Quantum Hall effect in black phosphorus two-dimensional electron system   pp593 - 597
Likai Li, Fangyuan Yang, Guo Jun Ye, Zuocheng Zhang, Zengwei Zhu, Wenkai Lou, Xiaoying Zhou, Liang Li, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Kai Chang, Yayu Wang, Xian Hui Chen and Yuanbo Zhang
doi:10.1038/nnano.2016.42
Improvement in sample quality has resulted in the first observation of the quantum Hall effect in a black phosphorus two-dimensional electron system.

Electrical generation and control of the valley carriers in a monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide   pp598 - 602
Yu Ye, Jun Xiao, Hailong Wang, Ziliang Ye, Hanyu Zhu, Mervin Zhao, Yuan Wang, Jianhua Zhao, Xiaobo Yin and Xiang Zhang
doi:10.1038/nnano.2016.49
The use of electric fields to control spin currents, which is one of the goals of modern spintronics, has now been extended to control the valley degree of freedom in a 2D semiconductor.

Chemoelectronic circuits based on metal nanoparticles   pp603 - 608
Yong Yan, Scott C. Warren, Patrick Fuller and Bartosz A. Grzybowski
doi:10.1038/nnano.2016.39
Metal nanoparticles functionalized with charged organic ligands can be used to create electronic devices in which the metal nanoparticles sense, process and report chemical signals.

Single-nanowire photoelectrochemistry   pp609 - 612
Yude Su, Chong Liu, Sarah Brittman, Jinyao Tang, Anthony Fu, Nikolay Kornienko, Qiao Kong and Peidong Yang
doi:10.1038/nnano.2016.30
Single-nanowire photoelectrodes show that the photovoltage output of ensemble arrays can be limited by poorly performing individual wires and that the high surface area of nanowires lowers the overpotential of photoelectrochemical reactions.

Aggregated single-walled carbon nanotubes attenuate the behavioural and neurochemical effects of methamphetamine in mice   pp613 - 620
Xue Xue, Jing-Yu Yang, Yi He, Li-Rong Wang, Ping Liu, Li-Sha Yu, Guo-Hua Bi, Ming-Ming Zhu, Yue-Yang Liu, Rong-Wu Xiang, Xiao-Ting Yang, Xin-Yu Fan, Xiao-Min Wang, Jia Qi, Hong-Jie Zhang, Tuo Wei, Wei Cui, Guang-Lu Ge, Zheng-Xiong Xi, Chun-Fu Wu and Xing-Jie Liang
doi:10.1038/nnano.2016.23
Single-walled carbon nanotubes in an aggregated form can inhibit the rewarding and psychomotor-stimulating effects of methamphetamine, and can control relapse to drug-seeking behaviour in mice.

A spin–orbit torque switching scheme with collinear magnetic easy axis and current configuration   pp621 - 625
S. Fukami, T. Anekawa, C. Zhang and H. Ohno
doi:10.1038/nnano.2016.29
Although spin–orbit torque switching demonstrations have so far been based on the magnetic easy axis orthogonal to the current, it is possible to produce schemes with the easy axis parallel to the current.

Layered reduced graphene oxide with nanoscale interlayer gaps as a stable host for lithium metal anodes   pp626 - 632
Dingchang Lin, Yayuan Liu, Zheng Liang, Hyun-Wook Lee, Jie Sun, Haotian Wang, Kai Yan, Jin Xie and Yi Cui
doi:10.1038/nnano.2016.32
Volumetric changes during cycling in lithium metal anodes can be largely suppressed by using a lithophilic carbonaceous host.

Wafer-scale monodomain films of spontaneously aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes   pp633 - 638

doi:10.1038/nnano.2016.44
Large films of aligned and closely packed single-walled carbon nanotubes can be prepared through slow vacuum filtration, and used to create terahertz polarizers, thin-film transistors, polarized light emission devices, and polarization-sensitive detectors.
