Abstract

Molecular assemblies are ubiquitous in nature as they are involved in the reversible
formation of a wide variety of complex biological structures. An understanding
of such molecular assemblies and the associated noncovalent interactions that
connect complementary interacting molecular entities to surfaces is of central
concern to structural biochemistry. Self-assembly on solid or colloidal surfaces
is also emerging as a new strategy in chemical synthesis, with the potential of
generating wholly synthetic structures for form or function with dimensions of
1–102 nm [1].
