AbstractSelf-assembled materials composed of β-sheet forming peptides hold promise as therapeutics and novel biomaterials. This article focuses on the design and engineering of amphiphilic peptide sequences, especially β-hairpins. Peptides can be designed to intramolecularly fold and then self-assemble on cue, affording hydrogels rich in β-sheet structure. Hydrogels having distinct material properties can be designed at the molecular level by modulating either the peptide's sequence or the environmental stimulus used to trigger folding and assembly, leading to gelation.

AbstractNanoscale self-assembly, as a technique to transform two-dimensional (2D) planar patterns into three-dimensional (3D) nanoscale architectures, has achieved tremendous success in the past decade. However, an assembly process at nanoscale is easily affected by small unavoidable variations in sample conditions and reaction environment, resulting in a low yield. Recently, in-situ monitored self-assembly based on ion and electron irradiation has stood out as a promising candidate to overcome this limitation. The usage of ion and electron beam allows stress generation and real-time observation simultaneously, which significantly enhances the controllability of self-assembly. This enables the realization of various complex 3D nanostructures with a high yield. The additional dimension of the self-assembled 3D nanostructures opens the possibility to explore novel properties that cannot be demonstrated in 2D planar patterns. Here, we present a rapid review on the recent achievements and challenges in nanoscale self-assembly using electron and ion beam techniques, followed by a discussion of the novel optical properties achieved in the self-assembled 3D nanostructures.
