Article Abstract

The successful integration of 2D nanomaterials into functional devices hinges on developing fabrication methods that afford hierarchical control across length scales of the entire assembly. We demonstrate structural control over a class of crystalline 2D nanosheets assembled from collagen triple helices. By lengthening the triple helix unit through sequential additions of Pro-Hyp-Gly triads, we achieved sub-angstrom tuning over the 2D lattice. These subtle changes influence the overall nanosheet size, which can be adjusted across the mesoscale size regime. The internal structure was observed by cryo-TEM with direct electron detection, which provides real-space high-resolution images, in which individual triple helices comprising the lattice can be clearly discerned. These results establish a general strategy for tuning the structural hierarchy of 2D nanomaterials that employ rigid, cylindrical structural units.

Plasmene nanosheets assembled from "plasmonic molecules".

Entropy-driven drying-mediated self-assembly of plasmonic nanocrystals (termed "plasmonic atoms") has emerged as a general strategy for fabricating plasmene nanosheets from a wide range of monodisperse nanocrystals. However, extending this approach to binary systems remains challenging due to the complex nanoscale interactions between dissimilar nanocrystal shapes. Here, we introduce a combined enthalpy- and entropy-driven strategy to achieve an orderly mixed two-dimensional (2D) binary nanoassemblies from complementary reacting polymer-ligated nanocrystals.

Achieving high capacitance while maintaining rapid charge transport and structural stability remains a major challenge in the design of battery-type supercapacitor electrodes. Herein, a molecularly engineered strategy is presented for constructing hierarchical hybrid electrodes by integrating petal-like NiCu-LDH nanosheets onto 3D HBC-x (x = H, F, OMe)-functionalized CNT paper via a one-step hydrothermal process. The incorporation of HBC effectively mitigates CNT agglomeration and constructs an interconnected conductive framework that enhances charge transport, shortens ion diffusion paths, and reduces internal resistance.

Carbonized wood has great potential as a self-supported electrode for energy storage/conversion applications. However, developing efficient and economical bifunctional electrodes by customizing the surface structure remains a challenge. This study proposes a novel multifunctional electrode design strategy, using N/P co-doped carbonized wood (NPCW) as carriers and in situ grows copper nanoparticles (Cu NPs) as nucleation centers to induce vertical growth of CuCo-layered double hydroxid (LDH) nanosheets along the substrate.

Integration of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and urea oxidation reaction (UOR) is a prospective strategy for energy-efficient hydrogen generation. However, developing highly effective dual functional catalysts for both HER and UOR is still challenging. Herein, two-dimensional rhodium‑nickel (RhNi) metallene with a wrinkled nanosheet structure is prepared by a feasible two-step hydrothermal approach, which provides numerous catalytically active centers and accelerates the charge transfer during the reaction.

Bimetallic sulfide is an outstanding pseudocapacitive material with high theoretical specific capacitance and good electronic conductivity. Herein, nickel-cobalt bimetallic sulfide (CoNiS/NiS) nanoframes composed of thin sheets are synthesized from Ni-Co Prussian blue analogues (NiCo-PBA) by an ion exchange method. The influence of sodium sulfide solution concentration on the morphology and supercapacitor (SC) performances of sulfides is systematically investigated.
