Abstract
Electrospinning is one of the simple, versatile, and convenient techniques for producing nanofibers that have found numerous applications in the fields of biomedical engineering, surface materials, and catalysis. Despite the great achievements, the electrospinning compounds are still limited to the utilization of polymers with high molar mass which are regarded as an indispensable element for the production of nanofibers. It is found that electrospinning chemicals based on supramolecular systems can avoid the use of high molecular weight polymers, and it is emerging as a powerful route to generate fibers in the nano-scale size. The presence of strong intermolecular interactions that function as chain entanglements allows for the formation of nanofibers during the process of electrospinning. This article provides recent impressive developments concerning nanofiber preparation made by the combination of electrospinning and supramolecular chemistry, which enables easy access to tailor-made nanofibers. Electrospinning supramolecular systems consisting of phospholipids, surfactants, crown ether derivatives as well as cyclodextrins will be highlighted in this review. Moreover, we will pay particular attention to the functionalities of electrospun nanofibers obtained from supramolecular systems.

Abstract
Fluorescent organic-inorganic composite materials exhibiting "turn-on" response are often based on conjugated small molecules. Conjugated polymers, however, often exhibit a "turn-off" response in combination with metal ions. Here we present fluorescent turn-on behavior of a branched poly(ethylene imine)-poly(acrylic acid)-Ag+ ion complex in a thin film. The material is characterized by UV-vis, spectrofluorometry, XPS, and ICP-MS. The turn-on response is exhibited only with all three components present, implying that the optically active metal coordination complex contains amine and carboxylic acid groups. This behavior is observed in the solid state, meaning this material could be easily integrated into devices. We demonstrate sensing of formaldehyde vapor as well as halide containing solutions based on fluorescence quenching. This fluorescent material is simply made using the layer-by-layer technique and commercially available polymers.

Abstract
We have developed a light-emitting material based on nonconjugated block copolymers that contain polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) chains. The confinement of the PSS chains within nanosized domains appeared to be a powerful means of achieving enhanced fluorescence signals. High fluorescence quantum yield, with a maximum value of 37%, was obtained by adjusting the types of self-assembled morphologies of PSS-containing block copolymers; in contrast, the fluorescence quantum yield was merely 5% for the PSS homopolymer lacking organization. The wavelength of fluorescence emission was tunable by rational molecular design. In addition, significant self-quenching behavior was not noticed in diverse forms of this material such as solutions, thin films, and free-standing membranes. Notably, the light-emitting self-assembled block copolymer electrolytes exhibited high sensitivity toward Cu(2+) ions, with a detection limit of parts per billion levels, rapid response time of ≤1 min, and insignificant interference of other competitive metal ions.

Abstract
A new concept for rapid, label-free cysteine sensing method is proposed via possible naked eye-detection of red-to-blue emission color change. Intermolecular exciton migration in conjugated polyelectrolyte-based assay complex is adopted to enhance selectivity and sensitivity for cysteine sensing by formation and dissociation of polymer-Hg(2+)-thymine assay complex in the absence and presence of cysteine, respectively. The assay complex shows red emission due to cooperative aggregation of conjugated polyelectrolyte, thymine, and Hg(2+). Upon exposure to cysteine, the assay complex dissociates into individual molecules showing transparent, blue-emitting solution, because cysteine extracts Hg(2+) from the assay complex via more favorable binding between cysteine and Hg(2+).

Abstract
Two new brush polyoxyethylenes bearing thymine moieties at the bristle ends have been synthesized as model polymers in which the chemical loading of the thymine functional group into the polymer is maximized: poly(oxy(11-thyminoacetyloxyundecylthiomethyl)ethylene) (PECH(S)-T) and poly(oxy(11-thyminoacetyloxyundecylsulfonylmethyl)ethylene) (PECH(SO(2))-T). These brush polymers are thermally stable up to around 225 °C, and their glass transitions occur in the range 23-27 °C, but they have significantly different properties despite the similarity of their chemical structures. In particular, PECH(SO(2))-T films exhibit better performance in sensing mercury ions than PECH(S)-T films. These differences were found to originate in the differences between their morphological structures. The PECH(SO(2))-T film has a multi-bilayer structure without interdigitation, in which the layers stack along the out-of-plane of the film and provide a thymine-rich surface. In contrast, the PECH(S)-T film is amorphous with a relatively low population of thymine moieties at the surface. This study demonstrated that a thymine-rich surface is required for recyclable thymine-based polymers to provide highly improved sensitivity and selectivity as well as full reversibility in the sensing of mercury ions. A thymine-rich surface can be achieved with a brush polymer bearing thymine moieties that can self-assemble into a multi-bilayer structure. Because of the thymine-rich surface, the PECH(SO(2))-T thin films even in only 6 nm thickness demonstrate the detection of mercury ions in aqueous solutions with a detection limit of 10(-6) M.
