text: Quantum control of the many-body wavefunction is a central challenge in quantum
materials research, as it could yield a precise control knob to manipulate emergent
phenomena. Floquet engineering, the coherent dressing of quantum states with periodic
non-resonant optical fields, has become an important strategy for quantum control.
Most applications to solid-state systems have targeted weakly interacting or single-ion
states, leaving the manipulation of many-body wavefunctions largely unexplored.
Here we use Floquet engineering to achieve quantum control of a strongly correlated
Hubbard exciton in the one-dimensional Mott insulator Sr2CuO3. A non-resonant
mid-infrared optical field coherently dresses the exciton wavefunction, driving
its rotation between bright and dark states. We use resonant third-harmonic generation
to quantify ultrafast π/2 rotations on the Bloch sphere spanned by these exciton
states. Our work advances the quest towards programmable control of correlated
states and exciton-based quantum sensing.

text: Molecular catch bonds are ubiquitous in biology and essential for processes
like leucocyte extravasion1 and cellular mechanosensing2. Unlike normal (slip)
bonds, catch bonds strengthen under tension. The current paradigm is that this
feature provides ‘strength on demand3’, thus enabling cells to increase rigidity
under stress1,4,5,6. However, catch bonds are often weaker than slip bonds because
they have cryptic binding sites that are usually buried7,8. Here we show that
catch bonds render reconstituted cytoskeletal actin networks stronger than slip
bonds, even though the individual bonds are weaker. Simulations show that slip
bonds remain trapped in stress-free areas, whereas weak binding allows catch bonds
to mitigate crack initiation by moving to high-tension areas. This ‘dissociation
on demand’ explains how cells combine mechanical strength with the adaptability
required for shape change, and is relevant to diseases where catch bonding is
compromised7,9, including focal segmental glomerulosclerosis10 caused by the α-actinin-4
mutant studied here. We surmise that catch bonds are the key to create life-like
materials.

text: Spin qubits are considered to be among the most promising candidates for building
a quantum processor. Group IV hole spin qubits have moved into the focus of interest
due to the ease of operation and compatibility with Si technology. In addition,
Ge offers the option for monolithic superconductor-semiconductor integration.
Here we demonstrate a hole spin qubit operating at fields below 10 mT, the critical
field of Al, by exploiting the large out-of-plane hole g-factors in planar Ge
and by encoding the qubit into the singlet-triplet states of a double quantum
dot. We observe electrically controlled X and Z-rotations with tunable frequencies
exceeding 100 MHz and dephasing times of 1μs which we extend beyond 15μs with
echo techniques. These results show that Ge hole singlet triplet qubits outperform
their electronic Si and GaAs based counterparts in speed and coherence, respectively.
In addition, they are on par with Ge single spin qubits, but can be operated at
much lower fields underlining their potential for on chip integration with superconducting
technologies.

text: Phonon polaritons—light coupled to lattice vibrations—in polar van der Waals
crystals are promising candidates for controlling the flow of energy on the nanoscale
due to their strong field confinement, anisotropic propagation and ultra-long
lifetime in the picosecond range1,2,3,4,5. However, the lack of tunability of
their narrow and material-specific spectral range—the Reststrahlen band—severely
limits their technological implementation. Here, we demonstrate that intercalation
of Na atoms in the van der Waals semiconductor α-V2O5 enables a broad spectral
shift of Reststrahlen bands, and that the phonon polaritons excited show ultra-low
losses (lifetime of 4 ± 1 ps), similar to phonon polaritons in a non-intercalated
crystal (lifetime of 6 ± 1 ps). We expect our intercalation method to be applicable
to other van der Waals crystals, opening the door for the use of phonon polaritons
in broad spectral bands in the mid-infrared domain.

