16 February 2017 Triarylamine-based supramolecular channels for ion and water transport
Please, have a look at our last JACS paper here. In this article in collaboration with Dr Barboiu in Montpellier, we demonstrate the construction of triarylamine-based supramolecular channels in...[more]
18 January 2017 Supramolecular polymers self-organize at the liquid-liquid interface
Please, have a look at our last JACS paper here. In this article, we show for the first time that supramolecular polymers of triarylamine units can grow and form a dense nematic layer at the...[more]
