Sideways arrangement : The self‐assembly of PPEEB liquid crystalline molecules at the air/water interface was investigated as a function of surface pressure. The self‐assembly is caused by a compact edge‐on molecular orientation, which gives rise to a range of different‐sized aggregate microstructures.
