Abstract:
One-dimensional (1D) rods and 2D hexagonal plates of octachloroperylene diimide (Cl8-PTCDI) have been selectively prepared by controlling the growth kinetic processes. Both ensemble and single-particle spectroscopy clarify that 1D rods and 2D plates have shape dependent optical waveguiding properties.
