Superior mechanical and optical properties of a heterogeneous library of cross-linked biomimetic self-assembling peptides

Self-assembling peptides (SAP) are ideal components for biomedical devices. However, their practical applications have been limited due to their intrinsic unstable, low-performance, and low-stress response given by non-covalent interactions involved in self-assembling. Herein, a library of SAPs feat...
