Single-Molecule Tracking Measurements Reveal the Detailed Mechanisms of Molecular Diffusion in Solvent Mixtures under Nanoconfinement

Understanding mass transport mechanisms in nanopores is important for developing advanced materials for chemical separations, chemical sensing, and energy storage. This paper reports a novel imaging platform that is employed for the first time to investigate the detailed diffusion dynamics of single rhodamine B (RhB) dye molecules confined within solution-filled cylindrical anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) nanopores. The imaging platform relies on illumination of horizontally-oriented AAO nanopores in a highly inclined and laminated optical (HILO) light sheet microscopy geometry. The method was used to investigate the translational and orientational dynamics of single rhodamine B (RhB) molecules within horizontally-oriented 5- and 10-nm diameter AAO nanopores filled with water–ethanol mixtures. The established platform enabled the observation of one-dimensional motion along the pore axis involving occasional short- or long-term immobilization at the single-molecule level. Analysis of cumulative squared-displacement distributions revealed fast (5 – 30 µm²/s), intermediate (1 – 5 µm²/s), and slow (< 1 µm²/s) diffusion components. From the effects of mixture composition and pore size on the contributions of these three components, we inferred that the fast, intermediate, and slow components could be assigned to desorption-mediated hopping, crawling, and wiggling motions, respectively. The platform based on the horizontally-oriented AAO nanopores also permitted single-molecule emission polarization measurements that revealed the negligible steric confinement of individual diffusing RhB molecules within the AAO nanopores. The imaging platform based on AAO membranes and HILO microscopy provided a unique means to investigate how solvation-mediated surface interactions and nanoconfinement govern molecular transport in nanoporous environments.

Super-Resolved Single-Molecule Tracking Studies of Rhodamine B Accumulation on Fresh and Aged Polyethylene Terephthalate

It is well-known that toxic organic micropollutants (OMs) accumulate on the surfaces of microplastics. However, much remains to be learned about the exact molecular level mechanisms of OM accumulation and how these evolve as the plastics age. In this work, super-resolved single-molecule tracking (SMT) is used for the first time to investigate the accumulation of Rhodamine B (RhB) dye on fresh and artificially aged polyethylene terephthalate (PET) surfaces. PET thin films serve as models for microplastics, while RhB serves as a proxy for the OMs they accumulate. Artificial aging of the films is accomplished by exposing them in a UV-ozone chamber. Water contact angle, spectroscopic ellipsometry, and carbonyl index measurements reveal a gradual decrease in film hydrophobicity, thickness, and carbonyl content with age. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) data reveal an increase in surface roughness and confirm that the films remain largely intact and continuous across the aging times explored. In SMT experiments, wide-field fluorescence videos acquired from the water/PET interface under 7.5 pM RhB reveal both mobile and immobile dye molecules. Measurements of the frame-to-frame displacements of the dye show that diffusion occurs by a desorption-mediated mechanism and that the diffusion rate varies with PET film age. The surface density of mobile dye molecules decreases with increasing PET age, while the population of immobile molecules becomes relatively larger, suggesting an age-dependent transformation of the mechanism(s) by which the dye is accumulated. SMT data reveal that both mobile and immobile molecules repeatedly adsorb over the same surface sites, consistent with the emergence of nanoscale PET surface heterogeneity also revealed by AFM. Estimates of the adsorption coefficients are obtained using a nearest-neighbor analysis, giving values from 9.9 × 10 5 to 2.1 × 10 6 M –1 for immobile molecules and from 1.8 × 10 5 to 2.5 × 10 5 M –1 for mobile molecules on fresh and 5 min aged PET, respectively. Here, anomalous age-dependent variations in the velocity of molecular motion on the PET surface and in the population of immobile molecules are shown to correlate with changes in the strength of RhB adsorption.

