Highly ordered monolayers of macrocyclic oligothiophene C[12]T (see Figure) can be used as veritable templates to epitaxially grow 3D nanoarchitectures with C 60 ‐fullerenes. Due to submolecularly resolved STM images, 1:1 complexes consisting of a ring‐shaped p‐type semiconductor (C[12]T) and a spherical n‐type semiconductor (C 60 ) can be investigated in terms of dynamics and complexation sites.
