Self‐Limiting Polymerization‐Induced Crystallization‐Driven Self‐Assembly (SL‐PI‐CDSA) Enables Templated Synthesis of Chiral Plasmonic, Hybrid 2D Hexagonal Assemblies

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This work details the rapid generation (t ≤ 5 min) of size‐tunable, ultralow dispersity (Ð ≤ 1.01) 2D hexagonal nanosheets by self‐limiting polymerization‐induced crystallization‐driven self‐assembly (SL‐PI‐CDSA) of modular and templating poly(aryl isocyanide) block copolymers, with functions that permit post‐polymerization modifications. Specifically,
