Perylene bisimide dyes as versatile building blocks for functional supramolecular architectures

TL;DR: Perylene bisimide dyes and their organization into supramolecular architectures through hydrogen-bonding, metal ion coordination and pi-pi-stacking is discussed; further self-assembly leading to nano- and meso-scopic structures and liquid-crystalline compounds is also addressed.

Complex organic molecules at metal surfaces: bonding, organisation and chirality

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of the available literature for complex carboxylic acids, amino acids, anhydrides and ring systems, all deposited under controlled conditions onto defined metal surfaces.

Growth of early continental crust by partial melting of eclogite

TL;DR: Experimental evidence showing that partial melting of hydrous basalt in the eclogite facies produces granitoid liquids with major- and trace-element compositions equivalent to Archaean TTG is presented, suggesting that TTG magmatism may have taken place beneath granite-greenstone complexes developing along Archaean intraoceanic island arcs by imbricate thrust-stacking and tectonic accretion of a diversity of subduction-related terranes.

Pentacene Thin Film Growth

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the processes involved in pentacene film growth, emphasizing differences with respect to inorganic films and the influence of growth parameters such as substrate nature and temperature, the deposition rate, and the kinetic energy of the molecular beam on the structure and morphology of Pentacene films.

Self-Assembled Two-Dimensional Molecular Host-Guest Architectures From Trimesic Acid

TL;DR: In this paper, the adsorption of 1,3,5-Benzenetricarboxylic (Trimesic) acid (TMA) to a single crystal graphite surface has been studied under ultra high vacuum conditions.

Structure of perylene-tetracarboxylic-dianhydride thin films on alkali halide crystal substrates

TL;DR: The growth and crystal structure of epitaxial films of 3,4,9,10-perylene-tetracarboxylic-dianhydride (PTCDA), vacuum-deposited onto freshly cleaved (001) surfaces of NaCI and KCI, have been investigated with electron diffraction, electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction.

Structural aspects of oligothienyl series from X-ray powder diffraction data

TL;DR: The structures of the series of oligothienyls (T4-T5-T6) have been determined and refined from X-ray powder diffraction data using the Rietveld full-profile analysis as discussed by the authors.

NEXAFS investigations on ordered adsorbate layers of large aromatic molecules

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present data for highly symmetric and flat aromates without (perylene) or with reactive groups (PTCDA, PTCDI, NDCA) on various single crystal surfaces such as Ag(111), Ni(111) and Si(111).

Substrate-interaction, long-range order, and epitaxy of large organic adsorbates

TL;DR: In this paper, the structure of the PTCDA on Ag(1 1 1 ) was shown to be nearly identical to that of the β-modification of the pTCDA crystals, whereas on other substrates (e.g., Ge(1 0 0 )) a disordered interface was found.

STM investigations of PTCDA and PTCDI on graphite and MoS2. A systematic study of epitaxy and STM image contrast

TL;DR: In this article, perylene-3,4,9,10,10-tetra-carboxylic-dianhydride (PTCDA) and -di-imide(PTCDI) on graphite and MoS 2 have been imaged with scanning tunneling microscopy.
