Article Abstract
In this work, π-conjugated block copolymers consisting of poly(phenyl isocyanide) (PPI) and polyfluorene (PF) segments are facilely prepared by one-pot sequential polymerization of phenyl isocyanide (monomer 1) and 7-bromo-9,9-dioctylfluorene-2-boronic acid pinacol ester (monomer 2). The Pd(II)-terminated PPI is first prepared via polymerizing monomer 1 catalyzed with phenyl alkyne-Pd(II) complex and then utilized to initiate the controlled Suzuki cross-coupling polymerization of monomer 2, yielding various PPI-b-PF copolymers possessing controlled molar mass and narrow dispersity. Owing to the helical conformation of PPI segment and π-conjugated structure of PF segment, PPI-b-PF copolymers present distinctive optical property and fascinating chiral self-assembly behavior. During the self-assembly process, chirality transfer from helical PPI block to the supramolecular aggregates of helical nanofibers occurs to afford optically active helical nanofibers with high optical activity. Furthermore, the self-assembled helical nanofibers exhibit excellent circularly polarized luminescence performance.

Circularly polarized organic light-emitting diodes (CP-OLEDs) exhibiting circularly polarized electroluminescence (CP-EL) properties hold significant promise for future display technologies. However, enhancing the electroluminescence dissymmetry factor ( ) remains a substantial challenge. Herein, ultrastrong CP-EL emissions are achieved using a liquid crystal (LC)-functionalization strategy under the regulation of chiral co-assembly.

High-charge-density triboelectric materials are the key to developing high-performance triboelectric nanogenerators. However, most semi-crystalline biopolymers exhibit low triboelectric output performance due to the limitations in their intrinsic structure and physicochemical properties. Herein, orientation-regulated silk fibroin nanofibers (SFNs) with phase transition polarization and enhanced carrier migration are developed through high-voltage and high-speed synergistic electrospinning technology.

Peptide self-assembly is a promising process in which the conformations formed during dynamic stages play a crucial role in determining the resulting self-assembly morphologies and structural parameters. These unique conformations also hold potential for the de novo design of supramolecular peptide nanomaterials with tailored properties. In this work, we explore the impact of incorporating an α-helix neuropeptide Y fragment (NPY) into amyloid peptide EFFE, focusing on its influence on β-sheet self-assembly.

Spontaneous association of multiple components into coassemblies significantly amplifies the complexity of supramolecular systems. Owing to varied noncovalent interactions, the precise regulation of the copolymerization pathway, molecular arrangement, and assembled morphology remains a huge challenge. Here, we report an intriguing system as the first example of using complementary stereocomplexation between enantiomeric (lactic acid)s (LAs) to govern the supramolecular copolymerization behavior of a series of amphiphilic peptide conjugates.
