Abstract Static self‐assembly resides in thermodynamically stable global minima of the energy landscape, whereas dynamic occupies local profile and remains ordered state for a limited time via dissipation to surroundings. This makes spatiotemporal control over assembly disassembly mechanism easily controllable case self‐assembly. However, due higher thermal stability static self‐assembly, it is very challenging perform reverse engineering on these types systems. Herein we report growth reaction‐based reversal silver cubes obtained cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) crosslinked nanoparticles (AgNP).

Electrochemical liquid electron microscopy has revolutionized our understanding of nanomaterial dynamics by allowing for direct observation their electrochemical production. This technique, primarily applied to inorganic materials, is now being used explore the self-assembly active molecular materials. Our study examines these across various scales, from nanoscale behavior individual fibers micrometer-scale hierarchical evolution fiber clusters. To isolate influences beam and electrical potential on material behavior, we conducted thorough beam–sample interaction analyses. findings reveal that materials at are shaped proximity electrode current. By integrating observations with reaction–diffusion simulations, uncover local structures formation history play a crucial role in determining assembly rates. suggests emergence nonequilibrium can locally accelerate further structural development, offering insights into under conditions.

Conventional electric field directed colloidal assembly enables fabricating ordered structures but lacks temporal control over state. Chemical reaction networks have been discovered that transiently assemble colloids; however, they slow dynamics (hrs – days) and poor tunability, utilize complex reagents, produce kinetically trapped states. Here we demonstrate transient crystals autonomously form, breakup, reconstitute in response to an electrochemical network driven by a time invariant electrical stimulus. Aqueous mixtures of micron sized colloids para-benzoquinone (BQ) were subjected superimposed oscillatory steady potentials, i.e., multimode induce electrokinetic flows around proton-coupled BQ redox reactions. Transient states coincided with electrochemically generated pH spikes near the cathode. We wide tunability state lifetimes two orders magnitude modifying potential electrode separation. An transport model showed interaction advancing acidic alkaline fronts from anodic oxidation cathodic reduction caused transients. present theoretical experimental evidence indicates mediated competition between opposing scale electrohydrodynamic electroosmotic flows, latter which is dependent. methods for struggle This study demonstrates disassemble, reassemble network, achieving using potentials.

Active matter and driven systems exhibit statistical fluctuations in density particle positions that are an indirect indicator of dissipation across length time scales. Here, we quantitatively relate these to a thermodynamic speed limit constrains the rates heat entropy production nonequilibrium processes. By reparametrizing set by Fisher information, show how infer from directly observable or controllable quantities. This approach can use available experimental data as input avoid need for analytically solvable microscopic models full time-dependent probability distributions.

With growing threats from counterfeiting-based security breaches, multi-level and specific stimuli-responsive anti-counterfeiting devices message encryption methods have attracted immense research interest. Fluorescence-based aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-based materials solves the problems to a considerable extent. However, development of smarter patterns with hierarchical levels alongside dynamic display is still challenging. To screen out this complication, we bring forward pH-switchable fluorescent assembly an AIEgen aliphatic acid. We later temporally direct molecular aid chemical trigger-regulated pH clock, generating transitory multicolor emission, including transient white light generation. The pH-dependent emissions were further implemented in constructing smart multi-input AND gates. Subsequently, integrate time-gated emissive system develop advanced multi-dimensionally secure data strategy. This novel approach enhances measures by introducing additional layer based on temporal characteristics.

Abstract Living cells are complex, nonequilibrium supramolecular systems capable of independently and/or cooperatively integrating multiple bio‐supramolecules to execute intricate physiological functions that cannot be accomplished by individual biomolecules. These biological design strategies offer valuable insights for the development synthetic with spatially controlled hierarchical structures, which, importantly, exhibit cell‐like responses and functions. The next grand challenge in chemistry is control organization types supramolecules a single system, thus these an orthogonal cooperative manner. In this perspective, recent progress constructing multicomponent soft materials through hybridization supramolecules, such as self‐assembled nanofibers/gels coacervates, other functional molecules, including polymer gels enzymes highlighted. Moreover, results show bioinspired stimuli, bidirectional rheological double‐network hydrogels, temporal stimulus pattern‐dependent 3D hydrogel patterning response reaction–diffusion processes presented. Autonomous active structures hold promise diverse applications, robotics directional motion, point‐of‐care disease diagnosis, tissue regeneration.

Supramolecular chemistry currently faces the challenge of controlling nonequilibrium dynamics such as dynamic instability microtubules. In this study, we explored emergence through hybridization peptide-type supramolecular nanofibers with surfactant micelles. Using real-time confocal imaging, discovered that addition micelles to induced simultaneous but asynchronous growth and shrinkage during which total number fibers decreased monotonically. This phenomenon unexpectedly persisted for 6 days was driven not by chemical reactions noncovalent interactions between study demonstrates a strategy inducing autonomous dynamics, will open up possibilities developing soft materials applicable biomedicine robotics.
