Ultrafine nanofibers fabricated from an arylene-ethynylene macrocyclic molecule using surface assisted self-assembly.

چکیده
Large area uniform nanofibers have been fabricated from a hexameric arylene-ethynylene macrocycle (1) through in situ self-assembly on a glass substrate during solvent evaporation. The fibril morphology is controlled by the solvophilic core of 1, in conjunction with the interfacial interactions between the side chains of 1 and the substrate.

Nanofibril self-assembly of an arylene ethynylene macrocycle.
Nanofibril structures have been fabricated from an arylene ethynylene macrocycle (AEM), which consists of a square frame corner-joined by four carbazole moieties. The fabrication was performed through a gelating process by cooling a warm, homogeneous solution in cyclohexane at high temperature (e.g., 100 degrees C) to room temperature. During the gelation, the molecules become organized, with o...
متن کاملMacrocyclic depolymerization of arylene-ethynylene copolymers: a dynamic combinatorial method.
A dynamic combinatorial approach for the synthesis of arylene ethynylene macrocycles (AEMs) from linear polymers is described. By using readily available carbazolyl-ethynylene copolymers as starting materials we obtained a number of novel macrocycles that would be difficult to prepare by traditional methods.
متن کاملFirst optically active molecular electronic wires.
[structure: see text]. The optically active molecular electronic wires (S)- and (R)-7 containing an oligo-arylene-ethynylene structure and a chiral 1,1'-binaphthyl unit are synthesized. These molecules are incorporated into nanowell devices by self-assembly on the gold surface. In the nanowell devices, the median currents from the molecules containing both S and R enantiomers are significantly ...
متن کاملSingle-molecule electrical studies on a 7 nm long molecular wire.
A self-assembled arylene-ethynylene molecular wire with a rigid 7 nm long backbone exhibits symmetrical current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and a single-molecule current of 0.35 +/- 0.05 nA at 0.3 V; these data are supported by theoretical calculations.
متن کاملExpedient fabrication of well-defined nanofibres from a macrocycle molecule: solution-controlled self-assemblyg
In this paper an expedient fabrication of uniform nanofibres from a planar arylene–ethynylene tetracycle molecule is reported. The long-range one-dimensional molecular arrangement, which is mainly due to the favourable π–π stacking between the planar shape-persistent molecules, is conducive to enhancement of the exciton migration along the long axis of nanofibres. Such extended exciton migratio...
