Abstract
Self-assembly of block copolymers (BCP) into uniform 3D structures in solution is an extremely rare phenomenon. Furthermore, the investigation of general prerequisites for fabricating a specific uniform 3D structure remains unknown and challenging. Here, through a simple one-pot direct self-assembly (heating and cooling) protocol, we show that uniform spherulite-like structures and their precursors can be prepared with various poly(ferrocenyldimethylsilane) (PFS) BCPs in a variety of polar and non-polar solvents. These structures all evolve from elongated lamellae into hedrites, sheaf-like micelles, and finally spherulites as the annealing temperature and supersaturation degree are increased. The key feature leading to this growth trajectory is the formation of secondary crystals by self-nucleation on the surface of early-elongated lamellae. We identified general prerequisites for fabricating PFS BCP spherulites in solution. These include corona/PFS core block ratios in the range of 1-5.5 that favor the formation of 2D structures as well as the development of secondary crystals on the basal faces of platelets at early stages of the self-assembly. The one-pot direct self-assembly provides a general protocol to form uniform spherulites and their precursors consisting of PFS BCPs that match these prerequisites. In addition, we show that manipulation of various steps in the direct self-assembly protocol can regulate the size and shape of the structures formed. These general concepts show promise for the fabrication and optimization of spherulites and their precursors from semicrystalline BCPs with interesting optical, electronic, or biomedical properties using the one-pot direct self-assembly protocol.

Abstract
Low dispersity 2D platelet micelles with controllable surface patterns were prepared by seeded-growth/living crystallization-driven self-assembly (CDSA) of block copolymer/homopolymer (BCP/HP) blends of poly(ferrocenyldimethylsilane)-b-poly(2-vinyl pyridine) (PFS-b-P2VP) and PFS. The precise morphology was found to be dependent on the proportion of the P2VP corona block, which can be efficiently controlled by changing the molar concentration ratio of PFS-b-P2VP/PFS, (cB/cH)t, as well as their relative rates of crystallization, (GB/GH)t. In the case where their molar concentration ratio was comparable to their crystallization rate ratio, platelets with a uniform distribution of P2VP coronal chains were formed. In other cases, as the concentration ratio increased (or decreased) during the living CDSA process, hierarchical structures were formed, including chain-like assemblies consisting of end-to-end linked rectangular platelets and fusiform (tapered) micelles. (GB/GH)t was adjusted by tuning the degree of polymerization of the crystallizable PFS core-forming block and the BCP block ratio and by varying the terminus of the HP or changing the solvent used. Furthermore, the open edge of the platelets remained active for further growth, which permitted control of the morphology and dimensions of the platelets. Interestingly, in cases where the molar concentration ratio was lower than the crystallization rate ratio, growth rings were observed after two or more living CDSA steps. This study on the formation of platelet micelles by living CDSA of BCP/HP blends under kinetic control offers a considerable scope for the design of 2D polymer nanomaterials with controlled shape and surface patterns.

Abstract
π-Conjugated-polymer-based nanofibers (CPNFs) of controlled length, composition and morphology are promising for a broad range of emerging applications in optoelectronics, biomedicine and catalysis, owing to the morphological merits of fiber-like nanostructures and structural attributes of π-conjugated polymers. Living crystallization-driven self-assembly (CDSA) of π-conjugated-polymer-containing block copolymers (BCPs) has emerged as an efficient strategy to prepare CPNFs with precise dimensional and structural controllability by taking advantage of the crystallinity of π-conjugated polymers. In this review, recent advances in the generation of CPNFs have been highlighted. The influence of the structure of π-conjugated-polymer-containing BCPs and experimental conditions on the CDSA behaviors, especially seeded growth and self-seeding processes of living CDSA, has been discussed in detail, aiming to provide an in-depth overview of living CDSA of π-conjugated-polymer-containing BCPs. In addition, the properties of CPNFs as well as their potential applications have been illustrated. Finally, we put forward the current challenges and research directions in the field of CPNFs.

Abstract
We describe a polyferrocenyldimethylsilane (PFS) block copolymer (BCP), PFS27-b-P(TDMA65-ran-OEGMA69) (the subscripts refer to the mean degrees of polymerization), in which the corona-forming block is a random brush copolymer of hydrophobic tetradecyl methacrylate (TDMA) and hydrophilic oligo(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (OEGMA). Thus, the corona is amphiphilic. This BCP generates a remarkable series of different structures when subjected to crystallization-driven self-assembly (CDSA) in solvents of different polarity. Long ribbon-like micelles formed in isopropanol, and their lengths could be controlled using both self-seeding and seeded growth protocols. In hexanol, the BCP formed more complex structures. These objects consisted of oval platelets connected to long fiber-like micelles that were uniform in width but polydisperse in length. In octane, relatively uniform rectangular platelets formed. Finally, a distinct morphology formed in a mixture of octane/hexanol, namely uniform oval structures, whose height corresponded to the fully extended PFS block. Both long and short axes of these ovals increased with the initial annealing temperature and with the BCP concentration. The self-seeding protocol also afforded uniform two-dimensional structures. Seeded growth experiments, in which a solution of the BCP in THF was added to a colloidal solution of the oval micelles led to a linear increase in area while maintaining the aspect ratio of the ovals. These experiments demonstrate the powerful effect of the amphiphilic corona chains on the CDSA of a core crystalline BCP in solvents of different hydrophilicity.
