Abstract
Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) is promising for applications in many fields. However, most systems involving CPL are within the visible range; near-infrared (NIR) CPL-active materials, especially those that exhibit high glum values and can be controlled spatially and temporally, are rare. Herein, dynamic NIR-CPL with a glum value of 2.5×10-2 was achieved through supramolecular coassembly and energy-transfer strategies. The chiral assemblies formed by the coassembly between adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and a pyrene derivative exhibited a red CPL signal (glum of 10-3). The further introduction of sulfo-cyanine5 resulted in a energy-transfer process, which not only led to the NIR CPL but also increased the glum value to 10-2. Temporal control of these chiral assemblies was realized by introducing alkaline phosphatase to fabricate a biomimetic enzyme-catalyzed network, allowing the dynamic NIR CPL signal to be turned on. Based on these enzyme-regulated temporally controllable dynamic CPL-active chiral assemblies, a multilevel information encryption system was further developed. This study provides a pioneering example for the construction of dynamic NIR CPL materials with the ability to perform temporal control via the supramolecular assembly strategy, which is expected to aid in the design of supramolecular complex systems that more closely resemble natural biological systems.

Abstract
Water incorporated with supramolecular building blocks in organic solvents can play a key role in the circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) inversion and amplification of supramolecular assemblies. Herein, we demonstrate that fine-tuning the water content regulated the assembly structure evolution and made the circular dichroism and CPL sign of the system undergo intriguing inversion, reinversion, and amplification processes based on a unique and interesting glutamide-cyanostilbene system, as supported by morphology, spectroscopic observations, and time-dependent density functional theory calculation.

Abstract
D2-symmetric (R)-binaphthyl-bridged pyrenophanes containing thioether bonds were synthesized. The pyrenophanes exhibited the temperature-induced sign inversion of circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) while maintaining the emission wavelength and reversibility. The Δglum value reached 0.02, and the FL quenching by heat was negligible. The sign inversion of CPL originates from the inversion of intramolecular excimer chirality associated with excitation dynamics. The two pyrenes form a kinetically trapped left-handed twist excimer at low temperatures, while they form a thermodynamically favored right-handed twist excimer at high temperatures. The thioether linkers can impart flexibility suitable for the inversion of chirality of the excimers.

Abstract
Responsive chiral systems have attracted considerable attention, given their potential for diverse applications in biology, optoelectronics, photonics, and related fields. Here we show the reversible chirality inversion of an AuAgx-cysteine (AuAgx-cys) coordination polymer (CP) by pH changes. The polymer can be obtained by mixing HAuCl4 and AgNO3 with L-cysteine (or D-cysteine) in appropriate proportions in H2O (or other surfactant solutions). Circular dichroism (CD) spectrum is used to record the strong optical activity of the AuAg0.06-L-cys enantiomer (denoted as L0.06), which can be switched to that of the corresponding D0.06 enantiomer by alkalization (final dispersion pH > 13) and can be switched back after neutralization (final dispersion pH <8). Multiple structural changes at different pH values (≈9.6, ≈13) are observed through UV-Vis and CD spectral measurements, as well as other controlled experiments. Exploration of the CP synthesis kinetics suggests that the covalent bond formation is rapid and then the conformation of the CP materials would continuously evolve. The reaction stoichiometry investigation shows that the formation of CP materials with chirality inversion behavior requires the balancing between different coordination and polymerization processes. This study provides insights into the potential of inorganic stereochemistry in developing promising functional materials.

Abstract
Pathway-dependent self-assembly, in which a single building block forms two or more types of self-assembled nanostructures, is an important topic due to its mimic to the complexity in biology and manipulation of diverse supramolecular materials. Here, we report a pathway-dependent self-assembly using chiral glutamide derivatives (L or D-PAG), which form chiral nanotwist and nanotube through a cooperative slow cooling and an isodesmic fast cooling process, respectively. Furthermore, pathway-dependent self-assembly can be harnessed to control over the supramolecular co-assembly of PAG with a luminophore β-DCS or a photopolymerizable PCDA. Fast cooling leads to the co-assembled PAG/β-DCS nanotube exhibiting green circularly polarized luminescence (CPL), while slow cooling to nanofiber with blue CPL. Additionally, fast cooling process promotes the photopolymerization of PCDA into a red chiral polymer, whereas slow cooling inhibits the polymerization. This work not only demonstrates the pathway-dependent control over structural characteristics but also highlights the diverse functions emerged from the different assemblies.

