Nature uses self-assembly for building supramolecular materials possessing fascinating
properties (self-healing, adaptive, reconfigurable and responsive) that are fundamental for …

Supramolecular polymers, formed via noncovalent self-assembly of elementary monomers,
are extremely interesting for their dynamic bioinspired properties. In order to understand …

The absorption and fluorescence spectra of chiral alkylamide-substituted pyrene derivatives
(R-1 and S-1) in the solution phase were consistent with the formation of N–H··· O═ …

Two families of C3‐symmetrical triarylamine‐trisamides comprising a triphenylamine‐or a tri
(pyrid‐2‐yl) amine core are presented. Both families self‐assemble in apolar solvents via …

This study demonstrates how simple structural modification of a prototypical organic
ferroelectric molecule can be used to tune its key ferroelectric properties. In particular, it is …

The combination of switchable dipolar side groups and the semiconducting core of the
newly synthetized C3-symmetric benzotrithiophene molecule (BTTTA) leads to an ordered …

Supramolecular polymers exemplify the need to employ several computational techniques
to study processes and phenomena occuring at varied length and time scales. Electronic …

Ferroelectrics find broad applications, eg in non-volatile memories, but the switching kinetics
in real, disordered, materials is still incompletely understood. Here, we develop an …

This paper presents the reversible transformation between two polymorphs of a hexacatenar
liquid crystal (1) with distinct fluorescence colors at room temperature (RT). This method …

The rational design of supramolecular polymers that can adapt or respond in time to specific
stimuli in a controlled way is interesting for many applications, but this requires …
