Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this research works, we have constructed novel self-assembled nanostructures of organic pi-electron systems and investigated their functional properties and nanosized effects. Thus, soft structures of Saturn-like complexes were employed as self-assembled mono- and bilayers between an organic solution and graphite to investigate rectification characteristics. Furthermore, we explored novel vapochromic behavior with vapor-induced quasi-reversible shape change of nanofibers of macrocyclic oligothiophenes.
