Rapid, Precise, and Robust Supramolecular Polymerization from Functional Oligomeric‐Charged Poly(3‐hexylthiophene) Amphiphiles
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Nature inspires the design of artificial systems with remarkable rapidity, precision, and functionality, yet achieving these attributes simultaneously remains a challenge. Living crystallization‐driven self‐assembly (CDSA) methods have enabled the formation of low‐dispersity block copolymer nanofibers with crystalline cores, but these processes typically involve moderate or slow growth kinetics to ensure well‐controlled and ordered epitaxial crystallization. Here, we report studies on the living CDSA of oligomeric‐charged poly(3‐hexylthiophene) amphiphiles, demonstrating an unprecedented combination of rapidity and precision. We show that self‐seeding can produce nanofibers with controllable lengths up to ∼700 nm within ∼15 min (including 5 min of disassembly and 10 min of re‐growth), while seeded growth can generate nanofibers up to > 2000 nm in length within ∼20–40 min, depending on the unimer‐to‐seed mass ratios. Notably, this robust supramolecular polymerization can be initiated from the surfaces of two‐dimensional nanosheets, resulting in hierarchical hairy structures grafted with dense, uniform micellar brushes.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
