Observation of Topological Chirality Switching Induced Freezing of a Skyrmion Crystal

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Using Lorentz Transmission electron microscopy, it is shown that in the insulating van der Waals ferromagnet, CrBr3, a magnetic field can cause Bloch skyrmionic bubbles to spontaneously switch their chirality. As achiral type‐II bubbles are an intermediate state, the bubbles rapidly elongate and shrink when switching, thereby inducing a freezing of the

Observation of Catalytic Variability of Single Enzyme Zeolitic Imidazole Framework‐8 Nanoparticles

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A microwell‐based fluorescence method characterizes the catalytic activity of single enzyme zeolitic imidazole framework‐8 (ZIF‐8) nanoparticles (NPs). Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) are loaded into ZIF‐8 NPs and reveal subpopulations of catalytic activity at single‐particle resolution.
