Valencies of the lanthanides [PDF]
The valencies of the lanthanides vary more than was once thought. In addition to valencies associated with a half-full shell, there are valencies associated with a quarter- and three-quarter-full shell.

Pushing the Boundary of Covalency in Lanthanoid-Tellurium Bonds: Insights from the Synthesis, Molecular and Electronic Structures of Low-Coordinate, Monomeric Europium(II) and Ytterbium(II) Tellurolates [PDF]
Owing to the strict hard/soft dichotomy between the lanthanoids and tellurium atoms, and the strong affinity of lanthanoid ions for high coordination numbers, low-coordinate, monomeric lanthanoid tellurolate complexes have remained elusive as compared to

Photochemical upconversion present status and prospects for its application to solar energy conversion [PDF]
All photovoltaic solar cells transmit photons with energies below the absorption threshold bandgap of the absorber material, which are therefore usually lost for the purpose of solar energy conversion.

Current rectification in a single molecule diode: the role of electrode coupling [PDF]
We demonstrate large rectification ratios (> 100) in single-molecule junctions based on a metal-oxide cluster (polyoxometalate), using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) both at ambient conditions and at low temperature. These rectification ratios are

Crystal field analysis of Dy and Tm implanted silicon for photonic and quantum technologies [PDF]
We report the lattice site and symmetry of optically active Dy3+ and Tm3+ implanted Si. Local symmetry was determined by fitting crystal field parameters (CFPs), corresponding to various common symmetries, to the ground state splitting determined by ...

Graph Networks as a Universal Machine Learning Framework for Molecules and Crystals [PDF]
Graph networks are a new machine learning (ML) paradigm that supports both relational reasoning and combinatorial generalization. Here, we develop universal MatErials Graph Network (MEGNet) models for accurate property prediction in both molecules and ...

Proximity to Fermi-surface topological change in superconducting LaO0.54F0.46BiS2 [PDF]
The electronic structure of nearly optimally-doped novel superconductor LaO$_{1-x}$F$_x$BiS$_2$ (${\it x}$ = 0.46) was investigated using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES).
