Abstract
Over the last two decades, nanophotonics, including plasmonics and metamaterials, have promised compelling opportunities for exotic control over light-matter interactions. The strong chiral light-matter interaction is a representative example. Three-dimensional (3D) chirality has existed naturally only in organic molecules and bio-organisms, but a negligible chiroptic effect was attained with these naturally occurring materials because of their small absorption cross sections. However, inspired by biological chirality, nanophotonic chiral materials have greatly expanded the design space of accessible chiroptic effects (e.g., pushing the chiral light-matter interaction to an exceptional regime, such as a broad-band circular polarizer, negative refractive index, and sensitive chiral sensing). Nevertheless, it is still a challenge to achieve precisely defined and dynamically reconfigurable chiral morphologies that further increase the chiroptic effect. Biological systems continue to inspire approaches to the design and synthesis of precisely defined 3D nanostructures. In particular, a living organism can program the evolutionary pathway of highly complexed 3D chiral morphology precisely from the molecular scale to the macroscopic scale while simultaneously enabling dynamic reconfiguration of their chirality. What if we could harness the power of biological selectivity and evolutionary capability in synthesizing chiral plasmonic materials? We envisioned that platform technology mimicking biological principles would enable control of 3D chiral structures for effective plasmonic interactions with polarized light and further impart the concept of time-dependent evolution (3D + 1D = 4D) to bring about responsive and dynamic changes in chiral plasmonics. In this Account, we review our efforts to develop the biomolecule-based synthesis of 3D chiral plasmonic materials and share the vision that as in biological systems, chirality can be programmed at the molecular level and hierarchically transferred at multiple scales to develop macroscopic chirality. Accompanied by a biomimetic time-dependent chirality of singular plasmonic nanometals, we also summarize recent achievements in the chemistry and nanophotonics communities pursuing 4D plasmonics that are closely related to our research. The biomimetic and bioinspired approaches discussed in this Account will provide new synthetic insights into implementing chiral nanomaterials and extend the range of accessible nanophotonic design. We hope that the molecular encoding approach will be useful to achieve dynamic light-matter interactions at unprecedented dimensions, time scales, and chirality.

Abstract
Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) reflects the excited-state properties of the chiral system. However, compared to the singlet and triplet excited states, there are still many unknowns about CPL from the double excited state. Here, using the self-assembly strategy of a dipeptide substituted naphthalenediimide (NDI-GE) and the photogenerated radical anions, we have explored the ground-state (CD) and excited-state (CPL) chiral characteristics of neutral NDI and NDI•- radical anion assemblies. The neutral gelator assemblies showed CPL with the dissymmetry factor glum on the order of 10-3; the radical anion exhibited an inversed CPL signal with a significantly enhanced glum of 10-1. Time-dependent density functional theory calculation revealed that upon formation of the radical anions, the direction of the dipole moment changed, thus leading to the inversion of CD and CPL. The present work reveals a new platform for developing CPL materials based on the doublet excited state.

Abstract
We report here the fabrication of a multiple stimuli-responsive chiral plasmonic system based on the reversible self-assembly of phenylboronic acid-capped gold nanorods (PBA-Au NRs) guided by a supramolecular glycopeptide mimetic template. The plasmonic chiral signals of PBA-Au NRs can be reversibly switched on and off by temperature, light, pH and glucose concentration variations.

Abstract
The creation and transmission of chirality in molecular systems is a well-known, widely applied notion. Our understanding of how the chirality of nanomaterials can be controlled, measured, transmitted through space, and applied is less well understood. Dynamic assemblies for chiral sensing or metamaterials engineered from chiral nanomaterials require exact methods to determine transmission and amplification of nanomaterial chirality through space. We report the synthesis of a series of gold nanorods (GNRs) with a constant aspect ratio of ∼4.3 capped with C2-symmetric, axially chiral binaphthyl thiols, preparation of dispersions in the nematic liquid crystal 5CB, measurements of the helical pitch, and the determination of the helical twisting power as well as the average distance between the chiral nanomaterial additives. By comparison to the neat organic chiral derivatives, we demonstrate how the amplification of chirality facilitated by GNRs decorated with chiral molecules can be used to clearly distinguish the chiral induction strength of a homologous series of binaphthyl derivatives, differing only in the length of the nontethered aliphatic chain, in the induced chiral nematic liquid crystal phase. Considering systematic errors in sample preparation and optical measurements, these chiral molecules would otherwise be deemed identical with respect to chiral induction. Notably, we find some of the highest ever-reported values of the helical twisting power. We further support our experimentally derived arguments of a more comprehensive understanding of chirality transfer by calculations of a suitable pseudoscalar chirality indicator.

