Abstract

The enhanced supramolecular self-assembly behaviors of photo-caged platinum(II) complexes have been triggered by applying light as the external stimulus. Distinct morphological transformation of the nanoaggregates has been observed in the photo-caged complexes before and after UV irradiation.
