a AFM image of 100 nm pBDT–TA particles prepared from a mixture of 0.5 mg mL−1 BDT and 0.5 mg mL−1 TA. Scale bar is 500 nm. b Dynamic light-scattering data of the pBDT–TA particles with different sizes. c In situ growth of the pBDT–TA particles, as measured by SAXS. Inset: SAXS pattern of the pBDT–TA particles obtained after 12 h of reaction, post-purification. d EDX elemental mapping of the pBDT–TA particles. Scale bar is 50 nm. e 1H NMR spectra of the different components in the complexes. f, g Photograph and turbidity results of the pBDT–TA particles (100 nm) in different media. The error bars represent standard deviations (n = 3).
