Abstract: Scrolling of niobate nanosheets (NSs) in the presence of magnetic nanoparticle (NP) chains can lead to peapodlike structures. Surface functional groups on both the NSs and NPs are important in directing the assembly and subsequent NS convolution. The dimensions of the peapods are typically dictated by the diameters of the NPs and the length of the NP chains.
