In this talk, we summarize our recent efforts in designing hybrid nanomaterials with multifunctional responsive properties and guided mobility.  Among those to be considered are: i) ultrathin layer-by-layer polymer membranes for microcapsules with the ability for light and pH control of loading-unloading behavior and to regulate cell activity; ii) segmented gold-nikel nanorods tethered to slippery/sticking polymer coatings with the ability for controlled mobility and optical signature via external magnetic field.
