Oligosilane-nanofibers can be prepared through fabrication of permethyldecasilane within a helical superstructure of schizophyllan.
[chemical structure: see text]. Schizophyllan can interact with permethyldecasilane to produce the corresponding decasilane-nanofiber, in which the decasilane adopts helical conformations in a tubular hollow created by the helical superstructure of schizophyllan.