Abstract
Control over the handedness of circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) in supramolecular gels is of special significance in biology and optoelectronics; however, it still remains a great challenge to precisely and efficiently regulate the chirality of CPL. Herein, a chiral phenylalanine-derived hydrogelator and achiral coumarin derivatives can co-assemble into nanofibrous hydrogels with controllable chirality, and the handedness of CPL of these hydrogels can be efficiently inverted by coumarin derivatives through noncovalent interactions, which can be further tuned at will by incorporating metal ions into the co-assembly. The hydrogen bonds, coordination interactions, and steric hindrance are proved to be the crucial factors for the CPL inversion. This study provides feasible strategies to efficiently regulate the handedness of CPL through co-assembly, and these CPL materials may have potential applications in the fields of photoelectric devices, smart chiroptical materials, and biological systems.

Abstract
We present a comprehensive review of recent developments in the field of chiral plasmonics. Significant advances have been made recently in understanding the working principles of chiral plasmonic structures. With advances in micro- and nanofabrication techniques, a variety of chiral plasmonic nanostructures have been experimentally realized; these tailored chiroptical properties vastly outperform those of their molecular counterparts. We focus on chiral plasmonic nanostructures created using bottom-up approaches, which not only allow for rational design and fabrication but most intriguingly in many cases also enable dynamic manipulation and tuning of chiroptical responses. We first discuss plasmon-induced chirality, resulting from the interaction of chiral molecules with plasmonic excitations. Subsequently, we discuss intrinsically chiral colloids, which give rise to optical chirality owing to their chiral shapes. Finally, we discuss plasmonic chirality, achieved by arranging achiral plasmonic particles into handed configurations on static or active templates. Chiral plasmonic nanostructures are very promising candidates for real-life applications owing to their significantly larger optical chirality than natural molecules. In addition, chiral plasmonic nanostructures offer engineerable and dynamic chiroptical responses, which are formidable to achieve in molecular systems. We thus anticipate that the field of chiral plasmonics will attract further widespread attention in applications ranging from enantioselective analysis to chiral sensing, structural determination, and in situ ultrasensitive detection of multiple disease biomarkers, as well as optical monitoring of transmembrane transport and intracellular metabolism.

Abstract
In this study, water-soluble semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) showing induced circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) in an organic-inorganic coassembled hydrogel were demonstrated. Achiral QDs could be encapsulated into a chiral peptide dendron hydrogel through cogelation. These cogels displayed intense induced circularly polarized emission. In addition, the direction of the CPL property of QD cogels could be regulated by the supramolecular chirality of hydrogels. Our findings reveal that the emergence of CPL achiral QDs can be triggered by the chirality transfer in a multiple-component dendron hydrogel system. This study has given a new understanding into the design of functional chiroptical materials.

Abstract
The interactions between chiral nanomaterials and organisms are still challenging and mysterious. Here, a chiral nanodevice made of yolk-shell nanoparticles tetrahedron (UYTe), centralized with upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), was fabricated to induce autophagy in vivo. The proposed chiral nanodevice displayed a tunable circular dichroism (CD) signal when modified with different enantiomers of glutathione (GSH). Notably, UYTe showed significant chirality-dependent autophagy-inducing ability after D-GSH-modification because the enhanced oxidative stress and accumulation in living cell. The activation of autophagy resulted in the reduced intracellular CD intensity from the disassembly of the structure. The intracellular ATP concentration was simultaneously enhanced in response to autophagy activity, which was quantitatively bio-imaged with the upconversion luminescence (UCL) signal of the UCNP that escaped from UYTe. The autophagy effect induced in vivo by the chiral UYTe was also visualized with UCL imaging, demonstrating the great potential utility of the chiral nanostructure for cellular biological applications.

