However, uniform deposition of dielectric materials such as aluminum oxide (Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) on 2D materials remains challenging because of the chemically inert nature of these surfaces. In this study, the adsorption behaviors of aluminum ALD precursors on MoS<sub>2</sub> substrates were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The results show that the physisorption of the popular trimethylaluminum (TMA) precursor shows low thermodynamic stability, whereas larger molecules such as aluminum triisopropoxide (ATIP) and triisobutylaluminum (TIBA) display greater stability for physisorption, suggesting better nucleation in ALD. While physisorption of these precursors is more stable on the basal plane than on the edge sites of MoS<sub>2</sub>, edge sites may be preferred for dissociative chemisorption.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10483,"journal":{"name":"Colloid and Interface Science Communications","volume":"65 ","pages":"Article 100823"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143429394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By employing synthetic biology, protein heterologous expression approach allowed protein function to be borrowed from nature to study their new traits. We introduced clMagR/clCry4 into the natural bacteria constructing the recombinant bacteria that perform biomineralization process. Our current work efforts were focused on investigating iron biomineralization in clMagR/clCry4 using electron microscopy. This is only one study, thus far, that describes clMagR/clCry4 deem as a likely candidate as iron biomineralization protein.

The development of nanotechnology in combination with BODIPY provided researchers with nanomedicines passively targeting solid tumors via enhanced penetration and retention effect, which greatly improved the efficacy of cancer photo-theranostics. In this review, we summarize our contributions for the development of BODIPY nanomedicine for cancer imaging and phototherapy.
