Abstract
Many nature materials have hierarchical structure, and its last cascade is
always on a molecule scale, e. g., double-stranded DNA, making the hierarchy
effective with minimal building blocks. Now artificial hierarchy can begin
with a nanoscale level to embody the material with remarkable and
fascinating properties which can be never achieved using non-hierarchical
structure. A strong desire to fabricate some biomimicking hierarchies from a
molecule level has been stimulating scientists. Herein we show that
molecular structure can be easily controlled by a long and narrow tube, and
self-assembly of macromolecules can be achieved to improve its crystallinity
with plenty of excellent properties. We anticipate this paper to be a
starting point for more sophisticated fabrication of fibers with
self-assembly of macromolecules.