Abstract
Constructing full-color circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) materials with switchable handedness in the solid state is an appealing yet considerably challenging task, especially for supramolecular polymer films assembled from homochiral monomers. Herein, supramolecular polymers with full-color CPL and inverted handedness are realized through the coassembly of a homochiral cholesterol derivative (PVPCC), metal ions (Zn2+), and achiral fluorescent dyes. The obtained coassembled systems show anion-directed supramolecular chirality inversion by exchanging the anions of NO3-, ClO4-, BF4-, and Cl-. For instance, the negative CD and right-handed CPL are detected in the PVPCC/Zn(NO3)2 aggregates, which convert into positive CD and left-handed CPL after introducing Cl-, corresponding to the transformation from nanorods to nanofibers. Furthermore, the tunable CPL color and handedness inversion of the coassembly system of PVPCC/Zn(NO3)2 and achiral fluorescent dyes can be established by alternately changing the assembling temperature of 298 and 273 K. Importantly, the full-color CPL polymeric materials are then constructed by doping the PVPCC/Zn(NO3)2/dyes complexes into poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) film, which maintains the handedness inversion and shows the enhanced CPL performance. The work not only deepens the understanding of chirality inversion in supramolecular chemistry but also helps to construct full-color CPL materials with switchable handedness from homochiral building blocks in materials science.

Abstract
Organic chiral nanofilaments are part of an important class of nanoscale chiral materials that has recently been receiving significant attention largely due to their potential use in applications such as optics, photonics, metameterials, and potentially a range of medical as well as sensing applications. This review will focus on key examples of the formation of such nano- and micro-filaments based on carbon nanofibers, polymers, synthetic oligo- and polypeptides, self-assembled organic molecules, and one prominent class of liquid crystals. The most critical aspects discussed here are the underlying driving forces for chiral filament formation, potentially answering why specific sizes and shapes are formed, what molecular design strategies are working equally well or rather differently among these materials classes, and what uses and applications are driving research in this fascinating field of materials science.

Abstract
The construction of chiral superstructures through the self-assembly of non-chiral polymers usually relies on the interplay of multiple non-covalent bonds, which is significantly limited by the memory ability of induced chirality. Although the introduction of covalent crosslinking can undoubtedly enhance the stability of chiral superstructures, the concurrent strong constraining effect hinders the application of chirality-smart materials. To address this issue, we have made a first attempt at the reversible fixation of supramolecular chirality by introducing dynamic covalent crosslinking into the chiral self-assembly of side-chain polymers. After chiral induction, the reversible [2+2] cycloaddition reaction of the cinnamate group in the polymer chains can be further controlled by light to manipulate inter-chain crosslinking and decrosslinking. Based on this photo-programmable and dynamic chiral fixation strategy, a novel pattern-embedded storage mechanism of chiral polymeric materials was established for the first time.

Abstract
The construction of tunable morphological systems has important implications for understanding the mechanism of molecular self-assembly. In this study, a spiropyran derivative M1 is reported with light-responsive assembly morphology, which can be tuned from nanosphere to nanorod by ultraviolet light irradiation. The absorption spectra show that M1 molecules are transformed from closed-ring (SP) isomers into open-ring (MC) isomers and start to form H-aggregates with increasing irradiation time. Density functional theory calculations indicate that MC-MC isomers possess stronger binding energy than SP-SP isomers. The MC isomers may thus facilitate the dissociation of the SP-SP aggregates and promote the change of self-assembled morphology with the aid of stronger π-π stackings and dipole-dipole interactions. The research gives an effective method for modulating the morphology of assemblies, with great potential for applications in smart materials.

