Abstract

Regioisomere selbstorganisierende Moleküle bilden unterschiedliche null- und eindimensionale Nanostrukturen: Nanoringe bzw. Nanostäbe (siehe Bild) mit excitonischer Kopplung der Naphthalinchromophore vom J- bzw. H-Typ. In den flüssigkristallinen Zuständen liegen H-Brücken-gebundene Rosetten vor, was erklärt, wie die beobachteten Regioisomere zu unterschiedlichen Nanostrukturen mit charakteristischen excitonischen Wechselwirkungen führen.
