Supramolecular polymers exhibit fascinating structures, and their properties, and thus
applications, depend both on the strength and dynamics of the non-covalent bonds and on …

In this review, we describe the recent advances in supramolecular helical assemblies
formed from chiral and achiral small molecules, oligomers (foldamers), and helical and …

In this review we intend to provide a relatively comprehensive summary of the work of
supramolecular hydrogelators after 2004 and to put emphasis particularly on the …

Advances in the field of supramolecular chemistry have made it possible, in many situations,
to reliably engineer soft materials to address a specific technological problem. Particularly …

Supramolecular chemistry originally defined by Lehn as “chemistry beyond molecules”
exploits noncovalent interactions between molecules to form 1D, 2D, and 3D …

Doping has been widely used to control the charge carrier concentration in organic
semiconductors. However, in conjugated polymers, n-doping is often limited by the tradeoff …

Supramolecular gels are a fascinating class of soft materials. Their gelators can self-
assemble into nano-or micro-scale superstructures, such as fibers, ribbons, sheets and …

1.1 Background In his historic review titled “Polymerization” in Chemical Reviews of 1931,
Wallace H. Carothers described his brilliant ideas about the rapidly developing field of …

Controlling supramolecular polymerization by external stimuli holds great potential toward
the development of responsive soft materials and manipulating self-assembly at the …

Conspectus π-Conjugation between heterocyclic donor (D) and acceptor (A) groups via a
polymethine chain leads to dyes with dipole moments greater than 10 D. These dipole …
