Proteins are nature's primary building blocks for the construction of sophisticated molecular
machines and dynamic materials, ranging from protein complexes such as photosystem II …

Covalent polymers connected by non-covalent interactions constitute a fascinating set of
materials known as supramolecular polymer networks (SPNs). A key feature of SPNs is that …

Cucurbit [n] uril supramolecular chemistry has developed rapidly since 2001 when different
cucurbit [n] uril homologues (Q [n]) were successfully separated in pure form. The …

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs)—an emerging class of hybrid porous materials built from
metal ions or clusters bridged by organic linkers—have attracted increasing attention in …

The product of the condensation reaction between glycoluril and formaldehyde was first
reported in a thesis by Eberhard Meyer in 1904 (1) and then published by Behrend and co …

Room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) is a photophysical phenomenon typically
associated with a long-lived emission that can be detected by the unaided eye. Several …

Purely organic room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials have aroused
