Photoresponsive Supramolecular Amphiphiles for Controlled Self-Assembly of Nanofibers and Vesicles
The fabrication of photoresponsive supramolecular amphiphiles is demonstrated. The supramolecular amphiphile can self-assemble in water to form uniform nanofibers. Interestingly, the nanofiber can readily transform into vesicles in response to UV irradiation.
