Han Tao, Sunghwan Jo, Guang Chu, Xiaoyu Qi, Irene Estévez, Angel Lizana, Wenyang Xu, Shengwei Deng, Agustin Mihi, Eero Kontturi Advanced Materials, 2026, 38, e199642 Abstract: Achieving scalable fabrication with precise control of chiroptical properties in chiral plasmonic materials remains challenging. We present a new family of engineered chiroptical composites comprising linearly assembled gold nanoparticle arrays integrated with cholesteric self-assembled cellulose nanocr

Mari Heikkinen, Malar Auxilia Francis, Kristoffer Meinander, Girish C. Tewari, Mikko Nisula, Maarit Karppinen J. Mater. Chem. A, 2026, 14, 17229 Abstract: Here we report a three-precursor atomic/molecular layer deposition (ALD/MLD) process for the fabrication of copper-based coordination polymer thin films for thermoelectric applications. This process mimics the wet chemical synthesis of poly[metal-ethenetetrathiolate] (poly[M-ETT]) polymers based on a trans-metalation reac

The future of materials cannot rely on abundance. Even renewable resources like wood must be used sparingly and wisely — transformed into higher-value products that deliver more with less. Join us for an afternoon of innovation and inspiration as we explore the cutting-edge bioeconomy advancements and discuss the urgent challenges of declining forest carbon sinks and biodiversity loss while striving for sustainable economic growth. The event will be organized as a hybrid even
