Abstract

We have demonstrated that self-assembled nanofibers can convert into a chiral state influnenced by external stimuli. This helicity convertion of the nonchiral assembly realizes in a reversible way on heating. Notably, this reversible nonchiral-chiral switching is accompanied by a transition between extended and contracted states in the elongated nanofibers.
