AI Article Synopsis
- The research focuses on how the molecular structure of bent-core dimeric molecules affects the formation of helical nanofilaments (HNFs), particularly looking at different linkage lengths.
- A single domain of HNFs was synthesized using physical confinement in porous one-dimensional nanochannels made from anodic aluminum oxide films.
- Techniques like electron microscopy and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction were employed to analyze how the varying linkage lengths influence the creation of HNFs.
Article Abstract
We studied the correlation between the molecular structure and the formation of helical nanofilaments (HNFs) of bent-core dimeric molecules with varying linkage lengths. To obtain precise structural data, a single domain of HNFs was prepared under physical confinement using porous 1D nanochannels, made up of anodic aluminium oxide films. Electron microscopy and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction were used to elucidate the linkage length-dependent formation of HNFs.
