Advances in high-resolution and spin-resolved scanning tunnelling microscopy, as well as
atomic-scale manipulation, have enabled the bottom-up, atom-by-atom creation and …

Conspectus Molecular self-assembly (MSA) refers to spontaneous arrangement of
molecular building blocks into ordered structures governed by weak interactions. Due to its …

The dimensionality of an electronic quantum system is decisive for its properties. In one
dimension, electrons form a Luttinger liquid, and in two dimensions, they exhibit the …

Molecular Sierpiński triangles (STs), a family of elegant and well-known fractals, can be
prepared on surfaces with atomic precision. Up to date, several kinds of intermolecular …

Deposition of Bi on InSb (111) B reveals a striking Sierpiński-triangle (ST)-like structure in Bi
thin films. Such a fractal geometric topology is further shown to turn off the intrinsic electronic …

Fractals are patterns that are self-similar across multiple length-scales. Macroscopic fractals
are common in nature,–; however, so far, molecular assembly into fractals is restricted to …

Supramolecular tessellation is a newly emerging and promising area in supramolecular
chemistry because of its unique structural aesthetics and potential applications. Herein, we …

We investigate the Hall conductivity in a Sierpiński carpet, a fractal of Hausdorff dimension
df= ln (8)/ln (3)≈ 1.893, subject to a perpendicular magnetic field. We compute the Hall …

Tetrafunctionalized calix [4] resorcinarene cavitands commonly serve as supramolecular
scaffolds for construction of coordination-driven self-assembled capsules. However, due to …

Fractals are found in nature and play important roles in biological functions. However, it is
challenging to controllably prepare biomolecule fractals. In this study, a series of Sierpiński …
