  • Van der Waals two dimensional materials made of graphene and covalent organic frameworks have potential for advanced electronics applications and a fundamental understanding of the formation process of these materials is desirable. Here, the authors revealed the main aspects that influence the twisted stacking growth of pyrene diboronic acid covalent organic frameworks on graphite with a hybrid molecular mechanics force field.

  • Molecules arranged in close proximity to a surface form molecular layers, exhibiting distinct properties. However, the creation of these layers is challenging. Here, the authors present a technique for generating molecular layers through crystallization induced by gas blowing onto a surface.

  • Foldamers are synthetic oligomers that adopt folded conformations through non-covalent intramolecular interactions. Here, Cariniet al. describe a family of foldamers with a large number of anthracene units that are able to transport charge efficiently at the single-molecule level.

  • On-surface synthesis of two-dimensional polymers is a useful strategy for designing the lattice, orbital and spin symmetries of materials, but controlling their layer stacking remains challenging. Now, a method to synthesize bilayer two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks at a liquid–substrate interface through monomer condensation has been developed; large-area moiré superlattices emerge from the twisted bilayer stacking.

  • The higher negative Seebeck coefficients (S) at 30 °C of as-received carbon nanofibers (CNFs) with respect to their polypropylene carbon nanofiber (PP/CNF) melt-mixed composites are explained by a slight electron donation from the outer graphitic shells of the CNFs to the PP molecules. Our study denotes that, contrary to expectations, insulating polymers may play a non-negligible role on the final S-values of conductive polymer composites composed of carbon-based nanostructures.
