Summary: This study found that in neutral aqueous systems, the addition of a certain amount of CMC to PPI caused serious phase separation; stable PPI solutions can be obtained by adding different amounts of CMC at pH 4.5 to 5.5 due to enhanced electrostatic repulsion and steric hindrance between the newly formed PPI-CMC biopolymers, as well as increased viscosity at pH 4.5 contributed to the higher stability of PPI in acidic aqueous systems.

Summary: Graphene/polymer actuators were developed as transparent, flexible, and robust electrostatic speaker units using bilayer graphene and various polymer substrates. A resonant frequency shift was induced by a polymer substrate with micropatterns to enhance bass. The total sound pressure level (SPL) of the graphene/polymer actuator was measured and confirmed to be one-third of the octave band frequency. The study investigated the vibroacoustic characteristic changes in polymers with the same size and thickness by varying Young's modulus and density. The possibility of boosting bass was confirmed by inducing a resonant frequency shift and increasing the total SPL through micropatterns on the polymer substrate.

Summary: This study presents a high-yield method for introducing a 2-pyridyl substituent in the C2 position of the three-membered ring of 2-bromo-2H-azirine-2-carboxylic acid derivatives through direct cross-coupling with 2-(trialkylstannyl)pyridines. The reaction is versatile, working well with different substituted 2-stannylpyridines and enabling the synthesis of 2-(thiazol-2-yl)-2H-azirines. DFT calculations suggest that the reaction proceeds through a sequence of S(N)2'-substitution, 1,4-stannyl shift, and [2,3]-sigmatropic shift of the pyridine ring.

Summary: A protocol was developed for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydrofurans by reductive denitrogenation/ring contraction of cyclic nitronates. Cheap Raney nickel was used as both catalyst and stoichiometric agent, eliminating the need for high-pressure equipment. The products were obtained in high purity and often didn't require column chromatography. Studies on substrate scope, functional group tolerance, and mechanism were conducted. This approach provides a straightforward two-step access to densely substituted 2,3-dihydrofurans from nitrostyrenes and alkenes.

Summary: The discussion revolves around elucidating multiple non-covalent interactions that control the cohesive molecular clustering of well-designed precursor molecules and their chemical reactions using bond-resolved scanning probe microscopy and quantum chemistry calculations. The presence of two flexible bromo-triphenyl moieties leads to the assembly of distinct non-planar dimer and trimer clusters through manifold non-covalent interactions. The dynamic nature of weak interactions allows for transforming dimers into energetically more favourable trimers as molecular density increases, offering unprecedented opportunities for controlling the assembly of complex molecular architectures.

Summary: High-efficiency quantum information processing is achieved through logic qubit gates that require the fewest quantum resources and simplest operations. By using a reflection geometry of a single photon interacting with a three-level Λ-type atom-cavity system, the authors propose refined protocols for conducting controlled-not (CNOT), Fredkin, and Toffoli gates on hybrid systems. In these gates, the first control qubit is encoded on a flying photon, while the remaining qubits are encoded on atoms inside the optical cavity. These quantum gates can also be extended to the optimal synthesis of multi-qubit CNOT, Fredkin, and Toffoli gates without auxiliary photons or atoms using O(n) optical elements. Furthermore, the simplest single-qubit operations are applied only to the photon, making these logic gates experimentally feasible with current technology.

Summary: The ability to measure and control electric fields in enzymes and other complex reactive environments using the vibrational Stark effect has sparked interest in understanding the role of solute electronic structure in modifying the local solvent organization and electric field. This study demonstrates that amide-containing molecules experience larger frequency shifts in polar solvents compared to non-amide carbonyls due to the stronger p-pi conjugation and larger C=O bond dipole moments, resulting in larger solvent electric fields. The structural modifications of the solute can be used to tune both the solvent organization and electrostatic environment.

Summary: Linear and nonlinear electronic spectra are important tools to study electronic energy absorption and transfer. A pure state Ehrenfest approach is introduced to accurately calculate these spectra for systems with many excited states and complex chemical environments. By representing the initial conditions as sums of pure states and unfolding multi-time correlation functions, significant improvements in accuracy can be achieved, especially when the initial condition involves coherence between excited states. This method is able to quantitatively capture exact linear, 2D electronic spectroscopy, and pump-probe spectra for various bath regimes.

