Abstract
AbstractThe work performed by supramolecular polymers, such as microtubules and actin filaments, supports the life of the cell, and essentially involves fuel‐driven self‐assembly pathways. Developing fuel‐driven supramolecular polymerization processes is therefore crucial to the realization of mechanically active molecular systems. Here, we demonstrate supramolecular tubules with non‐equilibrium steady states that are fuelled by light. This dynamic supramolecular system features rapid cycles of self‐assembly and disassembly, at rates that appear fast enough to perform mechanical tasks in fluids effectively.
