title: Spectroscopic readout of polyoxometalates' molecular information via self-assembly.
abstract: Polyoxometalates [SiM12O40](4-) (M = Mo(VI), W(VI)) and hemicyanine-derived chiral amphiphiles self-assemble in organic media where intermolecular interactions between POMs and hemicyanine units differ depending on the constituent metal ion species: this information is amplified to distinct spectral and self-assembling characteristics.
