• colloidal form have been demonstrated to be important for bioimaging [39], sensors [40], cell photodynamic therapy [41] and biomimetic catalysis [42]. By growing porphyrin-based nanograss films directly on substrate surfaces, we expect that this new interface could be used in the fabrication of integrated
