Abstract

In the past, our researches focus on a multiscale/ hierarchical chemistry of organic devices suffering from a ten-year journey in the molecular world starting from the synthesis of fluorene via supramolecular approaches to intermolecular motifs, nanoscale aggregate, mesoscale orientation film as well as multilayered heterojunction in order to solve the technology bottleneck in organic/ plastic electronics. Although we developed the organic wide-bandgap semiconductors that cannot be comparable with inorganic performance, a whole node-network and systematic picture of the diverse and multiscale chemical world has been impressed that results in the belief of self-similar epistemology where microscopically molecular worlds could not be mysterious that just resemble human scale society ever since. Our target is to clone all the MEIC aspects of macroscopic worlds at molecular scale that is the effective pathway to activate molecular intelligence and consciousness. Herein, we start from the human-scale window grids as a typical static paradigm that you can see everywhere and that are around you in daily life. Chinese ancient window grids are especially aesthetic besides usefulness for life ever that also record and impress the traditional culture and philosophy of Fang Yuan. They inspired us differentiating from the well-known macrocycles and exploring the unprecedented nano-grid[n]arenes that include a huge family of various unit nanogrids, digrids, multigrids and polygrids via a bottom-up molecular installing nanotechnology (MINT). This kind of hierarchical nano-gridarenes and their nanopolymers will be a diverse platform of covalently multiscale and cross-scale meta-molecules that would be advanced nanomaterials with multiscale precision to face the challenge of plastic electronics and organo-robots in the background of the era of consciousness (EOC) from carbon to robot.