text: Transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are renowned for their rich and varied
bulk properties, while their single-layer variants have become one of the most
prominent examples of two-dimensional materials beyond graphene. Their disparate
ground states largely depend on transition metal d-electron-derived electronic
states, on which the vast majority of attention has been concentrated to date.
Here, we focus on the chalcogen-derived states. From density-functional theory
calculations together with spin- and angle-resolved photoemission, we find that
these generically host a co-existence of type-I and type-II three-dimensional
bulk Dirac fermions as well as ladders of topological surface states and surface
resonances. We demonstrate how these naturally arise within a single p-orbital
manifold as a general consequence of a trigonal crystal field, and as such can
be expected across a large number of compounds. Already, we demonstrate their
existence in six separate TMDs, opening routes to tune, and ultimately exploit,
their topological physics.

text: Controlling matter to simultaneously support coupled properties is of fundamental
and technological importance1 (for example, in multiferroics2,3,4,5 or high-temperature
superconductors6,7,8,9). However, determining the microscopic mechanisms responsible
for the simultaneous presence of different orders is difficult, making it hard
to predict material phenomenology10,11 or modify properties12,13,14,15,16. Here,
using a quantum gas to engineer an adjustable interaction at the microscopic level,
we demonstrate scenarios of competition, coexistence and mutual enhancement of
two orders. For the enhancement scenario, the presence of one order lowers the
critical point of the other. Our system is realized by a Bose–Einstein condensate
that can undergo self-organization phase transitions in two optical resonators17,
resulting in two distinct crystalline density orders. We characterize the coupling
between these orders by measuring the composite order parameter and the elementary
excitations and explain our results with a mean-field free-energy model derived
from a microscopic Hamiltonian. Our system is ideally suited to explore quantum
tricritical points18 and can be extended to study the interplay of spin and density
orders19 as a function of temperature20.

text: Establishing precise control over the shape and the interactions of the microscopic
building blocks is essential for design of macroscopic soft materials with novel
structural, optical and mechanical properties. Here, we demonstrate robust assembly
of DNA origami filaments into cholesteric liquid crystals, one-dimensional supramolecular
twisted ribbons and two-dimensional colloidal membranes. The exquisite control
afforded by the DNA origami technology establishes a quantitative relationship
between the microscopic filament structure and the macroscopic cholesteric pitch.
Furthermore, it also enables robust assembly of one-dimensional twisted ribbons,
which behave as effective supramolecular polymers whose structure and elastic
properties can be precisely tuned by controlling the geometry of the elemental
building blocks. Our results demonstrate the potential synergy between DNA origami
technology and colloidal science, in which the former allows for rapid and robust
synthesis of complex particles, and the latter can be used to assemble such particles
into bulk materials.

text: Kinetics of electrochemical reactions are several orders of magnitude slower
in solids than in liquids as a result of the much lower ion diffusivity. Yet,
the solid state maximizes the density of redox species, which is at least two
orders of magnitude lower in liquids because of solubility limitations. With regard
to electrochemical energy storage devices, this leads to high-energy batteries
with limited power and high-power supercapacitors with a well-known energy deficiency.
For such devices the ideal system should endow the liquid state with a density
of redox species close to the solid state. Here we report an approach based on
biredox ionic liquids to achieve bulk-like redox density at liquid-like fast kinetics.
The cation and anion of these biredox ionic liquids bear moieties that undergo
very fast reversible redox reactions. As a first demonstration of their potential
for high-capacity/high-rate charge storage, we used them in redox supercapacitors.
These ionic liquids are able to decouple charge storage from an ion-accessible
electrode surface, by storing significant charge in the pores of the electrodes,
to minimize self-discharge and leakage current as a result of retaining the redox
species in the pores, and to raise working voltage due to their wide electrochemical
window.

