Semiconducting nanocrystals, recognized by the 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, are versatile materials created solely through chemical synthesis, now integral to functional nanotechnologies. Recent research integrates AI technologies into nanocrystal development using robotic tools to enhance data size and accelerate innovation. Addressing challenges like generating white light from a single material, recent studies focus on two-dimensional structures that spontaneously intercalate organic and inorganic components. While prior investigations mainly used random selection, our experimental approach is based on molecular descriptors of organic cations to study their role in emission characteristics. To this aim, we collected experimental data in real time and uploaded it to a digital platform for data interaction, analysis, and preservation. We first carefully selected primary and secondary amines and established a robust synthetic protocol that is performed at relatively low temperatures and through simple steps. To date, we have prepared more than 50 different layered structures and established seven digital protocols, enabling direct linkage between structural and optical features. Initial correlations indicate that using short organic cations with heteroatoms promotes the synthesis of broadband-emitting layered structures, and changes in the heteroatom position might lead to tunable emission color from blue to white. Such real-time data integration and analysis, which includes sorting, interactive exploration, and data graphical representation, offer new pathways for developing efficient white-emitting structures from a single material, with a broad perspective for other functionalities.

The development of medical devices that comply with the soft mechanics of biological systems at different length and complexity levels is highly desirable. With the emergence of conducting polymers exciting directions opened up in bioelectronics research, bridging the gap between traditional electronics and biology. With the ultimate goal of fully integrated devices, organic bioelectronic technologies have been heavily explored the past decade resulting in novel materials/device configurations. Multiplexing capability, ability to adopt to complex performance requirements in biological fluids, sensitivity, stability, literal flexibility and compatibility with large-area processes are only some of the merits of this technology for biomedical applications. A recent example of a bio-integrated electronic device, the BiOET, is based on polymeric semiconductor technology and is fabricated using nano/micro-fabrication methods in conjunction with synthetic biology approaches to incorporate hierarchically organized biological models of the cell membrane. Despite their significance, cell membranes are still an underexplored target for studying the mechanisms of diseases or drug therapies. Cell-free commercially available technologies for cell membrane studies have been limited to synthetic membranes that lack the inherent complexity found in the membrane of the cell. In this talk I will describe a method to create native cell membranes, using vesicles derived from live cells, on top of conducting polymer- based microfabricated electrodes and transistors. The activity of transmembrane proteins in response to different stimuli can be electrically monitored, offering a direct means to characterize drug toxicity or potency at the critical first contact point: membrane interaction.
