Chemistry is progressively unraveling the processes that underlie the evolution of matter
towards states of higher complexity and the generation of novel features along the way by …

Large, hydrophilic polyoxoanions with high solubility in water and/or other polar solvents
demonstrate unique solution behavior by self-assembling into single layer, hollow, spherical …

Following Nature's lessons, today chemists can cross the boundary of the small molecule
world to construct multifunctional and highly complex molecular nano-objects up to protein …

Gigantic coordination molecules assembled from a large number of metal ions and organic
ligands are structurally and functionally challenging to characterize. Here we show that a …

Photothermal conversion is one of the most important keys in the fields of solar collection,
photo-hyperthermia, etc., and its performance is highly dependent on the photothermal …

Polyoxometalate cluster anions (POMs) control formation and morphology, and serve as
protecting ligands, for structurally and compositionally diverse nanostructures. While …

Structural variants of high‐nuclearity clusters are extremely important for their modular
assembly study and functional expansion, yet the synthesis of such giant structural variants …

Conspectus The combination of rational design of building components and suitable
utilization of driving force affords spontaneous molecular assemblies with well-defined …

Although various types of imaging agents have been developed for photoacoustic (PA)
imaging, relatively few imaging agents exhibit high selectivity/sensitivity to the tumor …

POMs sorgen für Poren: Eine Ionothermalsynthese führte zu porösen offenen Gerüsten auf
Polyoxometallat (POM)‐Basis, deren Strukturen beim Erwärmen bis 300° C unverändert …
