Pressure or not we are here! 💎 Stay tuned for news & info🔥 coming directly from @AmuDmch @UAM_Poznan

Sobczak and Katrusiak: Structural insight into piezo-solvatochromism of Reichardt's dye #Solvatomorphism #Piezosolvatochromism #HighPressureCrystallization ... #IUCr journals.iucr.org/paper?S2052252…

Embark on a tale of discovery with our latest research, where we unveil a long-sought-after gem in perovskite chemistry: single-crystalline iodoplumbic acid. Explore the twists and triumphs, polymorphs and hydrates, balancing on the fine line between grinding and high-pressure.

Congratulations to the team! 🥳 The results are amazing, but the 3-dimensional polymorph of PbI2 with 7-coordinated Pb2+…🤯 #chemistry #Science #Physics

A milestone for understanding the mechanical properties of coordination polymers and MOFs. Congratulations to @Ale_ale_pol for which this article was a crown jewel just on the finish of her PhD studies! 👑

🔬 Discover groundbreaking insights on ether molecules at high pressure! Our new paper explores the fascinating conformation-aggregation dynamics in aliphatic ethers. Learn how diethyl, dimethyl, and di-n-propyl ethers transform at high pressures. Congrats to @sacharczuk_nat 📈

It's truly an honor to see prof. Katrusiak sharing his insights on solid state chemistry with the diligent students at @unibo. Our gratitude extends to Prof. @bragadario for fostering this invaluable educational exchange. Together, we're building bridges to shape the future. 📚🔬

With less than 4h to go #Perovskite is losin against rhodochrosite. I am calling all Perovskite people on X to get this vote right. RT🙏. Vote and share this link 👇🏼 No X account needed to vote so share with friends/colleagues on any media. mineralcup.org/2023/campaigns… #MinCup23

Congratulations to everyone on the #CSDLeaderboard! Being recognized alongside such talent motivates us to work even harder. Looking forward to maintaining this momentum at next year's ECM in Berlin. Cheers to the future of crystallography! 🎉

Leonardo da Vinci loved quality over quantity. He didn’t write paintings in quantities like we write #research papers today. He always invested time, craft and artistry into each of his masterpieces. For example, Mona Lisa took at least 4 years to paint and (most probably) another 10 years of refining. It was ordered in 1503 by a cloth merchant Francesco del Giocondo, who asked for a portrait of his wife, Lisa. But Leonardo was a slow worker and finished the painting quite late. At that time, he started to work for the King Francis I of France, so apparently Leonardo gave the painting to the King as a gift. ▫️ Now, imagine he would have been ‘producing’ 10-20 paintings a year. Moreover, imagine he would have hired younger painters and, without investing time into their training, asked for drafts? Just to turn painting into a “printing machine”. Would his work have stayed in history for 500 years? ▫️ ‘Quality over quantity’ goes well beyond science. It’s in art. It’s in long-lasting engineering. It’s everywhere. ▫️ Don't publish for the sake of publishing. Quality over quantity. Even if the academia pushes you into the opposite direction. It’s what makes us, the humankind, progress and prosper. And this is what makes history. #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter

Crystallographers, get ready! TODAY at 13:30, I'll delve into the pressure-induced synthesis of iodoplumbic acid seems mysterious right? Join "Mechanochemistry Meets Crystal Engineering" in room 219 @IUCr2023. Dive with me into the depths of pressure and mechanochemistry! 💎✨

@arsgroup_poznan @UAM_Poznan Great work on your paper! It's a perfect follow-up to the 'amu' series we initiated here with amu-1 doi.org/10.1021/acs.jp…. Exciting to see the series evolve! 📚

Lots of fun running our #csdleaderboard challenge at #IUCr2023 for some of our amazing authors in the CSD with added bonus points for ICSD structures too! Can you beat our current winner? @IUCr2023 @FIZKarlsruhe

Looks who's starting #iucr2023 on a high note! Prof Katrusiak at the top of the #CSDLeaderBoard and @szymon_sobczak keeping pace! 🎉 Loving how the leaderboard evolves each year.📈 We're always striving to climb higher! Thanks, @ccdc_cambridge

Counting down the hours to the opening ceremony of @IUCr2023 this evening! Melbourne's iconic skyline is the perfect backdrop for this event. Here's a little preview for everyone of what's trending in the world of crystallography. 🌆🦘

Special acknowledgment to first author @ratajczykpaula for her significant contributions to this research. Highlighting @szymon_sobczak, recognized as an Emerging Investigator by @JMaterChem. Thanks to @tomaszporeba90, P. Woźny, and a warm welcome to Angelika for her 1st article.

We also observed a strong pressure and temperature dependence of the luminescence spectrum, coinciding with negative linear compressibility of the crystal. We're thrilled about the potential applications of these findings in next-gen electronic devices!

Our latest paper details the first organic multimodal sensor characterized under both varied temperature and pressure conditions. A collaboration between UAM labs (@DMC_amu & @amu_rare) and @MEx_ESRF. 🧪🔬 #MaterialsChemistry #Optoelectronics doi.org/10.1039/D3TC01…
