Abstract :
Light emitting single crystalline organic nanofibers with extraordinary morphologic properties are generated via molecular beam epitaxy from tailored molecular building blocks. The designed optoelectronic properties of the molecules are reflected in the properties of the resulting nanoaggregates and those aggregates are multiplied via bottom up self assembly. Via soft lift off the optimized nanofibers can be transferred to arbitrary new substrates and thus integrated into new advanced photonic devices. As an example for the feasibility of this new technology, custom-made nano frequency converters are discussed
