AbstractConducting polymers are interesting materials due to their wide range of applications in electronics, sensing, photonics and display applications. The present paper delineates the synthesis and characterization of the three functionalized poly (p-phenylene)s (PPP) (A-C) and solution properties of the polymers. The self-assembly of the polymers were investigated on various substrates and the optical/morphological properties of thin films of these polymers were also studied. The spontaneous self assembly of the modified PPP's lead to the formation of thin films on both hydrophilic and modified surfaces.

The self-assembly in thin films of polyphosphazene block copolymers combining a rigid ([N = P(O2C12H8)], O2C12H8= 2,2′-dioxy-1,1′-biphenyl) and a flexible ([N = PMePh]) blocks, led to the spontaneous formation of porous films through a vesicle-to-pore morphological evolutions pathway.

The self-assembly of a ruthenium-containing polyferrocenylsilane in bulk and thin films yielded spherical or cylindrical domains in a PS matrix; pyrolysis provided a route to bimetallic Fe/Ru NPs for potential catalytic applications.

The self-assembly of colloidal inorganic nanocrystals (NCs) offers tremendous potential for the design of solution-processed multi-functional inorganic thin-films or nanostructures. To date, the self-assembly of various inorganic NCs, such as plasmonic metal, metal oxide, quantum dots, magnetics, and dielectrics, are reported to form single, binary, and even ternary superlattices with long-range orientational and positional order over a large area. In addition, the controlled coupling between NC building blocks in the highly ordered superlattices gives rise to novel collective properties, providing unique optical, magnetic, electronic, and catalytic properties. In this review, we introduce the self-assembly of inorganic NCs and the experimental process to form single and multicomponent superlattices, and we also describe the fabrication of multiscale NC superlattices with anisotropic NC building blocks, thin-film patterning, and the supracrystal formation of superlattice structures.
