Abstract:Organic molecular beam deposition (OMBD) of para-hexaphenylene (p6P) on polycrystalline platinum results in the formation of unique nanoaggregates, predominantly as nanofibers and nanoribbons. These aggregates exhibit distinct morphological properties, as revealed by atomic force microscopy (AFM). Grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXD) confirms the p6P herringbone structure as partially oriented aggregates with a bias of previously observed contact planes parallel to the substrate. The optical properties o… Show more
