Included in the meeting : The specific inclusion of adamantane by cyclodextrins is used to direct nanocrystals to self‐assemble into macroscopic monolayers at the water/oil interface. The use of functionalized cyclodextrins allows stepwise interfacial self‐assembly of different nanocrystals into macroscopic heterogeneous multilayers (see picture).
