Peptide assembly : A 2D peptide (Aβ16‐22) film was produced successfully by introducing hydrated electrons into the assembly process of Aβ16‐22 (see figure). The interplay between experiment and theoretical calculation indicates that the film formation can be enhanced through the interactions between hydrated electrons and Aβ16‐22.