Abstract
Chiral metamaterials have attracted strong interest due to their versatile capabilities in spin-dependent light manipulation. Benefiting from advancements in nanofabrication and mechanistic understanding of chiroptical effects, chiral metamaterials have shown potential in a variety of applications including circular polarizers, chiral sensors, and chiroptical detectors. Recently, chiral metamaterials made by moiré stacking, superimposing two or more periodic patterns with different lattice constants or relative spatial displacement, have shown promise for chiroptical applications. The moiré chiral metamaterials (MCMs) take advantage of lattice-dependent chirality, giving cost-effective fabrication, flexible tunability, and reconfigurability superior to conventional chiral metamaterials. This feature article focuses on recent progress of MCMs. We discuss optical mechanisms, structural design, fabrication, and applications of the MCMs. We conclude with our perspectives on the future opportunities for the MCMs.

Abstract
The intrinsic properties of nanomaterials offer promise for technological revolutions in many fields, including transportation, soft robotics, and energy. Unfortunately, the exploitation of such properties in polymer nanocomposites is extremely challenging due to the lack of viable dispersion routes when the filler content is high. We usually face a dichotomy between the degree of nanofiller loading and the degree of dispersion (and, thus, performance) because dispersion quality decreases with loading. Here, we demonstrate a potentially scalable pressing-and-folding method (P & F), inspired by the art of croissant-making, to efficiently disperse ultrahigh loadings of nanofillers in polymer matrices. A desired nanofiller dispersion can be achieved simply by selecting a sufficient number of P & F cycles. Because of the fine microstructural control enabled by P & F, mechanical reinforcements close to the theoretical maximum and independent of nanofiller loading (up to 74 vol %) were obtained. We propose a universal model for the P & F dispersion process that is parametrized on an experimentally quantifiable " D factor". The model represents a general guideline for the optimization of nanocomposites with enhanced functionalities including sensing, heat management, and energy storage.

Abstract
![]()
The ability to dynamically tune the
self-assembled structures of
nanoparticles is of significant interest in the fields of chemistry
and material studies. However, it continues to be challenging to dynamically
tune the chiral superstructures of nanoparticles and actively switch
the chiral optical properties thereof. Here, we dynamically controlled
a gold nanorod 3D chiral plasmonic superstructure (a stair helix with
a pinwheel end view) templated by a DNA origami supramolecular polymer,
using DNA-toehold-mediated conformational change in the DNA template.
The gold nanorod chiral plasmonic helix was controllably reconfigured
between a tightly folded state (with a small inter-rod angle) and
an extended state (with a wide inter-rod angle) of the same handedness,
or between two mirror-image-like structures of opposite handedness.
As a result, the chiral plasmonic properties of the gold nanorod helix
superstructures, in terms of the circular dichroism amplitude, peak
response frequency, and signature of chirality, were actively switched
upon the DNA-guided structural reconfiguration. We envision that the
strategy demonstrated here will boost the advancement of reconfigurable
chiral materials with increased complexity for active light control
applications through rational molecular design and predictable self-assembly
procedures.

Abstract
Abstract
Layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly produces nanocomposites with distinctively high volume fractions of nanomaterials and nanometer scale controlled uniformity. Although deposition of one nanometer scale layer at a time leads to high performance composites, this deposition mode is also associated with the slow multilayer build-up. Exponential LBL, spin coating, turbo-LBL and other methods tremendously accelerate the multilayer build-up but often yield lower, strength, toughness, conductivity, etc. Here, we introduce gelation assisted layer-by-layer (gaLBL) deposition taking advantage of a repeating cycle of hydrogel formation and subsequent polymer infiltration demonstrated using aramid nanofiber (ANF) and epoxy resin (EPX) as deposition partners. Utilization of ANF gels increases the thickness of each deposited layer from 1–10 nm to 30–300 nm while retaining fine control of thickness in each layer, high volume fraction, and uniformity. While increasing the speed of the deposition, the high density of interfaces associated with nanofiber gels helps retain high mechanical properties. The ANF/EPX multilayer composites revealed a rare combination of properties that was unavailable in traditional aramid-based and other composites, namely, high ultimate strength of 505±47 MPa, high toughness of 50.1±9.8 MJ/m3, and high transparency. Interestingly, the composite also displayed close-to-zero thermal expansion. The constellation of these materials properties is unique both for quasi-anisotropic composites and unidirectional materials with nanofiber alignment. gaLBL demonstrates the capability to resolve the fundamental challenge between high-performance and scalability. The gelation-assisted layered deposition can be extended to other functional components including nanoparticle gels.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a kind of single-stranded small RNA molecules, play a crucial role in physiological and pathological processes in human beings. We describe here the detection of miRNA, by side-by-side self-assembly of plasmonic nanorod dimers in living cells, which gives rise to a distinct intense chiroplasmonic response and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The dynamic assembly of chiral nanorods was confirmed by fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), also in living cells. Our study provides insights into in situ self-assembly of plasmonic probes for the real-time measurement of biomarkers in living cells. This could improve the current understanding of cellular RNA-protein complexes, pharmaco-genomics, and genetic diagnosis and therapies.

