Self-Organized Discotic Liquid Crystals for High-Efficiency Organic Photovoltaics

TL;DR: Self-organization of liquid crystalline and crystalline-conjugated materials has been used to create, directly from solution, thin films with structures optimized for use in photodiodes, demonstrating that complex structures can be engineered from novel materials by means of simple solution-processing steps and may enable inexpensive, high-performance, thin-film photovoltaic technology.

Controlling molecular deposition and layer structure with supramolecular surface assemblies

TL;DR: This work uses hydrogen bonding to guide the assembly of two types of molecules into a two-dimensional open honeycomb network that then controls and templates new surface phases formed by subsequently deposited fullerene molecules, and finds that the open network acts as aTwo-dimensional array of large pores of sufficient capacity to accommodate several large guest molecules.
