blue shift in the emission spectrum of the nanoparticles. This delineates that the
optoelectronic properties of CdS nanoparticles can be tuned upon deposition
on gel nanofibres.
Stupp and coworkers reported the pH-induced self-assembly and minerali-
sation of a peptide amphiphile (PA 38, Chart 8.18) to create a nanostructured
