title: Preparation and structural control of metal coordination-assisted supramolecular architectures of porphyrins. Nanocubes to microrods.
abstract: We have successfully prepared metal coordination-assisted porphyrin assemblies such as nanocubes, nanorods and microrods by controlling the synthetic conditions. The internal structures and lifetimes of the excited states are also quantitatively discussed.
