摘要

Biohybrid molecules are a versatile class of materials for controlling the assembly behavior and functional properties of electronically active organics. In this work, we study the effect of the size of the pi-conjugated core on the assembly and phase behavior for a series of pi-conjugated peptides consisting of oligothiophene cores of defined lengths flanked by sequence-defined peptides (OTX, where X = 4, 5, 6 is the number of thiophene core units). Interestingly, we find that pi-conjugated peptides with relatively short OT4 cores assemble into ordered, high aspect ratio, one-dimensional (1D) structures, whereas pi-conjugated peptides with longer OT5 and OT6 cores assemble into disordered structures or lower aspect ratio 1D structures depending on assembly conditions. Phase diagrams for assembled materials are experimentally determined as a function of ionic strength, pH, temperature, and peptide concentration, revealing the impact of molecular sequence and pi-conjugated core length on assembled morphologies. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are further used to probe the origins of microscale differences in assembly that arise from subtle changes in molecular identity. Broadly, our work elucidates the mechanisms governing the assembly of pi-conjugated peptides, which will aid in efficient materials processing for soft electronic applications. Overall, these results highlight the complex phase behavior of biohybrid materials, including the impact of molecular sequence on assembly behavior and morphology.
