This Review covers the recent developments (2005–2015) in the design, synthesis,
characterization, and application of thermotropic ionic liquid crystals. It was designed to give …

The incorporation of nanoscopic particles into ordered nanostructures afforded by block
copolymers can provide control over particle distribution and orientation. This could enable …

This Perspective provides a current survey on the synthesis, self-assembly, and vast variety
of applications possible from block copolymer (BCP) systems containing at least one …

Supramolecular polymer gels are precisely designed physical gels brought together by
reversible secondary interactions to form three dimensional networks of melt …

Dendrimers are branched or hyperbranched synthetic oligomers or macromolecules with
their size, molar masses, number of end groups and delicate compositions being precisely …

The hierarchical assemblies of supramolecules, which consisted of polystyrene-b-poly (4-
vinylpyridine)(PS-b-P4VP) with 3-pentadecylphenol (PDP) hydrogen-bonded to the 4VP …

We report a strategy that combines supramolecular assembly and solvent annealing to
manipulate the microdomain orientation in block copolymer thin films. In supramolecular thin …

Due to their ability to microphase separate into well ordered structures with periodicities on
the nanometre scale, block copolymers have received widespread attention as building …

Organic small molecule semiconductors have many advantages over their polymer
analogues. However, to fabricate organic semiconductor-based devices using solution …

The phase behavior of supramolecular assemblies (SMA) formed by polystyrene-block-poly
(4-vinylpyridine)(PS-b-P4VP) with 2-(4′-hydroxybenzeneazo) benzoic acid (HABA) was …
