Covers the basics of supramolecular chemistry, including self-assembly processes and molecular interactions such as hydrogen bonding and cation-π interactions.
Explores self-organized growth at surfaces and covers instrumentation, destructive exposure, manipulation with SIM, nanostructures, and thin film growth.
Explores the design and synthesis of interlocked molecules like catenanes and rotaxanes, along with the structural and symbolic significance of knots and Borromean rings.
