TL;DR: In this article, a vibrational wavepacket generated in a spin singlet is shown to be transferable to spin triplets during singlet fission in organic semiconductors.

TL;DR: It is shown that Mn3+ is stabilized kinetically in tetrahedral sites and its presence strains the oxide lattice, leading to a favorable disposition of oxide-based vs. metal-based energy levels that favors enhanced OER activity.

TL;DR: This work presents an experimental setup for recording vibrational coherences and thereby Raman spectra of molecules in their ground and excited electronic states over the 50-3000 cm(-1) spectral range using broadband impulsive vibrational spectroscopy, which drastically reduces experimental complexity compared to frequency domain based techniques.

TL;DR: A self-sustained Ni(I/III) cycle is operative in both redox-mediated, Ni-catalyzed aryl etherification and electrochemically mediated conditions by chemically synthesizing and characterizing a common paramagnetic Ni intermediate and establishing its catalytic activity.

TL;DR: A simple laboratory-based, optical interferometric scattering microscope is introduced to resolve nanoscopic lithium-ion dynamics in battery materials, and is applied to follow cycling of individual particles of the archetypal cathode material, LixCoO2, within an electrode matrix.
