Regulating morphologies and near-infrared photothermal conversion of perylene bisimide via sequence-dependent peptide self-assembly

Abstract

The assembly behavior of perylene bisimide (PBI) can be precisely organised by the conjugation of sequence-dependent di-peptides in aqueous media. The assembled nanostructures and consequent properties of PBI aggregates can be tuned by the use of different peptide sequences with improved yield of radical anions and enhanced photothermal conversion efficiency.
