Single Molecular Arrays of Phthalocyanine Assembled with Nanometer Sized Alkane Templates

摘要

It is demonstrated that single molecular arrays of phthalocyanines (Pc) can be assembled with templates of 2-dimensional alkane lamella of nanometer scale.By optimizing stoichiometry of the binary mixture,large arease of uniform single molecular arrays can be formed in submicrometer scale.This work provides a molecular scale illustration of self-assembly of binary molecular systems based on van der Waals interaction,and a method to design and assemble single molecular arrays with submicrometer length scale.
