Synthesis strategies for soft-matter quasicrystals
摘要
Abstract
Soft matter quasicrystals are realized through molecular self-assembly,which confers unique advantages in design and regulation.This approach not only significantly reduces synthesis complexity but also offers novel pathways for achieving multiscale order and functionalized materials.Currently,quasicrystalline phases have been observed in soft matter systems such as dendrimers,ABC tridentate star polymers,block copolymers,surfactants,and binary colloidal nanoparticles,predominantly forming dodecagonal axisymmetric quasicrystals.Research on soft matter quasicrystals intersects with disciplines including supramolecular chemistry,organic chemistry,colloid chemistry,polymer chemistry,and soft matter physics.The formation of soft matter quasicrystals relies on sophisticated molecular design and the regulation of hierarchical self-assembly structures.As novel self-assembled systems,their unique non-periodic ordered structures offer fresh perspectives for functional material design.Despite a few examples of quasicrystals discovered in block copolymers and dendritic macromolecules,current research remains largely focused on structural analysis of serendipitously obtained phases.The rational design and synthesis of quasicrystals from first principles remains a major challenge in the field.Building on insights from metallic quasicrystals,there is an urgent need to establish new research paradigms for soft matter quasicrystals.Such paradigms could significantly accelerate the rational design and synthesis of thermodynamically stable or long-lived metastable soft quasicrystalline structures,thus providing new material platforms for applications in diverse fields.This paper systematically reviews the fundamental concepts and research background of quasicrystals.Building upon a summary of the conditions for soft matter quasicrystal formation and typical case studies,it focuses on exploring construction strategies for soft matter quasicrystals.Two approaches for designing soft matter quasicrystals are proposed:an empirical method based on approximating quasicrystal analogues and a theoretical approach based on computational prediction through reverse synthesis.These strategies provide a reference for the rational design and functional applications of soft quasicrystals.关键词