Nanodomain Formation and Temperature-Dependent Diffusion in Deep Eutectic Solvents Revealed by Single-Molecule Tracking

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are typically regarded as homogeneous liquids; however, recent work shows that many exhibit nanoscale structural heterogeneity. Most studies attribute these nanoscale features to short-range chemical interactions. It is still unclear whether a long-range physical mechanism also plays a role. Here, in this study, we examined the nanoscale structure in two hydrophobic DESs, 1:3 tetrabutylammonium bromide: l-menthol (DES-butyl) and 1:3 tetraoctylammonium bromide: l-menthol (DES-octyl). The notation 1:3 represents the molar ratio of the hydrogen bond acceptors to hydrogen bond donors used in the synthesis of the DESs. Single-molecule tracking (SMT) coupled with maximum entropy method (MEM) analysis was used to measure the number of diffusion populations of a dilute concentration of an added fluorescent probe. The presence of more than one population of diffusion coefficients indicates the existence of multiple local environments for the fluorescent probe (i.e., nanoscale structures in the DES). DES-butyl showed a relatively narrow diffusion coefficient distribution centered at 0.55 μm 2 /s, whereas DES-octyl displayed two distinct diffusing populations at 20 °C, with diffusion coefficients of 0.12 μm 2 /s and 0.53 μm 2 /s for the slow and fast populations, respectively. As DES-octyl was heated, the slow-diffusing population steadily diminished and disappeared above ∼30 °C, indicating that the nanodomains present at lower temperatures collapse as the liquid becomes more thermodynamically mixed. This temperature-dependent homogenization is consistent with a physical mechanism of nanostructure formation, for example, liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS), wherein the structure is not driven solely by specific chemical interactions. The SMT-MEM results suggest that a long-range physical mechanism is the most plausible origin of the measured nanoscale structure in DES-octyl.

Single-molecule infrared spectroscopy with scanning tunneling microscopy

Probing vibrations at the single-molecule level is essential for achieving bond-specific chemical control in realistic heterogeneous environments. Here, we introduce a new measurement scheme that integrates frequency-tunable infrared excitation with scanning tunneling microscopy to characterize vibration-mediated nuclear motions of single molecules. We first validated the technique by monitoring the infrared-induced rotation of the ethynyl radical and then applied it to mapping pyrrolidine’s conformational dynamics. The resulting broadband spectra captured fundamental vibrational modes together with rich overtone and combination bands inaccessible by conventional methods, which we confirmed with isotopic substitutions. Density functional theory calculations showed that delocalized modes coupled with pyrrolidine ring puckering drive the structural transition, revealing altered selection rules compared with traditional infrared spectroscopy. Here, this new experimental platform enables molecular vibrations and transformations to be probed with atomic precision.

Single-Molecule Electron Transport in Peptoids

Peptoids are structural analogs of peptides in which side chains are appended to the backbone nitrogen rather than the α-carbon. The sequence-defined modularity of peptoids enables precise control over structure−function relationships, enabling applications in energy storage and biomedical materials. Despite recent progress, the role of sequence and conformation on electron transport in peptoid molecules is not fully understood. Here, we synthesize a library of peptoid oligomers and characterize their molecular electronic properties using the scanning tunneling microscope-break junction (STM-BJ) technique. Our results show well-defined electron transport behavior for peptoid sequences containing aromatic side groups lacking hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) and without chemical substitutions at the N−C α position. This behavior fundamentally differs from electron transport in peptides, where H-bond interactions give rise to higher conductance states. All-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are used to understand the conformational heterogeneity of peptoids, and molecular conformations obtained from MD simulations are used in quantum mechanical calculations based on the nonequilibrium Green’s function−density functional theory (NEGF-DFT) formalism. In all cases, computational results are in reasonable qualitative agreement with experiments. Our work demonstrates that the conductance behavior of peptoids depends on monomer identity, including side-chain aromaticity and substitution at the N−C α position. Overall, this work provides new insights into the structure−function relationships governing electron transport in peptoid-based materials and establishes design rules for peptoid-based molecular junctions.

