摘要:

Macrocycle-1 molecules can self-assemble into glassy state networks via van der Waals force and form many triangular nanopores in networks. The nanopores can be expressed by triangular tilings, which lead to a particularly rich range of arrangements. Moreover an interesting molecular rotation phenomenon was observed in the glassy networks.