Abstract
Studies on self-assembling systems with a controllable morphology responding to light stimulation are significant for revealing the process and mechanism of assembly. Here, a molecule of spiropyran derivative (SP) possessing photoresponsive assembly morphology is constructed. SP self-assembles into irregular sheet-like structures whose morphology can be significantly transformed into regular nanospheres under continuous ultraviolet light stimulation. The UV-vis absorption spectra indicate that 56% of SP are isomerized from closed-ring form (SPC) to open-ring form (SPO) with color changes from colorless to magenta. Furthermore, theoretical calculations demonstrate that SPO-SPO aggregates possess stronger van der Waals forces than do SPC-SPC aggregates and tend to form stable intermediates combined with SPO isomers. Therefore, the isomerization of SP from SPC to SPO and the differences in intermolecular interactions are important factors in the morphological transition. Our study provides an efficient strategy to modulate the assembled morphology, which holds great promise to be applied in the field of smart materials.

Abstract
Enantiopure helicenes have been extensively investigated due to their outstanding chiroptical properties, while helicene racemates are considered as chiroptically silent. Here, we describe a facile method to produce circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) from helicene racemates via supramolecular association with DNA in aqueous solution. Racemic cationic helicene derivatives are immobilized in the grooves of commercially available double-stranded right-handed DNA, and the discrimination of left- and right-handed helicenes by chiral DNA is monitored by single molecule force spectroscopy. This subsequently leads to the generation of prominent CPL with dissymmetric factor |glum | of close to 0.01, which is approximate to enantiopure helicenes. The strategy developed in this work avoids the tedious and expensive chiral resolution process and provides a distinctive insight into the fabrication of CPL-emitting systems.

Abstract
Chiral supramolecular assemblies with helical structures (e. g., proteins with α-helix, DNA with double helix, collagen with triple-helix) as the central structure motifs in biological systems play a crucial role in various physiological activities of living organisms. Variations in chiral structure can cause many abnormal physiological activities. To gain insight into the construction, structural transition, and related physiological functions of these complex helix in natural systems, it is necessary to fabricate artificial supramolecular assemblies with controllable helix orientation as research platform. This review discusses recent advances in chiral supramolecular assembly, including the precise construction and regulation of assembled chiral nanostructures with tunable chirality. Chiral structure-dependent biological activities, including cell proliferation, cell differentiation, antibacterial activity and tissue regeneration, are also discussed. This review not only contributes to further understanding of the importance of chirality in the physiological environment, but also plays an important role in the development of chiral biomedical materials for the treatment of diseases (e. g., tissue engineering regeneration, stem cell transplantation therapy).

Abstract
Herein, thioether bonds in the peripheral groups of chiral dendrimer that could activate the transformation between J- and H-aggregation in π-systems and caused controllable chiral inversion are described. Furthermore, owing to the close-knit per-aggregation of dendrimers impeding the transfer of inherent molecular chirality, the inversed chirality could be memorized and transferred from oligomers to nano-helices during self-assembly.

Abstract
Photoresponsive supramolecular polymers are well-organized assemblies based on highly oriented and reversible noncovalent interactions containing photosensitive molecules as (co-)monomers. They have attracted increasing interest in smart materials and dynamic systems with precisely controllable functions, such as light-driven soft actuators, photoresponsive fluorescent anticounterfeiting and light-triggered electronic devices. The present review discusses light-activated molecules used in photoresponsive supramolecular polymers with their main photo-induced changes, e.g., geometry, dipole moment, and chirality. Based on these distinct changes, supramolecular polymers formed by light-activated molecules exhibit photoresponsive disassembly and reassembly. As a consequence, photo-induced supramolecular polymerization, "depolymerization," and regulation of the lengths and topologies are observed. Moreover, the light-controlled functions of supramolecular polymers, such as actuation, emission, and chirality transfer along length scales, are highlighted. Furthermore, a perspective on challenges and future opportunities is presented. Besides the challenge of moving from harmful UV light to visible/near IR light avoiding fatigue, and enabling biomedical applications, future opportunities include light-controlled supramolecular actuators with helical motion, light-modulated information transmission, optically recyclable materials, and multi-stimuli-responsive supramolecular systems.

