Life is a non-equilibrium state of matter maintained at the expense energy. Nature uses predominantly chemical energy stored in thermodynamically activated, but kinetically stable, molecules. These high-energy molecules are exploited for synthesis other biomolecules, activation biological machinery such as pumps and motors, maintenance structural order. Knowledge how transferred to biochemical processes essential development artificial systems with life-like processes. Here, we discuss can be used control organization organic Four different strategies have been identified according distinguishable physical-organic basis. For each class, one example from biology chemistry discussed detail illustrate practical implementation concept distinct opportunities they offer. Specific attention paid discussion chemically fueled self-assembly. We meaning self-assembly, its kinetic origin, develop synthetic systems.

The development of fiber materials has accompanied the evolution human civilization for centuries. Recent advances in science and chemistry offered fibers new applications with various functions, including energy harvesting, storing, displaying, health monitoring treating, computing. unique one-dimensional shape devices endows them advantages to work as human-interfaced electronics due small size, lightweight, flexibility, feasibility integration into large-scale textile systems. In this review, we first present a discussion basics design principles devices, followed by comprehensive analysis on recently developed devices. Finally, provide current challenges facing field give an outlook future research directions. With novel continuing be discovered after two decades research, envision that could have important impact our life near future.

All chemists are familiar with the idea that, at equilibrium steady state, relative concentrations of species present in a system predicted by corresponding constants, which related to free energy differences between components. There is also no net flux species, matter how complicated reaction network. Achieving and harnessing non-equilibrium states, coupling network second spontaneous chemical process, has been subject work several disciplines, including operation molecular motors, assembly supramolecular materials, strategies enantioselective catalysis. We juxtapose these linked fields highlight their common features challenges as well some misconceptions that may be serving stymie progress.

The creation of matter with varying degrees complexities and desired functions is one the ultimate targets self-assembly. ability to regulate complex interactions between individual components essential in achieving this target. In direction, initial success controlling pathways final thermodynamic states a self-assembly process promising. Despite progress made field, there has been growing interest pushing limits processes. main inception that intended self-assembled state, complexities, may not be "at equilibrium (or at global minimum)", rendering free energy minimization unsuitable form product. Thus, we believe thorough understanding design principles as well predict outcome collection next generation matter. present review highlights potent role finely tuned interparticle nanomaterials achieve preferred structures properties. We bringing prediction nanoparticle processes will have similar effect retrosynthesis had on logic chemical synthesis. Along guiding principles, gives summary different types products created from assemblies functional properties emerging them. Finally, highlight reasonable expectations field challenges lying ahead evolvable

Liquid-liquid phase separation yields spherical droplets that eventually coarsen to one large, stable droplet governed by the principle of minimal free energy. In chemically fueled separation, formation phase-separating molecules is coupled a fuel-driven, non-equilibrium reaction cycle. It thus dissipative structures sustained continuous fuel conversion. Such are ubiquitous in biology but poorly understood as they thermodynamics. Here, we bridge gap between passive, close-to-equilibrium, and active, with separation. We observe spherical, active can undergo morphological transition into liquid, shell. demonstrate mechanism related gradients short-lived material. characterize how far out equilibrium shell state chemical power necessary sustain it. Our work suggests alternative avenues for assembling complex morphologies, which might already be exploited form membraneless organelles cells.
