Perpendicularly oriented iron porphyrins are absorbed onto a gold surface when interconnected long-chain diimidazolyl groups coordinate axially to the metal center from either side of the ring plane (see schematic representation). The stacking of the rings is simultaneously prevented. The monolayers have been characterized structurally and electrochemically.

Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) materials are known for their intriguing physical properties, but their rational design and synthesis remain a great challenge for chemists. In this work, we successfully synthesized a new non-centrosymmetric oxide, i.e.

Many of these proteins recognize not only the chemical structure of the membrane lipids, but the curvature of the surface, binding more strongly to more highly curved surfaces, or 'curvature sensing'. Curvature sensing by amphipathic helices is known to vary with membrane bending rigidity, but changes to lipid composition can simultaneously alter membrane thickness, spontaneous curvature, and leaflet symmetry, thus far preventing a systematic characterization of lipid composition on such curvature sensing through either experiment or simulation.

Effective modifications for the buried interface between self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and perovskites are vital for the development of efficient, stable inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and their tandem photovoltaics. Herein, an ionic-liquid-SAM hybrid strategy is developed to synergistically optimize the uniformity of SAMs and the crystallization of perovskites above. Specifically, an ionic liquid of 1-butyl-3-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-iumbis((trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl)amide (BMIMTFSI) is incorporated into the SAM solution, enabling reduced surface roughness, improved wettability, and a more evenly distributed surface potential of the SAM film.

The reduced dimensionality of thin transition metal dihalide films on single-crystal surfaces unlocks a diverse range of magnetic and electronic properties. However, achieving stoichiometric monolayer islands requires precise control over the growth conditions. In this study, we employ scanning probe microscopy to investigate the growth of MnI on Ag(111) via single-crucible evaporation.

The static Caco-2 monolayer is an extensively utilized model for predicting the permeability of small molecules during the drug development process. While these cells can differentiate and develop key functional and morphological features that emulate human enterocytes, they do not fully replicate the complexity of human intestinal physiology. In this study, we investigated functional and morphological aspects of Caco-2 cells, alongside their transcriptomic profiles, with a particular emphasis on genes encoding drug-metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters.