Abstract
Molecular chirality and the inherently connected differential absorption of circular polarized light (CD) combined with semiconducting properties offers great potential for chiral opto-electronics. Here we discuss the temperature-controlled assembly of enantiopure prolinol functionalized squaraines with opposite handedness into intrinsically circular dichroic, molecular J-aggregates in spincasted thin films. By Mueller matrix spectroscopy we accurately probe an extraordinary high excitonic circular dichroism, which is not amplified by mesoscopic ordering effects. At maximum, CD values of 1000 mdeg/nm are reached and, after accounting for reflection losses related to the thin film nature, we obtain a film thickness independent dissymmetry factor g = 0.75. The large oscillator strength of the corresponding absorption within the deep-red spectral range translates into a negative real part of the dielectric function in the spectral vicinity of the exciton resonance. Thereby, we provide a new small molecular benchmark material for the development of organic thin film based chiroptics.

Abstract
Ultrathin active chiral metamaterials with dynamically tunable and responsive optical chirality enable new optical sensors, modulators, and switches. Herein, we develop ultrathin active chiral metamaterials of highly tunable chiroptical responses by inducing tunable near-field coupling in the metamaterials and exploit the metamaterials as ultrasensitive sensors to detect trace amounts of solvent impurities. To demonstrate the active chiral metamaterials mediated by tunable near-field coupling, we design moiré chiral metamaterials (MCMs) as model metamaterials, which consist of two layers of identical Au nanohole arrays stacked upon one another in moiré patterns with a dielectric spacer layer between the Au layers. Our simulations, analytical fittings, and experiments reveal that spacer-dependent near-field coupling exists in the MCMs, which significantly enhances the spectral shift and line shape change of the circular dichroism (CD) spectra of the MCMs. Furthermore, we use a silk fibroin thin film as the spacer layer in the MCM. With the solvent-controllable swelling of the silk fibroin thin films, we demonstrate actively tunable near-field coupling and chiroptical responses of the silk-MCMs. Impressively, we have achieved the spectral shift over a wavelength range that is more than one full width at half-maximum and the sign inversion of the CD spectra in a single ultrathin (1/5 of wavelength in thickness) MCM. Finally, we apply the silk-MCMs as ultrasensitive sensors to detect trace amounts of solvent impurities down to 200 ppm, corresponding to an ultrahigh sensitivity of >105 nm/refractive index unit (RIU) and a figure of merit of 105/RIU.

Abstract
Chiral inorganic nanostructures have high circular dichroism, but real-time control of their optical activity has so far been achieved only by irreversible chemical changes. Field modulation is a far more desirable path to chiroptical devices. We hypothesized that magnetic field modulation can be attained for chiral nanostructures with large contributions of the magnetic transition dipole moments to polarization rotation. We found that dispersions and gels of paramagnetic Co3O4 nanoparticles with chiral distortions of the crystal lattices exhibited chiroptical activity in the visible range that was 10 times as strong as that of nonparamagnetic nanoparticles of comparable size. Transparency of the nanoparticle gels to circularly polarized light beams in the ultraviolet range was reversibly modulated by magnetic fields. These phenomena were also observed for other nanoscale metal oxides with lattice distortions from imprinted amino acids and other chiral ligands. The large family of chiral ceramic nanostructures and gels can be pivotal for new technologies and knowledge at the nexus of chirality and magnetism.

