Title:
SELF-ASSEMBLED NANOSTRUCTURES WITH MACROSCOPIC POLAR ORDER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002044124
Kind Code:
A9
Abstract:
A three-dimensional molecular array on one of a conductor and semiconductor surface is disclosed. The array comprises at least one columnar stack comprising a plurality of substituted aromatic rings, wherein the aromatic rings of each columnar stack lie about parallel to the surface, wherein the columnar stack comprises a plurality of hydrogen bonds between substituents of different rings. Each stack may include aromatic amides in which the amido group is not coplanar with the aromatic core. A method for the synthesis of such aromatic amides is also disclosed. The aromatic amides may also be used to prepare pyro-ferro-, and piezo electric devices, as well as nonlinear optical devices and conductors, which comprise the columnar stacks described.
