Abstract
Interfacial molecular nanoscience is an interdisciplinary field where physics, chemistry and material science merge together. It is of great interest to explore novel molecule-based nanomaterials using design principles in analogy to inorganic solid-state compounds, targeting comparable or even superior functionalities and properties. The fabrication route is based on bottom-up supramolecular engineering [1,2] and on-surface synthesis [3], aiming towards molecular-level control of complex matters [4]. The physical and chemical properties of molecular nanomaterials are characterized using complementary surface science techniques [5]. Five topics will be addressed to demonstrate the potential of such design principle.
