Understanding how molecular motors transduce energy is central to all living systems and is a fundamentally important area in biology and physical chemistry. However, the complex problems in unraveling their working mechanism have proved extremely challenging, given their molecular size (nm, with molecular mass up to a million daltons), timescale (fs to ms), and changes in multiple interactions and dynamics during their mechanochemical cycle. For systems that have a solid-state physical nature, i.e. where the machines are mechanical, it is suggested that engineering-based computational approaches afford simplification that make them amenable to physical analysis. In this spirit, Engineering Molecular Dynamics (EMD) simulations were performed on bovine mitochondrial F1 – ATPase, nature's smallest rotary motor. The bottom residues of the γ subunit interacting with the polar loop of the c subunits of FO were rotated counterclockwise as well as clockwise. The simulations verify previous proposals that the γ subunit of ATP synthase behaves in a torsional manner, and hence the top of γ does not move smoothly but rather rotates differentially with respect to the bottom. The torsional strain patterns in the central γ-shaft/rotor on counterclockwise rotation when viewed from F1 are visualized as a function of angle and time. Upon clockwise rotation of the bottom of the γ subunit when viewed from the F1 side, uncoiling of the left-handed coiled coil of γ was observed, indicating that ATP synthesis cannot occur when γ is rotated in the clockwise sense. The results have implications for molecular mechanisms of ATP synthesis. The work also offers a coarse-grained approach for simulation of mechanochemical processes that achieves a reduction in the degrees of freedom by focusing on the dynamical mechanical response and behavior of the biological system. Some potential applications in nanotechnology-based design of intrinsically nonequilibrium protein mechanochemical devices are discussed.
了解分子马达如何传递能量是所有生命系统的核心,也是生物学和物理化学的一个重要领域。然而,考虑到它们的分子大小(纳米,分子质量高达一百万道尔顿)、时间尺度(fs到ms)以及在其机械化学循环过程中多种相互作用和动力学的变化,揭示它们的工作机制的复杂问题已被证明是极具挑战性的。对于具有固态物理性质的系统,即机器是机械的,建议基于工程的计算方法提供简化,使其适合物理分析。本着这种精神,工程分子动力学(EMD)模拟牛线粒体F1 - atp酶,自然界最小的旋转马达。与FO的c亚基极性环相互作用的γ亚基的底部残基分别顺时针和逆时针旋转。模拟验证了先前的建议,即ATP合成酶的γ亚基以扭转方式表现,因此γ的顶部并不平滑移动,而是相对于底部旋转不同。从F1上看,逆时针旋转时,中心γ轴/转子的扭转应变模式是角度和时间的函数。当从F1侧顺时针旋转γ亚基底部时,观察到γ的左旋盘绕线圈展开,表明当γ顺时针旋转时不能发生ATP合成。研究结果对ATP合成的分子机制具有重要意义。这项工作还为机械化学过程的模拟提供了一种粗粒度的方法,通过关注生物系统的动态机械响应和行为来实现自由度的降低。讨论了基于纳米技术设计本质非平衡蛋白机械化学器件的一些潜在应用。

In the OLED field, HLCT luminescent materials have become a research focus due to their high exciton utilization achieved through high-energy-level hot exciton RISC. This study first explored the optoelectronic properties of three D-A-D type HLCT molecules, followed by the design of four novel molecules and their optoelectronic performance analysis via multiscale calculations. The findings reveal that: Nz centers ensure the T1-T2 gap,thiophene bridges enhance fluorescence, extended π-skeletons promote aggregation-induced emission These insights provide innovative design strategies for highly efficient red HLCT materials.

Transparent conducting materials (TCMs) are critical in optoelectronics. The visible light transparency and p-type electrical conductivity for ZnS are studied. Visible light transmittance is 80 % at 100.0 nm thickness. P-type electrical conductivity is 1.60 S/cm with the hole density 5.34 × 1017 cm−3 induced by thermodynamic equilibrium (TE) method. Nonequilibrium schemes enhance p-type electrical conductivity to 121 S/cm at 5.34 × 1019 cm−3. Group IA atoms substituting Zn are shallow p-type defects, LiS2, NaS2, K2S and RbS3 are ideal dopants sources. Fermi level pinning implies only KZn is fabricated with TE scheme, with the minimum formation energy of 2.33 eV.

The development of efficient, cost-effective adsorbents for cadmium remediation is imperative for environmental protection and public health. In this study, CaMg(Fe)-layered double hydroxides (CMF) were successfully synthesized via a co-precipitation method and subsequently utilized for the effective removal of Cd(II) from aqueous solutions. Structural characterization revealed that CMF-4 with optimal iron loading (n Fe3+: n(Ca2+ + Mg2+ + Fe3+) = 0.20) possessed well-ordered lamellar structures with enhanced active site accessibility. The material exhibited excellent pH adaptability (2–6), where interlayer cation release facilitated Cd(II) uptake through ion exchange and surface complexation. CMF-4 achieved a maximum Langmuir adsorption capacity of 214.31 mg/g at 25 °C (pH 4), with XPS analysis confirming Cd(II) immobilization as stable Cd(OH)₂ and CdCO₃ species. Notably, the adsorbent showed multifunctional capabilities, effectively removing PO₄3− (122 mg/g), Pb(II) (923 mg/g), Zn(II) (222 mg/g), and Cu(II) (372 mg/g). Regeneration studies demonstrated excellent reusability, highlighting CMF-LDHs' potential for practical wastewater treatment applications. Overall, CMF-4 is a highly effective Cd(II) adsorbent, and our findings provide fundamental insights into LDH-based heavy metal remediation while offering a sustainable solution for water purification.

