A transition-metal-free 5- exo- dig asymmetric cyclization of α-amino ester enolates onto bromoalkynes provided a product with excellent enantioselectivity via the memory of chirality concept. This strategy was applied to a concise total synthesis of (-)-runanine and a formal synthesis of (-)-8-demethoxyrunanine and (-)-cepharatine D.

Stubborn biofilm infections pose serious threats to public health. Clinical practices highly rely on mechanical debridement and antibiotics, which often fail and lead to persistent and recurrent infections. The main culprits are 1) persistent bacteria reviving, colonizing, and rejuvenating biofilms, and 2) secondary pathogen exposure, particularly in individuals with chronic diseases.

Chiroptical Synaptic Perovskite Memristor as Reconfigurable Physical Unclonable Functions.

ACS Nano

December 2024

Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Yonsei University, Seoul 03722, Republic of Korea.

Physical unclonable functions (PUFs), often referred to as digital fingerprints, are emerging as critical elements in enhancing hardware security and encryption. While significant progress has been made in developing optical and memory-based PUFs, integrating reconfigurability with sensitivity to circularly polarized light (CPL) remains largely unexplored. Here, we present a chiroptical synaptic memristor (CSM) as a reconfigurable PUF, leveraging a two-dimensional organic-inorganic halide chiral perovskite.

Antiferromagnetic materials have several unique properties, such as a vanishingly small net magnetization, which generates weak dipolar fields and makes them robust against perturbation from external magnetic fields and rapid magnetization dynamics, as dictated by the geometric mean of their exchange and anisotropy energies. However, experimental and theoretical techniques to detect and manipulate the antiferromagnetic order in a fully electrical manner must be developed to enable advanced spintronic devices with antiferromagnets as their active spin-dependent elements. Among the various antiferromagnetic materials, conducting antiferromagnets offer high electrical and thermal conductivities and strong electron-spin-phonon interactions.

Magnetic skyrmions, topologically stabilized chiral spin textures in magnetic thin films, have garnered considerable interest due to their efficient manipulation and resulting potential as efficient nanoscale information carriers. One intriguing approach to address the challenge of tuning skyrmion properties involves using chiral molecules. Chiral molecules can locally manipulate magnetic properties by inducing magnetization through spin exchange interactions and by creating spin currents.

Chiral noncollinear magnetic nanostructures, such as skyrmions, are intriguing spin configurations with significant potential for magnetic memory technologies. However, the limited availability of 2D magnetic materials that host skyrmions with Curie temperatures above room temperature presents a major challenge for practical implementation. Chromium tellurides exhibit diverse spin configurations and remarkable stability under ambient conditions, making them a promising platform for fundamental spin physics research and the development of innovative 2D spintronic devices.
