Mesoporous Thin Film Architectures: Addressing Material Demands through Molecular Self-Assembly

Mesoporous thin films spark interest across a wide range of disciplines due to their tunable nanostructures, large internal surface areas, and strong compatibility with planar optical, electronic, and microfluidic devices. While attention in the porous materials community has shifted toward macroporous or disordered nanoporous systems, a resurgence in mesoporous thin film research is underway, driven by new molecular self-assembly methods, advanced materials chemistry, and improved characterization techniques. The integration of high-χN block copolymer design, kinetically persistent micelle templating, and postdeposition processing protocols now allows control over structural parameters such as pore size, wall thickness, porosity, and connectivity. These advances have overcome many of the thermodynamic and processing constraints that previously limited widespread adoption. Rather than serving only as high-surface-area supports, mesoporous thin films are engineered as active interfaces where responsive chemistries and nanoscale confinement act in tandem. Embedding switchable ligands, thermoresponsive polymers, redox mediators, or ion-selective groups directly within the pore walls enables real-time control over transport, optical, and electrochemical properties. These capabilities open up new directions in adaptive coatings, gated membranes, and fast-response biosensors. To further expand their functional scope, mesoporous films are integrated into hierarchical and multicomponent architectures. Techniques such as triblock terpolymer templating, crack-directed assembly, and nanoimprint lithography allow for control over spatial organization on the micron and submicron scale and pore system orientation. This enables programmable anisotropy, enhanced molecular diffusion, and wavelength-selective photonic behavior, essential for next-generation sensing, catalysis, and energy applications. Such structural and functional complexity requires equally sophisticated characterization. Multimodal and in situ techniques can track material dynamics under operational conditions. Recent progress includes extended-range ellipsometric porosimetry (EP) for hierarchical architectures, vacuum EP for interface energetics, time-resolved EP for diffusion kinetics, and correlative AFM-SAXS mapping. The introduction of advanced neutron-based spectroscopies, particularly quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS), promises to provide real-time access to ion transport dynamics and segmental motion under nanoscale confinement, offering a path toward deeper mechanistic understanding of structure-performance correlations in mesoporous systems. This Account reflects the technical advances made and the interdisciplinary collaborations that have shaped our collective vision. The particular dimensions of mesopores enable us to subtly tune interactions at the molecular, interfacial, and mesoscopic levels that permit us to harness nanoconfinement. What emerges is a versatile, modular platform capable of chemical gating, energy transduction, and sensing with a level of tunability unmatched by other porous materials. We highlight critical challenges including the need for more robust large-area processing, a deeper understanding of dynamic behavior under cycling, and better integration with device-level architectures. Our strategies support the transition of mesoporous thin films into active high-performance components in next-generation energy, environmental, and biomedical systems.

Crystal structure and catalytic mechanism of drimenol synthase, an unusual bifunctional terpene cyclase–phosphatase

Drimenol synthase fromAquimarina spongiae(AsDMS) is a highly unusual chimera that integrates two distinct, sequential isoprenoid processing activities within a single polypeptide chain. AsDMS catalyzes the class II cyclization of farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) to form drimenyl diphosphate, which then undergoes enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis to yield drimenol, a bioactive sesquiterpene alcohol with antifungal and anticancer properties. Here, we report the X-ray crystal structures of AsDMS and its complex with a sesquiterpene thiol. The AsDMS structure exhibits a didomain architecture consisting of a terpene cyclase β domain and a haloacid dehalogenase-like phosphatase domain, with two distinct active sites located on opposite sides of the protein. Mechanistic studies show that dephosphorylation of the drimenyl diphosphate intermediate proceeds through stepwise hydrolysis such that two equivalents of inorganic phosphate rather than inorganic pyrophosphate are coproducts of the reaction sequence. When the AsDMS reaction is performed in H 2 18 O, 18 O is not incorporated into drimenol, indicating that the hydroxyl oxygen of drimenol originates from the prenyl oxygen of FPP rather than a water molecule from bulk solution. These results correct a mechanistic proposal previously advanced by another group. Surprisingly, AsDMS exhibits substrate promiscuity, catalyzing the conversion of the slowly reactive substrate mimic farnesyl-S-thiolodiphosphate into cyclic and linear sesquiterpene products. Structural and mechanistic insights gained from AsDMS illustrate the functional diversity of terpene biosynthetic enzymes and provide a foundation for engineering “designer cyclase” assemblies capable of generating a wide variety of terpenoid products.

