In recent years, much progress has been made in the fabrication of various functional molecular assemblies. These include organic polymer composites, CNT composites and C60 composites. In the past, they have been studied mainly with spectroscopy and diffractometers. However, the power of transmission electron microscopy has improved greatly and is now capable of providing nano-scale andnanoscopic resolution. Aimed at both newcomers and scientists already workingin the field, this book describes the microscopic characterization, mainly using TEM, of supramolecules. It starts with a brief history of the topic beforeintroducing the use of transmission electron microscopy for characterizing 1D, 2D and 3Ds materials. It then goes on to cover molecular assemblies, polymerassemblies and inorganic materials. INDICE: Introduction; Characterization of molecules by TEM; Molecular assemblies; Polymer assemblies; Inorganic materials; Conclusion