Refined Sensitivity Estimates for Single-Molecule Magnet Dark Matter Detectors

We revisit the sensitivity of Single Molecule Magnet (SMM) crystals as detectors for low-mass dark matter. In previous work, we established the concept of the ``magnetic bubble chamber'', where energy deposited by dark matter triggers a magnetic avalanche in a metastable crystal. The original sensitivity estimates relied on a conservative criterion requiring the spin relaxation time to be strictly shorter than the thermal diffusion time. Here, we demonstrate that this criterion effectively ignores the stochastic nature of spin relaxation. We derive a refined analytic estimate which accounts for the fraction of spins that relax even when diffusion is fast. We show that the Zeeman energy released by this fraction contributes to local heating, significantly lowering the energy threshold for avalanche formation. We present simulation results confirming this effect and report on experimental verification of the assumed low-temperature thermal properties of two representative SMM crystals, Mn$_{12}$-acetate and Mn$_{32}$. Together, these efforts extend this pathfinder program toward the realization of SMM-based detectors with controlled material properties and enhanced dark matter sensitivity.

Heterogeneous Multilayer Nanopores via Chemically Tuned Dielectric Breakdown for Single‐Molecule Sensing

Solid-state nanopores are powerful platforms for single-molecule sensing, yet their performance is often constrained by fabrication complexity, noise, and limited control over surface properties. Here we report a direct method to fabricate heterogeneous multilayer nanopores using chemically tuned controlled dielectric breakdown (CT-CDB). We integrate hBN, MoS 2 , or graphene atop a silicon nitride membrane to form five distinct bilayer and tri-layer architectures, with bare SiN x nanopore as a control. CT-CDB achieves pore formation reproducibly through material-stacks with high efficiency, good pore size control, and strong yield, validated by various characterizations. Transferrin protein translocation experiments, supported by simulations, reveal that multilayer configurations modulate protein conformations, ionic current blockade and dwell time distributions, reflecting combined effects of membrane type, interfacial chemistry, and local electric field gradients. A supervised machine learning framework is implemented to assist identifying multilayer structure effects embedded in signal signatures, with over 96% accuracy. This work presents a modular and scalable framework for functional nanopore engineering with complex structural integration, thereby expanding the potential of 2D materials in single-molecule sensing applications.

Stochastic equilibrium Raman spectroscopy (STERS)

In this manuscript, we propose a new method for cavity- and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) with improved temporal resolution in the measurement of stochastic Raman spectral fluctuations. Our approach combines Fourier spectroscopy and photon correlation to decouple the integration time from the temporal resolution. Using statistical optics Monte Carlo simulations, we establish the relationship between time resolution and Raman signal strength, revealing that typical Raman spectral fluctuations, commensurate with molecular conformational dynamics, can theoretically be resolved on micro- to millisecond timescales. The method can further extract average single-molecule dynamics from small sub-ensembles, thereby potentially mitigating challenges in achieving strictly single-molecule isolation on SERS substrates.

A Unified Analytical Method Greenness Score ( uAMGS ) Quantifies How Microscopic Imaging Is Greener Than Conventional Liquid Chromatography

Green chemistry is a set of principles for assessing, developing, and implementing methods that are safer, more efficient, and less detrimental to the environment. The analytical method greenness score (AMGS) is one of many metrics that attempt to evaluate traditional liquid chromatography (LC) based on the energy consumption of the instrument and the safety, health risks, and environmental impact of the solvents employed. Unfortunately, in practice, the AMGS is primarily focused on traditional separation methods in the pharmaceutical industry and is not amenable to cutting-edge separation science, including miniaturization. To broaden this scope, the unified Analytical Method Greenness Score (uAMGS) is presented here, which clarifies and expands on the underlying mathematics and incorporates both dimensional and uncertainty analysis, enabling its application to a broader range of analytical techniques. The uAMGS is used to compare the greenness of two distinct methods: single-molecule microscopy (SMM) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), which were used to collect equivalent data. uAMGS determines that SMM is significantly greener than HPLC due primarily to decreased solvent consumption. Overall, the uAMGS should allow chemists ranging from undergraduates to industrial PhDs to assess the greenness of a wide range of separations.

