Researchers Synthesize DNA-Templated Gold Nanocluster for Efficient Biofuel Cell Design

With fossil-fuel sources dwindling, better biofuel cell design is a strong candidate in the energy field. In research published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, Los Alamos researchers and external collaborators synthesized and characterized a new DNA-templated gold nanocluster (AuNC) that could resolve a critical methodological barrier for efficient biofuel cell design.

Study on Porous Polymers Demonstrates How Chemistry Plays Key Role in Materials Science

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a class of porous polymers that enable the atomically precise incorporation of organic units into periodic structures, creating highly ordered ð-columnar arrays and one-dimensional open channels. One significant structural feature is that they can be predesigned at both primary and high-order structure levels. COFs have emerged as a platform for materials design and functional explorations. However, their low stability has been impeded any practical implementations.
