This is awesome! #crystallography

Just some pretty crystals #chemsky

"The data that support the findings of this study are available from the corresponding author upon reasonable request" How can this still appear in scientific papers from 2025? As a reader, reviewer, and evaluator (promotions, faculty hiring, awards), it is a red flag #OpenScience #ChemSky

Check out our new paper just published together with the Canepa group. 🎉📝 We took a deep dive into the crystal structure of Li4SiS4.🔍 This helped us investigate how mixing silicon with tin in Li4SiS4–Li4SnS4 affects the structure and ionic conductivity. 🧩 Check it out ⬇️ pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

A friend of mine recently showed me cluesbysam.com I really like the puzzles

Look at our first group photo in 2025! We celebrated Bettina's Leibniz award together and enjoyed the beautiful weather of early summer with BBQ ☀️🌲 Here’s to more breakthroughs, sunshine, and sizzling science this year!

New paper just dropped in JACS! 🧪 How does CALF-20 actually changes its bulk structure when exposed to CO₂ & H₂O? Thanks to in situ lab X-ray diffraction, you can now check our latest insights! 👇 🔗 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/... #Chemsky

👏Congrats to Konni, Hannes and our colleagues from the @lotschgroup.bsky.social, whose paper "Predict before You Precipitate: Learning Templating Effects in Hybrid Antimony and Bismuth Halides" is now online on Chem. Mater. @pubs.acs.org!👏 🔗Link: pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.... 📝Paper digest: 👇

Predict before you Precipitate! 🤖🧪 Excited to share our new work! We used machine learning to predict the crystal structure of hybrid antimony and bismuth halides. Great collaboration between our colleagues at @fhi-mpg.bsky.social and @lotschgroup.bsky.social pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/... #chemsky

The advantages and disadvantages of forgoing the crystalline state:

common knowledge among chemists: compressed gas cylinders basically last forever. some date back to WW2. those used in Nazi Germany (Linde) were marked with swastikas. after the war, the swastikas were defaced into "windowpanes" ⊞ — you can still find such cylinders in the wild today. #chemsky ⚗️🧪

Cool to see the single optical axis in these crystals #chemsky

Sunlight + COFs = Battery? ☀️🔋 Fresh off the press ! 📢📰 Check out our newest work on optoionic charge storage in COFs! #chemsky #energy #COFs

Congrats again to Bettina for being awarded the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Award! 🎉 The group is extremely proud! Check out her portrait video ⬇️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=jY47...

Introducing the exciting collaborative work led by Dang Wook Kim on therapeutic microrobots coated with COF!🚚💊 advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... A huge thanks to our amazing collaborators for making this possible! @mpi-is.bsky.social x @ethzurich.bsky.social x @mpifkf.bsky.social 🤝

We were excited to be at the #HäkoConference2025 in Innsbruck with some of the team! 🤝✨ Learning, networking, and great science. 🧪 #chemsky @jabla.bsky.social

Last week, I had the amazing opportunity to give a lecture at the 36. Deutsche Zeolith-Tagung in Erlangen and present our progress on the topic of "Light-driven molecular motors in permanently porous Metal-Organic Frameworks".

You also geek out on disordered & defective materials? I and @hannabostroem.bsky.social are organizing a dedicated session at the coming 35th European #crystallography meeting: we'd love to see and showcase your research ✨ Submissions are open at ecm35.org until 30th April, consider joining us!

An alle, die meinen, mit Blick auf den politischen und gesellschaftlichen Rechtsruck wenig bewirken zu können: Das stimmt nicht! Lasst uns bitte die Handlungsräume erkennen und gut nutzen, die wir haben. Deshalb geht bitte morgen zur #btw2025, für die #Demokratie, gegen die extreme Rechte! #noAfD

Hello @bsky.app ! We are happy to finally be here and share our exciting science with the #Chemsky and broader community. Drop a follow to stay up to date on our cool nanoscience 🤏, innovative materials🔋and latest scientific discoveries 🧪!

