Abstract

We demonstrate the fabrication of fluorescent supracolloidal chains functionalized with quantum dots, which were polymerized from patched micelles of diblock copolymers by adjusting the polarity of the solvent. Supracolloidal random and block chains with green- and red-emitting quantum dots were also synthesized.
