AbstractVertical van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures of 2D crystals with defined interlayer twist are of interest for band-structure engineering via twist moiré superlattice potentials. To date, twist-heterostructures have been realized by micromechanical stacking. Direct synthesis is hindered by the tendency toward equilibrium stacking without interlayer twist. Here, we demonstrate that growing a 2D crystal with fixed azimuthal alignment to the substrate followed by transformation of this intermediate enables a potentially scalable synthesis of twisted heterostructures. Microscopy during growth of ultrathin orthorhombic SnS on trigonal SnS2 shows that vdW epitaxy yields azimuthal order even for non-isotypic 2D crystals. Excess sulfur drives a spontaneous transformation of the few-layer SnS to SnS2, whose orientation – rotated 30° against the underlying SnS2 crystal – is defined by the SnS intermediate rather than the substrate. Preferential nucleation of additional SnS on such twisted domains repeats the process, promising the realization of complex twisted stacks by bottom-up synthesis.

In both title compounds, C10H13BO3S, (I), and C13H17BO3, (II), the molecules adopt nearly planar conformations. The crystal packing of (I) consists of a supramolecular two-dimensional network with a herringbone-like topology formed by self assembly of centrosymmetric pairs of molecules linkedviadipole–dipole interactions. The crystal structure of (II) consists of a supramolecular two-dimensional network built up from centrosymmetric pairs of moleculesviaπ–π interactions. These pairs of molecules are self-organized in an offset fashion related by a symmetry centre, generating supramolecular ribbons running along the [101] direction. Neighbouring ribbons are stackedviacomplementary van der Waals and hydrophobic methyl–methyl interactions.

AbstractAutism spectrum disorder (ASD) subjects can present temporary behaviors of acute agitation and aggressiveness, named problem behaviors. They have been shown to be consistent with the self-organized criticality (SOC), a model wherein occasionally occurring “catastrophic events” are necessary in order to maintain a self-organized “critical equilibrium.” The SOC can represent the psychopathology network structures and additionally suggests that they can be considered as self-organized systems.
