A versatile support and natural stencil—remunerative assets from nature: A composite biomembrane from Allium cepa is introduced as a natural template to seed nanosized crystals and to deposit a thin film of an iron(II)-based thermochromic molecular sensor. The illustration depicts growth of nanocrystals on the biomembrane and subsequent pattern transfer onto a Si wafer. The original coated membrane displays the functional properties of spin crossover.
