a Schematic representation of the uptake of CuPc-X (X = Cl) by (CHA)n through (i) grinding, (ii) water addition, (iii) centrifugation, and (iv) filtration. UV–visible spectra and photographs (H2O, room temperature, 1.0 mM based on the amphiphiles) of b (CHA)n•(CuPc-Cl)m, (CHA)n•(SubPc)m, and products after treatment of (CHA)n with CuPc-X (X = H, F), c (CHA)n•(C60)m and (AA)n•(C60)m, and d (AA)n•(CNT)m and products after treatment of (CHA)n with CNT.
