Eggs of many species including those of echinoderms, amphibians and mammals exhibit an extensive extracellular matrix (ECM) that is important both in the reception of sperm and in providing a block to polyspermy after fertilization.In sea urchin eggs there are two distinctive coats, the vitelline layer which contains glycoprotein sperm receptors and the jelly layer that contains fucose sulfate glycoconjugates which trigger the acrosomal reaction and small peptides which act as chemoattractants for sperm. The vitelline layer (VL), as visualized by quick-freezing, deep-etching, and rotary-shadowing (QFDE-RS), is a fishnet-like structure, anchored to the plasma membrane by short posts. Orbiting above the VL are horizontal filaments which are thought to anchor the thicker jelly layer to the egg. Upon fertilization, the VL elevates and is transformed by cortical granule secretions into the fertilization envelope (FE). The rounded casts of microvilli in the VL are transformed into angular peaks and the envelope becomes coated inside and out with sheets of paracrystalline protein having a quasi-two dimensional crystalline structure.

This review presents the progress of the change of the PSK structure from 3 dimensional CH3NH3PbX3 to mixed cations or halides based PSKs and finally to Ruddlesden–Popper PSK two dimensional (2D) homologous structures regarding the lifetime improvement.

A detailed analysis of the intermolecular interactions of the crystalline structure of thiourea derivatives namely 1-(3-Methylbenzoyl)-3-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)-thiourea, N-(2-Furoyl)-N’-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)thiourea, 2-Methyl-N-[(3-methyl-2-pyridyl)-carbamothioyl]benzamide and 1-(4-Chlorobenzoyl)-3-(3-methylpyridin-2-yl)thiourea have been performed based on the Hirshfeld surfaces and their associated two-dimensional fingerprint plots. The result showed that the structures were stabilized by H···H, H···S, O···H, N···H, C–H···π, and π···π intermolecular interactions, which contribute mostly to the packing of the species in the crystal. The three largest contributions to the packing of the molecules in the crystals were provided by H···H, C–H···S and C··· H intermolecular interactions.
