- The crystallization of thin continuous silicalite-1 films on modified gold surfaces prepared at 100°C in clear precursor solutions has been studied by grazing angle X-ray diffractometry, infrared spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, scanning electron microscopy, Kr adsorption and ellipsometry. The gold surfaces were pre-treated with a silane coupling agent, gamma-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane, and hydrolysed in an acidic solution, pH < 4, to create a modified negatively charged interface on which positively charged colloidal silicalite-1 seed crystals were adsorbed. The colloidal seed crystals are believed to be preferentially adsorbed with their {010} face parallel to the Au surface. Continued growth of the oriented seed crystals in a following hydrothermal step results in the formation of a continuous thin oriented crystalline film. The mechanism for the formation of silicalite-1 films on Au is discussed

- Stable colloidal suspensions containing discrete crystals of zeolite Beta with particle sizes less than 150 nm were synthesized within a wide composition range. Crystallization of colloidal zeolite Beta was facilitated by low water and sodium contents and by high TEAOH contents. Solid samples obtained after drying were characterized using XRD and FT-IR. Thin (ca. 130 nm) films of zeolite Beta were grown on a Ta-substrate using colloidal crystals of zeolite Beta as seeds

- BioMAX is the first macromolecular crystallography beamline at the MAX IV Laboratory 3 GeV storage ring, which is the first operational multi-bend achromat storage ring. Due to the low-emittance storage ring, BioMAX has a parallel, high-intensity X-ray beam, even when focused down to 20 μm × 5 μm using the bendable focusing mirrors. The beam is tunable in the energy range 5-25 keV using the in-vacuum undulator and the horizontally deflecting double-crystal monochromator. BioMAX is equipped with an MD3 diffractometer, an ISARA high-capacity sample changer and an EIGER 16M hybrid pixel detector. Data collection at BioMAX is controlled using the newly developed MXCuBE3 graphical user interface, and sample tracking is handled by ISPyB. The computing infrastructure includes data storage and processing both at MAX IV and the Lund University supercomputing center LUNARC. With state-of-the-art instrumentation, a high degree of automation, a user-friendly control system interface and remote operation, BioMAX provides an excellent facility for most macromolecular crystallography experiments. Serial crystallography using either a high-viscosity extruder injector or the MD3 as a fixed-target scanner is already implemented. The serial crystallography activities at MAX IV Laboratory will be further developed at the microfocus beamline MicroMAX, when it comes into operation in 2022. MicroMAX will have a 1 μm × 1 μm beam focus and a flux up to 1015 photons s with main applications in serial crystallography, room-temperature structure determinations and time-resolved experiments.

- Stable colloidal suspensions containing discrete TS-1 crystals with average crystal sizes less than 100 nm and with a narrow particle size distribution have been synthesized from clear homogeneous solutions. The products were characterized with respect to crystallinity, crystal size and size distribution, Ti incorporation, specific surface areas, the nature of the Ti species in the products, and the colloidal crystals surface electric charge. The influence of several parameters including synthesis mixture composition and crystallization temperature on crystal size and Ti incorporation were investigated. The synthesis of colloidal crystals with an average size less than 100 nm is favored by low crystallization temperatures (100°C), a highly basic environment, concentrated mixtures, and low Ti contents in the synthesis solutions. The maximum incorporation of tetrahedrally coordinated Ti was 0.84 mol %. High crystallization temperatures (>100°C) favor products with a low Si/Ti molar ratio, but larger crystals are formed, >100 nm, and octahedrally coordinated Ti and extra-framework Ti are detected. A preliminary investigation of the clear hydrolyzed precursor solution and its freeze-dried amorphous equivalent showed that small particles with an average size of 4.8 nm exist in the solution and a certain degree of ordering resembling the MFI structure was present in the precursor particles
