Say cheeeese! The thixotropic processes that occur in a naphthalenediimide‐based organogel can be imaged in real time by TEM and AFM (see picture). The self‐assembled 1D fibers disintegrate under mechanical stress and undergo a self‐healing process during a resting time to reconstitute the 1D fibers.