Abstract
Planar nanocrystal/bulk heterostructures are transformed into 3D architectures by taking advantage of the different chemical and mechanical properties of nanocrystal and bulk thin films. Nanocrystal/bulk heterostructures are fabricated via bottom-up assembly and top-down fabrication. The nanocrystals are capped by long ligands introduced in their synthesis, and therefore their surfaces are chemically addressable, and their assemblies are mechanically "soft," in contrast to the bulk films. Chemical modification of the nanocrystal surface, exchanging the long ligands for more compact chemistries, triggers large volume shrinkage of the nanocrystal layer and drives bending of the nanocrystal/bulk heterostructures. Exploiting the differential chemo-mechanical properties of nanocrystal and bulk materials, the scalable fabrication of designed 3D, cell-sized nanocrystal/bulk superstructures is demonstrated, which possess unique functions derived from nanocrystal building blocks.

Abstract
The selective large-scale syntheses of noble metal nanocrystals with complex shapes using wet-chemical approaches remain exciting challenges. Here we report the chirality-controllable syntheses of double-helical Au nanowires (NWs) using chiral soft-templates composed of two organogelators with their own active functions; one organogelator serves to introduce helicity into the template and the other acts as a capping agent to control the Au shape. One-dimensional twisted-nanoribbon templates are prepared simply by mixing the two organogelators in water containing a small amount of toluene, followed by the addition of LiCl; template chirality is controlled through the selection of the handedness of the helicity-inducing organogelator. Double-helical Au NWs synthesized on these chiral templates have the same helical structure as the template because the Au NWs grow along both edges of the twisted nanoribbons with right- or left-handed helicities. Dispersions of the right- and left-handed double-helical Au NWs exhibit opposite CD signals.

Abstract
Chiral self-assembled organic nanoparticles with circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) properties can be utilized as a new kind of chiral luminescent materials for practical applications. However, no such chiral organic nanoparticles with full-color and white CPL properties have been reported so far. Herein, five pairs of self-assembled chiral nanoparticles based on optically stable helical aromatic amide enantiomers were conveniently obtained. The chiral nanoparticles showed about 200 nm uniform sphere, high fluorescence quantum yields, and large Stokes shifts. Especially, the chiral nanoparticles exhibited both obvious mirror-image circular dichroism signals and full-color CPL properties with luminescence dissymmetry factors of about 10-3, which were comparable to those of CPL-active quantum dots. Moreover, the chiral organic nanoparticles with white CPL could also be easily achieved using the three-primary-color enantiomers via intermolecular energy resonance transfer.

Abstract
Photomechanically reconfigurable elastic single crystals are the key elements for contactless, timely controllable and spatially resolved transduction of light into work from the nanoscale to the macroscale. The deformation in such single-crystal actuators is observed and usually attributed to anisotropy in their structure induced by the external stimulus. Yet, the actual intrinsic and external factors that affect the mechanical response remain poorly understood, and the lack of rigorous models stands as the main impediment towards benchmarking of these materials against each other and with much better developed soft actuators based on polymers, liquid crystals and elastomers. Here, experimental approaches for precise measurement of macroscopic strain in a single crystal bent by means of a solid-state transformation induced by light are developed and used to extract the related temperature-dependent kinetic parameters. The experimental results are compared against an overarching mathematical model based on the combined consideration of light transport, chemical transformation and elastic deformation that does not require fitting of any empirical information. It is demonstrated that for a thermally reversible photoreactive bending crystal, the kinetic constants of the forward (photochemical) reaction and the reverse (thermal) reaction, as well as their temperature dependence, can be extracted with high accuracy. The improved kinematic model of crystal bending takes into account the feedback effect, which is often neglected but becomes increasingly important at the late stages of the photochemical reaction in a single crystal. The results provide the most rigorous and exact mathematical description of photoinduced bending of a single crystal to date.