Structural basis of divergent substrate recognition and inhibition of human neurolysin

A zinc metallopeptidase neurolysin (Nln) processes diverse bioactive peptides to regulate signaling in the mammalian nervous system. To understand how Nln interacts with various peptides with dissimilar sequences, we determined crystal structures of Nln in complex with diverse peptides including dynorphins, angiotensin, neurotensin, and bradykinin. The structures show that Nln binds these peptides in a large dumbbell-shaped interior cavity constricted at the active site, making minimal structural changes to accommodate different peptide sequences. The structures also show that Nln readily binds similar peptides with distinct registers, which can determine whether the peptide serves as a substrate or a competitive inhibitor. We analyzed the activities and binding of Nln toward various forms of dynorphin A peptides, which highlights the promiscuous nature of peptide binding and shows how dynorphin A (1–13) potently inhibits the Nln activity while dynorphin A (1–8) is efficiently cleaved. Our work provides insights into the broad substrate specificity of Nln and may aid in the future design of small molecule modulators for Nln.

Interplay between Cation “Coloring” and Stereochemically Active Lone Pairs in AgBiS 2 Thin Films

Solution-processed AgBiS 2 thin films were fabricated using novel thiol− amine precursor inks to investigate the stereochemical activity of Bi 3+ 6s 2 lone pairs and their impact on the structure. A dual-space analysis combining Bragg diffraction and hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES) revealed a rock salt-like average structure with local distortions linked to cation coloring. Density functional theory (DFT) and crystal orbital Hamilton population (COHP) analyses confirmed that local Bi-rich and Ag-rich nanodomains amplify stereochemical activity, whereas more mixed and cation-order nanodomains are less stereochemically active. This local, nanoscopic mixing of segregated and ordered domains would indeed explain an average Fm3̅m structure that is rock salt-like and that does not manifest the full anharmonicity and noncentrosymmetry evidenced in canonical structures with stereochemical expression. These findings provide insights into the local structural and electronic complexities governing the optoelectronic properties of AgBiS 2 thin films.

One-Dimensional Electron Gas Confined along Nanowrinkles in a Unidirectional Charge Density Wave Material

Two-dimensional (2D) materials inherently exhibit instabilities. Structurally, this may lead to modulations along the third dimension, e.g., wrinkles. Electronically, 2D instabilities can manifest themselves as charge density waves (CDWs). Although wrinkles can alter anisotropic electronic structures susceptible to forming CDWs, less is known about their impact on broken-symmetry ground states. Here, in this study, using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, we investigate the CDW states on the wrinkled surface of DyTe 3 . We identify elongated, parallel nanoscale wrinkles stabilized by ribbon-shaped defects. Interestingly, the CDW order persists across the nanowrinkles with a gradual phase shift but is locally suppressed near the defects, where phase windings occur. In addition, these defects induce quantum confinement effects along the nanowrinkles, indicating the presence of one-dimensional metallic states with hole- like dispersion, while angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy identifies a gap along the wrinkle direction. We ascribe this discrepancy to strain-induced changes in the Fermi surface, which lead to the closure of the gap at the sites of the nanowrinkles. Taken together, our results underscore the complex interplay between structural features and Fermi surface topology, allowing for the deliberate manipulation of quantum states in strongly correlated systems via local crystal deformations.

Extraction of Vibration Data with Imaging

To date, the primary sensing technology used to measure the vibration response has been accelerometers and strain gages mounted directly to the structure and using either wired or, more recently, wireless telemetry. Cost issues with these sensors and the associated data acquisition systems typically limit the numbers that are deployed on in situ structures. Although there are a few structures with larger sensing counts that in some cases exceed over 1000 sensors, more typical numbers range from ten to one hundred sensors resulting in low spatial resolution when they are applied to physically large systems. When one considers that nuclear power plant structures usually have complex geometries, material properties, connectivity and boundary conditions, it is clear these current approaches to vibration measurements can only provide limited information about a system’s dynamics response characteristics. As an alternative, many non-contact measurement technologies have emerged, including point wise measurement methods such as Global Positioning System (GPS), microwave interferometry, and laser Doppler vibrometry (LDV), as well as simultaneous full-field measurement methods such as electronic speckle pattern interferometry, holography interferometry, and muon tomography, some of which can provide high spatial resolution measurements. Among these methods, digital video imaging techniques have emerged as a feasible solution for full-field vibration measurements that provide significantly more detailed dynamic response information because every pixel becomes a measurement point. Furthermore, recent advances in image processing and computer vision algorithms have been successfully used to process video data for experimental and operational modal analysis. Such full-field measurements have the potential to significantly improve many current structural assessment procedures including system identification (modal parameter estimation), structural health monitoring, load reconstruction, model validation, and model updating. Furthermore, more recent full-field imaging techniques can be accomplished with relatively low-cost, commercially-available off-the-shelf cameras. However, these measurement procedures have other limitations that must be considered such as the ability to only measure visibly accessible points on a structure and a more limited dynamic range and bandwidth than can be achieved with accelerometers or strain gages.

