Herein, we report the magnetic and photoluminescence characterization of coordination polymers (CP) built from combination lanthanide(III) ions, pyrimidine-4,6-dicarboxylate (pmdc) ligand a co-ligand with formula {[Dy(μ-pmdc)(μ-ox)0.5(H2O)3]·2H2O}n (1-Dy), {[Dy(μ3-pmdc)(μ-ox)0.5(H2O)2] ~2.33H2O}n (2-Dy), {[Dy2(μ3-pmdc)(μ4-pmdc)(μ-ox)(H2O)3]·5H2O}n (3-Dy), {[Ln(μ3-pmdc)(μ-ox)0.5(H2O)2]·H2O}n (wh...

The expression of laminin isoforms and laminin-binding integrin receptors known to occur in muscle was investigated during myogenic regeneration after crush injury. Comparisons were made between dystrophic 129ReJ dy/dy mice, which have reduced laminin alpha2 expression, and their normal littermates. The overall histological pattern of regeneration after crush injury was similar in dy/dy and con...

A novel 2-D coordination polymer constructed from high nuclearity nanosized Ho48 clusters was synthesised and structurally characterized using single-crystal X-ray analysis. The Ho48 cluster core with a charming waist drum-like structure was templated by CO3(2-) ions, and bridged by Ho-N bonds to get a 2-D coordination polymer.

Neutron powder diffraction and single crystal x-ray resonant magnetic scattering measurements suggest that Dy plays an active role in enhancing the ferroelectric polarization in multiferroic DyMnO3 above T(Dy)(N)=6.5 K. We observe the evolution of an incommensurate ordering of Dy moments with the same periodicity as the Mn spiral ordering. It closely tracks the evolution of the ferroelectric po...

The title compound, Dy(2)Ni(7), adopts the β-Gd(2)Co(7)-type structure type. The asymmetric unit contains two Dy sites (both site symmetry 3m) and five Ni sites (site symmetries .m, .2/m and -3m, and two 3m). The four different Ni coordination polyhedra are Frank-Kasper icosa-hedra formed by five Dy and seven Ni atoms, four Dy and eight Ni, three Dy and nine Ni, and six Dy and six Ni atoms, res...
