TL;DR: Doping two-dimensional naphthalene-based lead halide perovskites with tetrachloro-1,2-benzoquinone has been shown to introduce donor–acceptor interactions within the organic network, without disrupting the inorganic sublattice.

TL;DR: The research reported here introduces an innovative design, termed LASO-lock-arm supramolecular ordering-in the form of a modular approach for the development of responsive organic cocrystals, which relies on the use of aromatic electronic donor and acceptor building blocks, carrying complementary rigid and flexible arms, capable of forming hydrogen bonds to amplify the cocrystallization processes.

TL;DR: A thermally driven crystalline order transition in the landscape of supramolecular nanostructures formed by charged chromophore amphiphiles in salt-containing aqueous solutions is reported on.

TL;DR: In this article, structural and spectroscopic analysis in a number of perovskite-polymer hybrid materials and compare their stability was performed, showing that polymers tend to suppress the formation of a hydrate crystal phase that accelerates the degradation reaction.

TL;DR: An extended viologen-based cyclophane—ExBox2(4+)—has been employed as a molecular receptor which, not only binds C60 one-on-one, but also results in the columnar self-assembly of the 1:1 inclusion complexes under ambient conditions.
