Thinning CsPb2Br5 Perovskite Down to Monolayers: Cs-dependent Stability [PDF]
Using first-principles density functional theory calculations, we systematically investigate the structural, electronic and vibrational properties of bulk and potential single-layer structures of perovskite-like CsPb2Br5 crystal.

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Flotation Separation of Cu-Pb-Zn Polymetallic Ore Based on Sulfuric Acid as Regulator
The main valuable elements of a Cu-Pb-Zn polymetallic ore in Laos are Cu, Pb, Zn and associated Ag. Aiming at the characteristics of the close association and fine dissemination of the valuable minerals, on the basis of exploratory experiments, the ...

We consider the Br vacancy in CsPbBr3 as a prototype for the impact of structural dynamics on defect energetics in halide perovskites (HaPs). Using first-principles molecular dynamics based on density functional theory, we find that the static picture of

Photoreversible interconversion of a phytochrome photosensory module in the crystalline state. [PDF]
A major barrier to defining the structural intermediates that arise during the reversible photointerconversion of phytochromes between their biologically inactive and active states has been the lack of crystals that faithfully undergo this transition ...

Highly responsive ground state of PbTaSe$_2$: structural phase transition and evolution of superconductivity under pressure [PDF]
Transport and magnetic studies of PbTaSe$_2$ under pressure suggest existence of two superconducting phases with the low temperature phase boundary at $\sim 0.25$ GPa that is defined by a very sharp, first order, phase transition.

Despite the progressive enhancement in the flexibility of Pb-based perovskites for optoelectronic applications, regrettably, they are facing two main challenges; (1) instability, which originates from using organic components in the perovskite structure,

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Locating the binding sites of Pb(II) ion with human and bovine serum albumins. [PDF]
Lead is a potent environmental toxin that has accumulated above its natural level as a result of human activity. Pb cation shows major affinity towards protein complexation and it has been used as modulator of protein-membrane interactions.

Z$_2$ topology and superconductivity from symmetry lowering of a 3D Dirac Metal Au$_2$Pb
3D Dirac semi-metals (DSMs) are materials that have massless Dirac electrons and exhibit exotic physical properties It has been suggested that structurally distorting a DSM can create a Topological Insulator (TI), but this has not yet been experimentally