Electrochemical analysis indicates that when the current density is 1 A·g−1, the specific capacitance of the La0.85Ca0.15FeO3 electrode reaches 451 F/g. This specific value is 2.7 times greater than the specific capacitance of the undoped LaFeO3 electrode. Furthermore, when the power density reaches 1000 W·kg−1, the energy density of the symmetrical supercapacitor prepared with La0.85Ca0.15FeO3 reaches 23 Wh·kg−1. In addition, it also features excellent cycling stability. After 6000 charge and discharge cycles, it still maintains 95 % of the starting capacitance. This study introduces an effective doping engineering method, aiming to promote the development of electrode materials for energy storage applications.

The selective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde to cinnamyl alcohol persists as a significant challenge, primarily due to the thermodynamic preference for CC bond activation. This study engineered a dual-constraint synergistic catalytic system by encapsulating Co-H₃NTB metal-organic frameworks within 4 A zeolite. Within this architecture, Co2+ serves as a selective CO bond activation site through its Lewis acidic sites. This hierarchical confinement structure optimizes mass transfer pathways and stabilizes the active species, ultimately achieving an impressive 86.7 % conversion rate alongside 93.8 % selectivity for cinnamyl alcohol. This work presents a rationally designed confinement strategy for achieving highly efficient, chemically selective hydrogenation reactions.

Recently, the overuse of tetracycline (TC) has caused persistent adverse effects on both ecological environment and human health. It needs to develop effective methods for removing TC from water. Herein, Ag2S/ZnIn2S4@TiO2@carbon was successfully synthesized and used as catalyst for degradation of TC. The influence of Ag2S and ZnIn2S4 on the photocatalytic activity of TiO2@carbon were investigated. The results show that the Ag2S/ZnIn2S4@TiO2@carbon achieved a photocatalytic degradation efficiency of 98.73 %. Moreover, the photocatalytic activity of Ag2S/ZnIn2S4@TiO2@carbon remained nearly unchanged after four consecutive cycles, with only a 3.2 % decrease in degradation efficiency. Finally, the degradation mechanism of TC over Ag2S/ZnIn2S4@TiO2@carbon was elucidated.

The performance of osmotic energy conversion (OEC) was investigated theoretically using funnel-shaped nanopores, considering that the stem part enables selective ion transport, and the conical part provides mechanical support. Impacts of the pore geometry and surface charge density on the OEC performance are studied under various salinity gradients. The largest electrical power is achieved based on the balance between ionic selectivity and permeability, corresponding to the optimal geometry structure of nanopores. Exterior surface charges on the low-concentration side can effectively enhance the OEC performance. The effective charged width of ∼250 nm provides an important design parameter for porous membranes.
从理论上研究了漏斗状纳米孔的渗透能转换(OEC)性能,考虑到管状部分提供选择性离子传输,锥形部分提供机械支撑。研究了不同盐度梯度下孔隙几何形状和表面电荷密度对OEC性能的影响。最大的电功率是基于离子选择性和渗透性之间的平衡,对应于纳米孔的最佳几何结构。低浓度侧的外表面电荷可以有效地提高OEC性能。有效带电宽度为~ 250 nm提供了一个重要的多孔膜设计参数。

A theoretical study of non-adiabatic processes in the photodissociation of the palladium dichloride anion, PdCl2− 二氯化钯阴离子PdCl2 -光解非绝热过程的理论研究
IF 3.1 3区 化学 Q3 CHEMISTRY, PHYSICAL Pub Date : 2026-03-01 Epub Date: 2026-01-12 DOI: 10.1016/j.cplett.2026.142654

We theoretically investigate photodissociations of the gas-phase palladium dichloride anion, PdCl2. Visible photodissociation mass spectrometry revealed that the main dissociation channel yields chloride anion (PdCl + Cl), but our previous calculations based on a linear-geometry model did not explain the observation. In this study bent geometries are considered and absorption spectra and potential energies are calculated using the MRCI method. It is found that the computational results agree with the observed absorption spectrum and dissociation product. It is worth noting that non-adiabatic transitions between excited-state potential curves are found to play a key role in the photodissociation process.
我们从理论上研究了气相二氯化钯阴离子PdCl2−的光解。可见光解质谱分析显示,主要的解离通道产生氯阴离子(PdCl + Cl−),但我们之前基于线性几何模型的计算并不能解释这一观察结果。在本研究中,考虑了弯曲几何形状,并使用MRCI方法计算了吸收光谱和势能。计算结果与观察到的吸收光谱和解离产物相吻合。值得注意的是,发现激发态电位曲线之间的非绝热跃迁在光解过程中起着关键作用。

Achieving spectroscopic accuracy in first-principles studies of transition metal-containing species: ScF, ScCl, YF, and YCl 在含过渡金属的物质:ScF, ScCl, YF和YCl的第一性原理研究中实现光谱精度

The Feller–Peterson–Dixon composite computational scheme, which has previously proven its effectiveness in describing spectroscopy and thermochemistry of lanthanide-containing diatomics [J. Chem. Theory Comput. 13 (2017) 5240], is applied in a slightly modified form to their lighter analogues – scandium and yttrium monohalides. The scheme is shown to be capable of predicting bond lengths and vibrational frequencies of such molecules with errors of less than 0.0005 Å and 1 cm−1, i.e., with ‘spectroscopic’ accuracy. The calculated dipole moments of ScF, YF and YCl differ from the experimental ones by less than 0.01 D. The dipole moment of ScCl is predicted to be 2.606 D.