Theory meets experiment: Insights into structure and magnetic properties of Fe 1-x Ni x B alloy

Here, we studied the structural and magnetic properties of the solid solution Fe 1-x Ni x B through theoretical and experimental approaches. Powder X-ray diffraction, X-ray Pair Distribution Function analysis, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy reveal that the Fe 1-x Ni x B solid solution crystallizes in the β-FeB structure type up to x = 0.6–0.7 and exhibits anisotropic unit cell volume contraction with increasing Ni concentration. Magnetic measurements showed a transition from ferromagnetism to paramagnetism around x = 0.7. For x = 0.5, the low (< 0.3 μ B ) magnetic moments suggest itinerant magnetism despite the relatively high Curie temperature (up to 225 K). Theoretical calculations indicated different types of magnetic orderings depending on the Fe/Ni atomic order, with the antiferromagnetic state being stable for ordered FeNiB 2 , whereas the ground state is ferromagnetic for the disordered alloy. Calculations also predicted the coexistence of low- and high-spin states in Fe atoms around the composition with x = 0.5, in line with the experimental evidence from 57 Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy. The two magnetically distinct Fe sites for x = 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5 observed by 57 Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy can also be interpreted as two magnetically different regions or clusters. The formation of these clusters could affect the critical behavior near a quantum magnetic transition based on a potential ferromagnetic quantum critical point identified computationally and experimentally near x = 0.64. This work highlights the complex interplay between structure and magnetism in Fe 1-x Ni x B alloys, suggesting areas for future research on quantum critical behavior.

Data for: Subsurface Interface Structure Controlling Local Electronic Properties of Epitaxial Graphene on SiC(0001)

Recently realized high-mobility semiconducting epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide, provided an important step towards integration of the graphene-based system into active components in post-silicon micro- and nano-electronics. However, the exact atomic-scale structure and the complex bonding configurations of the first epitaxial graphene carbon layer remain an open problem. Our recent report has shed new light on understanding this interface, where the external transverse electric field-dependent dynamic switching behavior of the Cbuffer-SiC bonds was observed. Here, using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM and STS), we present the direct evidence of silicon (Si) vacancies at the interface and provide their distribution at the topmost reconstructed SiC(0001) layer. Experimental STM and density functional theory modeling data were used in the preparation of figures in a published article in the Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters. Files related to the figures and supplementary materials in the article are present in this dataset in .txt format.

De Novo Design of Proteins That Bind Naphthalenediimides, Powerful Photooxidants with Tunable Photophysical Properties

De novo protein design provides a framework to test our understanding of protein function and build proteins with cofactors and functions not found in nature. Here, we report the design of proteins designed to bind powerful photooxidants and the evaluation of the use of these proteins to generate diffusible small-molecule reactive species. Because excited-state dynamics are influenced by the dynamics and hydration of a photooxidant’s environment, it was important to not only design a binding site but also to evaluate its dynamic properties. Thus, we used computational design in conjunction with molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to design a protein, designated NBP (NDI Binding Protein), that held a naphthalenediimide (NDI), a powerful photooxidant, in a programmable molecular environment. Solution NMR confirmed the structure of the complex. We evaluated two NDI cofactors in this de novo protein using ultrafast pump–probe spectroscopy to evaluate light-triggered intra- and intermolecular electron transfer function. Moreover, we demonstrated the utility of this platform to activate multiple molecular probes for protein labeling.

