Supramolecular Amphiphiles Based on a Water‐Soluble Charge‐Transfer Complex: Fabrication of Ultralong Nanofibers with Tunable Straightness

Abstract

From curly to straight: The formation of a charge-transfer complex is driven by the combination of Coulombic attraction and charge transfer interactions. The charge-transfer complex which is obtained from a supramolecular amphiphile (see picture) is water-soluble and forms ultralong nanofibers, the straightness of which can be modulated by changing the pH of the reaction solution.
