摘要
Aromatic carboxylic acid self-assembly has been a hot research field for many scientists due to its strong coordination ability and flexible coordination mode.The hydrogen bond formed between aromatic carboxylic acids is a strong intermolecular force and has directionality and saturation,which plays a very important role in the self-assembly and regulation of aromatic carboxylic acids.In this review,we introduce surface organization formed by aromatic carboxylic acids with the aid of scanning tunneling microscopy(STM).These two-dimensional structures include molecular templates,host-guest systems,and photo-isomerization structures.We also emphasize the thermodynamics and dynamics,which are important research topics of current and future study.