An FDA-approved drug structurally and phenotypically corrects the K210del mutation in genetic cardiomyopathy models

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) due to genetic disorders results in decreased myocardial contractility, leading to high morbidity and mortality rates. There are several therapeutic challenges in treating DCM, including poor understanding of the underlying mechanism of impaired myocardial contractility and the difficulty of developing targeted therapies to reverse mutation-specific pathologies. In this report, we focused on K210del, a DCM-causing mutation, due to 3-nucleotide deletion of sarcomeric troponin T (TnnT), resulting in loss of Lysine210. We resolved the crystal structure of the troponin complex carrying the K210del mutation. K210del induced an allosteric shift in the troponin complex resulting in distortion of activation Ca 2+ -binding domain of troponin C (TnnC) at S69, resulting in calcium discoordination. Next, we adopted a structure-based drug repurposing approach to identify bisphosphonate risedronate as a potential structural corrector for the mutant troponin complex. Cocrystallization of risedronate with the mutant troponin complex restored the normal configuration of S69 and calcium coordination. Risedronate normalized force generation in K210del patient-induced pluripotent stem cell–derived (iPSC-derived) cardiomyocytes and improved calcium sensitivity in skinned papillary muscles isolated from K210del mice. Systemic administration of risedronate to K210del mice normalized left ventricular ejection fraction. Collectively, these results identify the structural basis for decreased calcium sensitivity in K210del and highlight structural and phenotypic correction as a potential therapeutic strategy in genetic cardiomyopathies.

Real-space observation of the dissociation of a transition metal complex and its concurrent energy redistribution

Mechanistic insights into photodissociation dynamics of transition metal carbonyls, like Fe(CO) 5 , are fundamental for understanding active catalytic intermediates. Although extensively studied, the structural dynamics of these systems remain elusive. Using ultrafast X-ray scattering, we uncover the photochemistry of Fe(CO) 5 in real space and time, observing synchronous oscillations in atomic pair distances, followed by a prompt rotating CO release preferentially in the axial direction. This behavior aligns with simulations, reflecting the interplay between the axial Fe-C distances’ potential energy landscape and non-adiabatic transitions between metal-to-ligand charge-transfer states. Additionally, we characterize a secondary delayed CO release associated with a reduction of Fe-C steady state distances and structural dynamics of the formed Fe(CO) 4 . Our results quantify energy redistribution across vibration, rotation, and translation degrees of freedom, offering a microscopic view of complex structural dynamics, enhancing our grasp on Fe(CO) 5 photodissociation, and advancing our understanding of transition metal catalytic systems.

3D Printing of Highly Porous Polypropylene Separators for Lithium‐Ion Batteries Using Fused Deposition Modeling and Thermally Induced Phase Separation

Appearing as one of the key-components of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), this work specifically focuses on the additive manufacturing (AM) of custom-shape separators, facilitated by the filament material extrusion process, also called fused deposition modeling (FDM). The development and optimization of composite thermoplastic filament feedstocks combining polypropylene and paraffin wax, followed by the 3D printing of the separator membranes is shown. A post-processing step, based on thermal induced phase separation (TIPS), is introduced to promote porosity formation through removal of the paraffin wax sacrificial phase within the 3D printed items. Separators with different polypropylene/paraffin wax ratios are developed and the impact on printability, mechanical strength, porosity, and electrochemical performances, is thoroughly discussed. X-ray micro-computed tomography is employed to assess the geometric fidelity and to detect printing defects in a complex 3D lattice structure. The performance of the 3D printed porous separators is also compared to a commercial separator. This pioneering research establishes a foundation for the creation of porous separators that can adapt to and conform into 3D printed battery architectures with novel form factors, and also creates opportunities for the use of FDM and TIPS for a wide range of applications that employ porous structures beyond the energy storage field.

Structures of a synthetic antibody selected against and bound to the C‐terminal domain of Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin

Abstract Clostridium perfringensenterotoxin (CpE) causes cytotoxic gastrointestinal disease in mammalian epithelium by binding membrane protein receptors called claudins. Claudins direct the formation of cell/cell tight junctions through oligomerization and govern the transport of molecules between individual cells. CpE binds claudins through its C‐terminal domain (cCpE) and induces cytotoxicity through its N‐terminal domain. The non‐toxic cCpE is a useful tool to study claudins, tight junctions, and for translational applications, such as increasing the permeability of restrictive tissues like the blood–brain barrier or selective targeting of claudin overexpressing cancers. Conversely, there are no specialized molecular tools to study CpE or cCpE, or to modulate or inhibit their functions. We previously reported the development of synthetic antigen‐binding fragments (sFabs) that bind cCpE, and low‐resolution structures of them bound to claudin/cCpE complexes. Here, we determine high‐resolution structures of sFab COP‐2 bound to cCpE using X‐ray crystallography and cryogenic electron microscopy. The structures and biophysical findings provide the mechanism of COP‐2 binding to cCpE and the molecular determinants driving their interactions. These insights can advance the design of new antibody‐based tools from our COP‐2 scaffold to study or alter cCpE function and give rise to a “Trojan horse” strategy that exploits cCpE's tight junction barrier disrupting function to selectively deliver conjugated therapeutics through normally impermeable tissues.

