However, traditional storage architectures require substrate replacement and the use of environmentally unfriendly chemicals for multistep operations, hindering seamless and sustainable storage. Here, we report liquid metal (LM)-DNA, an integrated and sustainable DNA storage architecture that leverages a responsive liquid metal as a functionality-adaptive storage medium. LM-DNA allows cascaded storage operations within a single medium, including enzymatic DNA synthesis, hermetic encapsulation through thermal activation, and electrokinetic decapsulation driven by the electrocapillary effect. The green enzymatic DNA data writing and physical data encapsulation/decapsulation avoid toxic chemicals, ensuring a more sustainable route for DNA storage. Furthermore, the fluidity of liquid metal enables biomimetic operations such as file splitting, merging, and reshaping, offering unprecedented flexibility in information management. LM-DNA provides a promising foundation for advancing sustainable and biomimetic information storage technologies.","PeriodicalId":388,"journal":{"name":"Matter","volume":"123 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143933557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These materials consist of alternating layers of organic cations and inorganic octahedra. The organic cations often undergo order-to-disorder phase transitions near room temperature, leading to subtle changes in the inorganic layer that impact their optoelectronic properties. To elucidate how structural changes influence optoelectronic properties, we interrogate a series of 2D lead bromide and iodide perovskites with different-length alkylammonium cations. We find that the octahedra become either more or less distorted at the phase transition temperature, depending on the identity of the cation and halide, and that octahedral motion occurs either continuously with temperature or abruptly across a phase transition. Our study directly links structural dynamics to reversible changes in the optical properties of 2D perovskites and realizes the potential for dynamically switchable optoelectronics with hybrid materials.","PeriodicalId":388,"journal":{"name":"Matter","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143933555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Polymer crystallization drives assemblies with both ordered and disordered regions. Crystallization-driven assembly of BCPs enables unique hierarchical nanostructures with enhanced colloidal stability and directionality, applicable from optoelectronics to biomedicine. However, mechanisms governing morphological transitions remain poorly understood due to complex microphase separation and competitive crystallization. Using liquid-phase transmission electron microscopy, we visualize the spontaneous assembly of semicrystalline amphiphilic BCPs. We observe structural transformations from unimers to spherical, cylindrical, toroidal micelles, and vesicles by varying constituent block ratios. Image segmentation overcomes low contrast of aqueous assemblies, enabling motion tracking. Nanostructures exhibit structural evolution driven by long-range hydrophobic interactions from formed elemental micelles undergoing anomalous diffusion. Notably, toroid formation follows a distinct pathway compared with conventional BCPs due to semicrystalline BCPs’ preference for low curvature at the core-corona interface. Insights into assembly dynamics via real-time imaging provide strategies for controlling complex hierarchical structures.","PeriodicalId":388,"journal":{"name":"Matter","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143933487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A comprehensive analysis of light-wave propagation, absorption, emission, and scattering is constructed on the basis of a symmetry-derived exciton fine structure model, which accurately describes the direction and polarization dependence of the observed excitonic circular dichroism and <em>CPLE</em>, including contributions from both photoluminescence and resonant Raman scattering. Our analysis indicates that molecular chirality drives preferential film alignment with respect to the out-of-plane lattice vector direction, producing the observed anisotropies.
