In Situ STEM Observation of Phase Transition Triggered by Mo Migration in MoTe.

ACS Nano

State Key Laboratory of Advanced Technology for Materials Synthesis and Processing, Wuhan University of Technology, Wuhan 430070, China.

The heterostructure of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), such as one-dimensional (1D) nanowires embedded in two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets, has drawn much research attention due to its unique electronic, spintronic, magnetic, and catalytic properties. The general approach for preparing such a heterostructure is through electron beam lithography or annealing on the 2D template, triggering direct formation of the 1D component within the 2D matrix. However, the thermodynamic mechanism behind the transition from 2D to 1D is still not well clarified.

Universal, Time-Cost-Effective, and Inside-Out Strategy for Synthesis of Plant-Based Flow Catalysis Microreactors.

ACS Appl Mater Interfaces

Key Laboratory of High Efficient Processing of Bamboo of Zhejiang Province, China National Bamboo Research Center, Hangzhou 310012, China.

The utilization of plant-based flow catalytic microreactors has been increasingly gaining traction in the fields of water treatment, energy generation, and biotechnological science due to their inherent channel structures, renewable properties, and environmentally friendly nature. The conventional outside-in strategy for synthesizing plant-based monolithic microreactors typically entails prolonged hydrothermal modification, extensive chemical usage, or energy-intensive equipment. The present study presents a universal inside-out strategy for the rapid synthesis of monolithic catalytic microreactors derived from plant materials.

Magnetic Supramolecular Spherical Arrays: Direct Formation of Micellar Cubic Mesophase by Lanthanide Metallomesogens with 7-Coordination Geometry.

Adv Sci (Weinh)

May 2024

Department of Applied Chemistry and Biotechnology, Graduate School of Engineering, Chiba University, 1-33 Yayoi-cho, Inage-ku, Chiba, 263-8522, Japan.

Here, an unprecedented phenomenon in which 7-coordinate lanthanide metallomesogens, which align via hydrogen bonds mediated by coordinated HO molecules, form micellar cubic mesophases at room temperature, creating body-centered cubic (BCC)-type supramolecular spherical arrays, is reported. The results of experiments and molecular dynamics simulations reveal that spherical assemblies of three complexes surrounded by an amorphous alkyl domain spontaneously align in an energetically stable orientation to form the BCC structure. This phenomenon differs greatly from the conventional self-assembling behavior of 6-coordinated metallomesogens, which form columnar assemblies due to strong intermolecular interactions.