Abstract
Multi-switchable supramolecular nano-objects that respond to irradiation of different wavelengths with changes in size and shape have been built from two different water-soluble molecular switches, joined by attachment to the same polyelectrolyte. Accordingly, two wavelength-specific reactions, namely the excited-state proton dissociation of a photoacid and the cis-trans isomerization of an azo dye, are combined in one supramolecular nano-object that is stable in aqueous solution. The concept has potential in the fields of sensors, molecular motors, and transport.

Abstract
Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) has been widely demonstrated that the circular polarization in excited state can be significantly amplified through the triplet-triplet annihilation-based upconversion (TTA-UC) luminescence process in various chiral nano-assemblies. However, constructing such an upconverted circularly polarized luminescence (UC-CPL) system in the aqueous phase remains a challenge. In this work, a kind of amphiphilic chiral cationic gemini surfactant is utilized to construct chiral spherical micelle in the aqueous phase, whose internal chiral cavity can provide a hydrophobic and deoxygenated environment for air-sensitive TTA-UC system. In addition, due to the co-assembly process between the emitters and chiral micelles, achiral emitters of upconversion pairs exhibit induced chiroptical properties. More importantly, the luminescence dissymmetry factor (glum ) can be amplified by one order of magnitude through TTA-UC process. This work provides an effective and useful strategy for realizing UC-CPL in aqueous phase.

Abstract
Being able to precisely manipulate both the morphology and chiroptical signals of supramolecular assemblies will help to better understand the natural biological self-assembly mechanism. Two simple l/d-phenylalanine-based derivatives (L/DPFM) have been designed, and their solvent-dependent morphology evolutions are illustrated. It was found that, as the content of H2 O in aqueous ethanol solutions was increased, LPFM self-assembles first into right-handed nanofibers, then flat fibrous structures, and finally inversed left-handed nanofibers. Assemblies in ethanol and H2 O exhibit opposite conformations and circular dichroism (CD) signals even though they are constructed from the same molecules. Thus, the morphology-dependent cell adhesion and proliferation behaviors are further characterized. Left-handed nanofibers are found to be more favorable for cell adhesion than right-handed nanostructures. Quantitative AFM analysis showed that the L929 cell adhesion force on left-handed LPFM fibers is much higher than that on structures with inversed handedness. Moreover, the value of cell Young's modulus is lower for left-handed nanofibrous films, which indicates better flexibility. The difference in cell-substrate interactions might lead to different effects on cell behavior.

Abstract
Despite significant progress on the design and synthesis of covalent organic frameworks (COFs), precise control over microstructures of such materials remains challenging. Herein, two chiral COFs with well-defined one-handed double-helical nanofibrous morphologies were constructed via an unprecedented template-free method, capitalizing on the diastereoselective formation of aminal linkages. Detailed time-dependent experiments reveal the spontaneous transformation of initial rod-like aggregates into the double-helical microstructures. We have further demonstrated that the helical chirality and circular dichroism signal can be facilely inversed by simply adjusting the amount of acetic acid during synthesis. Moreover, by transferring chirality to achiral fluorescent molecular adsorbents, the helical COF nanostructures can effectively induce circularly polarized luminescence with the highest luminescent asymmetric factor (glum ) up to ≈0.01.

Abstract
For decades, chiral nanomaterials have been extensively studied because of their extraordinary properties. Chiral nanostructures have attracted a lot of interest because of their potential applications including biosensing, asymmetric catalysis, optical devices, and negative index materials. Circularly polarized light (CPL) is the most attractive source for chirality owing to its high availability, and now it has been used as a chiral source for the preparation of chiral matter. In this review, the recent progress in the field of CPL-enabled chiral nanomaterials is summarized.

