title: Co-organizing synthesis of heterogeneous nanostructures through the photo-cleavage of pre-stabilized self-assemblies.
abstract: We devised a co-organizing synthesis by targeting metastable assemblies. Applying a photo-cleavage reaction to the pre-stabilized self-assembled nanostructures, we could successfully place physical constraints on the initiating stage of the molecular co-assembly (CA) process for exotic nanostructures that are away from the thermodynamic minima.
