This review highlights recent advances in the generation of pi-Conjugated-polymer-based nanofibers (CPNFs) using living crystallization-driven self-assembly (CDSA) techniques. The influence of pi-conjugated-polymer-containing block copolymers on CDSA behaviors and potential applications of CPNFs are discussed to provide a comprehensive overview of this technology.
pi-Conjugated-polymer-based nanofibers (CPNFs) of controlled length, composition and morphology are promising for a broad range of emerging applications in optoelectronics, biomedicine and catalysis, owing to the morphological merits of fiber-like nanostructures and structural attributes of pi-conjugated polymers. Living crystallization-driven self-assembly (CDSA) of pi-conjugated-polymer-containing block copolymers (BCPs) has emerged as an efficient strategy to prepare CPNFs with precise dimensional and structural controllability by taking advantage of the crystallinity of pi-conjugated polymers. In this review, recent advances in the generation of CPNFs have been highlighted. The influence of the structure of pi-conjugated-polymer-containing BCPs and experimental conditions on the CDSA behaviors, especially seeded growth and self-seeding processes of living CDSA, has been discussed in detail, aiming to provide an in-depth overview of living CDSA of pi-conjugated-polymer-containing BCPs. In addition, the properties of CPNFs as well as their potential applications have been illustrated. Finally, we put forward the current challenges and research directions in the field of CPNFs.
