Supramolecular Architecture: Synthetic Control in Thin Films and Solids

Contains contributions from leading experts in the field describing strategies aimed toward the structural control of extended assemblies, from thin films to layered structures to three-dimensional systems. Discusses the characterization of potential novel electronic, optical, catalytic, and other physical properties of the new systems. Examines recent research in selective monolayer assemblies on electrode surfaces, functionalized pillared layered materials, and assemblies of conductors, sem…
