Piles of molecules : Self‐assembled nonamer arrays self‐organize into 3D aggregates (see scheme: L=“L‐shaped” porphyrin (corner piece), T=“T‐shaped” porphyrin (side piece), +=“cross‐shaped” porphyrin (center)). The size of the nanoscaled material on surfaces can be controlled from 1 nonamer to 50‐nm‐tall aggregates by chemistry, kinetics, and choice of surface.
