In Prof. MacLachlan¿s research program in supramolecular materials, he strives to control the interactions between molecules and ions to build complex structures with function. Inspired by the complexity of biological structures (e.g., cells, tissues), he will use natural nanomaterials isolated from plants and animals to construct new materials with spiraling porous structures. As a virtue of the unique structures of these materials ¿ their porosity, conductivity, and helicity ¿ they will have exciting properties. For example, they will have iridescence that resembles a beetle shell. The new materials to be developed may be useful in reflective coatings, supercapacitors, batteries, and sensors.

在麦克拉克伦·S教授的超分子材料研究项目中，他致力于控制分子和离子之间的相互作用，以构建具有功能的复杂结构。受生物结构(如细胞、组织)复杂性的启发，他将使用从动植物中分离出来的天然纳米材料来构建具有螺旋状多孔结构的新材料。由于这些材料的独特结构(孔隙率、导电性和螺旋度)，它们将具有令人兴奋的特性。例如，它们将具有类似于甲壳虫壳的彩虹。即将开发的新材料可能会用于反光涂层、超级电容器、电池和传感器。