Activation dynamics of a water-soluble human mu-opioid receptor

The mu-opioid receptor (MOR), a class A G protein-coupled receptor mediates opioid analgesia and remains a central target for pain therapeutics. While crystal structures of MOR exist, they provide limited insight into the receptor’s dynamic conformational landscape underlying function. Here, we engineered a thermostable water-soluble MOR variant (wsMOR) that retains native-like ligand-binding and activation dynamics. This variant enables high-yield production and detailed solution-phase structural studies that are challenging with membrane-embedded MOR, providing a valuable tool for studying receptor activation and aqueous-phase drug screening. Using a combined computational and experimental approach, we performed long-timescale all-atom molecular dynamics simulations together with neutron scattering and single-molecule FRET, revealing a structurally stable receptor with a diverse ensemble of conformations at different temporal resolutions. In the ligand-free state, wsMOR displayed high conformational flexibility, which decreased upon agonist binding, particularly in transmembrane helix 6, a hallmark of G protein-coupled receptor activation. Positive allosteric modulation and G protein binding further stabilized active-like states. These findings highlight wsMOR’s conformational plasticity across picosecond to millisecond timescales and provide a foundation for structure-guided development of next-generation opioid ligands with improved efficacy and safety.

LHCSR1 Functions as a Dimmer Switch for Light Harvesting

In oxygenic photosynthesis, high light leads to a set of photoprotective processes, known as nonphotochemical quenching, that are required for fitness. In moss and algae, the pigment−protein complex, light-harvesting stress-related (LHCSR), is crucial for photoprotection. Acidification of the thylakoid lumen under high light triggers the activation of LHCSR and the conversion of the xanthophyll violaxanthin into zeaxanthin, which is found within LHCSR. These interrelated molecular components combine to turn on a safety valve that dissipates excess energy as heat. Previous studies of detergent-solubilized LHCSR1 found that pH and zeaxanthin regulate distinct quenching sites via the protein conformation. However, protein function in the native membrane environment can be significantly different. In this work, we applied single-molecule fluorescence spectroscopy to LHCSR1 in membrane nanodiscs. The membrane environment enhanced total quenching, regardless of pH or zeaxanthin-binding. pH-dependent quenching was still observed whereas zeaxanthin-dependent quenching was suppressed. Conformational changes also increased in the membrane, establishing that the local environment can change the nature of the equilibrium between light harvesting and photoprotection.

Imaging from Macro to Nanoscale: Multimodal Advances in Chemical and Biomedical Imaging

Imaging increasingly serves as a multiscale framework for linking molecular mechanisms to cellular behavior, tissue architecture, and organ phenotypes in biology and unraveling fundamental processes in chemistry, physics and materials science. This Perspective highlights recent advances in chemical and biomedical imaging across macro-, micro-, and nanoscales, using representative examples published in Chemical and Biomedical Imaging (CBMI). At the macroscale, we discuss chemically selective MRI, including endogenous and exogenous CEST strategies, together with photoacoustic imaging as a hybrid modality with functional and chemical contrast. At the microscale, we consider fluorescence, label-free optical and vibrational imaging, and selected X-ray approaches that expand sensitivity, specificity, and temporal resolution in biological and materials systems. At the nanoscale, we highlight super-resolution fluorescence microscopy, single-molecule methods, tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, and correlative imaging strategies that resolve local heterogeneity and molecular organization. Across scales, a common theme emerges that advances in probes, contrast mechanisms, instrumentation, and sample handling are enabling chemically informed imaging that connects molecular specificity with biological context.

