The fabrication of supramolecular nanoobjects from photonically and electronically active dye compounds is of paramount importance to meet the growing demand for miniaturization in electronics and photonics. However, intermolecular electronic interactions between dye components are usually very strong, and therefore the precise control of selfassembled architectures in nanoscale regime remains a challenging topic of research. In this study, self-assemblies of various functional dyes (azobenzene, merocyanine, perylene bisimide and π-conjugated oligomers) are controlled by highly-directional “multiple hydrogen bonds” as used for DNA base pairing. This approach enables us to create diverse highly-organized dye nanostructures with new functional properties.
