Abstract
Patterning on the sub-5nm length scale is a contemporary challenge for further miniaturization of microelectronic circuits. Here, the first soft self-assembled triangular patterns are reported showing transitions between regular and two different kinds of isosceles (acute and obtuse angled) triangles on this length scale, formed by liquid crystalline honeycombs of polyphilic block molecules involving a fluorinated oligo(para-phenylene ethynylene) core. The type of formed triangular pattern depends on the degree and position of fluorination and on temperature. They are the first soft honeycombs combining tilted and nontilted organizations in a uniform nanostructure, where the tilted molecules in only one or two sides of the triangular prismatic cells dominate the shape and the size of the morphology.
