Redirecting Excited‐State Proton Transfer Through Supramolecular Polymerization in Nanoconfinement

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Supramolecular confinement redirects the excited‐state proton transfer pathway of an amphoteric emitter. In water, the molecule undergoes ESPD, whereas co‐assembly with γ‐cyclodextrin forms nanotubes that template slip‐stacked emitter pairs and enable ESIMPT. Structural and photophysical characterization of the assemblies shows that the preorganization

Quasi-periodic and periodic photonic crystals: A simulation study of their self-assembly, stability and photonic properties

, 2017
In this thesis we study the self-assembly, stability and photonic properties of colloidal photonic crystals. We show that stable photonic crystals can be self-assembled using spherical colloidal particles interacting with a simple pair potential.

Harnessing Machine Learning to Understand and Design Disordered Solids

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This review maps the dynamic evolution of machine learning in disordered solids, from structural representations to generative modeling. It explores how deep learning and model explainability transform property prediction into profound physical insight.

Uncovering Aggregation‐Induced Emission in Carbon Dots for Color‐Changing Hydrogels and Information Encryption

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Red‐emissive carbon dots (R‐CDs) exhibiting aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) and aggregation‐caused quenching (ACQ) effects are synthesized from citric acid and urea. They display weak blue fluorescence in water but strong red emission in DMF due to aggregation.

Multi‐Property Machine Learning Models to Accelerate the Transition Toward Bio‐Based Emulsion Polymers

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A machine learning framework simultaneously predicts four critical properties of monomers for emulsion polymerization: propagation rate constant, reactivity ratios, glass transition temperature, and water solubility. These tools can be used to systematically identify viable bio‐based monomer pairs as replacements for conventional formulations, with ...

Clean Cut (adaptive, multimodal surgical infection prevention programme) for low‐resource settings: a prospective quality improvement study

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
Clean Cut is a multimodal, adaptive, checklist‐based infection prevention programme designed to improve compliance with six critical perioperative infection prevention practices. After introducing the programme at five hospitals in Ethiopia, compliance with critical infection prevention standards significantly improved and the relative risk of ...

Comment on “Can Charge Transfer Across C─H···O Hydrogen Bonds Stabilize Oil Droplets in Water?”

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Nanoscale oil droplets in water are kinetically stable and charged, with a pH dependent electrophoretic mobility. Although the source of this charge is agreed to arise from water, 2 main hypotheses remain: OH− adsorption or electronic charge density displaced via hydrogen bonds. Molecular surface specific experiments are reviewed, that all point to the

Soft Condensed Matter (Materia Condensata Soffice)

, 2004
This article was written for a multi-volume History of Science, and published in Italian translation: Storia della Scienza, Volume IX, La Grande Scienza, pp 645-656 (published by Istituto della Enciclopedia Italiana, Fondata da Giovanni Treccani, 2003). In it, I describe the evolution of soft matter physics as a discipline during the 20th century.