Abstract
The evolution of hierarchical chirality at macromolecular and supramolecular levels in biological systems is ubiquitous; however, achieving precise control over transitions between them in polymer systems is still challenging. Here, we reported multiple chiroptical transitions and inversion phenomena in side-chain azobenzene (Azo) polymers, PAzo-l/d-m (m = 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, where m is the total number of atoms from the chiral stereocenter to the Azo unit), with different distances from the chiral stereocenter to the Azo unit. In the case of m = 3, an unexpected macromolecular-to-supramolecular chirality transition and inversion occurred in situ when the Azo-polymer underwent from a macromolecular-dissolved state to a supramolecular-aggregated state. To our surprise, an exciton-coupling induced multiple chiroptical inversion was observed upon the heating-assisted reassembly treatment, which was demonstrated to be driven by H- to J-aggregation transition. Furthermore, the odd-even effect was first established to regulate the supramolecular helical orientations (left- or right-handedness) in side-chain Azo-polymer assemblies.

Abstract
Construction of controllable chiroptical supramolecular luminescence systems is of great significance for developing intelligent chiral luminescence materials with precise and effective regulation and understanding chirality-switching phenomena in biological systems, which has attracted extensive attention. Because chiral metal nanoclusters (NCs) can provide facilities for the study of nanoscale chiral effects, in this study, we select chiral glutathione-stabilized copper NCs (G-SH-Cu NCs) to construct a supramolecular luminescent hydrogel with achiral branched polyethyleneimine (PEI) and polyoxometalates [Na9(EuW10O36)·32H2O, denoted as EuW10]. Thus, a chiral property precise controlled system was constructed by self-assembly. Interestingly, the addition of PEI to G-SH-Cu NC solution induced the formation of luminescent hydrogels with chiral inversion, while further addition of EuW10 not only enhanced the luminescence of the hydrogel but also recovered the chiroptical properties. The chiral inversion behavior is possibly ascribed to the hydrogen bond interaction/electrostatic interaction between G-SH-Cu NCs and PEI in the chiral inversion process, while the competition of hydrogen bonding interaction (between G-SH-Cu NCs and PEI) and electrostatic interaction (between PEI and EuW10) was accountable for the chiral recovery process. Manipulation of chirality inversion in the metal NC-containing coassemblies is rare, while this work establishes a feasible strategy to modulate the chiral inversion behavior of Cu NCs, which not only produces new physicochemical properties of metal NCs through synergistic behavior but also offers a feasible way to realize the potential application of chiroptical materials.

Abstract
Chiral transition metal oxides (TMOs) are widely used in various optoelectronic devices. However, the currently poor understanding of how the optical activities of TMOs can be regulated considerably hinders their applications. We have synthesized a series of chiral TMO nanoparticles (NPs), i.e., MoOx (x = 2, 2.4 and 2.5) and Co3O4. Compared with TMO NPs with L-/D-cysteine molecules as the capping ligand, L-/D-histidine-capped TMO NPs possess larger anisotropic factors (gabs), which are as high as ∼0.01 and ∼0.02 for L-/D-histidine-capped MoO2.5 and Co3O4 NPs, respectively. A nondegenerate coupled oscillator (NDCO) theoretical calculation confirms that L-/D-histidine molecules can generate a smaller electric dipole moment and thus induce higher optical activity than L-/D-cysteine molecules. Impressively, the chiral NPs exhibit broadband second harmonic generation. This work indicates that chiral TMO NPs have potential for application in nonlinear optical devices.

Abstract
Achieving electrically and/or electrochemically controlled circularly polarized photoluminescence (CPL) is challenging due to the non-electroactive characteristics of most chiral materials and the non-electrosensitive feature of materials' chiroptical signals. Here we found that the CPL of self-assembled conducting polyaniline (PANI) helical microfibers could be reversibly switched by applying an alternating electrical bias. The conducting polymer is not the fluorophore but can transfer its chirality to the coassembled aggregation-induced emission (AIE) fluorescent molecules. The electrochemically switchable CPL is derived from the reversible transformation of the chirality of the polyaniline microfibers, which is probably due to the change in the molecular interchain distance upon doping/dedoping. Subsequently, we have demonstrated double-layer information encryption based on the electrochemically reversible CPL and conductance.

