  • Producing materials capable of simultaneously absorbing hydrogen and releasing it on-demand is challenging. An air-stable composite material consisting of magnesium nanocrystals embedded in a polymer matrix is now shown to exhibit both high hydrogen-storage density and rapid kinetics.

  • Modifiers of diverse materials exhibit structures or compositions that differ from a solute molecule but often contain similar functional motifs that facilitate molecular recognition for modifier binding to crystal surfaces. Here the authors examine the intrinsic capability of tautomers, or structural isomers, to operate as crystal growth inhibitors.’

  • The authors introduce an analytical approach for quantitative analysis of 3D atom dynamics during electron microscopy. They image a Co-Mo-S nanocrystal with 1.5 Å resolution, and observe chemical transformations caused by beam-stimulated vibrations.

  • The length scale at which phenomena such as ferroelectricity is still present is of fundamental relevance for nanoscale applications. A high-resolution transmission electron microscopy study now shows how ferroelectricity can persist in nanoparticles down to about 5 nm in diameter, pointing the way towards the ultimate size limit for ferroelectric applications.

  • Peptoids are synthetic polymers designed to mimic the structure and functionality of proteins. When a one-to-one blend of two oppositely charged peptoids is mixed in solution, giant, 2.7-nm-thick free-floating sheets are formed. The sheets can specifically bind a corresponding protein, and offer potential for producing functional two-dimensional nanostructures in the future.
