The chemical order and disorder of solids have a decisive influence on the material properties. There are numerous materials exhibiting order/disorder atoms with similar X-ray atomic scattering factors neutron lengths. It is difficult to investigate such hidden in data obtained from conventional diffraction methods.

Abstract Colloidal carbon dots (CDs) have garnered much attention as metal‐free photoluminescent nanomaterials, yet creation of solid‐state fluorescent (SSF) materials emitting in the deep red (DR) to near‐infrared (NIR) range poses a significant challenge with practical implications. To address this and engineer photonic functionalities, micro‐resonator architecture is developed using carbonized polymer microspheres (CPMs), evolved from conventional colloidal nanodots. Gram‐scale production...

Evidence for the quasi one-dimensional (1D) antiferromagnetism of CuO is presented in a framework Heisenberg model. We have obtained an experimental absolute value paramagnetic spin susceptibility by subtracting orbital separately from total through $^{63}$Cu NMR shift measurement, and compared directly with theoretical predictions.

Multicolor emissions from carbon dots (CDs) are vital for light-emitting diodes (LEDs), particularly direct, white-light emission (WLE), which enables a replacement of rare earth (RE)-doped phosphors. However, the difficulty synthesizing single-component WLE CDs with full-spectrum severely hinders further investigation their mechanisms and practical applications. Here, we demonstrate rational design synthesis chromatically tunable cyan-, orange-, emission, precisely along blackbody Planckian...
