Directed Self-Assembly of Dipeptides to Form Ultrathin Hydrogel Membranes

The dipeptide amphiphile Fmoc-Leu-Gly-OH has been induced to self-assemble into thin surface-supported hydrogel gel films and gap-spanning hydrogel membranes. The thickness can be closely controlled, giving films/membranes from tens of nanometers to millimeters thick. SEM and TEM have confirmed that...