Abstract
Flexible circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) switching devices have been long-awaited due to their promising potential application in wearable optoelectronic devices. However, on account of the few materials and complicated design of manufacturing systems, how to fabricate a flexible electric-field-driven CPL-switching device is still a serious challenge. Herein, a flexible device with multiple optical switching properties (CPL, circular dichroism (CD), fluorescence, color) is designed and prepared efficiently based on proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) mechanism by optimizing the chiral structure of switching molecule. More importantly, this device can maintain the switching performance even after 300 bending-unbending cycles. It has a remarkable comprehensive performance containing bistable property, low open voltage, and good cycling stability. Then, prototype devices with designed patterns have been fabricated, which opens a new application pattern of CPL-switching materials.

Abstract
Multichannel regulable circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) is fascinating because of its fundamental and application interest. There are few reports on helical sense (P-/M-helix) modulation and chiral signal amplification of polyacetylenes with the assistance of achiral polymers and further applications in precisely and conveniently regulating CPL handedness and magnitude. Herein, a helical poly(phenylacetylene)-based CPL-active system was constructed, in which CPL inversion occurred by adding achiral PMMA into a helical poly(phenylacetylene)-CHCl3 solution. Significantly, there is almost 10 times magnification of luminescence dissymmetry factor values (|glum|) during this process. The above phenomena could be ascribed to the PMMA-assisted polyene backbone elongation and the formation of a more ordered helical structure for the poly(phenylacetylene)s. More interestingly, the CPL signal can be facilely inverted and switched by simply changing the thickness of the PPhAD/PMMA layer. The temperature-driven dynamic CPL handedness inversion and magnitude modulation can also be achieved. Based on the multiple regulations for CPL, logic operations were developed, and the practical application is further facilitated by designing various CPL patterns. This study establishes effective and convenient strategies to switch the handedness, magnitude, and wavelength of CPL, which may generate a breakthrough in the manufacturing of CPL-active smart materials and devices with promising application potential.

Abstract
A novel gelator (1) based on a bis-pyridine derivative was designed and synthesized, which could form stable gels in methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, ethyl acetate, DMF/H2O (4/1, v/v) and DMSO/H2O (4/1, v/v). The self-assembly process of gelator 1 was studied by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), UV–vis absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence emission spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray powder diffraction and a water contact angle experiment. Gelator 1 exhibited obvious AIE behavior. On the base of its AIE, the gel of 1 could detect Hg2+, which resulted in fluorescence quenching and a gel–sol transition. 1H NMR titration experiments with Hg2+ revealed that the metal coordination interaction induced the fluorescence quenching and the breakdown of the noncovalent interaction in the gel system. This research provides a new molecular mode for designing a functional self-assembly gel system.

Abstract
Cholesteric liquid crystals (CLCs) are chiral supramolecular systems that self-assemble into a highly regular helical arrangement in a liquid crystal (LC) medium. Such an arrangement is highly beneficial for the chiral enlargement effect on circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) signals. Dichroic dyes with rod-like molecular structures can exhibit fluorescence anisotropy along both the long and short molecular axes owing to their transition dipole moment (TDM) vectors. In this work, a pair of donor-accepter (D-A) achiral dichroic dyes is prepared, namely, 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene derivative (P1, whose TDM vector is parallel to the long axis of the molecule, i.e., F|| > F⊥ ) and anthraquinone derivative (N1, whose TDM vector is perpendicular to the long axis of the molecule, i.e., F|| < F⊥ ). CLCs can be fabricated by doping P1 or N1 together with chiral 1,1'-binaphthyl-derived inducers into SLC1717 medium. Dynamic CPL with tunable handedness and intensity is achieved by changing the N1:P1 mass ratio, and the luminescence dissymmetry factor (gem ) value reaches |0.71|. This work describes the first observation of dynamic CPL with tunable handedness and intensity enabled by TDM regulation of achiral dichroic dyes in a CLC medium.

