Naturally occurring spatiotemporal patterns typically have a predictable pattern design and are reproducible over several cycles. However, the patterns obtained from artificially designed out-of-equilibrium chemical oscillating networks (such as the Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction for example) are unpredictable and difficult to control spatiotemporally, albeit reproducible over subsequent cycles. Here, we show that it is possible to generate reproducible spatiotemporal patterns in out-of-equilibrium chemical reactions and self-assembling systems in water in the presence of sound waves, which act as a guiding physical stimulus. Audible sound-induced liquid vibrations control the dissolution of atmospheric gases (such as O₂ and CO₂) in water to generate spatiotemporal chemical patterns in the bulk of the fluid, segregating the solution into spatiotemporal domains having different redox properties or pH values. It further helps us in the organization of transiently formed supramolecular aggregates in a predictable spatiotemporal manner.

自然发生的时空模式通常具有可预测的模式设计，并且可以在多个周期内重现。但是，从人为设计的非平衡化学振荡网络（例如Belousov-Zhabotinsky反应）获得的模式是不可预测的，并且尽管在随后的循环中可以重现，但很难在时间上控制时空。在这里，我们表明有可能在水中存在声波的情况下，在不平衡的化学反应和自组装系统中产生可重现的时空模式，这些声波起着物理物理刺激的作用。可听见的声音引起的液体振动控制着大气气体（例如O ₂和CO _2）的溶解）在水中以在大部分流体中产生时空化学模式，从而将溶液隔离到具有不同氧化还原特性或pH值的时空域中。它进一步帮助我们以可预测的时空方式组织瞬时形成的超分子聚集体。
