| Abstract | A novel organic−inorganic hybrid with two polyhedral oligosilsesquioxane (POSS) nanoparticles covalently attached to perylene diimide (PDI) via a rigid 1,4-phenylene linkage (POSS-PDI-POSS) was designed and synthesized to examine the effect of bulky and well-defined nanoparticle side chains on the self-assembly behavior of PDI derivatives. The molecules were self-assembled directly by slow evaporation of a cast drop from solution in tetrahydrofuran to give rise to uniform crystalline nanobelts with dimensions typically of 0.2 mm × 1 μm × 50 nm. The phase behavior and crystal structure of the sample were then elucidated via a combination of different experimental techniques such as differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), selected area electron diffraction (SAED) in transmission electron microscopy (TEM), polarized light microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. One-dimensional (1D) WAXD and DSC revealed that only one crystalline phase exists. Based on the 2D WAXD fiber ... |
