Controlling the energy landscape of stimuli-responsive supramolecular materials remains a major challenge in the field of self-assembly. In this project, we aim at unravelling the effect of various triggers on supramolecular polymerization by detailed mechanistic insights. By interfacing supramolecular polymerization under controlled experimental conditions and a given stimulus, we will switch from responsive to adaptive behaviour on demand. The sequential application of multiple stimuli at defined intervals is expected to produce unprecedented functional supramolecular materials with oscillating, adaptive, sensing and memory behaviour.
