Green topologies and landscapes beyond the land. A 30-years research on green hybridization by Manuel Gausa

“…New eco-systemic ‘city-architecture-infrastructure-landscape’ strategies are required, but also new types of spatial repertoires with more complex geometries (more flexible, elastic and organic) linked to the dynamics of a changing environment and its multi-scalar manifestations: new topographies, topologies and topomorphies (but also para-topologies) that are more hybrid because, paradoxically, they are more sensitive to nature; approaches favoured by the current eco-technological capacity to work with new responsive materials in which vegetation and all bio-active organisms would combine into new multi-scalar spatial devices, ‘networked environments’, highlighting the shift from a defensive ecology to a proactive ecology and even an increasingly techno-performative ecology. …”

Engineering 2D spin networks by on-surface encapsulation of azafullerene radicals in nanotemplates by Gregor Kladnik, Luca Schio, Gregor Bavdek, Yuri Tanuma, Marion van Midden Mavrič, Erik Zupanič, Bastien Anézo, Ioanna K. Sideri, Nikos Tagmatarchis, Jannis Volkmann, Hermann A. Wegner, Andrea Goldoni, Christopher P. Ewels, Alberto Morgante, Luca Floreano, Denis Arčon, Dean Cvetko

“…By vacuum deposition of azafullerene (C59N•) monomers on a pre-deposited template layer of [10]cycloparaphenylene ([10]CPP) nanohoops on Au(111) surface we exploit the molecular shape matching between the C59N• and [10]CPP for the azafullerene encapsulation with nanohoops in a guest-host complexation geometry. C59N•⊂[10]CPP supramolecular complexes self-assemble into an extended two-dimensional hexagonal lattice yielding a high density network of stable spin-1/2 radicals. …”