Summary: This paper investigates the dynamics of many-body fermionic systems and derives conditions under which fermionic operators can be replaced by bosonic operators while still capturing the correct dynamics of n-body operators. The analysis provides a guide on how to calculate single- and multi-time correlation functions essential in describing transport and spectroscopy using these simple maps. The applicability of Cartesian maps in capturing correct fermionic dynamics in select models of nanoscopic transport is rigorously analyzed and illustrated with exact simulations of the resonant level model.

Summary: This study evaluates the application of the cavity molecular dynamics method for calculating vibrational polariton spectra using liquid water as an example. The authors dispute the suggestion that nuclear quantum effects broaden polariton bands, instead finding anharmonic red shifts in polariton frequencies. They demonstrate that the simulated cavity spectra can be accurately reproduced using a harmonic model based on the cavity-free spectrum and cavity geometry. It is concluded that the transfer matrix method of applied optics, already widely used by experimentalists, provides comparable insight into the effect of vibrational strong coupling on absorption spectra as cavity molecular dynamics.

Summary: Electron transfer at electrode interfaces to molecules in solution or at the electrode surface is essential for technological processes, and it necessitates a comprehensive and accurate understanding of the fermionic states of the electrode and their coupling to the molecule being oxidized or reduced in electrochemical processes. A physically transparent quasiclassical scheme is proposed to treat these electron transfer processes in the presence of molecular vibrations, effectively mapping the fermionic variables. This approach accurately captures the electron transfer dynamics even in weak coupling regimes, providing a scalable strategy for treating electron transfer from electrode interfaces in condensed-phase molecular systems.

Summary: The transport of excess protons and hydroxide ions in water is crucial for many important chemical and biological processes. Traditional simulation methods are prohibitively expensive for accurately modeling the associated transport mechanisms. In this study, machine-learned potentials (MLPs) are developed to simulate the transport of excess protons and hydroxide ions at a fraction of the cost of traditional methods, while still reproducing the trends observed in ab initio simulations. These simulations provide insights into the role of hypercoordination in the transport mechanism of hydroxide ions and support the asymmetry in diffusion between excess protons and hydroxide ions.

Summary: Hydrogen bonding interactions between chromophores in chemical and biological environments play a crucial role in their electronic absorption and relaxation processes, as evident in their linear and multidimensional optical spectra. However, simulating the large number of atoms in the condensed phase has traditionally limited the use of high-level excited-state electronic structure methods. Utilizing transfer learning, this study demonstrates the construction of machine-learned models to accurately predict the high-level excitation energies of a chromophore in solution using only 400 high-level calculations. Furthermore, by effectively treating the electronic excitations of the green fluorescent protein chromophore in water with EOM-CCSD embedded in a DFT description of the solvent, the optical spectrum is correctly captured, attributing the improvement to the accurate treatment of the coupling of the electronic transition to electric fields, resulting in a stronger response upon hydrogen bonding between the chromophore and water.

Summary: The complexes of He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe with B3N3H6 were investigated using MP2, CCSD(T), and SAPT ab initio methods. The complexes can be described as mono-, di-, and tri-coordinated to the N atoms, with stability following the order N-mono < N-di < N-tri. The interactions are dominated by dispersion and the binding energies are within the range of 1 or 2 kcal mol(-1). The results were compared with a recent DFT study on larger BN sheets complexes [Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 24 (2022) 2554-2566.].

Summary: It has been found that the introduction of buffer layers improves the electrical performance of solid oxide fuel cells (SSOFCs). In this study, varying ratios of Gd-doped CeO2 were used as buffer layers in YSZ-based SSOFCs. The results demonstrate that the performance of SSOFCs is enhanced when a buffer layer is added, with the highest performance achieved using Ce0.8Gd0.2O2-delta (GDC20) as the buffer layer. This suggests that the use of GDC series buffer layers is an attractive strategy to optimize performance loss due to electrolyte-electrode interactions.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of aspect ratio and quantum confinement on the single-photon and two-photon absorption cross-section of perovskite CsPbI3 nanorods. Experimental data shows that CsPbI3 nanorods have an extremely high two-photon absorption cross-section, significantly surpassing organic chromophores and other CsPbBr3 nanocrystals. Moreover, adjusting the aspect ratio can significantly enhance the absorption ability. Additionally, the study also reveals a moderate quantum confinement effect on the single-photon and two-photon absorption cross-section of the nanorods.
