Abstract: | Gelation provides a unique medium, which often induces organization of molecules resulting in the modulation of their optical, morphological and electronic properties thereby opening a new world of fascinating materials with interesting physical properties at nano- meso- and macroscopic levels. Supramolecular gels based on linear π-systems have attracted much attention due to their inherent optical and electronic properties which find application in organic electronics, light harvesting and sensing. They exhibit reversible properties due to the dynamic nature of noncovalent forces. As a result, studies on such soft materials are currently a topic of great interest. Recently, researchers are actively involved in the development of sensors and stimuli-responsive materials based on self-assembled π-systems, which are also called smart materials. The present thesis is divided into four chapters |
