Intermolecular Interactions as Driving Force of Increasing Multiphoton Absorption in a Perylene Diimide‐Based Coordination Polymer

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study uncovers the unexplored role of intermolecular interactions in multiphoton absorption in coordination polymers. By analyzing [Zn2tpda(DMA)2(DMF)0.3], it shows how the electronic coupling of the chromophores and confinement in the MOF enhance two‐and three‐photon absorption.

Modulating Two‐Photon Absorption in a Pyrene‐Based MOF Series: An In‐Depth Investigation of Structure–Property Relationships

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates H4TBAPy‐based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) ‐ NU‐1000, NU‐901, SrTBAPy, and BaTBAPy ‐ for multiphoton absorption (MPA) performance. It observes topology‐dependent variations in the 2PA cross‐section, with BaTBAPy exhibiting the highest activity.

Ce3+‐Activated Lithium Rare‐Earth Oxonitridolithosilicates: A New Class of LED Phosphors with Similarities to Garnets

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Garnet‐like luminescence upon Ce3+‐activation is found in the first six representatives Li9RESi4N4O8 (RE = Y, La, Gd, Dy, Yb, Lu) of the substance class of lithium rare‐earth oxonitridolithosilicates, which also show a novel structure type. High‐temperature solid‐state synthesis yielded crystalline samples for single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction‐based ...

Ion Valency as a Molecular Switch for Salt‐Resistant Underwater Adhesion

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Monovalent K+ ions weaken adhesion by forming K+‐π complexes with weak bridging capacity. In contrast, multivalent cations like Y3+ enhance adhesion by forming stable π‐cation‐π bridging networks, which are resistant to salt and capable of compensating for the loss of native π–π and NH3+‐π interactions.

Graph Neural Network Driven Exploration of Non‐Precious Metal Catalysts for Air‐to‐Ammonia Conversion

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A machine learning‐driven microkinetic framework, based on graph neural networks is developed, for screening non‐noble catalysts in NH2OH hydrogenation. This approach enables the discovery of efficient catalysts for plasma–electrochemical ammonia synthesis directly from air under ambient conditions. CuMnSb is identified as a top‐performing, sustainable
