Abstract
In this study, the distribution of oxygen-containing functional groups on graphene with vacancies and topological defects was systematically investigated using advanced computational methods and the structure models for multi-defect graphene oxides (GOs) were proposed. All potential adsorption sites were considered through an automated structure generation program to identify energetically favorable structures. Unlike the pristine graphene surface where oxygen-containing functional groups always aggregate with each other, we observed a tendency for them to preferentially adsorb near defects. Furthermore, they may also be distributed on the same side or both sides of the defective graphene. These multi-defect GOs can exhibit either metallic or semiconducting properties. Notably, upon adsorbing the same oxygen-containing functional groups onto the surface of defective graphene, their electronic characteristics become homogeneous. The coexistence of vacancy/topological defects and oxygen-containing functional groups within the graphene lattice introduces intriguing mechanical anisotropic properties to graphene, including the uncommon negative Poisson's ratio. Additionally, these materials exhibit anisotropic optical behavior, displaying heightened absorption within the infrared and visible regions compared to pristine graphene. Finally, it is found that Li atoms are adsorbed stably on the surfaces of multi-defect GOs via the formation of LinO/LimOH clusters. The research findings presented in this paper, encompassing the development of structural models for multi-defect GOs, could provide crucial insights into the properties and potential applications of graphene oxides.

Abstract
Dynamic materials, being capable of reversible structural adaptation in response to the variation of external surroundings, have experienced significant advancements in the past several decades. In particular, dynamic covalent materials (DCMs), where the dynamic covalent bonds (DCBs) can reversibly break and reform under defined conditions, present superior dynamic characteristics, such as self-adaptivity, self-healing and shape memory. However, the dynamic characteristics of DCBs are mainly limited within the length scale of covalent bonds, due to the local position exchange or the inter-distance variation between the chemical compositions involved in the reversible covalent reactions. In this minireview, a discussion regarding the realization of long-range migration of chemical compositions along the interfaces of graphene oxide (GO)-based materials via the spatially connected and consecutive occurrence of DCB-based reversible covalent reactions is presented, and the interfaces are termed "large-area dynamic covalent interfaces (LDCIs)". The effective strategies, including water adsorption, interfacial curvature and metal-substrate support, as well as the potential applications of LDCIs in water dissociation and humidity sensing are summarized. Additionally, we also give an outlook on potential strategies to realize LDCIs on other 2D carbon-based materials, including the interfacial morphology and periodic element doping. This minireview provides insights into the realization of LDCIs on a wider range of 2D materials, and offers a theoretical perspective for advancing materials with long-range dynamic characteristics and improved performance, including controlled drug delivery/release and high-efficiency (bio)sensing.

Abstract
The dynamic oxygen migration at the interface of carbon allotropes dominated by the periodic hexagonal rings, including graphene and carbon nanotubes, has opened up a new avenue to realize dynamic covalent materials. However, for the carbon materials with hybrid carbon rings, such as biphenylene, whether the dynamic oxygen migration at its interface can still be found remains unknown. Using both density functional theory calculations and machine-learning-based molecular dynamics (MLMD) simulations, we found that the oxygen migration departing away from the four-membered carbon (C4) ring is hindered, and the oxygen atom prefers to spontaneously migrate toward/around the C4 ring. This locally spontaneous dynamic oxygen migration on the biphenylene is attributed to a high barrier of about 1.5 eV for the former process and a relatively low barrier of about 0.3 eV for the latter one, originating from the enhanced activity of the C-O bond near/around the C4 ring due to the hybrid carbon ring structure. Moreover, the locally spontaneous dynamic oxygen migration is further confirmed by MLMD simulations. This work sheds light on the potential of biphenylene as a catalyst for spatially controlled energy conversion and provides the guidance for realizing the dynamic covalent interface at other carbon-based or two-dimensional materials.

Abstract
Proton conductors, particularly hydrated solid membranes, have various applications in sensors, fuel cells, and cellular biological systems. Unraveling the intrinsic proton transfer mechanism is critical for establishing the foundation of proton conduction. Two scenarios on electrical conduction, the Grotthuss and the vehicle mechanisms, have been reported by experiments and simulations. But separating and quantifying the contributions of these two components from experiments is difficult. Here, we present the conductive behavior of a two-dimensional layered proton conductor, graphene oxide membrane (GOM), and find that proton hopping is dominant at low water content, while ion diffusion prevails with increasing water content. This change in the conduction mechanism is attributable to the layers of water molecules in GOM nanosheets. The overall conductivity is greatly improved by forming one layer of water molecules. It reaches the maximum with two layers of water molecules, resulting from creating a complete hydrogen-bond network within GOM. When more than two layers of water molecules enter the GOM nanosheets, inducing the breakage of the ordered lamellar structure, protons spread in both in-plane and out-of-plane directions inside the GOM. Our results validate the existence of two conduction mechanisms and show their distinct contributions to the overall conductivity. Furthermore, these findings provide an optimization strategy for the design of realizing the fast proton transfer in materials with water participation.

Abstract
The dynamic covalent properties of graphene oxide (GO) are of fundamental interest to a broad range of scientific areas and technological applications. It remains a challenge to access feasible dynamic reactions for reversibly breaking/reforming the covalent bonds of oxygen functional groups on GO, although these reactions can be induced by photonic or mechanical routes, or mediated by adsorbed water. Here, using density functional theory calculations, we demonstrate the remarkably enhanced dynamic oxygen migration along the basal plane of GO supported by copper substrate (GO@copper), with C-O bond breaking reactions and proton transfer between neighboring epoxy and hydroxyl groups. Compared to reactions on GO, the energy barriers of oxygen migrations on GO@copper are sharply reduced to be less than or comparable to thermal fluctuations, and meanwhile the crystallographic match between GO and copper substrate induces new oxygen migration paths on GO@copper. This work sheds light on understanding of the metal substrate-enhanced dynamic properties of GO, and evidences the strategy to tune the activity of two-dimensional-interfacial oxygen groups for various potential applications.

