Organic nanostructures : synthesis and characterization of 9,10-diphenylanthracene nanostructures

Four shapes of 9,10-diphenylanthracene (DPA) nanostructures, namely: microoctahedral, nanorods, nanowires and nanospheres have been synthesized via surfactant-assisted self-assembly process. The morphologies of the obtained nanostructures were observed under scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and fi...
