High-spin impurities and surface acoustic waves in piezoelectric crystals for spin-lattice coupling by Magnusson, E

“…We concluded it to be a transition induced by acoustic coupling since the signal intensity did not tend to zero when the magnetic field was parallel to the crystal anisotropy axis. Furthermore, this tells us that the coupling is due to a modulation of the E zero-field splitting parameter rather than <em>D</em>. …”

A cationic thorium-organic framework with triple single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation peculiarities for ultrasensitive anion recognition by Li, Zi-Jian, Lei, Min, Bao, Hongliang, Ju, Yu, Lu, Huangjie, Li, Yongxin, Zhang, Zhi-Hui, Guo, Xiaofeng, Qian, Yuan, He, Ming-Yang, Wang, Jian-Qiang, Liu, Wei, Lin, Jian

“…Moreover, the single-crystal-to-single-crystal transition in NaIO3 solution can efficiently and selectively turn the ligand-based emission off, leading to the lowest limit of detection (0.107 μg kg-1) of iodate, one of the primary species of long-lived fission product 129I in aqueous medium, among all luminescent sensors.…”
