The hierarchical self-assembly of l-tyrosine substituted naphthalenediimide has been explored in solution by NMR spectroscopy and in the solid-state by atomic force microscopy. Spontaneous non-covalent polymerisation led to the formation of a three-dimensional fibre-like supramolecular polymer with n-type semiconducting properties.