Abstract
The functional properties of nanoparticle thin films depend strongly on the arrangement of the nanoparticles within the material. In particular, anisotropic optoelectronic properties can be achieved through the aligned assembly of 1D nanomaterials such as silver nanowires (AgNWs). However, the control of the hierarchical organization of these nanoscale building blocks across multiple length scales and over large areas is still a challenge. Here, we show that the oriented deposition of AgNWs using grazing incidence spraying of the nano-object suspensions on a substrate comprising parallel surface wrinkles readily produces highly oriented monolayer thin films on macroscopic areas (>5 × 5 mm2). The use of textured substrates enhances the degree of ordering as compared to flat ones and increases the area over which AgNWs are oriented. The resulting microscopic linear arrangement of AgNWs evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) reflects in a pronounced macroscopic optical anisotropy measured by conventional polarized UV-vis-NIR spectroscopy. The enhanced ordering obtained when spraying is done in the same direction as the wrinkles makes this approach more robust against small rotational offsets during preparation. On the contrary, the templating effect of the wrinkle topography can even dominate the shear-driven alignment when spraying is performed perpendicular to the wrinkles: the concomitant but opposing influence of topographic confinement (alignment along the wrinkles) and of spray-induced shear forces (orientation along the spraying direction) lead to films in which the predominant orientation of AgNWs gradually changes from one direction to its perpendicular one over the same substrate in a single processing step. This demonstrates that exploiting the subtle balance between shear forces and substrate-nanowire interactions mediated by wrinkles offers a new way to control the self-assembly of nanoparticles into more complex patterns.

Abstract
A major challenge facing plasmon nanophotonics is the poor dynamic tunability. A functional nanophotonic element would feature the real-time sizable tunability of transmission, reflection of light's intensity or polarization over a broad range of wavelengths, and would be robust and easy to integrate. Several approaches have been explored so far including mechanical deformation, thermal, or refractive index effects, and all-optical switching. Here we devise an ultrathin chiroptical surface, built on two-dimensional nanoantennas, where the chiral light transmission is controlled by the externally applied magnetic field. The magnetic field-induced modulation of the far-field chiroptical response with this surface exceeds 100% in the visible and near-infrared spectral ranges, opening the route for nanometer-thin magnetoplasmonic light-modulating surfaces tuned in real time and featuring a broad spectral response.

Abstract
Designing chiral materials to manipulate the biological activities of cells has been an important area not only in chemistry and material science, but also in cell biology and biomedicine. Here, we introduce monolayer plasmonic chiral Au nanoparticle (NP) films modified with L- or D-penicillamine (Pen) to be developed for cell growth, differentiation, and retrieval. The monolayer films display high chiroptical activity, with circular dichroism values of 3.5 mdeg at 550 nm and 26.8 mdeg at 775 nm. The L-Pen-NP films accelerate cell proliferation, whereas the D -Pen-NP films have the opposite effect. Remote irradiation with light is chosen to noninvasively collect the cells. The results demonstrate that left circularly polarized light improves the efficiency of cell detachment up to 91.2% for L-Pen-NP films. These findings will facilitate the development of cell culture in biomedical application and help to understand natural homochirality.

Abstract
The intra- and extracellular positioning of plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) can dramatically alter their curative/diagnostic abilities and medical outcomes. However, the inability of common spectroscopic identifiers to register the events of transmembrane transport denies their intracellular vs. extracellular localization even for cell cultures. Here we show that the chiroptical activity of DNA-bridged NP dimers allows one to follow the process of internalization of the particles by the mammalian cells and to distinguish their extra- vs intra-cellular localizations by real-time spectroscopy in ensemble. Circular dichroism peaks in the visible range change from negative to positive during transmembrane transport. The chirality reversal is associated with a spontaneous twisting motion around the DNA bridge caused by the large change in electrostatic repulsion between NPs when the dimers move from interstitial fluid to cytosol. This finding opens the door for spectroscopic targeting of plasmonic nanodrugs and quantitative assessment of nanoscale interactions. The efficacy of dichroic targeting of chiral nanostructures for biomedical applications is exemplified here as photodynamic therapy of malignancies. The efficacy of cervical cancer cell elimination was drastically increased when circular polarization of incident photons matched to the preferential absorption of dimers localized inside the cancer cells, which is associated with the increased generation of reactive oxygen species and their preferential intracellular localization. The ability to spectroscopically pinpoint whether nanoparticles are located inside or outside of cells represents an overarching need in biology and medicine. Here, the authors show that the chirality of DNA-bridged particle dimers reverses when they cross the cell membrane, providing a real-time chiroptical signature of their intra- or extracellular location.

