Screen saver : A simple and convenient route has been developed that allows peptides that catalyze the growth of the target material to be screened directly. This approach has been used to identify a peptide that induces the catalytic growth of single‐crystalline ZnO nanocrystals through a nonclassical crystallization process at room temperature (see picture).
