The research field of supramolecular polymerization has dramatically progressed in the last
three decades, and much deeper insights into its new mechanisms, including kinetic and …

Porphyrins and other tetrapyrrole macrocycles possess an impressive variety of functional
properties that have been exploited in natural and artificial systems. Different metal centres …

The transport of excitation energy in molecular aggregates is of crucial importance for the
function of organic optoelectronic devices and next‐generation solar cells. First, this review …

Self-assembled organic nanotubes made of single or multiple molecular components can be
classified into soft-matter nanotubes (SMNTs) by contrast with hard-matter nanotubes, such …

In this review, we survey the diversity of structures and functions which are encountered in
advanced self-assembled nanomaterials. We highlight their flourishing implementations in …

Given that energy (exciton) migration in natural photosynthesis primarily occurs in highly
ordered porphyrin-like pigments (chlorophylls), equally highly ordered porphyrin-based …

Abstract Development of organic theranostic agents that are active in the second near-
infrared (NIR-II, 1000–1700 nm) biowindow is of vital significance for treating deep-seated …

Supramolecular materials held together by noncovalent interactions, such as hydrogen
bonding, host–guest interactions, and electrostatic interactions, have great potential in …

A new amphiphilic BF2‐azadipyrromethene (aza‐BODIPY) dye 1 has been synthesized
using a CuI‐catalyzed “click” reaction. For this dye, two self‐assembly pathways that lead to …

Among the natural light-harvesting (LH) systems, those of green sulfur and nonsulfur
photosynthetic bacteria are exceptional because they lack the support of a protein matrix …
