Size-Controlled Fabrication of Supramolecular Vesicles for the Construction of Conjugated Polymer Sensors with Enhanced Optical Properties

Polymerizable supramolecular monomer vesicles are readily fabricated by employing a hydrodynamic focusing method on a microfluidic chip. The polymerized diacetylenene nanovesicles, generated using the microfluidic method, display an improved fluorescence property compared to those prepared by employing a conventional bulk method. The flexibility of the vesicle size control by manipulating the flow conditions is another significant feature of the new microfluidic approach.
