Abstract | Cited by

Using theoretical modeling, we demonstrate the self-assembly of functional organic molecules into 2D fractal aggregates resembling the Sierpiński triangle (ST). It is shown for the first time that the fractal self-assembly can be realized in one-component systems comprising K- and A-shaped tectons whose arms meet to form chiral nodes with directional intermolecular bonds.