Magnetic Blocking in Fluoflavine Radical-Bridged Dilanthanide Complexes

Magnetic exchange coupling is difficult to foster in polynuclear lanthanide (Ln) complexes and poorly understood. While coupling Ln ions through closed-shell ligands is inherently weak due to the contracted 4f orbitals, placing open-shell ligands instead has proven to promote orders of magnitude stronger coupling, giving rise to single-molecule magnets (SMMs) innate to real magnetic memory effect in the case of the anisotropic Ln ions. Notably, the impact of radical bridges with differing oxidation states on magnetic blocking remains unexplored due to lack of Ln SMMs with radicals in two distinct charge states. Herein, the first dilanthanide complexes (Ln = Gd, Dy) containing fluoflavine (flv) bridges, [(Cp* 2 Ln) 2 (μ-flv z )]X, (where X = [Al(OC{CF 3 } 3 ) 4 ] − (z = 1−•), 1-Ln; X = 0 (z = 2−), 2-Ln; X =[K(crypt-222)] + (z = 3−•), 3-Ln) are reported. 1-Ln and 3-Ln, comprising the flv 1−• and flv 3−• radical bridges, were investigated via single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), ultraviolet−visible (UV−vis) spectroscopy, Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID) magnetometry, high-field electron paramagnetic resonance (HF-EPR) spectroscopy and broken-symmetry density functional theory (BS-DFT) calculations. 1-Dy and 3-Dy constitute the first SMMs innate to radicals in two differing oxidation states. 1-Dy exhibits a spin-reversal barrier U eff of 28.36 cm −1 and open magnetic hysteresis loops below 3 K. By contrast, 3-Dy displays a much higher U eff of 143(2) cm −1 and open hysteresis loops until 9.5 K, representing a record for dilanthanide SMMs containing an organic radical bridge. The boost in SMM properties in 3-Dy is attributed to spin-phonon coupling and improved frontier orbital structure. This study paves the way for advanced design strategies of polynuclear Ln SMMs.

PARP1-HPF1 structure and dynamics on nicked DNA suggest a mechanism for acute and localized ADP-ribosylation

PARP1 detection of DNA strand breaks allosterically leads to PARP1 synthesis of poly(ADP-ribose) modifications that signal DNA damage. HPF1 engages activated PARP1 to control modification site selection. Understanding of the mechanism of DNA break detection and catalytic activation is incomplete, due largely to limited structural information for full-length PARP1. Here, single-particle cryo-EM provides views of the full complement of PARP1 domains engaging a DNA single-strand break in the presence of HPF1 and a fragment of binding partner Timeless. Cryo-EM, single-molecule DNA dynamics, and small-angle X-ray scattering analysis indicate that PARP1 remains dynamic even when the multi-domain structure is organized on a DNA break, with the minimal catalytic region displaying high mobility relative to domains engaging damage. We propose that the organization of PARP1 domains on a DNA break releases a tethered, constitutively active catalytic region to modify molecules in a radius surrounding the DNA break site.

Super-resolution imaging reveals resistance to mass transfer in functionalized stationary phases

Chemical separations are costly in terms of energy, time, and money. Separation methods are optimized with inefficient trial-and-error approaches that lack insight into the molecular dynamics that lead to the success or failure of a separation and, hence, ways to improve the process. We perform super-resolution imaging of fluorescent analytes in five different commercial liquid chromatography materials. Unexpectedly, we observe that chemical functionalization can block more than 50% of the material’s porous interior, rendering it inaccessible to small-molecule analytes. Only in situ imaging unveils the inaccessibility when compared to the industry-accepted ex situ characterization methods. Selectively removing some of the functionalization with solvent restores pore access without substantially altering the single-molecule kinetics that underlie the separation and agree with bulk chromatography measurements. Our molecular results determine that commercial “fully porous” stationary phases are over-functionalized and provide an alternative avenue to characterize and direct separation material design from the bottom-up.

