Abstract

While selective, rapid proton transport in proton exchange membranes is crucial for fuel cell applications, there is a structure–function gap between high-performing, disordered systems and those that are well-defined, yet poorly conductive. Now, a well-defined, self-assembled material links molecular design to desirable conductivities.

超分子质子高速公路的构造转变。

虽然质子交换膜中选择性、快速的质子传输对燃料电池的应用至关重要，但在高性能、无序的系统和那些定义良好但导电性差的系统之间存在结构功能差距。现在，一种定义良好的自组装材料将分子设计与理想的电导率联系起来。

期刊介绍： Nature Chemistry is a monthly journal that publishes groundbreaking and significant research in all areas of chemistry. It covers traditional subjects such as analytical, inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry, as well as a wide range of other topics including catalysis, computational and theoretical chemistry, and environmental chemistry. The journal also features interdisciplinary research at the interface of chemistry with biology, materials science, nanotechnology, and physics. Manuscripts detailing such multidisciplinary work are encouraged, as long as the central theme pertains to chemistry. Aside from primary research, Nature Chemistry publishes review articles, news and views, research highlights from other journals, commentaries, book reviews, correspondence, and analysis of the broader chemical landscape. It also addresses crucial issues related to education, funding, policy, intellectual property, and the societal impact of chemistry. Nature Chemistry is dedicated to ensuring the highest standards of original research through a fair and rigorous review process. It offers authors maximum visibility for their papers, access to a broad readership, exceptional copy editing and production standards, rapid publication, and independence from academic societies and other vested interests. Overall, Nature Chemistry aims to be the authoritative voice of the global chemical community.
