ABSTRACT:
The invention provides methods and compositions having one-dimensional nanoparticle chains. A one-dimensional nanoparticle chain can comprise a linear substantially non-crosslinked polymer having pendant groups and asymmetrically functionalized nanoparticles attached to the polymer through the pendant groups. Additionally, an asymmetrically functionalized nanoparticle can comprise a nanoparticle core having an outer surface, a primary group of first ligands attached to a substantially continuous primary region of the outer surface, and a secondary group of second ligands attached to a substantially continuous secondary region of the outer surface, such that the primary group of first ligands and the secondary group of second ligands comprise a different ligand population.
