Thermally tunable selective formation of self-assembled fibers into two orthogonal directions in oriented liquid-crystalline smectic templates

Abstract

We demonstrate the formation of grid-type (crossed perpendicular to each other) fibrous assemblies of low-molecular-weight gelators in aligned liquid-crystalline smectic templates. In the template of layered structures, a gelator forms oriented fibers with one directional and two orthogonal directional (grid-like) alignment depending on the order of layered structures.
