  • A fundamental limitation for the practical use of dynamic nuclear polarization using photo-excited triplet state - the need of strictly oriented single crystal - is overcome in this work through the development of fullerene-based polarizing agents.

  • Carotenes are naturally abundant, widely studied unsaturated hydrocarbon pigments but their metal-binding ability has been virtually unexplored. Here, the authors demonstrate that they can be used to reversibly assemble and align homo- and hetero-metallic decanuclear chain complexes.

  • A complex containing five atoms of iron is shown to be a highly efficient and robust water oxidation catalyst owing to the presence of redox flexibility, which enables charge accumulation and electron transfer, and the presence of adjacent active sites that enables intramolecular O–O bond formation.

  • Though electret materials are attractive for realizing flexible mechanoelectrical devices, these materials are typically solid films. Here, the authors report stretchable ‘liquid-electret’ devices consisting solvent-free liquid porphyrins that show piezoelectric and electroacoustic functionality.

  • Singlet fission — converting a singlet exciton to two triplet excitons — may be useful for improving photovoltaic efficiency. Ultrafast spectroscopic measurements and quantum chemical calculations have now uncovered aspects of the process critical to it occurring efficiently, including the role of intermolecular vibrations and symmetry breaking, and the location of a conical intersection on the excited-state potential-energy surface.

  • Many-electron quantum modelling of the metal clusters in metalloenzymes is a long-standing ambition for theoreticians. Here, using the density matrix renormalization group, the many-electron wavefunctions of the Mn4CaO5 cluster of photosystem II are computed, providing new insights into the electronic structure and reactivity at the level of many-particle quantum mechanics and entanglement.
