Abstract

We show that n-doping supramolecular assemblies built from perylene diimide units provides a means to modulate the structure–function properties of these materials. In addition to highlighting the design principles, a combination of spectroscopic and microscopic characterization correlates an increase in the free-exciton bandwidth with the formation of mesoscale hierarchical superstructures.
