However, current studies on photo-controllable zeta potential are based on ultraviolet (UV) light. In comparison with UV light, visible light is better suited to control the zeta potential of colloidal nanoparticles. In the present study, we applied visible light-responsive ruthenium (Ru) complexes, grafted onto the surface of silica nanoparticles (Ru-SNPs), to control their assembly. The Ru complexes were photoresponsive. Irradiation of Ru-SNPs induced the release of Ru complexes from the nanoparticle surface. The released Ru caused a decrease in the zeta potential of colloidal Ru-SNPs that further changed the assembly behavior and led to the aggregation of Ru-SNPs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101187,"journal":{"name":"Supramolecular Materials","volume":"1 ","pages":"Article 100004"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2667240521000040/pdfft?md5=14f8a828cdd2800716e72b078177dba4&pid=1-s2.0-S2667240521000040-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82455507","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, it remains challenging to study the strength of cation-π interactions at the single-molecule level. Here, we engineer a recombinant chimeric polyprotein containing the mussel foot proteins-5 (MFP5) and a finger print domain GB1 to unambiguiously quantify the strength of cation-π interactions using atomic force microscopy (AFM)-based single-molecule force spectroscopy. Our results show that the formation of intermolecular cation-π interactions can be triggered at elevated salt concentrations, consistent with previous ensemble studies. Individual cation-π interaction ruptures at about 70 pN at a pulling speed of 1.6 μm s⁻¹, comparable to the strength of other non-covalent interactions. The strength of cation-π interactions is weakly dependent on pH, which is in stark contrast with the hydrogen bonding and charge-charge interactions. Moreover, we find that the position of the cation-π bonds are formed randomly along the polyprotein chains. The propensity of forming long range cation-π interactions increases considerably when increasing the pH from 4 to 8, presumably due to the neutralization of the positive changes of MFP5. Our study directly quantifies the mechanical strength of cation-π bonds in the biological relavent settings and reveals key design parameters that may inspire the design of biomimetic strong underwater adhesives.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101187,"journal":{"name":"Supramolecular Materials","volume":"1 ","pages":"Article 100005"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2667240521000052/pdfft?md5=76b77905bf3d11637b83f0e1cd57cb36&pid=1-s2.0-S2667240521000052-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84334508","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the nature of the interfacial jamming, external stimuli can be used to re-shape the liquids, imparting a responsiveness and malleability to the constructs. In general, the binding energy of a NP to the interface is small, so that compressive forces associated with the reduction in the interfacial area to minimize energy, are sufficient to expel the NPs from the interface. By generating nanoparticle surfactants (NPSs), where ligands dissolved in one liquid can interfacially interact with NPs dispersed in a second immiscible liquid, the binding energy of the NP is massively increased, enabling an interfacial jamming of the NPSs and an arresting of shape changes. Since the jamming is immune to the nature of the NPs, advantage can be taken of the inherent functionality of the NPs, e.g., catalytic, enzymatic, optical, electronic or magnetic, while chemical functionality, including selective functional group recognition, can be introduced through the ligands comprising the NPSs. NPS assemblies can be realized at the interface between any two immiscible liquids (oil-water, oil-oil, and water-water), underscoring the generality of this concept and the range of potential applications. Here, we review some of the basic principles underlying the formation of NPSs and the structuring of liquids, using examples drawn from work in our laboratories and elsewhere, and we provide a perspective on where challenges and applications of this unique state of matter exist.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101187,"journal":{"name":"Supramolecular Materials","volume":"1 ","pages":"Article 100013"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S266724052200006X/pdfft?md5=f60dcc68baf161fe68ec5a691ae59c8d&pid=1-s2.0-S266724052200006X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136553697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
