New Metal-organic Polymers Through Subcomponent Self-Assembly.

摘要

ARO support has enabled the development of a new type of functional metal-containing polymeric material. Our key innovation has been to shift complexity away from devices, which are challenging to fabricate, and into molecules, which are challenging to synthesize. An understanding of self- assembly rules can then be used shift intellectual effort away from designing individual molecules and towards the design of systems that can self assemble to express a desired function.