Abstract
Binary supramolecular gels based on achiral azobenzene derivatives and a chiral chaperone gelator, long-alkyl-chain-substituted L-Histidine (abbreviated as LHC18) that could assist many nongelling acids in forming gels, were investigated in order to fabricate the chiroptical gel materials in a simple way. It was found that although the carboxylic acid-terminated achiral azobenzene derivatives could not form gels in any solvents, when mixed with LHC18 they formed the co-gels and self-assembled into various morphologies ranging from nanotubes and loose nanotubes to nanosheets, depending on the substituent groups on the azobenzene moiety. The ether linkage and the number of carboxylic acid groups attached to the azobenzene moiety played important roles. Upon gel formation, the localized molecular chirality in LHC18 could be transferred to the azobenzene moiety. Combined with the trans-cis isomerization of the azobenzene, optically and chiroptically reversible gels were generated. It was found that the gel based on azobenzene with two carboxylic acid groups and ether linkages showed clear optical reversibility but less chiroptical reversibility, whereas the gel based on azobenzene with one carboxylic acid and an ether linkage showed both optical and chiroptical reversibility. Thus, new insights into the relationship among the molecular structures of the azobenzene, self-assembled nanostructures in the gel and the optical and chiroptical reversibility were disclosed.

Abstract
The chirality of nanoparticles (NPs) and their assemblies has been investigated predominantly for noble metals and II-VI semiconductors. However, ceramic NPs represent the majority of nanoscale materials in nature. The robustness and other innate properties of ceramics offer technological opportunities in catalysis, biomedical sciences, and optics. Here we report the preparation of chiral ceramic NPs, as represented by tungsten oxide hydrate, WO3-x·H2O, dispersed in ethanol. The chirality of the metal oxide core, with an average size of ca. 1.6 nm, is imparted by proline (Pro) and aspartic acid (Asp) ligands via bio-to-nano chirality transfer. The amino acids are attached to the NP surface through C-O-W linkages formed from dissociated carboxyl groups and through amino groups weakly coordinated to the NP surface. Surprisingly, the dominant circular dichroism bands for NPs coated by Pro and Asp are different despite the similarity in the geometry of the NPs; they are positioned at 400-700 nm and 500-1100 nm for Pro- and Asp-modified NPs, respectively. The differences in the spectral positions of the main chiroptical band for the two types of NPs are associated with the molecular binding of the two amino acids to the NP surface; Asp has one additional C-O-W linkage compared to Pro, resulting in stronger distortion of the inorganic crystal lattice and greater intensity of CD bands associated with the chirality of the inorganic core. The chirality of WO3-x·H2O atomic structure is confirmed by atomistic molecular dynamics simulations. The proximity of the amino acids to the mineral surface is associated with the catalytic abilities of WO3-x·H2O NPs. We found that NPs facilitate formation of peptide bonds, leading to Asp-Asp and Asp-Pro dipeptides. The chiroptical activity, chemical reactivity, and biocompatibility of tungsten oxide create a unique combination of properties relevant to chiral optics, chemical technologies, and biomedicine.

Abstract
2D materials possess many interesting properties, and have shown great application potentials. In this work, the development of humidity-responsive, 2D plasmonic nanostructures with switchable chromogenic properties upon wetting-dewetting transitions is reported. By exploiting DNA hybridization-directed anchoring of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) on substrates, a series of single-nanoparticle-layer (SNL) plasmonic films is fabricated. Due to the collective plasmonic responses in SNL, these ultrathin 2D films display rapid and reversible red-blue color change upon the wetting-dewetting transition, suggesting that hydration-induced microscopic plasmonic coupling between AuNPs is replicated in the macroscopic, centimeter-scale films. It is also found that hydration finely tunes the electric field distribution between AuNPs in the SNL film, based on which responsive surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrates with spatially homogeneous hot spots are developed. Thus it is expected that DNA-mediated 2D SNL structures open new avenues for designing miniaturized plasmonic nanodevices with various applications.

