Deterministic formation of carbon-functionalized quantum emitters in hexagonal boron nitride

Scalable fabrication of quantum emitters with precise spatial positioning remains challenging. Here the authors present a scalable method for the deterministic fabrication of high-quality single-photon emitter arrays in hexagonal boron nitride, using nano-indentation to enable site-specific impurity insertion.

Materializing efficient methanol oxidation via electron delocalization in nickel hydroxide nanoribbon

Development of suitable methanol oxidation reaction catalysts for direct methanol fuel cells is challenging due to sluggish kinetics. Herein, authors show that four-coordinate nickel atoms form charge-transfer orbitals near the Fermi energy level, leading to remarkable methanol oxidation activity.

Molecular understanding of the self-assembly of an N-isopropylacrylamide delivery system for the loading and temperature-dependent release of curcumin

Curcumin is a natural substance with beneficial pharmacological properties, but its poor solubility, instability and poor absorption hinder its use as a therapeutic agent in the body. Here, the authors use quantum chemical calculations and molecular simulations to explore the self-assembly of N-isopropylacrylamide for its use in the loading and release of curcumin.