Hi #Chemsky and #PerovSky I was wondering if anybody has a CIF file for CsBi3I10. It was reported in this paper for the first time: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

You are an undergraduate student from the global south and are interested in working at one of the world leading institutes for solid-state research? - apply via the COMPASS program of @mpifkf.bsky.social and get the chance for a fully funded 6-month internship - www.fkf.mpg.de/compass

What do #COF materials really look like? Well ... It's tricky. Check out our recent article about disorder effects in COFs and how refinements are important, yet not really straightforward...oftentimes coming up short from the big picture. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/... #Science #Chemsky

#38c3 interesting talk about current chip design and fabrication www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ndpp...

Another great talk from #38c3 about the space telescope Euclid www.youtube.com/watch?v=2x0W...

1/n Some time ago my colleague, excellent cook, and friend Ivan told me: "Cacio e pepe is the recipe that I screw up more often. Let's make a project studying systematically the physics of that sauce". Prepare to get cheesy, I'm glad to share the Cacio e paper preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2501.00536

Finally a scientifically optimized recipe for perfect cacio e pepe sauce #chemsky arxiv.org/pdf/2501.00536

Verdient 💐: Standing Ovations für den Vortrag einer der mutigsten Frauen des Landes, Anne Brorhilker von @finanzwende.bsky.social beim #38c3:

2024 konnten wir wichtige Nadelstich setzen. Das „Best of Informationsfreiheit“ gab es beim diesjährigen #38c3. @arnesemsrott.bsky.social präsentiert euch unsere Highlights des vergangen Jahr und zeigt auf, worauf es 2025 ankommt – Wir werden dranbleiben! media.ccc.de/v/38c3-das-i...

Check it out - Vincenzo Scamarcio at EPFL has built a *dual-arm* mobile robot for chemistry. Very cool! See @linkedin.com post here: tinyurl.com/5n8ffznt #chemsky #robots

Seit Jahren warnt Volksverpetzer vor dem Rechtsruck & der Desinformation in WELT. Wir wurden nicht ernst genommen, deren Journalisten beteiligten sich an Shitstorms gegen uns. Heute geht die Chefin des Meinungsressorts selbst, weil Musk dort Werbung für die AfD machen darf. Wir warnen nicht umsonst!

Another great blogpost. This time about the moon.

So, as a new member of the US National Committee for Crystallography, I've been tasked with looking into workforce development. So I'd like to ask you #chemsky peeps how you learned about crystallography? Reply and retweet, I wanna hear from as many of you as possible!

Interesting lab tour of the Tritium Laboratory at KIT www.youtube.com/watch?v=kosX...

I love Thursdays as it is #realtimechem experiment day in my first year chemistry lecture! Here you can see the ⏩ of a Briggs–Rauscher reaction; an oscillating version of the Iodine Clock #ChemSky 🧪🥽

Hey hey #Chemsky! 🧪 I'm gonna see if this works better than the other place to look for expert comments 🤗 I need someone who works in chirality and proteins for a story I'm working on - my DMs are open 📬 Reposts appreciated to boost visibility! Thanks 🙏🏼🔄

A new paper from our group! COFs are quite stable, but attention must be paid to whether or not the catalysts immobilized in them are stable. #pormatsky #chemsky onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

It’s always more fun to make nanocrystals on #FluorescenceFriday! 🧪⚗️ #ChemSky

Hi #ChemSky! Please enjoy this video from my first year #chemistry lecture demonstrating the principle of triboluminescence by crushing crystals of the copper complex, [Cu(NCS)(py)2(PPh3)]! 😍 This also works with simple quartz crystals #RealTimeChem 🧪🥽

OK #chemsky do your thing. I have an immediate PhD vacancy working on a MOF / crystallography / electron diffraction project with Syngenta. Home fees and stipend are covered. Spread the word!

Hey folks! I got a tattoo of my beloved PIEZO ion channel on my arm! Now I can show how they activate (flatten) under pressure by flexing—Will add a bit of performance art to my science talks 🧪🧠.
