a Molecular structures of 6HH, 6FF, and 6FH used in this study. b Schematic representation of self-assembly of 6HH to form a supramolecular nanosheet. Before our present study, we expected that 6FF would form a supramolecular nanosheet, similar to that formed by 6HH, but with a different aspect ratio as a result of differences in intermolecular interactions along the y-axis. c Schematic representation of a supramolecular circular nanosheet with a hole at its center formed from 6FF.