Abstract
The surface/interface matters as the size of materials enters the nanoscale. Control of surface/interface, therefore, plays an important role in creating novel nanostructures with unusual properties and in obtaining devices with high performance. Herein, we demonstrate unique interface regulation in fabricating nanostructures with strong plasmonic circular dichroism (PCD). With chiral cysteine (Cys) as surface-modulating molecules, starfruit-like Au nanoparticles (NPs) with high PCD responses are obtained via Au overgrowth on Au nanorods (AuNRs). Pre-incubation of the AuNRs with Cys is vital in achieving strong and reproducible PCD responses. Instead of contributing to PCD signals, the pre-adsorbed Cys molecules are found to play a major role in manipulating the Au growth mode and thus the formation of hotspots within the shell. Strong PCD signal mainly comes from the entrapped Cys molecules within the hotspots and is enhanced via local field effect. The distinct roles of the same ligands at different surfaces/interfaces are elucidated. Furthermore, our findings contribute to the strategy of utilizing interface modulation to fabricate complex nanostructures with novel properties.

Abstract
Fabrication of chiroptical materials with broadband response in the visible light region is vital to fully realize their potential applications. One way to achieve broadband chiroptical activity is to fabricate chiral nanostructures from materials that exhibit broadband absorption in the visible light region. However, the compounds used for chiroptical materials have predominantly been limited to materials with narrowband spectral response. Here, we synthesize Ag2S-based nanohelices derived from helical coordination polymers. The right- and left-handed coordination helices used as precursors are prepared from l- and d-glutathione with Ag+ and a small amount of Cu2+. The pyrolysis of the coordination helices yields right- and left-handed helices of Cu0.12Ag1.94S/C, which exhibit chiroptical activity spanning the entire visible light region. Finite element method simulations substantiate that the broadband chiroptical activity is attributed to synergistic broadband light absorption and light scattering. Furthermore, another series of Cu0.10Ag1.90S/C nanohelices are synthesized by choosing the l- or d-Glu-Cys as starting materials. The pitch length of nanohelicies is controlled by changing the peptides, which alters their chiroptical properties. The pyrolysis of coordination helices enables one to fabricate helical Ag2S-based materials that enable broadband chiroptical activity but have not been explored owing to the lack of synthetic routes.

Abstract
Chirality is a fundamental property and vital to chemistry, biology, physics and materials science. The ability to use asymmetry to operate molecular-level machines or macroscopically functional devices, or to give novel properties to materials, may address key challenges at the heart of the physical sciences. However, how chirality at one length scale can be translated to asymmetry at a different scale is largely not well understood. In this Review, we discuss systems where chiral information is translated across length scales and through space. A variety of synthetic systems involve the transmission of chiral information between the molecular-, meso- and macroscales. We show how fundamental stereochemical principles may be used to design and understand nanoscale chiral phenomena and highlight important recent advances relevant to nanotechnology. The survey reveals that while the study of stereochemistry on the nanoscale is a rich and dynamic area, our understanding of how to control and harness it and dial-up specific properties is still in its infancy. The long-term goal of controlling nanoscale chirality promises to be an exciting journey, revealing insight into biological mechanisms and providing new technologies based on dynamic physical properties.

ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2017; 29. [PMID: 28295680 DOI: 10.1002/adma.201606503] [Citation(s) in RCA: 178] [Impact Index Per Article: 25.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2016] [Revised: 02/07/2017] [Indexed: 05/15/2023]
Abstract
Circularly polarized luminescent (CPL) materials are currently attracting great interest. While a chiral building is usually necessary in order to obtain CPL materials, here, this study proposes a general approach for fabricating 1D circularly polarized luminescent nanoassemblies from achiral aromatic molecules or aggregation-induced emissive compounds (AIEgens). It is found that a C3 symmetric chiral gelator can individually form hexagonal nanotube structures and encapsulate the guest molecules. When achiral AIEgens are encapsulated into the confined nanotubes via organogelation, the AIEgens will emit circularly polarized luminescence. Further, the direction of the CPL could be controlled by the supramolecular chirality of the nanotube. Remarkably, the approach is universal and various kinds of the AIEgens can be doped to show such property, providing a full-color-tunable circularly polarized luminescence.
