Fig. 11. Supermicelles and superlattices by stacking of A–B–A and B–A–B triblock comicelles (A = M(PFS-b-P2VP) and B = M(PFS-b-PDMS)). (A) TEM images of a 3D superlattice formed by A105 nm–B160 nm–A105 nm triblock comicelles. (B) TEM images of a cylindrical brush-like supermicelle formed by B340 nm–A35 nm–B340 nm triblock comicelles in iPrOH. (C) Confocal fluorescence microscopy images of a 3D superlattice formed by A/F300 nm–B570 nm–A/F300 nm triblock comicelles in iPrOH (F = hydrophobic fluorescent block copolymer). (D) Confocal fluorescence microscopy images of a 1D superlattice formed by A/F745 nm–B570 nm–A/F745 nm triblock comicelles in iPrOH. Reproduced with permission from ref. 107.
