The morphology and structure of 2,2':6',2″-ternaphthalene (NNN) deposited on muscovite mica(001) substrates was investigated by scanning force microscopy (SFM) and specular X-ray diffraction measurements. Consistently, both methods reveal the coexistence of needle-like structures with a {111} contact plane and {001} orientated island-like crystallites, which are built up by almost upright standing NNN molecules. Both orientations are characterized by a well-defined azimuthal alignment relative t ...[more]
