Abstract
Although metal-containing polymers have been widely studied as a novel class of functional soft materials, the microphase separation between polymeric segments and metal-ligand complexes has been less addressed, which is critical to control their structures and functions. To do this, short-chain polystyrenes (PSs) have been end-functionalized with nanosized square-planar platinum(II) complexes. The platinum(II)-comprising polymers were found to show significant luminescence enhancement in chloroform/methanol solvent mixtures upon increasing the methanol composition. By modulating both the PS length and solvent quality, various self-assembled morphologies formed controllably in the mixed solvents and typical examples include nanofibers, nanoellipsoids, and nanospheres. More interestingly, the inside structures of these polymer particles are shown to be lamellar with sub-10 nm spacings, wherein the PS blocks are alternatively aligned with the platinum(II) units. Such a luminescence enhancement and hierarchical nanostructured particles originate from a subtle combination of directional Pt(II)⋯Pt(II) and/or π-π stacking interactions between the platinum(II) units and the solvophobic effect between the PS blocks. This work suggests that by microphase separating polymer chains with nanosized metal-ligand complexes, metal-containing polymers can self-assemble to form sub-10 nm scale nanostructures showcasing desired properties and functions.

Abstract
Photoacoustic signal detection has been used to build a new strategy to determine the mesoscale self-assembly of metal nanoparticles in terms of size distribution and aggregate packing density (metal nanoparticle filling factor). A synergistic approach integrating photoacoustic signal and theoretical studies, validated by conventional light scattering and electron microscopy techniques, allows us to obtain a well-defined morphological interpretation of nanoparticle-based super-aggregates. By pumping light in a complex system, the acousto-thermal effect was listened to, providing information on the aggregation phenomena. Super-aggregates of covalently interconnected silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) functionalized with an organometallic dithiol are identified in solution, as a proof of concept for the versatility of the photoacoustic approach. According to our results, tiny AgNPs (size less than 10 nm) assembled into a 3D-network of super-aggregates (SA-AgNPs) with sizes in the range 100-200 nm and a filling factor in the range of 30-50%. Low-cost, rapid, and easy photoacoustic measurement in the low frequency range (less than 100 Hz) was revealed to be an innovative method to characterize the fundamental structure/property correlation of metal nanoparticle super-aggregates. This morpho-optical approach, which uses the absorption and scattering properties of nanoparticles in the liquid phase, opens new perspectives for advanced biomedical and structural applications.
