Abstract
A series of novel KSrY1-xErx(BO3)2 (x = 0-1) phosphors that emit near-infrared radiation was synthesized using solid-state methods. Pure Y and Er crystals were grown using a KF flux via the top-seeded solution growth technique. In situ high-temperature single crystal X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy and DFT calculations were used for characterization. Within the series, a polymorphic phase transition from space group P21/m to R3m was discovered between 550 and 600°C. The concentration dependence of the luminescence intensity was measured for the samples. A strong emission of Er3+ electron transition 4I13/2 → 4I15/2 was detected within the 1529-1549 nm range, with the maximum observed for the KSrY0.4Er0.6(BO3)2 composition.

Abstract
The recent synthesis of single-layer Janus-type transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) raises the question of the existence of other possible 2D structures with an asymmetric out-of-plane structural configuration. In the present work, a theoretical search for new Janus structures having SMoSe and SVSe compositions is performed. A detailed crystal-chemical analysis of the predicted structures is carried out, and it is shown that some of the dynamically stable structures are characterized by crystal-chemical features that are unique among TMDs, including quadruple Mo—Mo bonds and covalent S—S and Se—Se bonds. It is also shown that Mo-bearing TMDs have a tendency to form strong Mo—Mo bonds with chains or isolated dimers of molybdenum atoms, while in the case of vanadium-containing TMDs this feature is not characteristic. Two predicted crystal structures, called 1M-SVSe and 1A′-SMoSe, are especially promising for experimental synthesis and practical applications owing to their dynamical stability and rather low value of enthalpy compared with known structures. The enthalpy of 1M-SVSe is 0.22 eV per formula unit lower than that of 1T-SVSe, while the enthalpy of 1A′-SMoSe is 0.12 eV per formula unit lower than the enthalpy of 1T-SMoSe. The performed topological analysis showed that the predicted structures are unique and do not have analogues in the Inorganic Crystal Structure Database.

Abstract
NaSrR(BO3)2 (R = Ho-Lu, Y, Sc) compounds were obtained for the first time. Their structures exhibit disordered positions of Sr2+ and Na+ atoms while RO6 polyhedra are connected through the BO3 groups. Large distances between R atoms and high transparency in the range of 250-900 nm make them promising for phosphor applications. A pathway to obtain single crystals was shown by growing NaSrY(BO3)2 and NaSrYb(BO3)2 by the top seeded solution growth method with Na2O-B2O3-NaF flux.

Abstract
We carried out ab initio calculations on the crystal structure prediction and determination of P–T diagrams within the quasi-harmonic approximation for Fe7N3 and Fe7C3. Two new isostructural phases Fe7N3-C2/m and Fe7C3-C2/m which are dynamically and thermodynamically stable under the Earth's core conditions were predicted. The Fe7C3-C2/m phase stabilizes preferentially to the known h-Fe7C3 at 253–344 GPa in the temperature range of 0–5000 K, and the Fe7N3-C2/m stabilizes preferentially relative to the β-Fe7N3 – at ∼305 GPa over the entire temperature range. This indicate that carbon and nitrogen can mutually coexist and replace each other in the Earth's and other planetary cores similarly to low pressure phases of the same compounds. We carried out ab initio calculations on the crystal structure prediction and determination of P–T diagrams within the quasi-harmonic approximation for Fe7N3 and Fe7C3.![]()

Abstract
Abstract
The microstructure of aragonite, one of the main bio-mineral and component of bio-inspired materials, was described in numerous investigations. Using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), for the first time we show the effect of temperature on aragonite microstructure. The local increase of (0.5 0.5 0) reflections intensities and appearance of satellite reflections in [11̅0] zone axis were observed above 350°C. We explain the appearance of satellite reflections by the generation and ordering of {110} twin boundaries and suggest new thermal mechanism of the twin boundaries generation. We check the viability of this mechanism by ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations and generalized solid state nudge elastic band (g-SSNEB) calculations.
