Dual-function artificial molecular motors performing rotation and photoluminescence

Lukas Pfeifer

Molecular machines have caused one of the greatest paradigm shifts in chemistry, and by powering artificial mechanical molecular systems and enabling autonomous motion, they are expected to be at the heart of exciting new technologies. One of the biggest c ...

Multivalent Pattern Recognition Through Engineering of Spatial Tolerance in DNA-Based Nanomaterials

Hale Bila

Strength in numbers, combining many weak interactions into an overall strong connection, is the fundamental principle of multivaleny. This concept has been exploiting for the engineering of super-selective cell-targeting materials, which generally display ...

Single nucleotide polymorphism determines constitutive versus inducible type VI secretion in Vibrio cholerae

Melanie Blokesch, Sandrine Stutzmann, Alexis Joseph Proutière, Loriane Bader, Natalia Carolina Drebes Dorr, Milena Jadwiga Jaskolska

Vibrio cholerae is a well-studied human pathogen that is also a common inhabitant of marine habitats. In both environments, the bacterium is subject to interbacterial competition. A molecular nanomachine that is often involved in such competitive behavior ...

Microscopic picture of paraelectric perovskites from structural prototypes

Nicola Marzari, Giovanni Pizzi, Michele Kotiuga, Boris Kozinsky

We highlight with first-principles molecular dynamics the persistence of intrinsic < 111 > Ti off-centerings for BaTiO3 in its cubic paraelectric phase. Intriguingly, these are inconsistent with the Pm (3) over barm space group often used to atomistically ...

Modeling non-covalent interactions in condensed phase

Veronika Juraskova

The modeling of non-covalent interactions, solvation effects, and chemical reactions in complex molecular environment is a challenging task. Current state-of-the-art approaches often rely on static computations using implicit solvent models and harmonic ap ...

Multiple Surface Site Three-Dimensional Structure Determination of a Supported Molecular Catalyst

Pierrick Berruyer, Moreno Lelli, David Benjamin Roger Antoine Gajan, Zhuoran Wang

The structural characterization of supported molecular catalysts is challenging due to the low density of active sites and the presence of several organic/organometallic surface groups resulting from the often complex surface chemistry associated with supp ...

Photochemical Alkynylations with Hypervalent Iodine Reagents

Stephanie Grace Elizabeth Amos

Over the past twenty years, photochemical transformations have gained in importance in organic chemistry. Indeed, the development of photocatalysts has allowed the use of visible light as an energy source for chemical transformations. More specifically, ph ...

Structural Order of the Molecular Adlayer Impacts the Stability of Nanoparticle-on-Mirror Plasmonic Cavities

Christophe Marcel Georges Galland, Magalí Alejandra Lingenfelder, Sachin Suresh Verlekar, Fernando Pablo Cometto, Karla Banjac, Aqeel Ahmed

Immense field enhancement and nanoscale confinement of light are possible within nanoparticle-on-mirror (NPoM) plasmonic resonators, which enable novel optically activated physical and chemical phenomena and render these nanocavities greatly sensitive to m ...

Quantum vibronic effects on the electronic properties of solid and molecular carbon

Michele Ceriotti, François Gygi, Han Yang

We study the effect of quantum vibronic coupling on the electronic properties of carbon allotropes, including molecules and solids, by combining path integral first principles molecular dynamics (FPMD) with a colored noise thermostat. In addition to avoidi ...

Membrane Activity of a DNA-Based Ion Channel Depends on the Stability of Its Double-Stranded Structure

Diana Kornelia Morzy, Himanshu Joshi

DNA nanotechnology has emerged as a promising method for designing spontaneously inserting and fully controllable synthetic ion channels. However, both insertion efficiency and stability of existing DNA-based membrane channels leave much room for improveme ...
