Exchange‐Coupled Two‐Dimensional MOFs
Graphene mediates ferromagnetic coupling between two‐dimensional metal‐organic frameworks and cobalt. Fe‐tetracyanobenzene develops a remanent magnetic response whose orientation follows the cobalt magnetization direction and persists up to room temperature, whereas Ni‐TCNB remains only field‐polarized.

Metal‐free carbon catalysts enable the sustainable synthesis of hydrogen peroxide via two‐electron oxygen reduction; however, active site complexity continues to hinder reliable interpretation. This review critiques correlation‐based approaches and highlights the importance of orthogonal experimental designs, standardized catalyst passports ...

Post‐Synthetic Zinc Modifications to Correct Speciation in Ti‐MWW Zeolites for Catalytic Oxidation
Post‐synthetic Zn modifications of Ti‐MWW zeolite catalysts exhibit improved catalytic properties in the selective oxidation reaction, namely the ammoximation reaction. The origin of the beneficial effect of Zn is related via an array of spectroscopic and microscopic techniques to the modification of extra‐framework TiO2 and TiOx clusters and the ...

NEXAFS imaging of synthetic organic materials
The utilization of near edge x-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (NEXAFS) in achieving strong, novel contrast for soft x-ray microscopy and scattering methods has been afforded significant success in elucidating outstanding issues in organic materials systems due to the unique combination of high sensitivity to chemical functionality and thus ...

Internal molecular conformation of organic glasses: A NEXAFS study
The origin of the exceptional stability of molecular glasses grown by physical vapor deposition (PVD) is not well understood. Differences in glass density have been correlated with thermodynamic stability for thin films of N,N′-Bis(3-methylphenyl)-N,N′-diphenylbenzidine (TPD) grown by PVD at specific substrate temperatures below the glass transition ...

CHARACTERIZATION OF ORGANIC GLASSES BY NEXAFS SPECTROSCOPY [PDF]
The orientational order and morphology of organic thin films play an important role in defining their physical properties. The development of general techniques to define and control molecular orientation at the nanoscale may lead to improved performance

Molecular nitrogen in N-doped TiO2 nanoribbons† [PDF]
The nitrogen doping of TiO2 nanoribbons during the thermal transformation of hydrogen titanate nanoribbons (HTiNRs) between 400 and 650 °C in a dynamic ammonia atmosphere was investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission X-ray ...

Alkoxy chain length drives a continuous transition from eclipsed AA to a serrated, slipped AA* configuration over Co‐porphyrin COFs. A moderate slip both contracts the pore channel to enrich CO2 and suppress hydrogen evolution, and enhances collective high‐spin of Co sites, which delivers a record CO production rate with high selectivity.