text: Rechargeable lithium–air (O2) batteries are receiving intense interest because
their high theoretical specific energy exceeds that of lithium-ion batteries.
If the Li–O2 battery is ever to succeed, highly reversible formation/decomposition
of Li2O2 must take place at the cathode on cycling. However, carbon, used ubiquitously
as the basis of the cathode, decomposes during Li2O2 oxidation on charge and actively
promotes electrolyte decomposition on cycling. Replacing carbon with a nanoporous
gold cathode, when in contact with a dimethyl sulphoxide-based electrolyte, does
seem to demonstrate better stability. However, nanoporous gold is not a suitable
cathode; its high mass destroys the key advantage of Li–O2 over Li ion (specific
energy), it is too expensive and too difficult to fabricate. Identifying a suitable
cathode material for the Li–O2 cell is one of the greatest challenges at present.
Here we show that a TiC-based cathode reduces greatly side reactions (arising
from the electrolyte and electrode degradation) compared with carbon and exhibits
better reversible formation/decomposition of Li2O2 even than nanoporous gold (>98%
capacity retention after 100 cycles, compared with 95% for nanoporous gold); it
is also four times lighter, of lower cost and easier to fabricate. The stability
may originate from the presence of TiO2 (along with some TiOC) on the surface
of TiC. In contrast to carbon or nanoporous gold, TiC seems to represent a more
viable, stable, cathode for aprotic Li–O2 cells.

text: Van der Waals (vdW) interaction, and its subtle interplay with chemically
specific interactions and surface roughness at metal/organic interfaces, is critical
to the understanding of structure–function relations in diverse areas, including
catalysis, molecular electronics and self-assembly1,2,3. However, vdW interactions
remain challenging to characterize directly at the fundamental, single-molecule
level both in experiments and in first principles calculations with accurate treatment
of the non-local, London dispersion interactions. In particular, for metal/organic
interfaces, efforts so far have largely focused on model systems consisting of
adsorbed molecules on flat metallic surfaces with minimal specific chemical interaction4,5,6,7,8,9.
Here we show, through measurements of single-molecule mechanics, that pyridine
derivatives10,11 can bind to nanostructured Au electrodes through an additional
binding mechanism beyond the chemically specific N–Au donor–acceptor bond. Using
density functional theory simulations we show that vdW interactions between the
pyridine ring and Au electrodes can play a key role in the junction mechanics.
These measurements thus provide a quantitative characterization of vdW interactions
at metal/organic interfaces at the single-molecule level.

text: 'Li-ion batteries have transformed portable electronics and will play a key
role in the electrification of transport. However, the highest energy storage
possible for Li-ion batteries is insufficient for the long-term needs of society,
for example, extended-range electric vehicles. To go beyond the horizon of Li-ion
batteries is a formidable challenge; there are few options. Here we consider two:
Li–air (O2) and Li–S. The energy that can be stored in Li–air (based on aqueous
or non-aqueous electrolytes) and Li–S cells is compared with Li-ion; the operation
of the cells is discussed, as are the significant hurdles that will have to be
overcome if such batteries are to succeed. Fundamental scientific advances in
understanding the reactions occurring in the cells as well as new materials are
key to overcoming these obstacles. The potential benefits of Li–air and Li–S justify
the continued research effort that will be needed.'

text: Micropatterning of surfaces with several chemicals at different spatial locations
usually requires multiple stamping and registration steps. Here, we describe an
experimental method based on reaction–diffusion phenomena that allows for simultaneous
micropatterning of a substrate with several coloured chemicals. In this method,
called wet stamping (WETS), aqueous solutions of two or more inorganic salts are
delivered onto a film of dry, ionically doped gelatin from an agarose stamp patterned
in bas relief. Once in conformal contact, these salts diffuse into the gelatin,
where they react to give deeply coloured precipitates. Separation of colours in
the plane of the surface is the consequence of the differences in the diffusion
coefficients, the solubility products, and the amounts of different salts delivered
from the stamp, and is faithfully reproduced by a theoretical model based on a
system of reaction–diffusion partial differential equations. The multicolour micropatterns
are useful as non-binary optical elements, and could potentially form the basis
of new applications in microseparations and in controlled delivery.
