Published: September 2002

Silylene-spaced donor-acceptor divinylarene copolymers are synthesized by hydrosilylation of bisalkynes 7 with bisvinylsilanes 3; efficient intrachain energy transfer between donor-acceptor chromophores is observed.

It has become increasingly evident that the conformational distributions of intrinsically disordered proteins or regions are strongly dependent on their amino acid compositions and sequence. To facilitate a systematic investigation of these sequence-ensemble relationships, we selected a set of 16 naturally occurring intrinsically disordered regions of identical length but with large differences in amino acid composition, hydrophobicity, and charge patterning. We probed their conformational ensembles with single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET), complemented by circular dichroism (CD) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy as well as small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS).

Article Synopsis
  • - The study presents synthesis and analysis of formamidinium copper formate (FMD-Cu), a magnetic material with a perovskite-like structure, revealing its quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnetic properties.
  • - FMD-Cu shows a Néel temperature (TN) of 12.0 K and a strong intrachain coupling constant, indicating it behaves as an effective one-dimensional magnet.
  • - Heat capacity measurements and density functional theory (DFT) calculations support the presence of magnetic excitations associated with its antiferromagnetic ordering and highlight Jahn-Teller distortions in its copper ions as influencing factors for magnetic interactions.

Building artificial neurons and synapses is key to achieving the promise of energy efficiency and acceleration envisioned for brain-inspired information processing. Emulating the spiking behavior of biological neurons in physical materials requires precise programming of conductance nonlinearities. Strong correlated solid-state compounds exhibit pronounced nonlinearities such as metal-insulator transitions arising from dynamic electron-electron and electron-lattice interactions.

Controlling the distribution of rings on polymer axles, such as α-cyclodextrin (αCD) on polyethylene glycol (PEG), is paramount in imparting robust mechanical properties to slide-ring gels and polyrotaxane-based networks. Previous experiments demonstrated that the functionalization of polymer ends could modulate the coverage of αCDs on PEG. To explore the design rule, we propose a multi-scale framework for predicting αCD assembly on bare and functionalized PEG.

Article Synopsis
  • * A new model is developed to analyze the effects of chemical structure, long-range interactions, and repulsion among charge carriers (holes) in order to understand hole distribution in these materials.
  • * The findings indicate that the model accurately captures the hole density profile and energy distribution in doped PEDOT, while also revealing that spin configuration influences the properties of the chains based on chain length, carrier density, and disorder.