Abstract
Natural systems transfer chiral information across multiple length scales through dynamic supramolecular interaction to accomplish various functions. Inspired by nature, many exquisite artificial supramolecular systems have been developed, in which controlling the supramolecular chirality holds the key to completing specific tasks. However, to achieve precise and non-invasive control and modulation of chirality in these systems remains challenging. As a non-invasive stimulus, light can be used to remotely control the chirality with high spatiotemporal precision. In contrast to common molecular switches, a synthetic molecular motor can act as a multistate chiroptical switch with unidirectional rotation, offering major potential to regulate more complex functions. Here, we present a light-driven molecular motor-based supramolecular polymer, in which the intrinsic chirality is transferred to the nanofibers, and the rotation of molecular motors governs the chirality and morphology of the supramolecular polymer. The resulting supramolecular polymer also exhibits light-controlled multistate aggregation-induced emission. These findings present a photochemically tunable multistate dynamic supramolecular system in water and pave the way for developing molecular motor-driven chiroptical materials.

Abstract
As the medium for self-assembly processes, solvents strongly influence the supramolecular assemblies via specific solute-solvent interactions, which may result in effective modulation of properties, self-assembled nanostructures, and functions through varying the solvent. Here, two kinds of pyridine-cyanostilbene functionalized chiral amphiphiles (l/d-PyPhG and l-PyG) were designed, and their self-assembly behaviors in different solvents were investigated. It was found that both amphiphiles formed gels in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and self-assembled into right-handed nanotwists, while they formed suspensions in ethanol consisting of left-handed nanotubes. Although the molecular chirality in the compounds remained unchanged in the two solvents, the nanoassemblies showed opposite handedness at the nanoscale together with opposite circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) signals. Furthermore, when the amphiphiles were co-assembled with an achiral dye, it was found that efficient energy transfer took place in the systems composed of nanotubes rather than those composed of nanotwists. Therefore, by assembling molecules with the same molecular chirality in different solvents, a selective formation of helical nanotubes or nanotwists and the regulation of handedness as well as energy transfer efficiency were achieved.

Abstract
Intelligent control over the handedness of circular dichroism (CD) is of special significance in self-organized biological and artificial systems. Herein, we report a chiral organic molecule (R1) containing a disulfide unit self-assembles into M-type helical fibers gels, which undergoes chirality inversion by incorporating gold nanospheres due to the formation of Au-S bonds between R1 and gold nanospheres. Upon heating at 80oC, the aggregation of gold nanospheres results in a disappearance of the Au-S bond, allowing the reversible switching back to M-type helical fibers. The original chirality of M-type fibers could also be retained by adding anisotropic gold nanorods. A series of characterization methods, involving CD, Raman, Infrared spectroscopy, electric microscopy, and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements were used to investigate the mechanism of chiral evolutions. Our results provide a facile way of fabricating hysteresis nanoarchitectonics to achieve dynamic supramolecular chirality using inorganic metallic nanoparticles.

Abstract
While controlling the chirality and modulating the helicity is a challenging task, it attracts great research interest for gaining a better understanding of the origin of chirality in nature. Herein, structurally similar azobenzene (Azo) vinyl monomers were designed in which the alkyl chains comprised the chiral stereocenter with different achiral tail lengths. Combining the synchronous polymerization, supramolecular stacking and self-assembly, the multiple chiroptical inversion of the Azo-polymer supramolecular assemblies can be modulated by the tail length and DP of Azo blocks during in situ polymerization. The DP-, UV light-, temperature-, aging time-dependent chiroptical properties and liquid-crystalline (LC) characterization indicated that the amorphous-to-LC phase transition and biphasic LC interconversion allow the transcription of intra-chain π-π stacking, inter-chain H- and J-aggregation, thereby controlling the dynamic multiple reversal of supramolecular chirality.

Abstract
Flexible construction of permanently stored supramolecular chirality with stimulus-responsiveness remains a big challenge. Herein, we describe an efficient method to realize the transfer and storage of chirality in intrinsically achiral films of a side-chain polymeric liquid crystal system by combining chiral doping and cross-linking strategy. Even the helical structure was destroyed by UV light irradiation, the memorized chiral information in the covalent network enabled complete self-recovery of the original chiral superstructure. These results allowed the building of a novel chiroptical switch without any additional chiral source in multiple types of liquid crystal polymers, which may be one of the competitive candidates for use in stimulus-responsive chiro-optical devices.