Unraveling the Dynamics of Nucleosome Arrays

The organization of genomic DNA into chromatin is a fundamental determinant of genome stability, regulation, and cellular function. Nucleosomes, the basic repeating units of chromatin, assemble into higher-order structures whose organization and heterogeneity remain difficult to characterize using conventional ensemble-averaged techniques. A key need in the field is the development of experimental approaches capable of directly visualizing nucleosome assemblies and their structural variability at the single-molecule level. This LDRD Lab-Wide project focused on establishing and evaluating atomic force microscopy (AFM)–based approaches for the characterization of nucleosome assemblies. The work emphasized experimental workflows for preparing, imaging, and assessing multi-nucleosome systems, rather than isolated single nucleosomes. Through method development and exploratory measurements, the project demonstrated the feasibility of applying scanning probe microscopy to investigate chromatin-relevant assemblies and provided preliminary insight into the strengths and limitations of this approach for future quantitative studies. Results and lessons learned from this effort were disseminated to the broader scientific community through multiple national conference presentations, helping to position LLNL for continued work in chromatin and genome organization research.

Carbon-Based Quantum Information Science with Symmetry Protected Topological States (Final Report, DOE-BES award DE-SC0023105)

This research program established the scientific foundation for the rational, bottom-up design, synthesis, isolation, and investigation of symmetry-protected topological (SPT) electron spin qubits embedded in graphene nanoribbons (GNRs). The work focused on integrating atomically precise low-dimensional carbon nanostructures with emerging quantum logic architectures, providing a pathway toward scalable quantum materials for next-generation computing and sensing technologies. A central component of the program was the elucidation of fundamental relationships between real-space molecular architecture, local spin density distributions, electronic band dispersion, and energy level alignment in atomically precise GNR systems. These correlations define key operational parameters of SPT qubits and were systematically investigated to establish quantitative benchmarks against established molecular and solid-state spin qubit platforms. Attention was given to properties critical for quantum device performance, e.g. decoherence times, spectral sharpness of energy transitions, and tunable exchange interactions between spin states. The research demonstrated that these parameters can be engineered with atomic precision through scalable bottom-up synthetic strategies. Theory-guided design played a central role in identifying candidate structures hosting topologically protected spin states. Experimental validation was performed using both ensemble measurements and single-molecule characterization. In addition to advances in quantum materials synthesis, the program developed and applied spin-sensitive scanning probe microscopy techniques capable of directly probing quantum states and dynamic processes with atomic-scale spatial resolution. These capabilities enabled direct observation and characterization of quantum structures at the single-atom level. While the research activities were primarily hypothesis-driven fundamental investigations, the program adopted a comprehensive materials-by-design framework aimed at translating scientific discoveries into technological concepts compatible with scalable and intelligent manufacturing approaches.

Development of high throughput light-sheet fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy for 3D functional imaging of metabolic pathways in plant and microorganisms (Final Technical Report)

This research program will enable new biochemical contrast in the nanosecond lifetime domain through use of the recently demonstrated electro-optic fluorescence lifetime imaging technique (EO-FLIM) for wide-field lifetime imaging. The Stanford/Stanford Linear Accelerator Center multidisciplinary collaboration -- physics, applied physics, and structural biology -- will develop a light-sheet fluorescence lifetime imaging microscope for functional studies of microbial and plant metabolic pathways and dynamic interactions between plants and microorganisms in the rhizosphere. The proposed approach overcomes the imaging time bottleneck associated with existing fluorescence lifetime imaging methods. Initial demonstrations have shown a factor of 100,000 improvement in photon throughput compared to existing methods. High photon efficiency allowed the first wide-field fluorescence lifetime imaging of single molecules. Recent work has improved the technique’s repetition rate to enable compatibility with mode-locked lasers and demonstrated the combination of wide-field fluorescence lifetime imaging with super-resolution localization microscopy, observations of single molecule dynamics, and observation of donor lifetime quenching in single-molecule imaging. These results were achieved on standard camera sensors and would not have been possible with other wide-field approaches. The throughput and photon economy of the EO-FLIM method enables new BER-relevant imaging opportunities. In particular, scanned single- and two-photon light-sheet excitation will be used to achieve volumetric imaging with time-domain contrast.