Abstract
The adsorption of graphene-oxide (GO) nanoparticles at the interface between water and vapor was analyzed using all-atom molecular simulations for single and multiple particles. For a single GO particle, our results indicate that the adsorption energy does not scale linearly with the surface coverage of oxygen groups, unlike typically assumed for Janus colloids. Our results also show that the surface activity of the particle depends on the number of surface oxygen groups as well as on their distribution: for a given number of oxygen groups, a GO particle with a patched surface was found to be more surface active than a particle with evenly distributed groups. Then, to understand what sets the thickness of GO layers at interfaces, the adsorption energy of a test GO particle was measured in the presence of multiple GO particles already adsorbed at the interface. Our results indicate that in the case of high degree of oxidation, particle-particle interactions at the water-vapor interface hinder the adsorption of the test particle. In the case of a low degree of oxidation, however, clustering and stacking of GO particles dominate the adsorption behavior, and particle-particle interactions favor the adsorption of the test particle. These results highlight the complexity of multiple particle adsorption and the limitations of single-particle adsorption models when applied to GO at a relatively high surface concentration.

Abstract
The controllable integration of low-dimensional nanomaterials on solid surfaces is pivotal for the fabrication of next-generation miniaturized electronic and optoelectronic devices. For instance, organization of two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials on polymeric surfaces paves the way for the development of flexible electronics for applications in wearable devices. Nevertheless, the understanding of the molecular interactions between these nanomaterials and the polymeric surfaces remains limited, which impedes the rational design of 2D nanomaterial-based functional coatings. In the current work, we report that graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets, in their dispersion phase, can be adsorbed on multiple polymeric surfaces in a spontaneous manner. Both experimental findings and simulational results indicate that the main driving force is hydrogen bonding interactions, although other molecular interactions such as polarity and dispersion ones contribute to the adsorption as well. The relatively high hydrogen bonding interactions cause not only increased GO surface coverage but also enhanced GO adsorption kinetics on polymeric surfaces. The adsorbed GO layers are robust, which can be explained by the large aspect ratios of GO nanosheets and the presence of multiple spots for molecular interactions. As a proof of concept, GO-covered polymethyl methacrylate effectively decreases surface static charges when compared with its pristine counterpart. The integration of the GO constituents turns many inert polymeric substrates into multifunctional hybrids, and the functional groups on GO can be used further to bridge with additional functional materials for the development of high-performance electronic devices.

Abstract
We present atomistic molecular dynamics simulation study of the self-assembly behavior of toll-like agonist lipopeptides (Pam nCSK4) in aqueous solutions. The variable number of hexadecyl lipid chains ( n = 1, 2, 3) per molecule has been experimentally suggested to have remarkable influence on their self-assembled nanostructures. Starting from preassembled spherical or bilayer configurations, the aggregates of lipopeptides, PamCSK4 and Pam2CSK4, which contain peptide sequences CSK4 linked to either mono- or dilipid chains (Pam), evolve into spherical-like micelles within 30 ns, whereas the self-assembled structure of trilipidated lipopeptides, Pam3CSK4, relaxes much slower and reaches an equilibrium state of flattened wormlike micelle with a bilayer packing structure. The geometric shapes and sizes, namely the gyration radii of spherical micelles and thickness of the flattened wormlike micelle, are found to be in good agreement with experimental measurements, which effectively validates the simulation models and employed force fields. Detailed analyses of molecular packing reveal that these self-assembled nanostructures all consist of a hydrophobic core constructed of lipid chains, a transitional layer, and a hydrophilic interfacial layer composed of peptide sequences. The average area per peptide head at the interfaces is found to be nearly constant for all micellar structures studied. The packing parameter of the lipopeptide molecules thus increases with the increase of the number of linked lipid chains, giving rise to the distinct micellar shape transition from spherical-like to flattened wormlike geometry with bilayer stacking, which is qualitatively different from the shape transitions of surfactant micelles induced by variation of concentration or salt type. To facilitate the close-packing of the lipid chains in the hydrophobic core, the lipopeptide molecules typically take the bent conformation with average tilt angles between the peptide sequences and the lipid chains ranging from 110° to 140°. This consequently affects the orientation angles of the lipid chains with respect to the radial or normal direction of the spherical-like or flattened wormlike micelles. In addition, the secondary structures of the peptides may also be altered by the number of lipid chains to which they are linked and the resultant micellar structures. Our simulation results on the microscopic structural features of the lipopeptide nanostructures may provide potential insights into their bioactivities and contribute to the design of bioactive medicines or drug carriers. The force fields built for these lipopeptides and the geometric packing discussions could also be adopted for simulating and understanding the self-assembly behavior of other bioactive amiphiphiles with similar chemical compositions.

Abstract
Zeolites with molecular dimension pores are widely used in petrochemical and fine-chemical industries. While traditional solvothermal syntheses suffer from environmental, safety, and efficiency issues, the newly developed solvent-free synthesis is limited by zeolite crystal aggregation. Herein, we report well-dispersed and faceted silicalite ZSM-5 zeolite crystals obtained using a solvent-free synthesis facilitated by graphene oxide (GO). The selective interactions between the GO sheets and different facets, which are confirmed by molecular dynamics simulations, result in oriented growth of the ZSM-5 crystals along the c-axis. More importantly, the incorporation of GO sheets into the ZSM-5 crystals leads to the formation of mesopores. Consequently, the faceted ZSM-5 crystals exhibit hierarchical pore structures. This synthetic method is superior to conventional approaches because of the features of the ZSM-5 zeolite.
