Methane Activation by B5+ Toward a CB5H2+ Isomer Containing a Planar Tetracoordinate Carbon Atom

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Methane activation by B5+ yields CB5H2+ through H2 elimination. Electronic‐structure calculations connect the nascent dehydrogenation product to a low‐lying isomer containing a planar tetracoordinate carbon atom. ABSTRACT Planar tetracoordinate carbon (ptC) motifs have been identified predominantly in the global‐minimum structures of gas‐phase clusters

Large‐Area Flat Optics Color Routing in Tilted Arrays of 2D Semiconductor Nanostripes

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
We develop a scalable flat optics platform exploiting self‐organised ion‐beam sputtering and maskless glancing‐angle deposition to fabricate centimetre‐scale arrays of tilted MoS2 nanostripes. The engineered geometry activates Rayleigh anomalies, guided modes, and Mie resonances, enabling highly directional color routing and enhanced light harvesting ...

pH‐Driven Actuation of Unmodified DNA Origami Rectangles

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Unmodified DNA origami rectangles exhibit a reversible transition between planar and tubular states driven by near‐neutral pH changes. This behavior arises from crossover‐mediated mechanical coupling of overwound DNA and extends to dimers and nanoribbons, enabling the formation of nanotube architectures without added motifs or chemical modification ...
