Controllable construction of organic heterostructures is key to developing supramolecular materials with sophisticated functions. Herein, block heterostructures with controllable shape and dimension have been successfully constructed from one molecular pair of Ir(Ⅲ) complexes 1 and 2 in H₂O/CH₃CN. Different volume ratios of H₂O/CH₃CN led to controllable morphologies of assemblies 1 from nanofibers (1NF) to nanosheets (1NS). Through reasonable experimental design, both 1NF and 1NS could be used as seeds to trigger the heterogeneous nucleation-elongation of 2. Finally, unprecedented dual control on the length and width of supramolecular block copolymers from the same monomer pair was realized smoothly. The corresponding heterogeneous nucleation-elongation process was confirmed by time-dependent UV–vis absorption spectra and emission spectra. The components of each segment of the fibrous and sheet-like block copolymers were identified by TEM, SEM, and CLSM. The results reveal that the previously unappreciated solvation effect can serve as a powerful tool to control the morphologies of heterostructures.
