| Outline of Research at the Start |
Ordered two dimensional (2D) crystal structure of chiral polymers on solid substrates designated as “nano-pattern” will be fabricated by the self-assembly of helical poly(diphenylacetylene)s (PDPAs), which is still very challenging. For this purpose, high molecular weight PDPAs will be synthesized by using new catalysts and the fabricated novel “nano-pattern” will be characterized thoroughly by atomic force microscopy (AFM). Finally, the proposed materials will be used for various sophisticated applications like precision polymerization, asymmetric catalysis etc.

| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
For the fabrication of ordered two dimensional (2D) crystal structure of chiral macromolecules on solid substrates through structural characterization of helical polymers are essential. To address the above issues, the helical structures of poly(diphenylacetylene)s (PDPAs) bearing optically active substituents linked through amide bonds and with a helicity memory have been visualised directly using high resolution atomic force microscopy (AFM). The PDPAs self-assembled into a short-range, ordered 2D monolayer on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) substrates upon exposure to solvent vapour, whose helical pitch and handedness (right- and left-handed) has been revealed for the first time with molecular resolution.
