Topological indices are numerical invariants that provide key insights into the structural properties of molecular graphs and are crucial in predicting physio-chemical and biological activities. This paper applies established computational methodologies for analyzing benzenoid networks and their application to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) through degree-based topological indices computed via M-polynomial and NM-polynomial approaches. By examining tessellations, including linear chain, hexagonal, rhomboidal, and triangular configurations alongside their line graphs, this work highlights the influence of molecular topology on biological activity.

Synthesis of 2D quasi-hexagonal phase C (qHP C) has opened avenues for its application as a novel catalytic support. This study investigates the structure, stability, and anisotropic properties of Cu clusters anchored on the qHP C surface through density functional theory calculations. Our findings reveal that the Cu cluster preferentially occupies the intrinsic holes of the qHP C via one of its tetrahedral faces, resulting in enhanced stability and conductivity, with a significantly reduced band gap of 0.

Despite numerous studies of water structures at the two-dimensional water-solid interfaces, much less is known about the phase behaviors of water at the one-dimensional (1D) liquid-solid interface. In this work, the 1D interfacial water phase behavior on the outer surface of carbon nanotube-like (CNT-like) models is studied by tuning the Lennard-Jones potential parameter ε of the surface atoms at various temperatures. Extensive molecular dynamics simulations show that ice nanotubes (INTs) can be spontaneously formed on CNT-like model surfaces without nanoconfinement.

Two-dimensional materials with a combination of a moderate bandgap, highly anisotropic carrier mobility, and a planar structure are highly desirable for nanoelectronic devices. This study predicts a planar BeP monolayer with hexagonal symmetry that meets the aforementioned desirable criteria using the CALYPSO method and first-principles calculations. Calculations of electronic properties demonstrate that the hexagonal BeP monolayer is an intrinsic semiconductor with a direct band gap of approximately 0.

New types of metal-organic framework (MOF) materials have great potential in solving the current global dilemma on energy, environment, and medical care. Herein, based on two kinds of biomolecule-MOFs (Bio-MOFs) with favorable biocompatibility and degradation-reconstruction characteristics, we have established a self-powered muti-functional device to achieve an efficient and broad-spectrum environmental energy collection and biomedical applications. Combining Zn(II) and carnosine-based Zn-Car_MOF possessing a high piezoelectric response (d = 11.
