Collapsed polymer-directed synthesis of multicomponent coaxial-like nanostructures

Multicomponent colloidal nanostructures have topologically dependent chemical and physical properties, but are difficult to synthesise with high order complexity. Here, Nie and co-workers show a general and scalable route to synthesise such structures with unique coaxial-like construction.
