ORGANIZED STRUCTURES OF AMPHIPHILIC COMPONENTS AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME

摘要

The invention provides method of using alternating polar and non-polar segments in nanorod structures to control the assembly of the rods into flat two-dimensional and curved three dimensional structures. With these methods, different architectures can be systematically formed by controlling the composition of the nanorod structures and the ratio of the lengths of different material segments that compose the nanorods.
