Two-dimensional (2D) room-temperature chiral multiferroic and magnetic topological materials are essential for constructing functional spintronic devices, yet their number is extremely limited. Here, by using the chiral and polar HPP (HPP = 4-(3-hydroxypyridin-4-yl)pyridin-3-ol) as an organic linker and transition metals (TM = Cr, Mo, W) as nodes, we predict a class of 2D TM(HPP) organometallic nanosheets that incorporate homochirality, room-temperature magnetism, ferroelectricity, and topological nodes. The homochirality is introduced by chiral HPP linkers, and the change in structural chirality induces a topological phase transition of Weyl phonons. The room-temperature magnetism arises from the strong - spin coupling between TM cations and HPP doublet anions. The ferroelectricity is attributed to the breaking of spatial inversion symmetry in the lattice structure. Additionally, by adjusting the type of TMs, these nanosheets show rich and tunable band structures. Notably, all predicted materials are topologically nontrivial, featuring a quadratic nodal point around the Fermi level.

Cancer, a significant threat to human lives, has been the target of research for several decades. Although conventional therapies have drawbacks, such as side effects, low efficacy, and weak targeting, they have been applied extensively due to a lack of effective alternatives. The emergence of nanotechnology in medicine has opened up new possibilities and offered promising solutions for cancer therapy.

Electronic address:

The functionalized architecture within the nanoreactor could dramatically change the electron transport and reaction efficiency of ECL during electrochemical processes. Here, we've devised a novel mixed-ligand strategy that combines co-reaction accelerator and morphologic regulator onto the same metal node. This innovative approach effectively addressed the critical issue that some co-reactants cannot be covalently linked due to their special states, while enhancing the stability and electroactivity of MOFs nanoreactors.

A convenient method was developed that allows for the synthesis of highly crystalline and porous imine-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs) in hours. The use of an apolar solvent in combination with a precise amount of water and acetic acid was crucial to obtain materials of optimal quality. Fifteen different COFs could be produced under the same reaction conditions, using a green solvent mixture of n-butanol, acetic acid and water at 70 °C for 16 hours with stirring.

In Situ Fe/Co/B Codoped MoS Ultrathin Nanosheets Enable Efficient Electrocatalytic Nitrogen Reduction.

The development of sustainable and effective electrochemical nitrogen fixation catalysts is crucial for the mitigation of the terrible energy consumption resulting from the Haber-Bosch process. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS) exhibits promise toward nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) on account of its similar structure to natural nitrogenases MoFe-co but still undergoes serious challenges with unsatisfactory catalytic performance resulted from limited active sites, conductivity, and selectivity. In this work, Fe/Co/B codoped MoS ultrathin nanosheets are synthesized and verified as excellent NRR catalysts with high activity, selectivity, and durability.
