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory. All alloys exhibit negative formation energy, indicating favorable thermodynamic stability.

High-entropy intermetallic alloy/carbon nanoflower cascade nanozyme for multi-modal synergistic cancer therapy.

Although nanozyme-mediated chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has been extensively investigated, its therapeutic efficacy is hindered by tumor microenvironment (TME), which features low endogenous HO level and high glutathione (GSH) concentration. In this work, PtFeCoMoMn high-entropy intermetallic alloy/N-doped carbon nanoflowers (HEIA/NCNFs) was synthesized by a one-step pyrolysis. The HEIA/NCNFs exhibited multiple peroxidase (POD)-, catalase (CAT)-, oxidase (OXD)-, glutathione oxidase (GSHOx)-, and NADPH oxidase (NOX)-like activities, which were integrated with glucose oxidase (GOx) and doxorubicin (DOX) to establish a cascade nanotherapeutic platform (termed HEIA/NCNFs-GOx/DOX).

Precisely controlling the surface and internal atomic structures of platinum (Pt)-based nanocrystals remains a critical challenge for developing high-performance oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts. Here, we report a gas dynamically confined strategy leveraging hydrogen adsorption to synthesize Pt-based intermetallic nanowires (NWs) with ordered bulk atomic lattices (PtFe L1, PtCo L1, PtNi L1) and abundant high-index {311}, {211}, and {221} facets. Dynamic hydrogen adsorption reduces surface energy and suppresses atomic migration during high-temperature annealing, preserving the one-dimensional morphology and enabling structural ordering, as confirmed by in situ transmission electron microscopy and density functional theory calculations.