Functionalized benzylamines from commercial kraft lignin

Benzylamines are key intermediates in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and polymers, but their conventional production relies on benzyl chloride - a petroleum-derived compound with high toxicity and energy demands. Lignin, accounting for up to 30% of plant biomass, is the largest renewable source of aromatic carbon on Earth. However, its highly complex and recalcitrant structure poses a major barrier to efficient conversion into high-value chemicals. Here, in this study, we developed a catalytic approach to convert commercial kraft lignin into phenolic benzylamines through selective depolymerization and subsequent functionalization. We systematically evaluated the effects of three alcohol solvents, formic acid (FA), and a ruthenium-on‑carbon (Ru/C) catalyst on monophenol yield and selectivity. Up to 6.5 wt% monophenol yield was achieved using methanol (MeOH), FA, and Ru/C at 300 °C for 2 h. Quantum thermodynamic simulations based on the COSMO-RS model confirmed the superior solvation and reactivity of the MeOH + FA system, rationalizing observed product yield. The purified monophenolic products, primarily guaiacol and alkyl guaiacols, were then converted into functionalized benzylamines with >90% yield via a multicomponent Mannich reaction under mild conditions. Techno economic analysis (TEA) and life cycle assessment (LCA) underscore the importance of improving lignin depolymerization yields and expanding biorefinery scale. Solvent-only configurations outperform other options in both cost and emissions, with the methanol-only case performing the best ($\$$105 /kg and 26 kg CO 2e /kg) at a large-scale facility. This study establishes a scalable, bio-based pathway for producing benzylamines from commercial kraft lignin, advancing lignin valorization and offering a sustainable alternative to produce petrochemical-based benzylamines.

Chromium segregation-induced oxide evolution in Ni-10Cr alloys during high-temperature oxidation

The oxidation behavior of a Ni-10(wt%)Cr alloy under high-temperature O 2 conditions is investigated using transmission electron microscopy and first-principles calculations. Results reveal that chromium segregation plays a central role in driving the evolution of complex oxide phase structures during oxidation. At low Cr concentrations, Cr preferentially segregates to NiO grain boundaries or internal pores, substituting for Ni atoms and forming Ni(Cr)O solid solutions. As Cr content increases, enhanced diffusion promotes Cr penetration into the NiO lattice, leading to the formation of multiphase oxide structures. First-principles modeling corroborates these findings: at low Cr concentrations, Cr atoms favor surface and grain-boundary segregation, while higher concentrations lead to Cr aggregation within the NiO bulk. Furthermore, the integrated experimental-theoretical approach provides atomistic insights into Cr-mediated mass transport mechanisms during alloy oxidation and offers valuable guidance for controlling oxide growth kinetics and phase stability in Ni-Cr alloys, with implications for improving oxidation resistance in high-temperature structural applications.

Physics vs structure: A systematic benchmark of learning strategies for multi-zone building thermal dynamics

Recent advances in physics-informed and data-driven machine learning promise improved thermal models for advanced building control, yet there is limited quantitative evidence on when added physics structure and architectural complexity are beneficial. Here, this work presents a systematic benchmark of five representative system identification methods for modeling multi-zone building thermal dynamics: linear state-space models, multi-layer perceptrons, neural state-space models, neural ordinary differential equations, and physically-consistent neural networks. The methods are evaluated across multiple data regimes and zone coupling strategies. Using a high-fidelity multi-zone commercial building emulator, we examine short-term and long-term prediction accuracy, computational efficiency, and ease of development. Our results reveal critical trade-offs between prediction performance, model complexity, and physical consistency. We demonstrate that decoupled, nonlinear black-box models consistently outperform coupled physics-constrained architectures in both predictive accuracy and out-of-distribution robustness in majority of the test cases for the building type considered in the study. Our findings quantify the cost of complexity in building thermal modeling and provide concrete, actionable, scenario-based guidelines for selecting model classes for control-oriented applications.
