Co-crystallization is an efficient way of molecular crystal engineering to tune the electronic properties of organic semiconductors. In this work, we synthesized anthracene-4,8-bis(dicyanomethylene)4,8-dihydrobenzo[1,2-b:4,5-b’]-dithiophene (DTTCNQ) single crystals as a template to...

The self-assembling is a spontaneous progression through which objects of nanophase/molecules materialize into prepared collections. Several biomolecules can interact and assemble into highly structured supramolecular structures, for instance, proteins and peptides, with fibrous scaffolds, helical ribbons, and many other functionalities. Various self-assembly systems have been established, from copolymers in blocks to three-dimensional (3D) cell culture scaffolds. Another advantage of self-assembly is its ability to manage a large variety of materials, including metals, oxides, inorganic salts, polymers, semiconductors, and various organic semiconductors. The most basic self-assembly of 3D nanomaterials is three primary forms of nanostructured carbon-based materials that perform a critical role in the progress of modern nanotechnologies, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene, and fullerene. This review summarized important information on the 3D self-assembly nanostructure, such as peptide hydrogel, graphene, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and fullerene for application in gene delivery, cancer therapy, and tissue engineering.

The supramolecular structure of organic semiconductors (OSCs) is the key parameter controlling their performance in organic electronic devices, and thus methods for controlling their self-assembly in the solid state are of the upmost importance. Recently, we have demonstrated the co-assembly of p- and n-type organic semiconductors through a three-point hydrogen-bonding interaction, utilizing an electron-rich dipyrrolopyridine (P2P) heterocycle which is complementary to naphthalenediimides (NDIs) both in its electronic structure and H bonding motif. The hydrogen-bonding-mediated co-assembly between P2P donor and NDI acceptor leads to ambipolar co-crystals and provides unique structural control over their solid-state packing characteristics. In this paper we expand our discussion on the crystal engineering aspects of H bonded donor–acceptor assemblies, reporting three new single co-crystal X-ray diffraction structures and analyzing the different packing characteristics that arise from the molecular structures employed. Particular attention is given toward understanding the formation of the two general motifs observed, segregated and mixed stacks. Co-assembly of the donor and acceptor components into a single, crystalline material, allows the creation of ambipolar semiconductors where the mutual arrangement of p- and n-conductive channels is engineered by supramolecular design based on complementary H bonding.
