Nanosciences and nanotechnologies using organic molecules rely strongly on bottom‐up fabrication. In particular, versatile methods for control of molecular arrangement at a solid surface, which would include the crucial self‐assembling processes of functional molecules in two‐dimensions, are anticip...
