✦ Synopsis

wandte Chemie", single molecules were forced to arrange in stable molecular chains and regular pairs on a surface by a self-assembly process at roomtemperature. At present, no other technological method is capable of arranging that complex supramolecular entities, made of several hundred atoms, in such a precise and repetitive manner.
