Abstract
Different aspects of the structure formation for a class of molecules containing the diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole fragment are discussed. Starting from the bulk state with the ideal crystal lattice and the derivation of some common packing motifs the formation of liquid-crystalline states are described. This leads to the consideration of structures found in Langmuir-Blodgett films and those obtained by organic molecular beam deposition. These structures may again be compared to those for the bulk crystalline state. Common features as well as characteristic differences due to peculiarities of the individual molecular structures are discussed.
