A dual thermal and photo-switchable shrinking–swelling supramolecular peptide dendron gel

Abstract

A supramolecular dendron gel was fabricated through the co-assembly of an L-glutamic acid terminated amphiphilic dendron and a positively charged azobenzene derivative, which showed a dual thermal and photo-switched reversible volume phase transition or shrinking/swelling.
